The Twin Cities are great, especially when it comes to restaurants. But don’t discount small-town Minnesota. Little towns across the state play host to little-known spots that will knock your socks off with quaint charm and amazing food. Don’t believe us? Head down to Onamia, Minnesota, for a cozy cafe called Cedarwood Family Restaurant. Small-town restaurants don’t get much better than this. Take a look:

Cedarwood Family Restaurant is an old-school spot in the small town of Onamia, Minnesota. It's right in Onamia's sleepy downtown.

Despite Onamia's small town, Cedarwood Family Restaurant still draws plenty of visitors. Maybe it's the old-fashioned vibe or maybe it's the great food. Or, most likely, it's both!

Inside, the restaurant is what you might expect from a small-town restaurant. There are small knickknacks lining the walls and simple decor.
