Did you know your shop is mentioned in the book Writing Down the Bones by Natalie Goldberg, the chapter titled The Power of Detail.

The chocolates here are top notch! The truffles, toffee, and buttercream are all superb. My favorite are the Irish cream truffles! It is expensive though, good to have on special occasions, not as a daily purchase.

Chocolate truffles! Chocolate buttercreams! Caramels! Wish I could afford to get one of each flavor. They are closing down the restaurant portion and expanding the candy section. This is the candy you let melt in your mouth as long as possible.

My family and I are really going to miss the restaurant after going there for breakfast over the last 50 plus years. My mom, Marcy Randall worked there as a teenager in1950’s and has loved eating there ever since. She still tells us stories of the past every time we come home from Texas. Our family, especially my mom will miss going to the restaurant on a weekly basis. Thank you for keeping the candy business so we can continue to create memories in the future!

This place has been here 100 years for a reason: they are fantastic! Ive had chocolate in Belgium, France and Germany. Those countries dont compare. Costas is the best and they deliver by mail!

Costas has become home for some of our family traditions! The food here is fantastic. The candy here is outta this world delicious. This gem of a restaurant has specific hours for candy service and food service so just be sure to call ahead to make sure they are serving food! If you can make it in for a lunch sometime, do it! You wont be disappointed!!

Smell of homemade chocolates 😋

Friendly workers! Amazing food! FABULOUS Candy! You would totally be missing out if you did not come here! Definitely worth the visit! The owners are the nicest people on Earth! So what I am trying to say is Go to Costas!

Fantastic history and chocolate. The key lime truffle is our favorite.

Best chocolate in Southern Minnesota! The restaurant is excellent, as well, with good burgers, sandwiches and wraps. Not good for large groups, but perfect for couples.

This candy store has been providing Southern Minnesota with the best hand dipped chocolates and other goodies for 100 years. Best in the business.

Great diner like food! Breakfast or lunch, both are great! Friendly waitresses! Favorite place for a good cup of chicken noodle soup

Grant & Julie have a great team of employees. Fantastic breakfast! I love their omelettes. Im not wicked big on chocolate but from what I hear its pretty incredible & if youre a chocolate fan - you definitely should stop by and check it out.

You just cant find a better burger n fries combo anywhere. It just isnt possible. Wash it down with a cherry coke made the right way....and a caramel for dessert....Ive died n gone to heaven!!

I have gone to this restaurant multiple times and i have never been disappointed. The staff and owners are always very polite and the food is great. I love the chocolates. I would go there for the caramel alone, but this place has it all.

Delicious candy!! Our son and daughter i law sent me a box of Costas Candy and it was delicious!!

Good food and even better candies I would eat there every day if they were open for dinner. Especially love their Philly Cheese steak on pita bread (pita part isnt on their menu but they are more than willing to accommodate my request) and their soups and chilli are awesome. Never been disappointed.

Local candy maker and restaurant in continuous operation for a century! Delicious chocolates and decent diner-style lunches make Costas a favorite for every generation here in Owatonna.

Great food! Wonderful service! Delicious candy!

Had a very nice easy breakfast here with a good friend. Nice company, good coffee.

Quaint old style restaurant, nice surroundings, very pleasant, and right down town. I love to get some home-made candies before I leave too. Nice people. Miss the Boosalis.

Great small town cafe and excellent chocolates. Worth the small drive off the interstate. Great food and reasonable.

To be celebrating 100 years of business youve got too be doing something right. Good food, great service, delicious homemade soups and dont forget the candy.

This is a wonderful, family operated resturant with excellent food at very fair prices! Plus you can treat yourself to some dessert with one of their in-house made candies!

Good food. Nice service. Great prices. Also chocolate...

Your gyros were awesome and everything tasted amazing. Booths were comfortable and I didnt feel in a rush to go. It was a all around good resuraunt.

Easily the best breakfast in Owatonna. Delicious diner food, good atmosphere, and amazing handmade truffles and candies. Also, they make one of my very favorite plates of biscuits and gravy.

Nice place to catch up on your Owatonna history!

The best food, great service. Delightful small cafe. Their chocolates were so delicious.

Love the key lime truffles!

Great service and food was amazing! The candies are sooo good! Must try!

Great breakfast and delicious chili!! Excited to get home and try some chocolates!!!

Great milk shakes and you cant ever go wrong with the gyro either.

I had the lamb gyro and my friend got the chicken gyro. Both were good but mine came with half the toppings?Little pricey for the quantity and quality.

Great food (especially chocolates and milkshakes and chocolate milkshakes) and cute location. Great for comfort food.

The prices are a bit high for breakfast, $8 for an omlettte with hasbrown. A breakfast for two will be over $25 with tip. The decor is nostalgic and stuck in 1980. The food was good but very basic. Service was quick and good.

Good food...friendly service....easy access....bathrooms not handicapped

I had a grilled cheese with tomato on sourdough with fries for lunch, and it was excellent. The toffee and key lime truffles are wonderful, too.

Great service, excellent food, yummy chocolates!

Excellent burgers, sandwiches and chocolates. Leave room for the chocolate. It gets busy at lunch time.

Attentive service and polite, but a little pricey for a breakfast.

Great food and service! Love this hometown restaurant!

Great food, wait staff is awesome. Truffles for dessert!!!

Amazing people great food awesome candy.

Best, freshest candy around! And wonderful Greek salads.

It was nice and the food was good.

Mostly booth style seating, so not great for a group. Food was ok, kind of greasy spoon style, but the candies were quite good.

Love their chocolate covered caramels and the buttercreams. I get these for my family every year for Christmas!
