Opened in October 2012, the restaurant, in the Whittier neighborhood of Minneapolis, features small plates and an extensive late-night menu.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a chef-driven restaurant focusing on high-quality, local, sustainable ingredients, trying to do interesting food, but keep the prices accessible to the community,\u201d says Johnston, who met McCabe-Johnston during her first year at Augsburg.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe met at Augsburg, and fell in love in Urness Tower,\u201d said Johnston. After Augsburg, \u201cher dad put me to work in a bar, so I bartended, using my history degree quite well behind the bar, and my sociology studies helped in that as well. My philosophy and religion minors didn\u2019t hurt either! My liberal arts education definitely helped me throughout life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Nightingale is open Tuesday-Saturday from 4 pm-2am, and open for brunch on Sundays from 10 am-2pm.
