Alma: what do users think?

C T: This is a quaint restaurant with a high-end tasting menu. You start your journey at the concierge booth, which also doubles as hotel check-in. They escort you through large doors and seat you immediately, assuming you made reservations in advance. Our server was very attentive to our needs and explained the pairing for each of the courses we had. The food was definitely a journey for you palate. The caliber of the kitchen is topnotch! The kitchen is open and right next to the dining area, and we didn't hear a peep out of the chefs. That just shows you the quality of professionalism they have. Smooth and running like a well-oiled machine. I would highly recommend celebrating a special occasion with Alma!

Nicole Gislason: We had the most wonderful experience for my sister's 30th birthday dinner. It was a curated menu where the plates just came out in courses. You let the server know what dietary needs you had at the beginning... We started out with some great cocktails and then a wonderful recommended wine. We loved every single part of this meal and experience. Do not miss this!

Demi: what do users think?

Ryan O John: Top 3 meals I’ve ever had. Creative pairings, stellar raw ingredient quality, locally sourced, and fabulously curated textures and tastes. On top of that the vibe is just purely welcoming and friendly.Dietary restrictions: They can seemingly accommodate anything with advance notice.

Felix Gill: It is a small kitchen environment. Seats about 25 people max. We got the eleven course Whitney meal. Great presentation.Had a lovely time.Parking: Use the valet.

Vitor Yamaoto: You walk in into a small yet inviting waiting area with a small bar. If you got the pre drink package, you get a small menu of crafted cocktails or you can ask the bartender to make your own. After your introductory drink, they take you to the dining area which is a U shaped are with the kitchen in the center. You get an amazing experience from start to finish with 7 to 11 courses; you won't leave hungry. The wine pairing is carefully selected for a perfect match to each dish. The food is TOP NOTCH. They way the flavors come together in your pallet is really an experience you need to have for yourself.

Bethany Charlsen: We’re hard to impress, fussy and difficult. This place continues to top our list of the best in the Twin Cities and even US/worldwide.Yes, it’s deserving of at least two Michelin stars. The ambience, cuisine, and staff are remarkable.Yes, you might need to save up for a dinner here although the Barrington option offered Wednesday, Thursdays and Sundays is lovely and a steal at $95/pp.Yes, every time you go the experience will be a bit different yet still the same in some ways with those gooey, warm Rice Krispie treats at the end as an example.Yes, the staff is passionate and eager to share their expertise and showcase their knowledge with you and….Yes, you will feel cared about and valued as a guest. Every time.

Anna Torgerson: Hell yeahRecommended dishes Truffles, Wagyu Beef Recommendation for vegetarians Highly recommend …

Linda McLoon: I love to cook, and I love dining out. I love to try new foods and foods cooked in different ways. I find the complex mixtures of ingredients to make a totally new dish fun and exciting. If this is you, you will adore Demi. The food is sublime, the ambience serene, and the service is impeccable and joyful.From the moment we stepped inside, we felt welcomed. We started with a warm broth made from roasted beets. Light and warming. The first course was a triple. The sweet potato tart with pickled kombu, nori, black truffle, and miso was absolutely scrumptious. The other two small bites were lovely, but, oh my, that sweet potato tart! These were followed with a lovely fresh scallop crudo, beautifully plated. I adore foie gras, and the Demi version was slices of a terrine served with prune and preserved lemon. The foie gras was smooth; this was really yummy.The fish course was sturgeon, interestingly served with rutabaga puree and little slices of crispy rutabaga. This really worked.The pasta dish was so delicious, and I mean really, really delicious. This is the type of pasta you think about for days. These were chestnut agnolotti, served with celery root, cognac cream, and pomegranate. I could have eaten a huge bowl of these. A triumph in flavor and texture. Mmmmm!The duck and beef courses were also delicious, cooked perfectly, with perfect accomplishments. I had to laugh at the cheese course, as it was actually a cheese tartlet, with endive marmalade and pine nuts. These were perfect.We had a delicious sorbet palate cleanser, and a very interesting sunchoke bavaroise and ice cream dessert. And you leave with a little box of candies. This is a nice touch.Eating here is an adventure in deliciousness. Every dish is beautifully plated on interesting service ware. Your water glass never goes unfilled. You are served at your own pace. The staff is clearly and justly proud of what they are serving you.I have eaten at some magnificent restaurants in Copenhagen, Barcelona, France, and this absolutely meets the standard of those Michelin starred restaurants - and better than some.It is not cheap. You know what you are getting into when you reserve your table. However, the food is divine.If you like to know what you are going to eat before you get it, this is not the place for you. If sturgeon with rutabaga puree gives you pause, this is not the place for you. If, however, you are willing to put your meal in some very capable hands, and don't bat an eye at eating smoked white fish, broccolini, and caviar, you will fall in love with Demi.

Gabriela Seidel: put it, made me not miss wine.Thank you Demi for taking such good care of us and for giving us a night to remember!

Carolyn Livingston: Just go. It's perfect. Staff was amazingly friendly and made the evening for us.

Jeremy: Weee! That was fun. No idea what the second seating is doing, our reservation was at 5:30, didn't get home till after 9. Go early, it's an adventure. Even the bathroom was meditative and romantic. Not sure what else to say about it. It's a great experience. All the dishes were fantastic but for me the vegetables really shined. I know a full 11 course vegetarian menu would never sell but they could pull it off.

Chris Valenty: A truly memorable dining experience, definitely lives up to the high praise. We had been waiting for a while to visit Demi, we had seen the stellar reviews for a few years now. The dining experience is very immersive with the open kitchen format. Being able to speak to the chefs as they deliver each course, really helped us understand the creativity and depth of flavors in each dish. As a fan of the Netflix Show “Chef’s Table”, this is first dining experience I’ve had in Minneapolis that felt like a world-class fine dining experience like you would see on Chef’s Table.

Spoon and Stable: what do users think?

Robyn: One of the best restaurants Ive tried in Minneapolis! The menu might seem pretty ordinary but everything was very goodRecommended dishes Dry-Aged Duck Breast …

Jonathan Robinson: Absolutely phenomenal food and experience. Our server Louis was beyond amazing as he took the time to explain the dishes, cocktails, and so much more. Hat's off!Speaking of dishes, the bison tartare was increibly good, but we were blown away by the flavor of the duck ragu in the Torchietti. We had it made gluten-free to accommodate my wife's dietary needs, and the pasta was still delicious! We didn't stop there, adding an order of the pork chop for me and Alaskan halibut for my wife. The flavor profile on the pork chop dish was insanely big, bold, and wonderful. It was such a contrast to the halibut, which was also wonderful but much more delicate. Both were great. We were stuffed. There was no room for dessert, but since we had let it be known we were out celebrating a special event, we were not to leave without a wonderful little celebration treat. It was much appreciated!Our seating was at the Chef's Counter, and it couldn't have been more perfect. It gave us witness to all the incredible work going on in the kitchen as well as all the dishes that were getting prepped. TheDietary restrictions: My wife is gluten-free, and not only do they accommodate this with some of their dishes they go above and beyond to communicate between the waiter and kitchen about the dietary needs. This shows up starting with bread basket modifications, moves into extra tasting bites supplied to us from the head chef, and follows through to all our entrees and special desserts. Phenomenal staff coordination and cooperation.

Raquel Tabor: Recommended dishes Pot Roast

Akshaya Bhagavathula: My recent dinner at Spoon and Stable in Minneapolis was an experience that truly stood out in my culinary adventures. This beautifully restored horse stable turned restaurant offers a warm and inviting ambiance that set the tone for a remarkable evening.The menu, curated by Chef Gavin Kaysen, is a testament to his expertise and commitment to showcasing the best of Midwest ingredients with a French twist. We started with the foie gras terrine, which was rich and perfectly balanced, and it became an instant favorite at our table. For my main course, I chose the duck breast, which was tender, juicy, and cooked to perfection, accompanied by a side that complemented the duck without overshadowing it.What really made our meal unforgettable was not just the food but the service. The staff was attentive without being intrusive, knowledgeable about the menu, and genuinely enthusiastic about their work. They recommended excellent wine pairings that elevated our dining experience.The dessert rounded off the evening on a high note, with creative and delightful options that were as beautiful to look at as they were to taste. The ambiance, service, and exquisite cuisine made Spoon and Stable a dining destination that I can't recommend highly enough. Whether for a special occasion or a treat-yourself night out, this restaurant promises an evening that’s both enchanting and satisfying.

Hell's Kitchen Inc.: what do users think?

Jalen Bell: So when I walked past this place, my first thought was Gordon Ramsey’s famous tv show. Turns out they’re a local business, no affiliation. The burger was absolutely fantastic! Well seasoned, temperature just right, and it had bacon and tangy sauce that was similar to 1000 island. Bonus: They branded the bun with the logo which I thought was cool. Ordered cheesecake for dessert. A bit pricy but well worth the quality of food. I’d def eat here again when I’m in town.

Gina M: Mariann was the BEST!! This was our 1st time here and she was so nice and patient.Be careful when you bite into the inferno burger!! The cheese went everywhere 😭 Good burger though.Warm Greens Grain bowl with Mojo pork added. Walleye bites for an appetizer and a peanut butter cup, ice cream and a complimentary brownie from the staff. They even have a photo booth. We had a great time here.

Nancy Anderson: Great experience. The mimosa bar and the bloody mary bar was really fun and very good. The food was amazingParking: Ramp was easy to access the elevator right to Hell's Kitchen

Stephanie Hodges: We held our sellers dinner here for approx 35 people for a private event, using the far side pub. Not only was the atmosphere amazing the food and the staff and the ease of booking and follow up was amazing. I received so many thank yous and this was amazing and the perfect set up, food and drinks and Vanessa and her team were perfect! Need a place for your company/team outing? This was it!

SHARESHA GREEN: Atmosphere: 5/5

Natalie Peterson: Had the fish & chips and my friend got the ham & pear crisp sandwich, we both had garlic Parmesan fries and shared the brownie dessert. SO. GOOD.Dietary restrictions: Offers gluten-free options on the menu!

George Waggoner: Poutine with bison was excellent.

The Capital Grille: what do users think?

Walter D.: Food: Both our stakes were cooked to perfection, the bread plate is something to look forward to and the recommended wine was perfectly matched to our entrees.Service: The service it self will make you want to come back, the minute you walk in you are being greeted and complimented. Every person that we spoke to wished us a happy anniversary, they even had heart confetti spread out on our table

Nora Hyde: . I ordered Lobster & Crab Cakes, Lobster Mac & Cheese, and the Tenderloin & Lobster entree. Incredible quality of food and service. Highly recommend.

Jackie Kramer: We both just retired so went to the Capital grille for a celebratory dinner and it did not disappoint!!! Angel was our server and he was outstanding! Our food was prepared perfectly and they gave us a lovely cheesecake and flourless chocolate cake with fruit since we were first time customers. Don’t waste your time going elsewhere- this is our new favorite special restaurant. Thank you Angel!!! You made our night even more special!

Nicole Schauer Wagner: Great service. Great food. Great atmosphere. Our friend Mike Lopac in the bar was amazing!

Fhima’s Minneapolis: what do users think?

John Wood: Went here for dinner with my wife and brother. We were seated promptly and service was very attentive. The vibe of this place is really interesting, especially the décor.The adult beverage list is extensive and reasonably priced.My brother and I ordered the Wagu Butter Burger - 10/10! Maybe tope 3 burgers I've ever had in my life. It was perfection. The fries were also a cut above.My wife's Mediterranean sampler tasted fine, but she said my burger was better.No complaints at all. I'll be back!

Steve Mcguire: Amazing establishment! Felt like I walked into a Vegas restaurant and but this place put them to shame!! The drinks were amazing, all the staff were beyond kind and friendly, the bartenders we're more like artists with fruit, and the food... man... I could write for days but alas I'm not a writer for the star and I have my own job to get back to 🤣🙏💪🙌

Ishmam Ahmed: Fhima’s blends flavorful food options with a unique, glitzy experience. Great place for a birthday, date, or gathering—and right down the street from First Ave. The espresso martini here was sublime, as was the Moroccan mint with cucumber vodka—seriously, the first sips here will knock socks off. The lamb cigars and chicken tagine are definitely great moves here—I highly recommend both. The curtained booths make for a special experience. For a restaurant serving Spanish and Moroccan food, I was expecting warmer colors to be part of the interior design. The green lighting and polished surfaces everywhere were missing a sense of warmth—giving major Slytherin common room vibes the whole time. Coupled with the fact that service was a bit spotty at times, these are minor complaints next to the splendid food and drinks.

Nonya Bidness: This spot was amazing. We went for dinner. The flavor/seasoning of the wagyu steak was perfect and it was cooked perfectly. The finger potatoes were spicy but very very good. Service was spot on and the atmosphere was very chill and relaxing. The creme brûlée was average but I can’t hold that against them. I would absolutely recommend this spot.

Andre Gueziec: I recently dined at Fhima's, where Sean, the sommelier, provided an exceptional experience. His expertise shone as he recommended the perfect wine pairing for the Pulpa dish, enhancing the flavors and making the meal truly memorable. The thoughtful guidance added a delightful touch to the overall dining experience, making Fhima's a must-visit for those seeking a harmonious fusion of exquisite cuisine and expertly curated wine selections.

Jacob Danner: my original 1915 Singapore Sling recipe from Raffles Hotel Long Bar, which he recreated flawlessly giving rise to taste buds stimulation. It was so unique, and a photograph of it is included.I proceeded to have a Moroccan dish “Lamb Meatball Tagine”. It was served to me in the tagine, and, as the server lifted the top of it, and waved it about, the aromatic signature of the dish, with its wonderful blend of Moroccan herbs and spices took me away to exotic lands and musings.Lamb Meatball TagineOnion confit, Ras Al Hanout

Saint Genevieve: what do users think?

Andrew R: Had a lovely brunch with my partner and her parents. The atmosphere walking in is very inviting and intimate. The service was splendid with nice appropriate information. The food was stunning! Everything was perfectly balanced with flavor and presentation. The brunch menu is limited but well rounded. We will be back for date night to try out the full dinner menu!

A Johnson: It's a great space for people watching.The food was tasty, but just kinda missed the mark for me this time. The texture of the leek fondue was almost like baby food, and the smoke in the risotto was overpowering.

Ann Nusbaum: This was our first time at this establishment. We went for New Year's Day Brunch. Love, love, love this place. The food was amazing. I had the French Omlette. It was perfect. Rhe beignets were the best I've jad outside of New Orleans. The quality of the drinks was unexpected. The Expresso Martini is a must. They also have Sazerac, which is unique for this part of the world. The place had a great vibe. Intimate setting, low key, relaxing, not rushed. Great place to hang with old friends, a date or family. We can't wait to go back and check out the dinner menu.

Sarah Horness: The restaurant is cozy and a bit loud. The service was excellent. My rye whiskey sour was wonderful.The duck with lentils was delicious and the chocolate creme brulee was perfection. The only thing I did not really love was the escargot croquettes. The sauce on them was delicious, but I did not enjoy the croquettes themselves. A small disappointment in a lovely meal.

Monello: what do users think?

Isabelle Clough: My family and I dined at Monello during our first visit to Minneapolis and it was the best restaurant we visited in the Twin Cities. The wine pairing menu was excellent and I loved every dish I tried. We were so sorry to hear they were closing and made sure to make one last visit—which was just as amazing as the first time, despite having a more limited menu. Our server, Brittney, provided fantastic service and definitely added to the welcoming atmosphere!

Susan Smith: A bittersweet evening, knowing this is the last of our many meals at Monello. The rabbit torchio was sublime. Our server, Brittany, was both professional and fun. The Manhattan is the best in town. We wish all the staff good luck and hope to see you again somewhere-

Dayna “Artbyladyd” LadyD: Was deliciousOne suggestion - for the cost serving sizes could have been a bit bigger.But the food was incredible.And for 40ish bucks I could have absolutely eaten my plate twice - but I'm not sure who can afford that.Our servicing gentleman Reid was amazing.My old fashion was crafted deliciously and executed beautifully.

Daniel Friberg: We had dessert at Monello a year ago and had always intended to return for dinner. When we heard they were closing we finally made our reservation. Everything from shared apps to main courses to dessert was really enjoyable. Sorry to see them go! Best wishes to the whole staff.

Ryo Flying: Went there for lunch on Sunday. It was relaxing and the service was great. Both chicken sandwich and seared tuna sandwich were excellent.

Phil El-Wailli: Food was great, portion sizes were smaller than I hoped. If you have a normal appetite you'll have no issues with the portions but if you are a big eater you might need to ask the server for their biggest platter!Staff was amazing and very helpful. Josh was very knowledgeable and made this evening very pleasant.

Stacy Finlon: We had a wonderful graduation dinner and Josh and Brittany were top notch!!Loved the food, service, atmosphere and so sad to hear you are closing

sadona el-wailli: Joshua and Brittney were absolutely wonderful and the staff was so pleasant. Would recommend this place to ANYONE

Kelly Hjulberg: This was a wonderful meal at a decent price. The servers were all very attentive, especially our waitress Brittany. I really enjoyed all of my meal and highly recommend for a classy dinner.

Marcie Dewalt: Brittany was amazing and the food was outstanding! It was great to have one last dinner at Monello!

Mason breuhl: thanks brittney

Alex Under: A fantastic place for magnificent food. The only thing that tops the quality of the plates is the quality of the service. Brittany was absolutely wonderful. Attentive and professional, but fun and personable. This was the loveliest Friday night we’ve had in a long time. Thank you!

Café and Bar Lurcat: what do users think?

Heather Kaiser: This is one of our special occasion places! The food and ambience is always so great. If you have friends visiting from out of town, this is the place you want to take to impress them. We like the bar side, but went for a date night recently and ate on the dinner side. We had an impromptu four course meal that was curated by our server. We took out time and didn't feel rushed. Every server and staff seem to be in a good mood and polite, whether they are bringing you food, cleaning your table, or passing you on your way out. I definitely recommend going about an hour before sunset. PS the setting in the former monk's quarters is beautiful.

Joan L: was in front of our order, so she offered us a side dish to accompany our main meals and we added the sweet potatoes.🐓 The main entrées were well done — chicken was beautifully carved and presented. The skin was tasty. The black rice and sauce were nice compliments to the meat.🐖 The pork chop was a beautiful, thick cut of meat. We ordered it medium and it may have been ever so slightly cooked a little under medium. Seasoning was perfect and had a nice, tart flavor coming through with the sauerkraut.🍠 🌟 WOW! 🤩 The sweet potatoes were the star of the evening! Sweet, savory, bright and fresh with lemon, crispy skins… just wow! Order the sweet potatoes!!🍰 For dessert, we ordered the chocolate panna cotta and olive oil cake. Both were absolutely stunning and would fit right in at any patisserie! Excellent flavors, textures, and presentation! Faultless!I’ll definitely be coming back!

FireLake Grill House and Cocktail Bar: what do users think?

Ryan O'Halloran: Incredible food and super friendly staff. Everyone was checking on my table even if they weren't my usual waiter. The food was incredible and very rich. I had the Marrow Toast which was absolutely awesome and the Duck Confit Stroganoff which was a touch salty but the flavors were incredible otherwise. The drink selections were vast and interesting and overall it was a great experience. I would say the one minor complaint I had is that with so many rich dishes on the menu I wish there was a side salad option.

Cathy A.: Stopped in for lunch after arriving from NYC and what a welcome! The decor is beautiful. We sat in a private area and it felt like a private brunch party. The food was great and the service was even better. Our sever, Nicki, was incredibly helpful and friendly. The Manager, Willie, was beyond hospitable and attentive. He checked in on us throughout our stay to make sure everything was perfect. The cornbread was great and the coffee was better than the big name brands. Will definitely be stopping in again during our stay!

Mandie Langman: We ate here before seeing The Lion King at the Orpheum. It's a nice walking distance from the theater and a nice atmosphere for a dressed up, special night out.Service: Outstanding. Our server, Mario, was spectacular. Attentive and personable. He was also kind enough to give us happy hour prices even though we technically weren't sitting on the happy hour side of the curtain. That meant a lot to us as we didn't see anything on line stating these prices only applied to certain tables and was a factor in our choosing this eatery.Food: Delicious. I appreciated the many gluten free options. I had cornbread and the stuffed mushrooms. The cornbread was amazing! I shared it with my husband but could have easily eaten it all myself. The mushrooms were a bit heavy on the garlic. I would have preferred that flavor to have been a bit more subtle. My husband had the bison burger and enjoyed it. It's spicy but as he described, "a nice level of heat." We had the vanilla bean creme brulee, and it was a wonderfully smooth, flavorful custard.Drinks: Good. I had a glass of Chateau St Michelle Riesling, a wine I choose often so I knew I'd like it. My husband had the Old Fashioned, which was made with Maker's Mark and just isn't his favorite alcohol, but that's not really the restaurant's fault as he did choose to order it.Overall, this is a place we'd visit again the next time we're in the theater district!

Keitha McKinney: This was one of the best experiences I’ve had. We were there for my cousins birthday dinner our serve Nick was great he didn’t miss a beat very professional, friendly and funny. The manager Willie came over to see how it was going. & introduced hisself to see whose birthday it was, he made sure we got a birthday dessert. Informed us about the weekend breakfast for our birthday as well. The food was great, you could cut the steak with a butter knife. The overall experience was great I would definitely recommend this hidden gem. Once again I would like to say thank you to Nick & Willie

Edward Todd: The service was great. Food was good. The restaurant was active and loud, which is great for a lot of occasions, but would have preferred a quieter setting for a family dinner. But, my first priority was location with good food and service a second consideration. All in all, it was very nice.Parking: A Parking ramp was close and convenient. I think it was $7 for the evening.

Joan's in the Park: what do users think?

Sydney Davis: Truly a dining experience like no other. The food is delicious - I eat the steak every single time I go because it is my favorite food in the world. I'm pretty sure everything on their menu is made from scratch and every flavor is perfect. They take such care and pay such huge attention to the details. The wine pairings are out of this world, and it's such a luxury to turn off my brain and just know that every sip will be perfect. And the service is the warmest, most competent and most genuine service I have ever experienced. You will feel cared for without feeling smothered, and they will go above and beyond to make sure you are enjoying every moment.

Gaye G.: Our evening at Joan's in the Park was exceptional.Our waiter was personable and helpful, and the food--every bite--was wonderful. We enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere and the unobtrusive, but melodic, playlist. It was nice to be able to savor our meal without feeling rushed and, the restaurant is small enough that it's a great place for conversation too.If you are looking for a special and memorable--but not pretentious-- meal, you can't go wrong at Joan's in the Park.If you are celebrating a birthday or anniversary, be sure to let them know when you make your reservation. We were at Joan's for a special occasion, and they added special touches which made us feel celebrated and right at home--all in the best ways.

Karen Sauro: to the overseeing by Joan herself, and all the prep by Jen for our group, we were already blown away. Then the food arrived. Each bite sent us into reverie. Are they magicians??Dietary restrictions: I cannot do butter. They were beyond accommodating!

Zoe Kourajian: This was truly the best meal of my life. My husband and I went for my birthday, and they made it so special with complementary Prosecco, confetti, and a photo to take home. The food and the wine pairings were beyond incredible. If you are looking for, a special meal out, I cannot recommend this restaurant enough. I cannot wait to go back for my birthday next year!

Mathew Lu: . The food was good—more elevated comfort flavors than modernist cuisine

Brianne Vogel: My husband and I recently celebrated our wedding anniversary at Joan’s. Our food, drinks, and service were phenomenal. We especially enjoyed the savory eclairs, beef tartare, duck breast, and brown butter pudding along with the intimate atmosphere. Highly recommend Joan’s for special occasions or just to enjoy an upscale dining experience.

Samantha Marren: . They sent us a complimentary round of champagne to celebrate while our server Dan welcomed us in and answered any initial questions we had.Service, from start to finish, was a proper experience in real hospitality. We were so attended to the entire time. Dan did an exceptional job, we can't say enough. It is so refreshing to receive such care as a guest. It was refined, upscale, and truly fine dining, but it felt as cozy and loving as being in mom/dad/loved-one's dining room. The dining room was full, which is always a delight to see, and the energy of the space was upbeat and lively. The way a bathroom is kept says a lot about an establishment and the bathrooms were clean, they smelled nice, and were clearly well maintained.The menu was absolutely divine. First of all, it was SO fun to look through each course and see dishes that we've never had before, think about what we wanted to try, what we might share together and what we were most excited about individually. Then to receive each course and to be completely blown away by the flavors, textures, plating, and overall harmony of all of the ingredients... It is *abundantly* clear that whoever is leading the BOH/Kitchen is creating from a place of love because we could feel it in every bite of our evening. Each course was such a beautiful experience; however, my particular favorite was the poached shrimp for my second course. We shared a couple of desserts and a bottle of wine and had

Giulia: what do users think?

Brian Babyak: Food was fantastic and drinks were excellent, however service was pretty terrible. Took a while to place order and our appetizer was forgotten and then came out cold after our entres. A shame because the food here was so excellent. I'm normally understanding of slow service but there wasn't any notice of staffing or slower service provided and the party next to us at the bar was tended to much faster than us.

Lisa Deslauriers: Nate!! You are fantastic! Manager is wonderful as well!

Kim Wolfe: Warm olives, focaccia, and cocktails, OH MY! This is a beautiful backdrop for a milestone birthday celebration. The food is tasty. Cocktails were expertly made. Our group had a wonderful time. Quality is a 10/10, service is an 11/10, and cleanliness was perfect too! It is PRICEY and parking is slightly inconvenient. Great place for a once-in-a-while visit.Dietary restrictions: Limited vegan optionsParking: It’s downtown Minneapolis!

SM Tablet: Service: 5/5

Revival MPLS: what do users think?

Jewel Ryan: I went here for a friend's birthday and they happily accommodated a group of 7 even thought they are quite small for a restaurant. I initially thought their prices were fairly high for chicken, but then I received my food. I ordered the chicken tender plate, and I swear I got 4 MASSIVE chicken tenders. It's definitely different from what I was expecting but worth the cost. They were a bit difficult to eat because of their size, but I had leftovers for days. Would recommend for a nice relaxed group of friends. Order the lowest spice level unless you really do like spicy. One of my friends was sweating eating their middle tier chicken tenders haha.

Matthew Schepp: On a recent trip back to Minneapolis, we dined at Revival for the first time in a few years. This updated location has added parking which was a great touch! The menu, and food is still as fantastic as it always has been!

The Mindful Midlife Crisis Podcast (Billy Lahr): It's been a while since I've been to Revival, so I'll just talk about my first few experiences, which were awesome. I still believe this is the best burger in town, and when you can order a whole Nashville Hot Chicken as a complement to that tasty burger, what's not to love? I know there are a couple of Revival restaurants in the TC now, but I like the intimate atmosphere this one provides. The best experiences I've had is when I bring 2-3 friends with me who are from out of town and we order a bunch of different menu items. They all rave about how amazing the food is here. I don't live in MN anymore, but I hope the quality of the food at Revival is still at a high level the next time I'm back in town! Highly recommend!

Latasha Dyar: Atmosphere was good low key ...good food.

Manny's Steakhouse: what do users think?

Davis Zackaria: Incredible setting with amazing service… loved the part where they show different meat cuts and the size they are serving!!Ordered Double Porterhouse, Roasted Bone Marrow, Sautéed Mushrooms, Glazed Sprouts, and creamed garlic spinach among three people. The portion was filling and the meat was juicy and super delicious.

Grace Berg: Located in the W Hotel and first floor of the Foshay Tower, liked the location. The room is one big room with tables everywhere almost shoved together so it gets really loud, lots of business and big group dinners.Steak lacked flavor overall, I would return but because of the steaks but the apps and sides. Great service, attentive, more than helpful and went above and beyond for us.Great sides, loaded hash browns are monstrosities and had enough to feed everyone and then some. Also fair selection of desserts that were also sharing size - everything is jumbo it seems. Full bar menu and tons of options.

Kinkel Kinkel: Lamb chops were large and melt in your mouth amazing. Highly recommend the truffle fries and asparagus for sides.Easily some of the best cheesecake I've had.

Ops Doctor: The experience is pure top line steakhouse. The atmosphere is perfect. The staff are fabulous. Portions are giant. The key lime pie was big enough for 3. Potatoes were delish. Pie among the best I've had. The Manny's Manhattan was very good. The disappointment was the steak. It was not on par with a premier steakhouse. Not as favorable or juicy as it should have been. Plus, it had a lot of gristle. This is a 200 a plate or more place.

Anna Mikell: . I enjoyed my meal too quickly to take photos, but I did snap a pic of the "Death by Chocolate" dessert. It was made with love and delicious!

Sue: Perfect for a birthday celebration! Husband and I each had the large filets, son had double porterhouse and they were all perfectly done. Service was friendly and excellent. Sides of loaded mashed potatoes and mushrooms were good for 3 people and we had a little extra.Decadent Bailey’s cake available for son’s birthday, which was perhaps the best dessert ever. Staff made the occasion seem festive and special without drawing attention of other guests, which we really appreciated.Parking: Valet available for a fee, plus several ramps available within 1-2 blocks.

Jack Miller: This place is great, my wife and I were in from our of town to celebrate our anniversary and from the moment you enter the front door to the moment you exit, the customer service is absolutely phenomenal. I've been to the oceanaire for seafood, I've been to Murrays for steaks. Here I got the lobster tail and the dry aged ribeye, in my opinion both courses beat the oceanaire and Murrays. Yes, you're going to have to open your wallet up for this experience, but I promise it's worth it. The lobster tail was fantastic and the steak was excellent.. overall this place is a 9.5/10. The only thing that held it back for me is the bone marrow, I wasn't upset at the price of anything except for that item, for what you pay you get very little. The apple wood smoked bacon is fantastic, I highly recommend that for an appetizer. The cocktails are great, yes expensive, but they're loaded. The customer service? Phenomenal, best experience I've had anywhere. The waiter was knowledgeable, excited, and friendly. I've never seen steak sold before, this place does it and it's one of the best parts of the experience. Overall fantastic place for a special occasion. We will be back!

James Conley: Visited Mannys after a Vikings game. Best Steakhouse I’ve ever dined at. Bout all I can say… the best!

French Meadow Cafe & Bluestem Bar: what do users think?

Noel Stroner: This brunch spot is adorable and has excellent food and drinks. The service wasn’t great - no one explained to us the self serve area vs full service area when we walked in, just stared at us. Another group walked in behind us and the staff then proceeded to explain everything quite kindly to them. The staff member that took our order at the counter acted quite annoyed and barely spoke to us.

Kellie Hoffman: .The atmosphere was really cool!

A Google User: The cinnamon buns are out of the world Jamison the bartender hook me up I love this place I just hate because they only have it on the weekends
