Erna Janssens: Love this place: quiet, healthy food, and friendly employees! 😋 😃 😊!Recommended dishes Trio of Soups …

Bethany Charlsen: We've dined here many times and every meal is a unique experience. It's an ideal place to come with friends or just your partner to sit back and enjoy the creativity and care of the chefs and staff. I love that the kitchen staff serves the food as you can tell from the passion in their descriptions, they are proud and eager to share it with you.The bar next door is a perfect place for a pre- or post-dinner cocktail which is a huge bonus! In addition, you can bring your own wine and enjoy with the meal for a very reasonable corkage fee.

Ubah Abdi: Had a reservation, but there was no one to check us in. After standing for 20 minutes, a waitress came and was looking for the hostess who is supposed to welcome guests. He left, came back to tell us there were no free tables, then left. He then came back and took us to a table by the wall where we had to wait 20 minutes before someone finally noticed us.

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!

Alton Gerold: My girlfirend and I went last night 1/10/24 and had their date night special, all courses were excellent, service was great! We will certainly be returning in the future. Good idea to visit both this location and Parlour in the basement if you are making a trip to the cities for either restaurant.Parking: Parking was very easy for us on a Tuesday as a spot was open in the paid parking lot 20 feet from door, on a weekend it may be tougher as this area has more limited parking and is very busy on weekends. Likely valet would be the way to go on the weekend and visit both Borough and Parlour to get full value!

Deanna Ann: My server was a sweetheart.

lorie costello: Great small plates. Great vegetarian options.Vegetarian options: Lots of fresh vegetable options.Dietary restrictions: Easy low carb options

Kristen Bongard: The baked artichoke dip with gluten sensitive pita bread, Chiang Mai Thai Noodles Entree and the Winter Apple Spritzer was PHENOMENAL!! The service was great and loved the atmosphere! Will definitely be back soon for more!! ♥️Dietary restrictions: I can't eat or drink anything with Gluten and this restaurant did not disappoint or cause any kind of flare-up! 😊

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!

Donald Josephson: Recommended dishes Porcini Rubbed Bone in Ribeye with 15-Year Aged Balsamic

Thor Kooda: Fine dining at an affordable price.Excellent menu, professional and courteous staff.Staff made me feel welcomed and at home, from the hostess to the servers, and even a guy visible back in the kitchen gave me a nod and a smile.Menu is elegant but approachable, a little something for everyone.Parking: Plenty of parking on the street outside.

Emma Engebretson: This is my third time coming here and it is great! The “gin parade” is great, so many options. I highly recommend the new blood orange housemade tonic. Food is pretty good too. The most outstanding food is the pizza! Honestly some of the best pizza in mpls. They gave me a special dietary restrictions menu which I always appreciate so I added that here as well.Dietary restrictions: Ask for the dietary restrictions menu!!

Dan L: Went here for my adult daughter’s birthday. We got a bunch shareables and a slice of pizza. Ok, the pizza was good but just ok. But the shareables….outstanding. We had the fried eggplant, Schupfnudeln, Pici, and cavolo bianco. They were all great. Topped off with the banana cream pie and crème brûlée doughnut. Service was great. Cocktails were perfect.

Garrett Woetzel (Garrett W.): This is my favorite pizza in Minnesota, hands down. Buttery and doughy crust, super tasty-acidic red sauce, and top notch ingredients.

Abby Anderson: We had such a great dinner here. Pickled cauliflower salad was for sure my favorite but everything we had was delicious! Service was fabulous! Our waiter had great recommendations and was lovely! Atmosphere is cozy, relaxed and just fun! Would highly recommend!Kid-friendliness: We had an early reservation at 5:15pm and there were a couple of cute families with young kids there too. Was very kid friendly!

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.

Kevin Biegler: Hadn't been to Oceanaire in many years. Now I cannot remember why and we will be back much much sooner. Stopped in on whim after the Twins opener sat at the bar. The signature Old Fashioned is beyond compare. The raw bar was fresh and their oysters incredibly delicious. We did a series of appetizers and cocktails the bar staff was friendly and efficient and fun! It was still the same great Oceanaire we remembered and we won't be waiting to go back! Thanks for a great evening!

Francis Henry: Always a 5 star experience!!Recommended dishes Seafood …

Amy Svoboda: Unbelievably delicious flavors, we were ridiculously impressed. Stunning culinary experience. All the staff were amazing and so friendly.You must get all 4 teasers. They are the most delicious bites. The steamed buns are next level, pork belly insane. Love a watermelon and feta salad, but the cucumbers in the salad were the highlight, so good. Jerk cauliflower was also scrumptious.Mimosa flight was delicious.I cannot wait to come back to try more!

Nick Hook: Eat food at tongue-in-cheek...definitely eat jerk cauliflower then eat dome...dessert dome...eat it because good.Kid-friendliness: Kid like dome. And hamberderz...

The Mindful Midlife Crisis Podcast (Billy Lahr): One of my favorite spots for brunch. They have these teaser dishes that are without a doubt the most flavorful bites of food I've ever had. It's not downtown, so it feels like a hidden treasure on the East Side, so I like to take people here who aren't familiar with this side of town. They always love whatever they order. Great selection of diverse dishes as well. I'm not a fish/seafood person, but everyone I know who's ordered a seafood/fish sandwich from them loves it! Highly recommend!

Nick Schwendeman: Great place for lunch. Excellent wood fired pizzas, sandwiches, plus hoagies, wraps, and salads. Service is always super friendly and prompt. Nice indoor seating overlooking a pond, with an outdoor patio for warmer months. Accesed via the Normandale Lake office buildings skyway system. Free parking in the office tower ramps.Parking: Office tower complex parking ramps are free and have plenty open spots even noon on weekdays.

RyanSarah Logan: I LOVE Cafe Fusion! The wood fired pizza, hoagies and wraps are terrific! You will not be disappointed. The staff is as nice of a group you will encounter. We always make Cafe Fusion an option when ordering lunch! Great people, great food makes it easy.Seriously, I cannot recommend this place enough. Try it, you'll love it.p.s. try the Thai pizza... It's one of my favorites!Kid-friendliness: We placed a late order and picked up our food after the doors were locked. The crew was so nice and offered my daughter, who is 7, a free cookie as we left. This place is so great! I will always be a loyal customer!

Alec Englund: Cafe Fusion has incredibly friendly staff, delicious food, and a great environment. The Buffalo Soldier sandwich is especially amazing, easily my favorite sandwich I have ever had. I've got back multiple times, and its always great
