Tami CabreraSeptember 6, 2011French fries with Bearnaise, Hanger Steak, and Mini-Donuts....these are my favorite things here! And the live music. Tell them they need Muddy Paws Cheesecake on the menu though :)
Megan RaeJuly 23, 2018Had an amazing date night!! Sunday’s three course was awesome and half off bottles of wine! Food was fabulous and desert was even better!!
City PagesAugust 5, 2014The restaurant serves artisanal American bistro fare such as a lush salmon tartare with black mustard seeds. The wine list starts below $20, covers the globe, and is available at the bar. Read more
Dave SawyerJuly 12, 2016The pot roast is wonderfully tender, juicy, and just plain delicious. It's comfort food taken up a few levels.
Melea S.April 14, 2013They sell wine by the taste, glass, carafe , and bottle. Service was great. Food, spectacular. The tuna tartare, organic salmon, and dessert were excellent.- Arielle LenoxMay 23, 2018Great atmosphere on the edge of downtown with views of Loring Park. They have some of the best french fries in the city!
John ArchilaJanuary 1, 2015Very swanky joint. Big windows overlooking the park. They always have parties for pride and a few other events.
Jeffrey PerlmanJuly 6, 2013As returning patrons, the manager noticed with a party of 8, it took 45 minutes for our meal to arrive, and she comped our Dinner and Drinks. We appreciated her excellent customer service and honesty.- City PagesNovember 26, 2012Voted top 10 French Fries! Golden French fries in a silvery bucket on a white china tray--Bar Lurçat doesn't serve mere fries, it presents a treasure of spuds.
Evan WaldeSeptember 6, 2013The only thing better than having the Sea bass or the New York strip is having the sea bass AND the New York strip.
DQ RobinsonAugust 3, 2010This place is great! Everything is tasty. Try the apple, cheese, & chive salad, then the sea bass, get some fries for a side, and finish with the chocolate cake. So good!
Jon MayfieldAugust 17, 2014Their tuna pizza was incredible. Also highly recommend the pasta - all made in-house.
Jill N.November 24, 2009Foodies will appreciate the exceptional dishes,notable wine list and even my fav apps: mini burgers w fries & hollandaise or healthier option: ahi tuna w apple coleslaw. 5stars Scallops wrapped bacon
- Melting Hearts USA SunglassesMarch 29, 2015Love the Lounge area! Great for a more relaxed happy hour!
Jen J.August 19, 2011The cheese platter is the best - yummy cheese and fruit/nut/honey pairings. If u don't like bleu cheese let them know and they will swap it.- Great bar and for dinner the sea bass with miso sauce TO DIE FOR!
Angela ChangJuly 31, 2013Any dessert/grapefruit martini more sour less sweet/mini burger w. fries/scallop wrapped bacon. Did I miss anything?
Rick PulitoJune 9, 20101. Favorite bar. 2. Favorite bar food (sliders). 3. Best sea bass. 4. Best GM (Christy). 5. Best Server (Sak). Go. Today. Now. Read more
Peter HeidornDecember 2, 2012NY Strip w/ blue cheese-stuffed onions. Just the perfect size, my mouth is still watering.
Michael ClarkeNovember 1, 2010The Key Lime Cheesecake Creme Brulee is out of this world! Split one with two friends and we had to order a second!
Phil B.March 12, 2011Try the Brussel sprouts! I hated them growing up but these are to die for and are a Minneapolis must do!
Cole KennedyNovember 20, 2011The bar menu during happy hour (half price drafts, well drinks, and house wine) is the best.
Date night special (sundays) here is such a good deal, I almost feel guilty about it. Almost.
JonathanMay 21, 2010Best Sea Bass I have ever had, miso glaze was perfect. Excellent shrimp ceviche appetizer.
Paul BarnesAugust 2, 2010Try the Miso marinated Sea Bass, it's like Candy. The most enjoyable piece of fish I've ever had.
Sit at the bar side and order off the cheap menu. Get the mini burgers (ask for cheese too) and fries with bernaise sauce.
- Bathroom Review: Good European-style bathroom (wash area is shared). They used to have great heavy paper towels but then the recession hit and now it's just normal paper towels.
