Caitlin ClementsOctober 20, 2017Haunted - restaurant beset with accounts of flickering lights, rearranged furniture, cold chills, and unexplained noises.
Arun D'SouzaNovember 20, 2015Beautiful house thats been converted to a Restaurant. Very Chic and Up Market.- HISTORYMay 21, 2010This mansion was built in 1870 by Joseph Forepaugh. He sold it to Civil War veteran, General John Henry Hammond. It was purchased in 1983 and renovated to it's former glory.
City PagesAugust 5, 2014The place is still supposedly inhabited by a ghost named Molly, the alleged lover of the mansion's original owner, Joseph Forepaugh, who hung herself from a chandelier. Read more
- The new(ish?) downstairs menu is delicious and has some surprises. Try the BBQ sandwich on pretzel bread. Tasty!
- Austin WestermannFebruary 15, 2012Reportedly the most haunted building in Minnesota, Unexplainable things happen at night, but it is accepted as long as nobody gets hurt.
Two outdoor dining spaces -- the terrace which overlooks Irvine Park, and the porch just off the bar. Both fabulous!
- New happy hour is fantastic! No flabby wings and soggy nachos here.
Have Victor make you his special: Absinthe (though he refuses to use fire).
Kara BitoNovember 1, 2012Dishes visually appealing but did not deliver on taste/texture. WAY TOO SALTY. Also, we were put at small table while every other couple was put at large tables - made entire experience uncomfortable.
