    One of the best spots in the city - you can’t go wrong everything is delish! They have great seafood - try the swordfish it’s the best combo of flavors. The side of broccoli blew my mind as well.

    Best dining experience you can get in Minneapolis! I would definitely order again bison tartare, scallop carpaccio (was so good that I didn't take a picture) and honey desert with condensed milk.

    Beautiful dining room, perfect bread and butter, delicious squid ink spaghetti with prawns, mussels, and octopus, and a great duck main. Don't skip dessert. The profiterole was incredible.

    Incredibly delicious cooking going on here. Literally everything we had was excellent, but don't miss the stand-out Lobster Gigli, Spaghetti Nero, or Potato Gnocchi pastas. WinstonWanders.

    Service is amazing as expected. Drinks - amazing, strong. Food - bison tartare, duck meatloaf sliders & fries. Tartare was delicious as were the fries. Sliders good but ... try something else first.

    I highly recommend. The agua chile tataki and the wild mushroom sturgeon soup are out of this world. The Paloma was unconventional but delicious. Great atmosphere, phenomenal flavors.

    Beautiful place, open and inviting. Great service. We came late without a reservation. Got seated in the bar and hit great drink recommendations from the server. Delightful and unique desserts.

    The food here was great & memorable. The Scallop Carpaccio and the Grilled Heritage Pork were stand-outs & the Tarte Flambé (bar menu) was a good surprise that helped to round out our meal.

    Scallop crudo - as good as everyone says. The lamb shank - hearty, in a rich sauce. But the hands-down best dish was the surprisingly awesome combo of creamed spinach topped with fresh cheese curds.

    My steak was cooked perfectly, melted in my mouth. Every dish had all elements of flavor and texture. It was so elegantly comfortable - no dress code.. and such excellent service. DO NOT SKIP DESSERT!

    The scallop crudo is the best (and possibly the only) way to start off your dinner. It tastes amazing and looks great on Instagram as well. What else does anyone need? Read more

    An appetizer of fire-roasted baby carrots made us fall in love with the root vegetable all over again: tender, smoky, sweet, and accented with gentle curry sauce, rye croutons, and sunflower seeds. Read more

    Very rough around the edges. Sunday evening dinner. Bread service took 40 minutes to arrive from when we were seated...and only after the prompting of our server. No apologies. Standoffish & sterile.
