New American Restaurants near Brooklyn Center, MN

“Great for parties or hang with a group of guys“

“Seth was a fabulous waiter and the food was delicious- elevated food for a cool sports bar. And even better service“

“Some odd industrial music choices and higher volume when packed didn't impede my enjoyment of our absolutely delicious drinks, gnocchi, halibut, or steak. Service and food were lovely throughout, just be prepared to have to shout a bit to converse~“

“We had a fabulous dinner with another couple. Food was great, table was great, service was very good. Disappointed that no staff told us that 26% charges were automatically included. My fault for not inspecting the itemized bill closer i would have expected staff to share that a 21% gratuity was already included (not to mention an additional “administrative “ fee was also included) before I added an additional 20% gratuity.“

“Food, atmosphere, and drinks were all fantastic. The Owner/Chef Joel has created something special at this gem nestled in a Minneapolis neighborhood. We had a large party for a friends pre-wedding dinner and the staff handled it great. From the apps to the desert, you can’t go wrong with anything you pick off the menu. We were all tasting each others food by the end of the night wanting to try EVERYTHING! Some have stated a smaller menu and prices, but then say the food blew them away…I for one like to pay to keep amazing food and ingredients an option. Can’t wait to bring my wife and other family members in the Twin Cities to do it again.“

“We hired Brasa Catering for our wedding and couldn't happier with the food and service they provided. We received multiple comments that it was "one of the best wedding meals they've had" from a few guests. Not only was the food delicious, but the crew was extremely kind and went above and beyond for us. Thank you again for everything, we'll keep you in mind for future events!“

“Highly recommend! Logan, our sever was attentive and helpful with food recommendations. The food was top notch! I had the Thai pork chop meal... the pork chop was cooked to perfection and the cauliflower fried rice vegetables were delicious. My friend had the salmon and said it was fabulous. For dessert we tried the cheesecake brûlée. An added bonus it is gluten free. My only complaint is that we were seated by the door and every time it opened it got very cold.“

“Restaurant is amazing! Steady Eddie every time. Creative, well crafted, beautifully curated pre fixe tastings. Highly recommend!“

“We had Crave do another one of our yearly April Gala + Award Shows. This year they did our open bar at Union Depot's Red Cap Room in St. Paul. They were EXCELLENT! The bartenders were personable and professional. They provided a signature cocktail for our event that was great. Having them at our event was exactly what we were looking for and they executed it perfectly. Five Stars.“

“Located in a beautiful space on the first floor of the IDS Center. I stopped in for a happy hour and I'm so glad I did.

Happy hour aside, I would come back just for their hummus (and a beer). I generally don't care for hummus but this was noteworthy.

Their smash burger was my ideal burger. It was simple but with classy ingredients.

I definitely recommend sitting at the bar, they have a frost rail that keeps your drinks ice cold. Maybe it was that rail, but even their water tasted especially great.“

“We enjoyed a pleasant pre-concert dinner. Our experience was very positive, beginning with a friendly greeting from the person at the check-in desk, and continuing with attentive service from our very charming waitress. We chose two basic items from the wide-ranging menu, and both were winners. A huge chopped salad topped with blackened shrimp, big enough to share. And a half-pound burger that was cooked to order and accompanied by a large serving of crispy fries. A tasty serving of ice cream was a perfect ending to our dinner.“

“We held our company Christmas Party at their beautiful restaurant and had such a great time! The staff were so attentive and wonderful to interact with throughout the whole evening! We ordered an array of food and our employees couldn’t stop talking about how fantastic the prime rib and KFC (Korean fried cauliflower) were! The talk around the shop about this event and the delicious food went on for days! We all had such a great experience from start to finish. They made it so easy to plan, set up, host and tear down. We would highly recommend anyone looking to host a party to come here! Now if you are just looking for a bite to eat for a date night or family night out, they also have you covered. No matter what plans you have this is the spot to be! A huge thanks to Lake and Irving for all they did for us and a massive thank you to Chris the chef! That meal was better than we could have ever expected!“

“My friend and I had an incredible time at Owamni. My compliments to the chef. Truly one of a kind experience. The food was outstanding from start to finish ( presentation, flavor profile, texture, all natural and full of character). There’s not a place that’s more unique than Owamni in Minnesota, in my opinion . I highly recommend this establishment, and I wish you prosperity and success.“

“Quaint little joint in NE in a residential area. \nThe bar is nice & big- looks like a good happy hour place. \nWe sat at one of the tables up front. We had the cheese dip with crostini for our appetizer. Good flavor. We needed more bread to enjoy the whole ramekin of cheese. For dinner we had the bolognese- nice thick noodles, very filling! We also enjoyed the prime steak & the smoked pork chop. At the best I’ve ever had but still a nice meal.“

“Best food in Mpls! Great staff/service. Chef is AMAZING!“

“-Vinai MN- My friend and I wanted to try Chef Yia's restaurant due to being homesick and wanting hmong food. We were met with such great service and sat where we could see the work area. Chef Yia was so kind and started us off with a complimentary appetizer, rice Curry balls. We ordered and the food came so fast. As soon as I took a bite, my eyes started to get teary because it tasted like food from home. I started fanning myself to not cry which Chef Yia saw and asked if the food was too spicy. We then started to explain that we were not from MN and were feeling a bit homesick and how the food reminded us of home. Chef Yia then said, here let's do this. He returned with a pot of beef soup that consisted of mushrooms, bamboo shoots, beef and green onion and white rice and shared that this dish was one of those dishes that we would eat at gathering and events. We we so shocked and so at loss with his kindness and compassion. We both took a bite and immediately lighted up. It tasted like my mom's cooking 💓. As we were nearing the end of our meal, Chef Yia told us not to stuff ourselves too full and surprised us with a complimentary dessert which further awed us. We were so lost at words for Chef Yia's kindness, generosity and comfort. We chose the Lava Cake and it was soooo good! I normally don't like sweets but we devoured this 😋. 1000/10 would recommend.“

“Even tho, there are interesting things on the menu, I got the cheeseburger. OMG, best ever!
And the truffle fries - tasted of truffle without being way too greasy. We had a 2nd order for the table.
It's a special, soulful place, our group were all very happy“

“Ryan was the absolute best server that I have encountered in my life! I have an anaphylaxis food allergy. He was so on top of making sure that whatever I ordered wasn't going to be an issue. He checked with the head chef 3 different times about different entrees, so I could have the best experience. We are from out of town and will definitely be back due to the great service provided. Ryan, thank you so much for being so attentive in regards to my allergy. Tonight's experience made your restaurant, one I will always recommend.“

“Borough is fantastic. Great food and service and the atmosphere is wonderful.“

“Highly recommend, incredible fine dining experience. Especially when paired with wine selections. We go at least twice a year and have never been disappointed.“

“Excellent food! Great wine!♥️“

“Our first time here. Our server was amazing and the food came out fast and was good. Our only complaint was how rude and condescending one of the hostess was. Sydney was extremely rude multiple times to me and my mom. I was more upset of how she talked to my mom. Her name was Sydney and we were not the only one she was rude to. It was a shame since the rest of our time was a 10/10.“

“Excellent service! Abbi W was our server and she made the dinner so much better! Good food doesn’t matter without good service. We will definitely be back and ask for Abbi!“

“Best food ever and the staff is awesome!! Visit this restaurant, you will not be disappointed!!“

“Food was very good. My mom got the shrimp lemon and chicken pasta which was FANTASTIC 10/10 on that. My dad got the pot roast stroganoff which was also fantastic another 10/10. I got the prime rib French dip which the sandwich was fantastic, however the au jus was very bland which was disappointing. The tater tots were awesome. Would definitely eat here again!!“

“In Fargo, service is not great. i had one bite of my meal and told waiter he could take it. He never asked why, if anything was wrong, just grabbed it and walked away. I wasn't expecting anything other than for him to know why my meal was not hardly touched. He never came back to table until he brought us the bill.“

“This place is legit top restaurants in msp, why??? Because they have talent and imagination. Any one can buy great ingredients and high end products, but can you make sidewalk grass , spruce pine , lingcod , wildrice and strawberry taste good ?(Not a real dish just something off top of my head) That's talented and worth talking about , the folks here have talent. And if your looking for adventure of the palette look no further.“

“We had a blast, we bought a package combo including a cocktail and 27 holes on the 3 courses they have. The facilities was decorated for Xmas which was awesome.
There are 3 separate bars, so we didn't have to wait around for a drink, the putt courses were awesome and the touch screen score keeping was convenient.
We will definitely be back!!“

“Amazing food, good service, lovely patio“

“My waiter Addison was great and very attentive. However, the short rib sandwich was over cooked and over priced. On line there were a couple of items that I didn't see on the actual menu while at the restaurant. We were given the lunch menu at the front door, this really confused me, later Addison eventually figured it out. The rest of the experience was nice. The comedy acts were funny, except for the second to last guy, that totally bombed, as part of his act was to call all women bitches. He was poorly prepared, and otherwise was not funny at all, and should not be invited back.“

“best place in the twin cities. I remember when there was only beer and wine behind the bar and they sold single cigarettes. Dinner was a baguette and a roasted bulb of garlic and a bottle of wine. theater in the back with story tellers and fringe artists that kept this transplanted nyer here in the twin cities for 30 years.“

“love it. awesome service“

“Loved this place. Great food and service“

“Visiting Pittsburgh and this was a great stop with a friendly staff (Kudos Tyrone) and great drinks! Fun time with the putt putt (beat my husband). If in Pittsburgh area this is a must stop!“

“I really recommend this place to eat. The food was delicious 🤤“

“I got the Bison Back Ribs served over polenta with a gastrique (that was a new one to me). Surprising to me, the polenta and gastrique stole the spotlight. I also got to try my friend's Ribeye Bolognese. It was hard to say which was better“

“I ate at Milton's VVB tonight with my husband. The food was amazing, but the service was even better! The waitress was honestly the best waitress I've ever had! So friendly and funny! I was blown away! Shout out to Wafaa for taking good care of us! We hope to be able to visit Milton's again and again!“

“In Fargo, service is not great. i had one bite of my meal and told waiter he could take it. He never asked why, if anything was wrong, just grabbed it and walked away. I wasn't expecting anything other than for him to know why my meal was not hardly touched. He never came back to table until he brought us the bill.“

“Excellent service! Abbi W was our server and she made the dinner so much better! Good food doesn’t matter without good service. We will definitely be back and ask for Abbi!“

“The staff are friendly and efficient. Their prices are reasonable.“

“An absolute hidden gem of a wedding venue!! Just had my wedding here a month ago and couldn't have been happier. Here are some of the reasons for choosing the Campus Club for your big day:

1. All encompassing price - the low (by wedding industry standards) venue rental is all inclusive, no cake cutting fee, linen fee, etc here!
2. The FOOD! We go so many compliments from our guests about the food, you won't taste a speck of the usual bad wedding food...I'm still thinking about the mashed potatoes and lasagna.
3. The staff! You work with a venue coordinator, we had Liz, and she was phenomenal at being communicative, helping us through any questions, and making sure our day went smoothly. They also have multiple managers on the day of the event and all the staff was incredible.
4. You get the whole 4th floor of the Coffman Memorial Union, we got married on the balcony, cocktail hour in the bar and then dinner & dance in the ballroom, so great to have so much space that is solely yours!
5. Being on Campus gives you a photo worthy backdrop to memorialize for your big day.

So happy we chose the Campus Club for our wedding venue!“

“This is one of the best gluten free and healthy restaurants in the five state area. The food tastes homemade and the dining area has a lot of natural light with big windows and a view of Bde Maka Ska (Lake Calhoun).
My personal favorites are their egg sandwiches on delicious focaccia bread. All the bowls are great too. Their business continues to grow and I’m looking forward to their new Edina store.
The manager, Kyle, is very personal, professional, and greets me by my name. I’m a regular. I come weekly. As a celiac, it’s the safest restaurant around.“

“Absolutely delicious food! I can’t wait to go back“

“I love the interior design, service, and food here. I also appreciate the interesting menu selections, which offer more variety than other spots in St Louis Park. This is a great place for a date, a girls' brunch, or even a corporate meeting. My mom use to order the duck sandwich, which unfortunately is not on the menu anymore. She tried the Kimchi bowl instead and enjoyed it. My favorite is the chicken Mediterranean wrap—the chicken is such great quality, and they're really generous with the portion size! I also recommend the ratatouille, chicken wings, chicken apple sandwich, fresh espresso martini, and hummus platter.“

“We had a dinner party for 33 people in this wonderful place on Saturday night celebrating the marriage of my son and his new bride. The manager Stephanie was so wonderful to work with knowing we would be taking up almost half the restaurant. I highly recommend this place.“

“Their wings are delicious and we had excellent service today. I’m ready to go again.“

“Everything about this place was a delight! It was a beautiful day so we sat outside on the patio, but the inside has a really nice vibe. The food was delicious, with lots of gluten free and vegan options. I had the oatmeal latte and it was tasty with just the right amount of flavoring that still allowed the espresso to shine through. We were there for breakfast so can't speak to the dinner menu, but the quiche was fantastic!

They also have a free, shaded parking lot.“

“Bricks is one of our go-to spots, my husband and I are there monthly, and for good reason. The bar setup is awesome, the service is always top-notch, and the menu never misses. We know we’re getting incredible food every time, which keeps us coming back. The pizza and burgers? Unbeatable. The truffle fries? An absolute must. And if you haven’t tried the corn dip yet, do yourself a favor and order it... it’ll be a permanent starter in your rotation after one bite. Every visit leaves us happy and satisfied, and the consistently great experience is why we love Bricks so much. Huge thanks to the team for always delivering!“

“Great place! Great food! Great service. Loved the patio for lunch. Ivy was incredibly professional and gave great customer service.“

“Great entertainment set up The food was okay but way overpriced and I really didnt enjoy eating in the dark ! Next time I would just go and have a drink and an appetizer or dessert . I would stop somewhere else for food“
