42 Best Bars near Excelsior

“I stopped in for lunch today. Molly was my server. She was super friendly and always seemed to be wearing a smile. I ordered the Turkey BLT WITH Fries and a Mr Pibb. The fries came out hot and fresh. The bread freshly toasted. The Turkey on my BLT was tender and juicy and the bacon added the perfect hint of smoke... like a BLT should. I was very pleased I stopped in. I hear they have some great game-day specials as well. Stop by and check them out.“

“The food here is AMAZING! Came here for a gathering and although it was busy, the service was still prompt. The outdoor patio area is a vibe in the evening hours with the tiki bar, and the view of lake Minnetonka! I definitely would return again.“

“Amazing brunch- chicken biscuits and gravy. Excellent service and staff!“

“A super chill environment. Fun for all ages. Highly recommend!“

“Best restaurant/bar in town. Cindy is a wizard with her menu. Everything on the menu is to die for! So much better than Maynard’s and stinky fletchers. Plus that one brunette server is so gorgeous. Katey, can I have your number?

Parking: Best parking lot in the whole wide world. I would live there if cindy would let me.“

“Babes is the place to be!!!! Awesome staff and an even awesomer owner!!!“

“always wonderful perfect thin crispy crust perfect ratio of toppings today we had the El Camino - excellent but the spicy arbol chili red sauce was too hot for us we should have asked for mild or just pico de Gallo. our son will enjoy it“

“The owner, the big B (Brian), is amazing. He is a great person l, honest with prices and amazing drinks. The atmosphere is so comfortable and you feel like you are family when you are here. I know the owner personally, but I give bad reviews when due, he has EARNED THIS. Amazing bar always come here.“

“Was a little weird at first.. walked in to a guy named Bob dripping wet with 6 shamwows laying on the floor next to him. Started talking, friendly guy but thinks cheese on burgers is gross. Huge red flag. Also, he got so drunk I had to turn into an Uber for the night to get him home safely. Exceptional place otherwise.“

“Good food. Can’t go wrong with pizza. Service in the bar area not the fastest, but wasn’t in a huge hurry.“

“Drove in from out-of-town, needed a beverage or two and something to eat. Great food and just what we needed!“

“The point of this place is to get drunk and socialize, and you can absolutely accomplish that here. They've ruined the atmosphere with the stage they added a few years back for bands. I know the intention was good, but bands could fit a smaller footprint without the stage, and it's a single room that absolutely does not need elevation. We played there for years, and having room for people to dance made the experience wonderful. Those days are gone.“

“This is an interesting place. Usually myself and two friends come here to play pool and just chill. Don't tend to order drinks anymore too often as it takes quite a bit of time to get one. Even when it's pretty slow. Maybe they are just tired and ready to go home. We do go there between 11pm-1am. Maybe it's because there is usually some idiot(s) there causing a scene and having to be kicked out. The bartenders are very kind though so I will give them that.“

“Was at Moes's Char House Chanhassen with Sarah Morgan . Pulled $250 in Pulltabs. The waiter, an Excelsior Dufus, would not let me use 3 credit cards, he demanded cash. I tipped him $30 and then the manager yelled at me for shorting the tab. $50 in cash had gone missing from the table as the Excelsior Man giggled at me. I tipped him $30 more and left. Don't go to Moe's Char House!“

“Great Irish/American comfort food on the menu. Irish Rolls were great, Shepherd Pie, and Meatloaf all done so well. Met Chef James at Twins game and made a special short 20 minute trip out from our downtown hotel. Food was worth the trip, staff was absolutely great and friendly. We brought our pup with us, plenty of outdoor sidewalk and patio seating, and a water dish provided. Will be back again.“

“I am a customer and I had the best dining annd entertainment experience with the incredible staff here at Floyd’s bar! The band was Coconut Tiger, such a class act! The band was high energy, the bartender Frizby was our favorite! We had a large group of us but Frizby our girl did a AMAZING job of taking care of us, it was spontaneous, we came in for a quick bite, and it ended up being an entire night to remember! Thank you Floyd’s Bar staff! The security guys were kind but badass too, the funnest night I’ve had for a long time!“

“excellent service food tasted great best happy hour out there“

“We made a reservation and wanted to sit on main floor in booth. They didn't honor that. We were sent upstairs and the sommelier waited on us and was wonderful as was the food. We were escorted upstairs by the concierge on the elevator. Food and drink was amazing.“

“6 Smith is one of our favorite dinner spots but we decided to give their weekend brunch a try and it was nothing short of amazing! My husband had the chicken and waffles! They were out of this world and perfectly balanced with salty, sweet and a little smokiness from the bacon! I had the orange Suzette pancakes and they were pure perfection!“

“This is our new go to spot on the weekend nights! The sticky ribs are amazing and the steak, gnocchi, and especially muscles and basically anything you order is going to be good!!
The prices are a bit high, and it is a bit noisy most of the time we go, and I don’t really like that you can’t make reservations ahead of time for sitdown tables. But overall, we still love going here when we can afford it. Recommend you try it for sure. Food won’t disappoint 😊“

“When asking the question - What should we do for dinner? Many times the answer is Red Roosters! Always great!!“

“The stuffed walleye is fantastic and the side of peppers and pea pods was also delicious“

“Had a great time at Bango. The DJ was awesome! Such a great time and GREAT food!“

“Tuttles has it all and totally stepped it up with the renovation of the dining area and the Live Music. Tuttle’s Eat, Bowl, Play is a powerhouse of fun, great food, great service, incredible music and togetherness with Community! You MUST stop in for a bite and please do stay a while to go bowling and later see the live music.“

“My wife and I were thoroughly impressed. The wings were some of the best I've ever had and the prices were incredibly cheap. $7 for the Brindisi burger with fries?! My wife had the beef stew and it was great as well. Server was friendly and the patio was nice.“

“People like to say, "this is some of the best food outside of (insert city)." The Noble Lion has some of the best food anywhere and amazing staff as well!“

“We had fun here for a late lunch on a Thursday. The buy 1 get 1 for $1 drink deal hit the spot with a grilled cheese sandwich, which they were willing to customize with tomatoes and pickles. Our waitperson was really friendly, and the drinks came fast even though it was getting pretty busy and the shift changed.“

“the family atmosphere. we will be back“

“My husband and I went here for a date night this past weekend. We made a reservation and were glad we did because it was packed! We were seated promptly and enjoyed the calm, relaxing atmosphere. At the recommendation of our fabulous server Hong, I ordered a side salad (so good!) and we both ordered the salmon/orzo bowl. It was cooked to perfection and so tasty, we both felt full but also light. Our drinks were filled promptly and we so enjoyed our evening together. Hong was so great from start to finish, thank you! Only one thing I’ll note to staff is it was a little warm by the heater! Otherwise great job, we’ll be back!“

“Delicious barbecue chicken and peach tea. Excellent service. Very nice patio.“

“We had an excellent lunch today! The waitress did notify us right away that they were still new to the systems and a new owner and that things may be a little chaotic but, It was our first time stopping in and we hope to make it up that way again, soon! Picture may look weird but I'm a NO BUN gal. I also want to mention the fries were PERFECT! We were pleasantly surprised when they arrived already seasoned and they were hot and crispy but not overcooked I even told my granddaughter I think those were the best order of french fries I've ever had anywhere because they were hot and perfect and seasoned! The waitress also suggested the seasoned sour cream over the plain sour cream, and I would definitely recommend to do that, it was all delicious! The building is cool and it's got a great looking outdoor patio that we wanted to sit at but it kept raining off and on so we decided to sit inside. But next time I would love to sit outside! I know there was one person working behind the bar and I'm pretty sure our server was the only one working the whole floor other than possibly the new owner, or maybe it was the manager, that was helping to bus tables a little bit, and take out food and she/server did an amazing job.“

“Indoor Dinning, large menu, creative cuisine, great food, and healthy options“
