New American Restaurants near Falcon Heights, MN

“The tot has become a must have for me!“

“We had a fantastic experience at Tenant! The six course meal was delightful - days later I’m still remembering the green sauce that had the perfect balance of vinegar and herb. We had the best halibut here - the only problem was wanting more. It was such a fun experience, the perfect mix of elegant and rustic with flavors that surprised and delighted. One suggestion: Would love to know more about the wine pairings and why the wines were chosen to pair with each course.“

“Honestly, really flavorful and unique food for a decent price. Google says $50-100 but for our table, we were closer to $30/each for entrees. Alot of options as low as $15 though. And the burger is a super good deal for the money ($16), it's super cheesey and fantastic. I will be back!“

“Went there today for the first time. Great food, chef kissed delicious! Great service, friendly atmosphere. Wish my youngests food came out at the same time as the other 4 of us (his came out 10 minutes later and he’s 2) but portions were so big we had enough of our food to share as he didn’t eat his when it finally came. Otherwise delicious and would definitely recommend“

“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.“

“Highly recommend Holman's Table for events - it's a perfect gem of a space, great for corporate events, special dinners & happy hours, intimate weddings and more. Great service and food was delish.“

“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.“

“Una experiencia inolvidable! Celebré mi cumpleaños en Fusion Pancake House & Bistro y no puedo estar más agradecida. Claudia la encargada, organizó un espacio para 22 personas con tan solo un día de anticipación, lo cual fue un detalle increíble. Además, tuvieron el gesto de invitarme el desayuno por mi cumpleaños. Desde el servicio hasta la atención al detalle, todo fue impecable. Se nota el compromiso del restaurante por hacer que sus clientes se sientan especiales. Sin duda, regresaré pronto. Gracias por todo!😊💕“

“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.“

“Best place in the twin cities for vegans, vegetarians, and big time carnivores to eat together and be totally satisfied with the many great options available to each of them. Always shocked by how reasonable the check is too!“

“We were here for dinner over the weekend and everything about this place was phenomenal we tried multiple things off of the to share or not portion of the menu and loved every bit of it. The whole grilled fish our waitress mentioned rotates depending on what is available fresh and it was cooked to Perfection and probably our favorite thing all weekend. The cocktail menu is unique and everything that we had the opportunity to try was delicious I highly recommend doing the cocktail flight to anybody who doesn't have a favorite spirit. Staff was incredibly friendly and knew what they were talking about if you had questions. To those looking at going here reservations are a must!!!! Great atmosphere as well“

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

“-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.“

“Just spent the most wonderful evening at Breva Bar & Grill! We had their pre fixe Thanksgiving dinner which included a turkey breast filled with stuffing, a fantastic sweet potato casserole, and green beans. We also were treated with the most incredible server, Dahlia. What an infectious smile and warm welcome. She definitely made out dinner fabulous. Can't forget the pumpkin cheesecake! Thank you, Dahlia and the rest of the Breva staff.“

“I thoroughly enjoyed my meal, my server Tommy recommended a breakfast special he created as he also is one of the chef’s, and it was so so so good. An elevated food experience that lives up to the Minneapolis food scene’s reputation. Decor is awesome too. Thanks for the experience and recommendations Tommy, you’re the homie!!“

“Amazing! We stopped here for our first time for pre-event drinks with our friends. We anticipated having one cocktail and being on our way, but were instead treated to something more akin to an experience! The GM greeted us and took our order and made sure we got to try more than just our drinks. A whole story about finding someone to re-tie my husband’s bow tie turned into a hilarious challenge for most of the staff. Even to the point that the assistant GM was going to drive to Von Maur while we finished our drinks (we declined..but wow). What kind of place does this!? Our cocktails were amazing, the charcuterie plate was delicious (the jam, honey, and cheese…just wow). But most of all, the staff made everything so memorable. We’ve never experienced anything like this! We will be back soon for a full dinner. Thank you for making our night so enjoyable!“

“Edit: I finally dined there. The food was fantastic, my wife loved the onion rings and the careful service that we were given. Burgers were great. Coleslaw was actually refreshing, and not mayo dumped. Matt and his staff gave us a wonderful time on New Years Day. I will be back, with a bottle of heinz which is a small complaint.

Edit: The manager was very very prompt in responding to my email in resolving this year. In prompt it was less than about 30 minutes when I reached out via email. Which is actually, pretty darn impressive nowadays to take responsibility instead of passing the buck. They get five stars now.

I made Christmas reservations only to learn less than three days before Christmas that they weren't actually open. Their site allowed me to make a reservation. I called them to confirm if they were closed as I found out not from them at all. They did confirm it, and then laid blame on my insisuating that since they've never been open for Xmas, I should of known. Okay, then tell that to your reservation page.Pathetic service right before the holidays.

Even after I called and said it was taken down. It's still up allowing others to book a reservation. I hope there ain't some family that shows up expecting a reservation thay never should of been placed.“

“Exceptional food! Super nice servers!“

“Amazing food. We shared 4 plates. Each one better than we could have wished for. Possibly the best Paloma I’ve ever had. The manager Natalie took tremendous care of us. Fabulous experience.“

“This was my first visit, but will NOT be my last! Wow! The food was delicious. We had the date night menu, which included an alcoholic beverage or mocktail, salad, appetizer, main course, and dessert. I assumed that we'd have small portions given the modest price. I was pleasantly surprised by not only the portions, but the quality of the food. The server was delightful, and the ambience was perfect. What a perfect dining experience before attending the theater. I highly recommend NOA.“

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

“This wasn't simply an excellent meal, it was a phenomenal experience. It feels reductionist to say Michelle was our "server". She was more like a cool dinner party host who has everything under control - spending enough time with us to answer every question, made suggestions, and took care of anything we might have wanted before we knew we wanted it.

We had the tuna lover's sushi platter, and it was really fresh, expertly plated, and the flavor balance on the assorted rolls was on point. If you're not into cilantro, I could see how the Mexican fusion could be problematic on a few of the rolls, but we love cilantro, so it was a real treat.

A bottle of sake' was either a brilliant idea or ill-advised, but we weren't driving, so we think the prior.

Pros: Fresh, bold flavors, hospitality pros

Cons: Price reflects the experience - it's not cheap.“

“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.“

“I love the ambiance (fresh, just right music, delicious and creative food, friendly people). I love the markit too - and browsing while sipping my wine or coffee. And I love the live music on sat!“

“With a location on the second floor and the up escalator being out of service... getting there was a little tricky. Tables are a little too close together in spots, making it seem louder and more crowded than it really was. Service however was very good, and very quick to deliver drinks and food. Signature wild rice soup was slightly over salty, and was reminiscent of standard canned or frozen wild rice soup. For the cost, I kind of wanted and expected more. The starter salad was fantastic. It comes in two sizes and I went with the smaller plate - which was huge. Well balanced and delicious. I wish there would have been an option to add a protein but I'd get this again regardless. My companion had the smash burger which looked great, and the fries are pretty decent. Something tasted off however and unfortunately, smelled a bit off as well. (Came down to the cheese). They were very quick to replace the food (sans cheese) and I'm told the burger was much better. :). For a downtown restaurant the prices are pretty decent and they certainly have the timing down. Not my favorite but a solid choice“

“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!“

“We had a fantastic date night at Joan’s! Highly recommend! The food was incredible. Perfect pacing, portions, wine pairings, and the flavors have you closing your eyes to experience each bite. One of the best meals we have ever had. Our server was thoughtful and friendly. Great dining atmosphere. We will be back!“

“Wonderful atmosphere, staff, music & cuisine! Highly recommended for a night out.“

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

“Every valentines day my husband and I try a new steak restaurant. We love steak amd I couldnt cook it

In 2021 we could not go out for steak due to covid. Sample room had a take and bake meal with clear instructions. It was a great meal with baby steaks and veggies etc. But since that day I am not afraid to cook steak because of the precise instructions. They gave me what I needed.

It's now 2024 and I rock at cooking steak.

Thanks sample room.

They also have a great vibe and great charcuterie so you should go“

“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!“

“Absolutely phenomenal! Menu changes often so there's always a reason to come back. Their service is top notch and the food is some of the best I've had. See mussels with curry squash and a mini pumpkin with duck and everything else good. *Chef's kiss*“

“Great music in an old school club.“

“First time was a great experience. Definitely will return“

“Tasty and twisted. Try the lemon ricotta pancakes!“

“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.“

“Loved this place. Great food and service“

“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!“

“It was awesome! The service was great! Staff went out of their way to accommodate all 11 of us! Everyone that works there seemed happy and ready to help! I graded a 4 on food..only because out of PERSONAL preference I didn't like my food, BUT someone else at our table had the same thing and LOVED IT! And a 3 for atmosphere because it was a bit loud and hard to visit ..but again that's a personal preference...Would we go back?MOST DEFINITELY“

“Cheerful and professional service from Sydney. Great artichoke dip and nice smooth lattes. The hibiscus orange tart has great flavor, but a little odd in texture for me. A wonderful option within walking distance of the XCel and Science Museum.“

“Sweetest spot for families w young kids too - this team has been so sweet to our son who is obsessed w putt putt. We were rly pleased w staff amenities and vibes here!!!“

“Food is amazing 🔥🔥🔥 the short rib was awesome“

“Amazing concept for dining!! We ate at in a community style at this restaurant which was different for us. We got seated at a table that was like a picnic table with strangers and it was fun. We met new people and tried some new food as well. It was perfect timing because the ladies we met were actually living in the unit above the restaurant and gave us some pointers on the menu.“

“Amazing food, good service, lovely patio“

“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“

“Not a bad place overall. I had a Chicken sandwich with pesto, and it was pretty good. Decent amount of food and pretty good quality overall. Nice outdoor seating area and it seems like it would be an excellent place to grab a work lunch with one or two people.“

“Delicious food, great service and wonderful ambience. We'll be back!“

“10/10 would recommend 😁 best sports bar around“
