A truly one of a kind experience in Minneapolis. The food is amazing and somehow the service tops it. If you want something special, try Cave Vin
The menu at Cave Vin is full of variety. It's the perfect place to go if you're looking to explore different flavors and try something new. American dishes are really awesome.
Every neighborhood should be lucky enough to have a restaurant like Cave Vin. Excellent food, wonderful staff, great value. Our party of three last night enjoyed every bite of the can’t-miss fries, Brussels sprouts, penne pasta, arctic char with sautéed greens, and pork tenderloin with grilled asparagus — all accompanied by a lovely Côtes du Rhône. Wish I could give it even more stars!
What a delightful and cozy gem of a restaurant! This was our first time dining at Cavé Vin, but it won't be our last. From start to finish we were impressed with the quality of the delicious food and engaging, proficient service. The mussels in white wine were perhaps the best I have ever enjoyed, and the salad of alternately layered beets and cucumbers tasted as wonderful as it was artfully presented. The top sirloin was blanketed in a smooth demi glace and served with a pat of Bleu cheese butter that slowly melted into the sauce. My one regret was not ordering the baguette to mop up all the decadent sauces that accompanied the mussels and steak! We will definitely add Cavé Vin into our rotation of favorite restaurants!
This place is such a gem! The service was unmatched. The manager (maybe owner) was quick to greet us, gave us a sample of wine while we waited and checked in frequently. The food was incredible! The pesto pasta was amazing, the beat salad was a surprisingly refreshing and delicious! It was all great. Would definitely recommend!
My wife and I had the pleasure of going to Cave Vin for the first time. We were looking for a hidden gem restaurant we haven’t been to before and are so happy we went here. The service was incredible and the food delicious. Best tartare I’ve ever had. I don’t know much about wine but enjoyed tasting what my wife ordered. They seem to have a great selection. We can’t wait to come back again!
Cave Vin has been a favorite of mine for over a decade! The ambiance, food, wine and service are excellent. The owner is gracious, friendly and welcoming.
Delicious food, as before. Great service and pleasant space. Great for early Valentine's!
This is perhaps my favorite restaurant. I've been to most of them in town and believe this one is the best. The food is always stellar and the staff take hospitality to the next level. Cave Vin has a special place in our hearts and stomachs. Thank you Ken and staff for all of the memories we've had with you and for more to come!My favorite: Artic Char;Wife's favorite: pork tenderloin.The best Brussels sprouts I've ever had.
For a Fun and Relaxing meal with exceptional food and Wonderful Staff, this is the place to go. It's a wonderful S. Minneapolis Secret, and there is no other like it.

This unsuspecting gem was an exquisite dining experience. With a party of 4, we practically tried everything. There is an amazing wine selection that the staff is informed on and we had an exquisite paring. All of the food was amazing, truly a feast. Come hungry. We did not have room for dessert, so we had both and we do not regret them. I highly recommend this restaurant and the owner is just absolutely wonderful. Before we left, a table before us applauded the kitchen staff. We should have done the same. One of my favorite restaurants in Mpls.
Delicious! The service is outstanding, the drinks just keep on coming, the food is delicious and I honestly can't say enough.THE BEST GARLIC FRIES in the Twin Cities.---------------------Update:Highly recommend the tartare, the lamb, the steak, the tres leches cake and the fries.They no longer do the garlic fries but the fries are still on point and I could drink the garlic aoili it's so good.We've been coming here for 3 years and it's still a super chill intimate place with amazing food and great service. The menu can change whenever they feel like it (they print it the day of and can even customize it if you have a special celebration) so you never get bored!---------------------Post pandemic update: still a great place with delicious food and service. They haven't sacrificed quality at all.
OMG, we were here on opening night, all those years ago. We have rediscovered Cave Vin after coming back to Mpls. The food, quality hasn't diminished. I think we have re-found our new go to restaurant. Service is great, servers are attentive and friendly.
MY FAVORITE restaurant in Minnesota. Food is always delicious and bursting with flavor. Had multiple birthday celebrations here for myself and my friends.The owner is so friendly, especially when we took our kids here for dinner. He showed them tricks, talked to them, asked them questions. Now they keep asking "when are we gonna go see Ken again at the restaurant with the card on the ceiling?" ?❤️
Love this restaurant!! Amazing food, service and it’s local business. The owner, Ken is a talented individual l.
