French Restaurants in Minneapolis, MN

“The staff are incredible and the food is outstanding I've never had anything like it, not to mention the bar is so gorgeous I could look at it forever. My husband and I have been here three times and we will be back again, soon I hope! This is the perfect spot wether you are celebrating a birthday or anniversary, or just want to try incredible food some place new! I will be back soon with my mom just because I think it's so magical everyone must experience it. Bûcheron is a must!“

“We've been several times, food and service have always been excellent, recommend the mussels and the Cassoulet.“

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

“My friend and I showed up at around 10:40 PM. We love that they're open until midnight- perfect for a snack and a drink or two after a movie, say. Their Thai coffee is less cloyingly sweet than most, and their pommes frites are all business. The slice of carrot cake is colossal, and also more subtle than most. The warm woodwork and Tiffany lamps make for amazing ambience, whether you're shmoozing a date or debating a movie with friends. An old favorite!“

“I honestly wish I had discovered the Tasting Room sooner. What a gem!

Our server was incredibly knowledgeable about their wine offerings, extremely attentive, and truly spot-on with his recommendations. I was also pleasantly surprised by how reasonable the prices were, especially given the amazing quality of both the food and wine.

This has officially become one of my new favorite spots!

I also want to give a special shoutout to Nico, who I presume is the owner. My guest accidentally left their phone behind, and Nico responded to my email promptly. When my friend returned the following day to pick it up, Nico recognized him right away and made sure he got his phone back.

It’s clear that they genuinely care about their customers and make a real effort to go above and beyond. Between the excellent food, wine, service, and hospitality, I can’t recommend the Tasting Room enough!“

“The business has a nice atmosphere, and the service was pretty good. They couldn’t serve alcohol - the server told us that their license had expired due to an oversight during ownership changing.

I had the grass fed beef burger, which was just OK. I wouldn’t make a trip to French Meadow just for the burger, and I probably won’t order it again if I come back.“

“This is a place you’ll get hooked on. From the Waygu burger, Salmon Sandwich to their baked goods. I bought a brioche loaf and made the most amazing French toast from it. Very worth a visit for breakfast and lunch!“

“Special little spot to enjoy a craft cocktail or a bite :)“

“The best breakfast at a hotel restaurant I’ve ever had! Hands down. The Americana is what I had. Bacon, and I mean real bacon! Get the fruit, and you’ll see it’s the freshest, best you’ve ever had. This place is worth the visit.“

“Went there for breakfast. Unfortunately the bar was open during my stay but breakfast was served there. Typical grab and go stuff but the hot breakfast item they did have was amazing and really good value. I was stuffed after eating that breakfast“

“My new hideaway...at The Come Pho Soup, sidewalk Cafe✌🏾💜“

“PRICE GOUGE during the Microsoft failure. We were stranded in MN when our flights were cancelled. I booked 3 rooms for 4 adult using the Marriott Bonvoy app. When we arrived with no flight, no luggage, and other reservations Neliu (at the front desk) stated he couldn't locate the reservation in his system. He went on to say that rate of $170 wasn't available that weekend. I showed him the email confirmation, and the confirmation in the app. His focus was on charging us $420 per room per night. We left and ended up in a Microtel for $500 for 2 nights after waiting until 2am for a no show so we could get those rooms instead. The next day there was a reservation cancelation. How can there be a cancelation when there was no reservation. I have since read multiple reviews from this hotel where ppl are being denied entry for one reason or another. Neliu claimed not to be able to find a reservation when I had documenting of it solely so he could price gouge for over double the price THAT IS ON THE MARRIOTT BONVOY app. I also saw that the Residence Inn had the same rate of $170 on the app. I have called back to Rand and spoke to Jeannie who said she would contact the GM, Apple Noble, and I haven't heard from anyone on this matter. It's been 3 days.“

“I have been going to Umbra since August 2019 and fell in love with the whole place from day 1. Even though I live 4 hours away I make this a regular trip because the food is amazing but the staff make the whole experience everything you could want and everything you didn’t even know you needed! When I saw that Kay Kay was doing a Paint-n-Sip event at Umbra I smashed that registration button so fast and brought my mom and cousin along for the adventure. I’m not an artist and have always been intimidated by a paint brush so I appreciate others who make art but generally tend to shy away from actually creating art myself. Kay Kay made it such a fun and positive experience where anyone was welcome, encouraged, and celebrated regardless of their skill level. I met some new friends (which is pretty typical for me anytime I visit umbra haha), and am looking forward to the next event Kay Kay hosts! We all had an amazing time!“

“The staff is amazing, best service downtown Minneapolis.“
