New American Restaurants in Minneapolis, MN

“Fun experience. My favorite course was the steak tartare. The “main” courses were an adorable play on a summertime bbq spread with the most delicious bbq sauce ever. The wines were well paired with the different courses. Also, I have to say, at $120 per person for the meal and wines ($80 food/$40 wine), Tenant is an excellent value.“

“Great food! Great service! Exceptional kitchen management!“

“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.“

“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 hosted a small work dinner of 8 people and our group had such a good experience we decided do to a larger event at All Saints. We had a group of 20, the team at All Saints was excellent work with in planning this dinner. Again, our group had an excellent time. The food, drinks and service were incredible. We will be back!“

“-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.“

“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~“

“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.“

“This restaurant was about average all things considering. Food was mediocre as well as the service. About the type of food and service you'd expect at a chain restaurant (even though this is not). The flavors were basic and the waitress didn't pour out wine and refill water. You had to ask for everything. It's an ok place to go but you won't get an experience there. Don't expect a lot and you'll be fine.“

“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.“

“We recently ate here for the first time. Enjoyed it so much we came back. Food was delicious and wait staff was exceptional. Will definitely be back. Patio seating is great; unfortunately there was a small dog here the second time that was a barker!“

“Excellent food! Great wine!♥️“

“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.“

“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!“

“Love the Harriet! Thru covid, the LH "Big Dig" and many other challenges, this family owned and run restaurant continues to provide warmth, cheer and good food to our Linden Hills neighborhood.“

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

“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.“

“We love the space and the food is delicious! Especially love working with Marissa.“

“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.“

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

“Fantastic food - every bite was amazing!“

“love it. awesome service“

“Food is decent. Service is good. Expensive prices. Always busy before the game. So, you’re better off going during the game when people leave for their seats. Patio seating is awesome since you get to eat and watch the game. I wish there was a time limit to the patio seating since there are other people who want to sit outside when it’s busy too. Anyway, I’ll be back for another visit soon. Win Twins!

P.S. It’s awesome there is Twins awards/stuff around the restaurant! The World Series trophies makes it worth the visit!“

“Delicious Quesabirria tacos with consommé. Friend taco shells with succulent stewed beef, cheese, onions, cilantro, which you can dip in the beef stew broth. $15 with tax, but filling - split it with my kid.Located in the food court of Mercado Centrale - a bustling Hispanic market in the heart of Lake street“

“We had Old Southern Bbq cater for our wedding and it was absolutely an amazingly positive experience! The director of catering, Amy, was so helpful and on top of everything. The catering team was absolutely wonderful! All of our guests ranted and raved about the food all night, especially the potato salad and the cornbread muffin tops. 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.“

“Nice ambiance, delicious food, super friendly staff“

“Currently sad about the loss of the buckwheat chocolate chip cookie, which is in my top two favorite cookies of all time. My 11 year old daughter called it her favorite. Our little family of 4 has been going to Farmer’s Kitchen for years. My 11 year old always ordered a buckwheat chocolate chip cookie and a lemonade. It’s been tradition until recently when the bakery disappeared. I realize kitchen transitions are going on but this is my plea to bring back that buckwheat chocolate chip cookie. Right now my 11 year old is asking for Starbucks instead of our trip to farmer’s kitchen because of the loss of the cookie. We love you guys and that cookie. Please return the buckwheat chocolate chip cookie!!🍪“

“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!😊💕“

“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!“

“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.“

“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.“

“came for a date night - our online reservation didn’t go through so we sat at the bar
we got the bologna sandwich and a lasagna type pasta dish and ended the night with the special cheesecake (turtle)
glad we went but probably won’t be back. The food was fine but a little spendy.“

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

“Great atmosphere! So many people having a great time. Ordered the Dragon's Milk Braised Beef Ribs with snap peas and mash. So good! So tender and flavorful! Gravy was chef's kiss!“

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

“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.“

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

“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!!!“

“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.“

“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“

“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!“

“I was in town at an educational event and a friend recommended we meet here for dinner. Well it was so close to my hotel that and the menu looked amazing so I went for breakfast after landing. I am sad I only had time to eat here twice. Breakfast I sat alone at the bar and there was live music - so great. The bartender Ness gave me great recommendations and I’ve never had a better breakfast in my life. Huevos Rancheros, Virgin Bloody Mary, and a side Lemon Ricotta pancake (thanks Ness, I DEF needed to try it) Dinner time I was still full from breakfast (even though I couldn’t eat it all - portions were great) so our server Adam helped me decide which dessert I would have. The caramel pecan roll was out of this world! The atmosphere was top notch, love that it’s employee owned and just had such a great, uplifting and cool vibe. I told my daughter this morning that if I ever came across a dirt cheap flight to Minneapolis- I’d go JUST to eat here again. Flawless….“

“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“

“Amazing food, good service, lovely patio“

“Great concert venue. Plus. Their food is 5 star quality.“

“Great cocktails and brunch in a fun, comfortable atmosphere. Our bartender was friendly and they have a nice, dog friendly patio. Will definitely go back!“
