We are great tasting pizza at 11pm when most places are closed now. There was excellent heat to the flavor with the jalapeños. It will be our late night stop after tennis now.

I just had to share my recent experience at the restaurant. I'll admit, after a previous visit, I had been a little concerned it might have lost some of its sparkle. But wow, I was absolutely blown away this time around!

Seriously, from the moment we arrived, everything was just fantastic. The service was incredibly attentive and friendly, making us feel right at home. The place was sparkling clean, which I always appreciate, and every dish that came out looked like a work of art.

It's so clear that whoever is overseeing things truly champions excellence, because the quality across the board was outstanding. And the food, oh my goodness, the food! The Bang Bang Shrimp was cooked to perfection – wonderfully crispy and served with vibrant, fresh vegetables and tender butter lettuce. And those chicken wontons? They were a revelation, with that amazing balance of creamy chicken and cream cheese, topped off with a delightful drizzle of hot buffalo sauce. Pure genius!

Honestly, it was a truly faultless dining experience from start to finish. I couldn't have asked for a better evening.

I have been a regular patron for many years and, until recently, frequently stopped by the Loop after work to relax with a drink before heading home. Unfortunately, I have reached a point where I no longer feel comfortable visiting on evenings when Brent is bartending. While I am sure he is a decent person, his demeanor behind the bar consistently comes across as disengaged, grumpy, and unwelcoming. I often feel as though my presence is an inconvenience rather than that of a valued customer. This stands in sharp contrast to every other bartender—particularly Jenny, Rocky, and Matty—who are consistently friendly, attentive, and make both me and my guests feel genuinely appreciated. Regrettably, Brent’s attitude noticeably diminishes the overall atmosphere and detracts from what is otherwise an enjoyable environment.

I have been here many times for the great food & service. We came to get a drink around 8:20pm and got seated right away. I know it was New Years Eve so I expected it to be busy but after 30 minutes nobody had come to our table and two couples seated next to us that got there after us had been served waters and drinks. I went to ask the hostess about it and a waitress was at the desk chatting with her during this time and the hostess said she would get someone to our table. After this the waitress that was with the hostess comes to all the tables next to us again and completely ignores us. Another waitress walks by us so we asked her if she knew who was assigned to our table and she said that same girl, Allie. At this point it had be around 40 minutes since our arrival and we asked if she would mind serving us. She was excellent and took care of us, got us waters and got our drink orders in right away. I'm not sure what the mix up was here but it felt a little deliberate after I walked up to the hostess and that was our assigned waitress standing there that didn't say a thing or address our wait or a little mess up. I wish we caught the name of the waitress that jumped in as she was amazing!

Steak bites were pretty good, the garlic fries were delicious, the house salad was average, service was a little slow, the music was a little loud, the temperature in the restaurant was good. I will go back one day, maybe in the summer.

Our server for our impromptu happy hour of 10-15 people was attentive and personable. We couldn't have had a better time and the selects this individual made for appetizers for us were on point too!

I come to work on my laptop over lunch so I can enjoy a great meal and service while I work away. Rocky is a big part of that, she is just the best- always makes me feel special even as I watch her do it to everyone in the restaurant!!

The Loop in Minneapolis is a fantastic neighborhood sports bar near Wayzata Boulevard. It has a great walk-in vibe where you can relax, watch a game, and enjoy some really good food.

The pizzas are the highlight — freshly baked right in front of you, loaded with fresh toppings, and available in both vegetarian and non-veg options.

The beer selection is excellent too, always crisp and fresh. It’s the perfect spot to catch up with friends, enjoy a lively game-day atmosphere, and have a great meal. Definitely one of our favorite places to unwind.
