31 Best Wine Bars in Minneapolis

“Best pasta in the Twin Cities?????? Cavatelli with Rabbit Sugo was marvelous. We swapped and tried each others and I was equally floored by all of them. Wonderful service. Our server was friendly and helpful. Delicious drinks and cheesecake for dessert (ate immediately, not pictured). Absolutely will come back- hopefully soon!“

“I’ve never been disappointed at this restaurant. Interesting wines and great food.“

“Amazing food and outstanding service!“

“Visited for the first time with my daughter around 9 pm on a Friday evening. Every employee we encountered was super friendly! Our server was amazing. I think his name was Grayson but I’m not 100%. He was always there when we needed something, provided great suggestions and was just fun, personable and all around outstanding. This restaurant appears to be a popular nightspot as it definitely got busier as the night went on. Great music. Nice selection of small plates, decent prices. Good variety of cocktails with fun names. Large selection of beer. Highly recommend the Mushroom Bruschetta! Amazing and was served piping hot! They have those real good fries too…definitely would get again. The chicken wings were also delicious. Perfect crisp on the outside and nice spice to them. Try dipping the fries in the spicy sauce that comes with the chicken. I would recommend this spot and will go back.“

“Milly’s is an absolute gem in Minneapolis! The wine selection is impressive, with a great variety of both alcoholic and non-alcoholic options that catered perfectly to our group. The food, especially the charcuterie boards, was delicious and beautifully presented. Don’t miss out on the French onion soup! Our server was attentive and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the evening.

A special shoutout to Timothy, the sommelier, who was incredibly knowledgeable and helped us pick the perfect pairings for our meal. And the owner, Brandon, was so welcoming and personable, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. We’ll definitely be back! Highly recommend!

“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!“

“My husband and I chose to celebrate our one year anniversary here today. It was both of our first times dining at Broders’ and we enjoyed everything about this wonderful experience! Upon arriving we were attempting to take a selfie photo outside and one of the employees opened the front door and asked us if we would like him to take our photo. Tyson so kindly took several photo angles and opened up the door for us as we walked in. It truly felt like we were being welcomed into someone’s warm and inviting home. Our sweet waitress helped me select the most delectable glass of wine I have ever tasted. Words cannot explain how delicious the pasta was… we lapped up every single drop and were in absolute food heaven. To top it all off… we were treated to a free dessert of our choosing along with two chocolate cocoa truffles on the house!! After we finished our meal we went across the street to their storefront to purchase some pasta and sauce to enjoy at some point in the coming weeks. We will definitely be back for all special occasions and certainly for our two year anniversary. If you are looking for a once in a lifetime experience and meal this is the place!! Enjoy!“

“112 has been a go to for date night for my hubby and I for the past decade and it never disappoints. Every dish has its own journey of flavors and textures - we gave yet to try something we haven't loved. The red walnut pesto is a new favorite. The staff is friendly and so knowledgeable, and the drinks are top shelf.“

“Great food! Great experience!“

“Nice little hole in the wall spot on Central Ave. Busy street makes for easy access by foot, but not car. So it’ll appeal to some but maybe not all. Drinks were great! The apricot old fashioned was phenomenal. Didn’t get food because there wasn’t much of a menu, but smaller items to snack on. Not really a dinner spot but definitely a romantic date spot with great drinks and service. $4 Hamms for HH is excellent.

Parking: If you are a driver, park on side streets and walk.“

“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.“

“The team at Terzo are incredible! We have stopped by a couple of times over the last week and very impressed both times. We sat at the bar and all team members were very knowledgeable on the wines and the perfect pairings with their delicious menu. This place is perfect for a date night or an evening glass of wine, amaro, a delicious dessert, or a combo of both.“

“Fun place to hang out with ny husband for date night. Cocktails were great, loved the piano music. Would return“

“My sister and I were visiting Minneapolis from Chattanooga, TN. We stayed near the Tasting Room and decided to come in during their happy hour. It was amazing!! The wine and the pizza were perfection. The vibe was warm and welcoming. The service was so friendly. We both said we wished this place was in our town! Highly recommend!“

“Love this place. I feel comfortable going there by myself and just sitting at the bar.“

“The staff were extremely friendly, attentive and gave great recommendations. We enjoyed everything we ordered and would highly recommend going here again. The volume of the place was just fine for conversation and the I enjoyed the ambiance.“

“We had an EXTRAORDINARY experience at The Capital Grille last night! Our table was decorated with confetti when we arrive d because we were celebrating 2 birthdays. Their "In Fashioneds" were incredible and their wine list was exceptional! Our steaks were cooked to perfection, extremely flavorful and melted in our mouths! Our server, Shannon, was OUTSTANDING!!! She made our birthday celebration SO special!!! The Capital Grille never disappoints! Between the ambience, the food and the staff, you couldn't ask for more!!! It ws amazing!!!“

“We had a fabulous dinner! Our waiter was Patrick who made our evening grand! Highly recommend this steakhouse!“

“Duet is in the lobby of the Daymark. Service was pretty fast and very nice! Coffee was decently mid though, the maple cinnamon latte just tasted like a latte. There’s not much nearby, but it’s definitely a nice convenient coffee spot if you live in the daymark. They do have lots of options!“

“This coffee shop is adorable! Get the lavender London Fog, it might be the best ever!“

“The coffee and treats are excellent, great staff, and a lovely space in the atrium to sit for a few.“

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

“The food, gin and jams, and decor are perfect. This is my favorite neighborhood restaurant and bar.“

“This would be a 5-star review but for two problems. Firstly we were charged incorrectly, although a phone call the next day resolved that. The bigger problem is that they don't have baby changing facilities in the men's bathroom, only the women's. In 2024 this is unacceptable.“

“Always down to support a black owned business.
The food is good however I wish they could focus a bit more on customer service. They don’t offer many delivery options and DoorDash isn’t able to accommodate orders (ex- if you don’t want buddah sauce you have to call in and ask, might not get anyone to answer) and the meals don’t clearly state what comes with it.
Ex- lamb chop meal says sides and photo has mash potatoes but if you want to sub that for Mac and cheese you don’t have that option.

Being on GrubHub would also be very helpful!“

“Wonderful environment, delightful atmosphere, Delicious food and extremely friendly employees is what greeted me. Definitely will return.“

“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“

“The lines can get long, but that doesn't bother me. Just know to leave time. Batter-fried cheese curds instead of breaded. They are oily, but that's the nature of batter-fried cheese curds. Good selection of summery lakeside food. I love the old buildings in the area.“

“When I went, they weren’t busy at all, and the staff prepared my coffee flight quickly. She was okay. They were good and I love coffee flights because I can try different flavors, but it didn’t make me want to come back to get their coffee flights again. I’ve had coffee flight in my town and in Omaha, I like theirs better. (Other coffee places use normal shape small glass cups for flights and I think that’s better because they are more steady and easy to carry. These skinny flight drink cups are light and not steady, I almost spilled all when I was opening the door to go the patio area upstairs)“

“The coffee and treats are excellent, great staff, and a lovely space in the atrium to sit for a few.“

“So 49ER Day party at Crave Rooftop was a lot of fun and the food was delicious.

I was pretty surprised at how extensive their menu was. Oftentimes, when restaurants have a lot of items and different types and styles, it isn't always good.

But when I tell you my bison burger and wings were very tasty. There was lots of flavor and made just the way I wanted. I don't like my wings swimming in sauce, so I asked for light sauce on my wings, and they listened, and it was just how I like.

Their menu even has a gluten sensitive menu as well as a plant based menu. I was impressed with their options.

If you find yourself in downtown Minneapolis, you should definitely check them out. You will not be disappointed!“
