27 Best Wine Bars in Minneapolis

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

“10/10 all around. The owner (Nico) and both chefs were absolutely so kind and helpful - we’re visiting for the weekend and not only did they give wonderful service but had the best conversations about where to visit and eat. The wine and charcuterie board were both spectacular! And the atmosphere was perfect exactly what we were looking for, very intimate but lively. If we ever visit again we will absolutely be back!!!“

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

“Delicious food, but a bit spendy for the portion sizes. Probably the closest thing I've found in MN to the tapas you'd find in Spain, but you're definitely paying a premium. A cool experience to try a bunch of different tapas with a group of friends, but just know that you might end up spending about $50 each or so. When I visited, it was really loud there and kind of hard to hold a conversation with the people next to you, so keep that in mind if you're looking for that.“

“The vibe, view and ambiance are stunning, super cute, and very instagramable: my Gen-Z opinion ;).
I went there for a work lunch, and the vibe fit very well. We had a Smash burger with a pickle, a chicken sandwich with a small portion of coleslaw, and a salad. Substitutions were able to be made easily and came out correctly. Just so you know, entrees not coming with a side is something you need to know in advance. The food tasted very well, was well-flavored, and had a good portion size. Overall, very good experience and would come here again for any occasion. The outside seating looks great for the summer.“

“Phenomenal dining experience!!\nDifficult to choose from so many choices!! Quality is amazing, portions are generous, and scrumptious!!\nWe enjoyed the octopus, bruschetta with ricotta and tomatoes, mushroom confit, branzino and pasta with tuna. \nOur served, Sidney, was professional, kind, and very careful with our food allergies. She’s an incredible asset to your restaurant!!\nWho would have thought you could get such an incredible Italian meal in Minneapolis? This place is a must!!“

“-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.“

“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!“

“Great business that cares about our future, city, and ALL of the people of Minnesota! Viva NightingaleMPLS!“

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

“Food was AMAZING!! My hubs and I shared prosciutto fried bread, WOW!!! I had the halibut, AMAZING!! So mNy flavors and cooked ro perfection.
My hubs had the burger so I snagged a bite and it was also so delicious. The cheese on the burger was so flavorful, it was the white cheddar ( picking my lips). I want to go back tonight. Ill be dreaming of the food for weeks.“

“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.“

“We had a great dinner last week with our family of eight! Bethany was our server and she was fabulous!!“

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

“Wow!!! Went here to celebrate our wedding anniversary and the customer service exceeded all of our expectations. We arrived to a beautifully decorated table filled rose petals, received complimentary champagne, appetizer, and dessert. We ordered the ceasar salad, shrimp cocktail, surf and turf (tenderloin with lobster tails), kona coffee coated steak, lobster mac and cheese, and mashed potatoes. The steaks were cooked to perfection (medium rare) and the other dishes were delicious! Our server was knowledgeable, attentive, and very welcoming. We look forward to not only coming back but bringing our family as well.“

“One of the best restaurants I’ve ever been to. The food is DELICIOUS! This is one of the only restaurants I go to for the actual flavor of the food instead of convenience. I’m gluten free and eat mostly organic and other restaurants have a hard time comparing to my cooking. The gf focaccia is to die for and I’ve never had anything I didn’t like!“

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

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

“Well, you ruined me. I can never go out and get a ribeye at any other restaurant. I have one to two ribeyes a week at high end restaurants. Yours was supreme! There is no second place! The service was top notch from the hostess to the server to the expeditor to the table clean up. I only wished they were not 240 miles away!!“

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

“Restaurant quality food and drink for half the price and the best scenery in the twin cities.“

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

“I’ve now been here twice, both times with a reservation, and it just doesn’t live up to the hype everyone gives it. The food is delicious but I’d just recommend just going to the actual restaurant. No matter where you get seated it will feel cramped and you will be really close to your neighbors. The staff was super nice but rarely checked on us, it took an hour to get our first round of drinks BOTH times I’ve been.“

“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 turkey leg from The Kitchen by Baked Brand is straight fire🔥 so tender, flavorful, and addictive I could honestly eat one every day. The mac and cheese is hands down the best I’ve ever had creamy, cheesy, and perfectly baked. My only suggestion would be to leave the turkey leg whole, so I can enjoy breaking into it myself!“

“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.“
