Mill Valley Kitchen

Sat out on the patio on a fab sunny day, had the kimchi bowl, friend goes here regularly, and I see why.

I was there for the first time today and the staff were absolutely lovely! The ambiance was beautiful and it's a relaxing place to be. I wasn't a fan of the flatbread I ordered and the staff were so accommodating and kind and the solved the issue right away! I definitely recommend Mill Valley Kitchen. 👍

Mill Valley Kitchen: My Go-To Happy Hour Spot with Farm-Fresh Flavors & Cozy Vibes

If you’ve never been to Mill Valley Kitchen in St. Louis Park, stop what you’re doing and go. I’ve been here many times—for birthdays, casual dinners, and of course, happy hour—and each visit just reinforces why this spot is one of my local faves.

Let’s talk about my most recent happy hour adventure. First off, the mussels. Oh. My. Gosh. They come swimming in this rich, flavorful broth that just begs to be soaked up with some grilled baguette. Pro tip: order extra bread. Trust me—you’ll want to mop up every last drop.

Next up: the wings. These aren’t your average bar wings. They come with a tangy sauce, crave-worthy sauce that hits all the right notes—sweet, spicy, and just messy enough to feel like a good time. Pair that with their salmon sliders (yes, they’re as amazing as they sound) and you’ve got yourself a winning combo.

Now, let’s talk shrimp tacos. Perfectly grilled shrimp, fresh toppings, all wrapped up in a soft shell—these were absolutely packed with flavor. I could have eaten three more and still wanted more!

And while I’m not usually one for falafel, Mill Valley might’ve just changed my mind. Their new happy hour version had my vegan friend absolutely glowing—and after sneaking a bite (okay, maybe two), I can confirm: not dry, not bland. Just straight-up delicious.

The dessert shots here? To. Die. For. Just the right size to satisfy your sweet tooth without going overboard. Whether it’s the chocolate mousse, lemon curd, or whatever seasonal treat they’ve got going—don’t skip dessert. You’ll thank me later.

The ambiance here is a whole vibe. Cozy interiors with chic, modern decor that screams relaxed sophistication. And the patio? Tucked away from the road, it’s peaceful and private—none of that loud, traffic-filled outdoor dining you get elsewhere.

I do have one teeny-tiny complaint: they’ve taken the flatbreads off the happy hour menu. I miss them deeply. But with everything else still this good, I’ll survive.

Whether you're catching up with friends or just need a midweek treat, Mill Valley Kitchen delivers every time. From the fresh, farm-to-table flavors to the warm, welcoming atmosphere—this place just gets it right.

Excellent spot for lunch. Make a reservation. They seem taken by surprise if you show up without one.
