Not worth the money at all. Food had nice presentation but no depth of flavor. Was bland and overpriced. Literally have no idea why this place has 4.9 stars, I guess it’s because the food in Minnesota generally sucks compared to other places in the country/major cities.

Server was super annoying, checked in on us too many times to the point where we felt rushed. I was the only minority in there. Would NOT come back.

This place is incredible. The food, drinks, and service was just lovely. They must have some rule that says you can’t work here unless you are full of personality and an absolute ray of sunshine because the staff was wonderful. I’ve been to a million places in the twin cities, and I’ve never felt so strongly about how awesome the staff was. Robin was an excellent server and made the best recommendations. The pica pau, rissoles, and rigatoni were FIRE. Don’t hesitate to book Estelle. And also THE HONEY CAKE.

Food was excellent! Our server was great as well. Not sure the overall experience was worth the higher prices -- only giving 4 stars for a couple of reasons.

First, the hostess seemed to skip over us multiple times -- we had a reservation for a specific time as a party of 2 people. Three other parties also of 2 people each all arrived after us, but were all seated before we were. From what we overheard, it sounded like they all had the same reservation time as us as well. We had arrived a few minutes before our reservation time and waited more than 20 minutes after our reservation time to be seated. The wait on its own was not the issue as much as being skipped over three different times.

Second, when we were finally seated, it was at the bar overlooking the kitchen, which was way too warm to sit comfortably for three courses of a meal due to how close it is to the stoves etc.

GO SEE CESAR. Best meal in a long time and best shrimp EVER. Cesar made us feel special and gave perfect recommendations. We were here on a quick getaway from Manitoba but will make a point to come again!

Everything else folks called out food wise is spot on so I want to focus on the human aspect of this fantastic place… everyone (and I mean everyone) was just wonderful. You can really tell folks enjoy working here and it shows in the service and the food. We will be back! Thanks for a really lovely evening.

Lovely and crispy potatoes with a delicious tomato based sauce. The burger was the best in the cities and the piri piri chicken was cooked to perfection. I am genuinely impressed. I have dined in several fancy restaurants in the cities and this is in the top three. Have to come back! Also best old fashioned in the cities.

My boyfriend and come here every year for our anniversary, and each visit is better and better! Robyn, our server, was so kind and accommodating and took the time to answer questions and chit chat with us. Food is fantastic as always and although it’s a busy restaurant, the noise level is never excessive. Looking forward to many more years to come!

Greatly enjoyed our time celebrating a friend's birthday at Estelle. The servers (and nearby cooks) were very helpful with the drink and food menu and always nearby. Out party of 6 enjoyed 3 tapas and 3 large courses, which were all about the same size portions. A few more options and smaller tapa sizes would be fun for sampling more of the good food.
