The service and ambiance was above average. The food is marginal at best. The porchetta was over salted, the chickens that came with the pasta (as recommendation of the waitress) was extremely dry.The spinach and artichoke dip was fantastic, the lone highlight food-wiseWe sat across from a table who's waitress didn't come back to their table for nearly 35min after ordering drinks and the restaurant was 80% full. Just not a good look. To the restaurants credit, they comped the appropriate dishes.

WA Frost has a very special place in my heart! The food, service and ambiance is nothing short of impeccable. You really feel like you’re a part of history being in there! Best restaurant in the Twin Cities!

I had planned a beautiful night out at a fine dining establishment, expecting a wonderful experience. I called ahead to confirm that reservations were not required, as it was a slow Thursday evening on 3/21. We dressed up for the occasion, and I dropped my date off at the door. However, she was informed that there were no available tables, despite several being visibly empty when I entered. Looking for my date I then was told that the dining area was closing early due to how slow it was, but we could sit in the bar area instead (different story then what she was told). This was not what I had hoped for, but I didn't want to cause a scene and spoil the evening.I found my date sitting at an unstable, rickety table, which was not the kind of experience I had envisioned at this establishment. Despite my initial impressions, we decided to order. Unfortunately, the Wagyu burger I ordered was chewy, resembling a rubber puck that had been frozen meat. My date's short rib seemed to have been pre-cooked and reheated with added water, lacking the freshness we expected.Had to ask for our drinks three times and the bartender was flat out rude. The restaurant wasn’t even full so apparently we weren’t a priority.With a bill exceeding $200, I can confidently say that the service was poor and the food quality was even worse. It's disappointing, as I had been looking forward to treating my date to an award-winning dining experience that had been advertised.

Just not what it used to be! New chairs would not hurt and for real a refresh on the decor ?? food quality varies with the staff.... Would probably come back in the summer for a glass of wine on the patio but not in any hurry...

YOUR SERVER, JADELYN, COULD USE AN ATTITUDE ADJUSTMENT & WORK ON HER SITUATIONAL AWARENESS.WE VISITED WITH RESERVATIONS ON 3/2. SAT. SAT. SAT. IN THE LITTLE SH*T CORNER.NO ONE GREETED US. NO ONE GAVE US WATER. LITTLE J WALKED PAST US MULTIPLE TIMES W/ NO ACKNOWLEDGEMENT. OVER 20 MINUTES INTO OUR RES AT 1912 HOURS, MISS THANG FINALLY APPROACHED W/ NO APOLOGIES AS TO WHY IT TOOK HER SO LONG TO GREET US & TOOK AN ORDER FOR ONE BOMBAY SAPHIRE-YOU REMEMBER J.SAID DRINK TOOK A HOT MINUTE TO GET TO US.I WAS ALREADY OUT OUT THE DOOR, BUT MY HUSBAND, BLESS HIS SOUL, TRIED TO BE NICE TO HER & GIVE HER A CHANCE-THAT IS, TIL SHE TOOK ANOTHER HOT MINUTE TO RETURN TO TAKE OUR ORDERS.PRIOR TO THIS INTERACTION (OR LACK THEREOF) JADELYN ALREADY WALKED AROUND WITH SOME MAD RBF & EXUDED AN ATTITUDE THAT LET THE DINING ROOM KNOW SHE WAS NOT HAVING IT THAT EVENING FOR WHATEVER REASON.YES. WE PAID CASH. GAVE HER $15 ON A $14.12 TAB.IF I HAD EXACT CHANGE, I'D HAVE GIVEN EXACT CHANGE.COURSE ON OUR WAY OUT SHE MADE IT CLEAR SHE WAS NOT HAPPY WITH THAT, RIGHTFULLY SO, BUT TO RECEIVE GOOD REVIEWS & GOOD TREATMENT, YOU NEED TO PRODUCE GOOD SERVICE & ATTITUDE.
We had not visited for a few years because the last time we went, food was just meh. We were pleasantly surprised that the quality was back to what we had remembered. Lovely pumpkin bisque and a sparkling wine flight (a bargain at $17 for a glass and a half equivalent) started us off. I had the short rib on buttery grits, and my partner had the steak special....pricey but the best steak we had ever had...a terrific Wagyu flatiron. Perfect temperature, finishing salt, etc. Just perfect in every way. We split the pavlova for dessert. Service was refined but warm, and the glow from the fireplace and soft jazz made for a nice evening.

We went on a Friday evening for an anniversary including our young kid. Staff were attentive, they kept a nice fire next to us going, and general atmosphere was relaxing and cozy. My kid thought the chairs were a bit hard. The food tasted great, though know they are moderate servings (which I was fine with but my spouse was a bit dismayed, left room for dessert!). Kid was happy with the kid's menu. An interesting historical place with good food and service.

I had one of the worst restaurant experiences in a long time. There was a wedding party having drinks and everyone suffered. Waited 45 minutes for drinks, and at that point cancelled the order. The check was wrong and then had to wait further for that to be corrected. In reality we shouldn't have paid based on how miserable the experience was. Will also add that the table next to us with off duty WA staff got two rounds of drinks and meals while we waited for our first.Interestingly, we went across the street to Moscow, and the wedding party was there at that point, but had a completely different experience. Drinks immediately, food quickly. Goes to show what a bit of management and teamwork does.

Been here a few times now and everything is excellent, people complain about the service being slow I disagree. It's fine and well paced. It's all about the experience here. The waitress asked if we were in a hurry before we we're ordering explaining that she will pace our apitizers, drinks etc. We spent over 2 hours here by choice and had a lovely rich evening.
