New American Restaurants near Spring Lake Park, MN

“Brie is THE BEST Bartender, she is Kind and Efficient! Played Etabs and Enjoyed Drinks! 5 STARS ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Seth was a fabulous waiter and the food was delicious- elevated food for a cool sports bar. And even better service“

“Some odd industrial music choices and higher volume when packed didn't impede my enjoyment of our absolutely delicious drinks, gnocchi, halibut, or steak. Service and food were lovely throughout, just be prepared to have to shout a bit to converse~“

“We had a fabulous dinner with another couple. Food was great, table was great, service was very good. Disappointed that no staff told us that 26% charges were automatically included. My fault for not inspecting the itemized bill closer i would have expected staff to share that a 21% gratuity was already included (not to mention an additional “administrative “ fee was also included) before I added an additional 20% gratuity.“

“We hired Brasa Catering for our wedding and couldn't happier with the food and service they provided. We received multiple comments that it was "one of the best wedding meals they've had" from a few guests. Not only was the food delicious, but the crew was extremely kind and went above and beyond for us. Thank you again for everything, we'll keep you in mind for future events!“

“Restaurant is amazing! Steady Eddie every time. Creative, well crafted, beautifully curated pre fixe tastings. Highly recommend!“

“The food is tremendous. 🦞 with linguine a friend had suburb. Pork 🍔 with blueberry ketchup was delicious. The 🍊 🐔 nice and spicy. The Korean hogie with Kimshi could have used more kinship for my wife's liking. Still tasty. Amazing beer selection. Anna was a great server. With a busy Friday night she was on top of her tables needs. We celebrated a birthday with a cute dessert delicious. Thank you.“

“We had Crave do another one of our yearly April Gala + Award Shows. This year they did our open bar at Union Depot's Red Cap Room in St. Paul. They were EXCELLENT! The bartenders were personable and professional. They provided a signature cocktail for our event that was great. Having them at our event was exactly what we were looking for and they executed it perfectly. Five Stars.“

“Located in a beautiful space on the first floor of the IDS Center. I stopped in for a happy hour and I'm so glad I did.

Happy hour aside, I would come back just for their hummus (and a beer). I generally don't care for hummus but this was noteworthy.

Their smash burger was my ideal burger. It was simple but with classy ingredients.

I definitely recommend sitting at the bar, they have a frost rail that keeps your drinks ice cold. Maybe it was that rail, but even their water tasted especially great.“

“We enjoyed a pleasant pre-concert dinner. Our experience was very positive, beginning with a friendly greeting from the person at the check-in desk, and continuing with attentive service from our very charming waitress. We chose two basic items from the wide-ranging menu, and both were winners. A huge chopped salad topped with blackened shrimp, big enough to share. And a half-pound burger that was cooked to order and accompanied by a large serving of crispy fries. A tasty serving of ice cream was a perfect ending to our dinner.“

“The tot has become a must have for me!“

“My friend and I had an incredible time at Owamni. My compliments to the chef. Truly one of a kind experience. The food was outstanding from start to finish ( presentation, flavor profile, texture, all natural and full of character). There’s not a place that’s more unique than Owamni in Minnesota, in my opinion . I highly recommend this establishment, and I wish you prosperity and success.“

“Quaint little joint in NE in a residential area. \nThe bar is nice & big- looks like a good happy hour place. \nWe sat at one of the tables up front. We had the cheese dip with crostini for our appetizer. Good flavor. We needed more bread to enjoy the whole ramekin of cheese. For dinner we had the bolognese- nice thick noodles, very filling! We also enjoyed the prime steak & the smoked pork chop. At the best I’ve ever had but still a nice meal.“

“Best food in Mpls! Great staff/service. Chef is AMAZING!“

“-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.“

“Even tho, there are interesting things on the menu, I got the cheeseburger. OMG, best ever!
And the truffle fries - tasted of truffle without being way too greasy. We had a 2nd order for the table.
It's a special, soulful place, our group were all very happy“

“Borough is fantastic. Great food and service and the atmosphere is wonderful.“

“Amazing! We stopped here for our first time for pre-event drinks with our friends. We anticipated having one cocktail and being on our way, but were instead treated to something more akin to an experience! The GM greeted us and took our order and made sure we got to try more than just our drinks. A whole story about finding someone to re-tie my husband’s bow tie turned into a hilarious challenge for most of the staff. Even to the point that the assistant GM was going to drive to Von Maur while we finished our drinks (we declined..but wow). What kind of place does this!? Our cocktails were amazing, the charcuterie plate was delicious (the jam, honey, and cheese…just wow). But most of all, the staff made everything so memorable. We’ve never experienced anything like this! We will be back soon for a full dinner. Thank you for making our night so enjoyable!“

“Highly recommend, incredible fine dining experience. Especially when paired with wine selections. We go at least twice a year and have never been disappointed.“

“Excellent food! Great wine!♥️“

“Best food ever and the staff is awesome!! Visit this restaurant, you will not be disappointed!!“

“This place is legit top restaurants in msp, why??? Because they have talent and imagination. Any one can buy great ingredients and high end products, but can you make sidewalk grass , spruce pine , lingcod , wildrice and strawberry taste good ?(Not a real dish just something off top of my head) That's talented and worth talking about , the folks here have talent. And if your looking for adventure of the palette look no further.“

“We had a blast, we bought a package combo including a cocktail and 27 holes on the 3 courses they have. The facilities was decorated for Xmas which was awesome.
There are 3 separate bars, so we didn't have to wait around for a drink, the putt courses were awesome and the touch screen score keeping was convenient.
We will definitely be back!!“

“Amazing food, good service, lovely patio“

“love it. awesome service“

“Excellent service! Abbi W was our server and she made the dinner so much better! Good food doesn’t matter without good service. We will definitely be back and ask for Abbi!“

“Loved this place. Great food and service“

“Visiting Pittsburgh and this was a great stop with a friendly staff (Kudos Tyrone) and great drinks! Fun time with the putt putt (beat my husband). If in Pittsburgh area this is a must stop!“

“I really recommend this place to eat. The food was delicious 🤤“

“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.“

“I got the Bison Back Ribs served over polenta with a gastrique (that was a new one to me). Surprising to me, the polenta and gastrique stole the spotlight. I also got to try my friend's Ribeye Bolognese. It was hard to say which was better“

“I ate at Milton's VVB tonight with my husband. The food was amazing, but the service was even better! The waitress was honestly the best waitress I've ever had! So friendly and funny! I was blown away! Shout out to Wafaa for taking good care of us! We hope to be able to visit Milton's again and again!“

“The staff are friendly and efficient. Their prices are reasonable.“

“Excellent service! Abbi W was our server and she made the dinner so much better! Good food doesn’t matter without good service. We will definitely be back and ask for Abbi!“

“Made the reservation on short notice, on a Friday evening.\nThe hostess at the front desk could not have been more accommodating, especially considering that we had two infants in tow.\n\nService was very slow, entirely due to how busy the restaurant was (last Friday before Christmas), but also very courteous. The server apologized numerous times for how long we had to wait for our meals to arrive, but we had no real complaints.\n\nAppetizers, entrees, and desserts were all excellent.\n\nMy second time at Crave, and I will return again often, and recommend it to others.\n\nThanks for a lovely evening - \n\nDS“

“We inquired with 30+ venues around the metro area, toured Campus Club and fell in love with the venue and location instantly. We lucked out with great weather on our wedding day so we were able to have our ceremony out on the terrace with beautiful views of the skyline. The venue is all on one floor, so the bar, reception area, and outdoor terrace are all easily accessible and available to you and guests throughout the whole entire evening. The reception area has floor-to-ceiling windows with views of the Minneapolis skyline as well. We received many compliments on the venue and views, and we were even told by some guests that the food is the best they've ever had at a wedding. Mollie was absolutely wonderful to work with throughout the whole entire process- very professional, responsive, flexible, and personable. And Denise (the manager) and day of staff were also amazing; they provided exceptional customer service and ensured everything the day of our wedding flowed smoothly. Would highly recommend this venue to anyone! All around a beautiful space and wonderful staff to work with! While these are not professional photos, they do a great job of capturing the breathtaking views (and just how great the food was 😉)“

“Absolutely delicious food! I can’t wait to go back“

“Their wings are delicious and we had excellent service today. I’m ready to go again.“

“Bricks is one of our go-to spots, my husband and I are there monthly, and for good reason. The bar setup is awesome, the service is always top-notch, and the menu never misses. We know we’re getting incredible food every time, which keeps us coming back. The pizza and burgers? Unbeatable. The truffle fries? An absolute must. And if you haven’t tried the corn dip yet, do yourself a favor and order it... it’ll be a permanent starter in your rotation after one bite. Every visit leaves us happy and satisfied, and the consistently great experience is why we love Bricks so much. Huge thanks to the team for always delivering!“

“Great place! Great food! Great service. Loved the patio for lunch. Ivy was incredibly professional and gave great customer service.“

“Great entertainment set up The food was okay but way overpriced and I really didnt enjoy eating in the dark ! Next time I would just go and have a drink and an appetizer or dessert . I would stop somewhere else for food“

“the food was absolutely amazing!! This is our new favorite place!“

“I love the Steak and eggs!!!!“

“Jackson's Hole gas pretty good happy hour drink specials“

“1st time was a great experience. Service could not have been friendlier. Prices not as steep as some other East African restaurants. Each got a “half” portion for $15. Plenty of food! (Next time will split the “full” portion for $20.) Rice was a standout.“

“This stand had great french toast with pop rocks. The lines went fast. The service was good. I would come here again when visiting the fair.

Vegetarian options: Meatless meals available.

Dietary restrictions: They had meatless meals.

Kid-friendliness: They have food kids would like.

Wheelchair accessibility: No stairs. The lines would get in your way more than anything.“

“Great service. Great atmosphere. Nice way to start an evening out with friends.“

“We had yet another fantastic dining experience at The Exchange, and this visit truly exceeded all expectations! From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was vibrant and inviting, setting the perfect tone for a memorable evening. Our server, Angela, was an absolute gem, her enthusiasm for the menu and her attentive service made all the difference.

She went above and beyond, sharing her favorites and suggesting delightful pairings that enhanced our meal. Angela’s warm personality and genuine care made us feel like we were the most important guests in the restaurant.

We decided to try the Cuban sandwich, and it was nothing short of spectacular! The combination of flavors was harmonious, with perfectly grilled bread and succulent fillings that danced on our taste buds.

As we dined, the atmosphere buzzed with laughter and the clinking of glasses, adding to the excitement of the evening. Each bite of food felt like a celebration, and we savored every moment.

Overall, it was an amazing dinner that transcended our expectations, and we can’t wait to return for another culinary adventure at The Exchange!“
