Best Italian Restaurants in Northeast Minneapolis

Beautiful space. Delicious food and drinks. Dont be fooled by bad cutlery! Despite struggling to cut my steak, it was a tender, melt in your mouth filet. Perfectly cooked. Waiter (Cole?) was very prompt and friendly. I appreciated him being present when needed but not overly hovering so we could talk on our rare date night out of the house. Appetizers and entree portions were appropriate for the price. Food and drinks came to the table quickly despite it being Valentine’s Day - I would usually expect slower times due to busier day. Reservations worked perfectly, walked in the door and brought immediately to our table. Had asked for a booth in our reservation if possible and we got seated in a booth. Hostesses were all very nice. I couldn’t have asked for a smoother, more pleasant experience. As a working mom who rarely gets to get out of the house for fun, or out on a date night - I couldn’t have been happier.

The food was fantastic. The attention to detail and customer service was excellent. Michael was the best server - had great suggestions and allowed us time to enjoy our time. Wonderful place to dine.

When you walk into Bacio for Happy Hour or dinner it's always a vibrant atmosphere! Last night was no exception, in fact it was super electric by the time we arrived for our early 5:45 dinner reservation. It was a combination of early Valentine celebrations along with their special Cajun additions for the season! The specials were fabulous, felt like you were in the kitchen of Commander's Palace in New Orleans! Courtney knew what we liked and made some very good recommendations! Courtney is one of our favorites! Don't know how long the Cajun specials will be on the menu, but check them out before they're gone! And, if they are gone, there are plenty of great items that will never disappoint you!

Excellent food and service. Great people working here!!

We were seeing a show nearby and looking for a quick bite to eat so we tried out Mother Clucker's because how do you walk past a place with that name and not go in? It was SO GOOD. Seriously. The bartender was so nice and recommended the chicken sandwich with mac as "fire." She was not wrong. So. Good.
