Thirty Bales is a celebration of everything Midwestern cuisine has to offer. We're an upbeat neighborhood restaurant bringing together bright personalities, bold recipes, clean ingredients and craft spirits and playing with the flavors that make the Midwest a place unlike any other.If you're curious about our name, it comes from the legend of Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox. As the story goes, Babe had an appetite as big as Bunyan himself and is rumored to have eaten 30 bales of hay a day.Like our restaurant's big blue spirit animal, we're a pack of people that lives to eat and drink. We're endlessly in love with the Midwest and its connection to seasonal ingredients grown close to home. It's what inspires our menu and our team. And it's what inspires us as we tell our own story with the flavors and spirits of the Midwest.

    Scandinavian food may not be for everyone, but I loved our winter salad, gravlax, and potato rosti. My lamb dish was delicious with a lovely glass of pinot noir. The restaurant is roomy, but felt intimate and warm. And the acoustics are perfect - my wife and I could talk with each other without shouting. Our server, Bart, was gracious and welcoming.

    We were hosting a small family gathering pre-Christmas show. Zelo was the perfect ‘appetizer’! It’s our favorite Minneapolis restaurant and never fails to impress. Food is delicious, ambience perfect and a special thank you to our server Erica who was the perfect mix of attentive without being intrusive.

    Went here for the first time with our adult daughter and her 3year old after a kids’ play at the theater across the street. It was busy but not packed. Waitress was great, told us it was busy for her and that she would try to give us the best service she could. We appreciated that information from her. The menu selection was good for our preferences. They were out of chicken fingers, but we got a cheeseburger instead for the three year-old All the food was high-quality with good flavors. My husband, especially like the sauce on his hamburger. I appreciated that the noise level was quite reasonable for a restaurant with a bar in the middle of it. The TV is in the bar area were not obnoxiously in our face, which we appreciated. Overall we give it high marks and we would return.
