   Due to traffic from Bloomington to downtown St. Paul traffic taking 45 minutes for less than 20 minutes, we were late for our 6 pm and we needed to wait for a table to be cleared. We asked our server to expedite our service to finish our meal by 7 pm so our guests with walkers could walk to the Ordway and find their seats for the 7:30 performance. We promptly ordered a beverage and an entree, ate our meal, received our check, were ready with our credit cards and left at 7 pm, a heroic performance by our server and the kitchen. Our guests with walkers were very impressed with the first experience at Kincaid’s downtown St. Paul. Many thanks!

   The food was outstanding. Best crab dip I've ever had. And getting fresh seafood is hard in Minnesota - not so at Kincaids. Front of the house personnel were spectacular.

   Kincaids is always a place to eat for special occasions--such as the high school hockey tournament. We rotate between a number of downtown St. Paul restaurants that weekend. The food was excellent; the noise level understandably loud. The service was a bit erratic, though we still got our entrees in a timely manner.

   Great food. Sadly we had a server who really was not present nor checked in with us throughout the meal. Usually here staff is impeccable, just not tonight.

   We loved the great 3-course dinner special for $49. And we appreciated the professional service & the low noise level. Kincaid’s is a beautiful spot for a delicious meal in a setting that truly allows for dinner conversation.

    From Landrys in Branson, to M&S, and our favorite Kinkaid's in St. Paul, we have always had a pleasant experience from the entrance and reception to dessert. That doesn't happen in St. Paul. This is not the first, second, it is already a custom that that individual, "gentleman", who we assume has to welcome us, at least with two words, good afternoon, and perhaps welcome. No, nothing like that. It seems that we owe him something, because that man is always in a bad mood. We don't deserve that treatment. After that odyssey, the rest of the night was fantastic, with the family, at a very special dinner and served as always with great professionalism by our favorite waitress. The rest is history. The delicious menu and the entire atmosphere spectacular.
