- JJunichiMinneapolis - St. Paul •40 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoCurrently I have to use a cane to walk and I made it known when I booked the reservation. Upon arrival we were asked what works best, a table or booth. Since the chairs at the tables are armless we went with a booth. Now on to the dining. Our server promptly greeted us and said he will be back quickly to take drink orders and to tell us about the specials. And he was and he did. My friend had a small salad and a small risotto. I had the linguine de mare. Everything was delicious and the service was excellent, including the lady who made sure our water glasses were filled and took away used utensils and dish ware. Zelo is configured to handle just about any size group. It has wonderful food and service and is more relaxing than some of the other more expensive restaurants on Nicollet Mall.More infoZeloPrice: Moderate• Italian• Downtown / North Loop•4.8
- DdawnVIPMinneapolis - St. Paul •53 reviews5.0Dined on Jan 24, 2025We stopped in after being at the Boat Show at the convention center all day. We were able to be seated at a lovely table in the bar area and had great service while we were there. Drinks were provided quickly, water was refilled often. The food we chose was amazing. Two of us had the Ruth's Classics with the Filet & Shrimp, the Filet & Lobster and the third in our party had the Ribeye. Everything was amazing - served hot and fresh. So much flavor and quality. Everything was so enjoyable & relaxing. Even though it was the end of the night, we did not feel rushed and were still given every consideration. Wonderful experience!!More infoRuth's Chris Steak House - MinneapolisPrice: Very Expensive• Steakhouse• Downtown / North Loop•4.7
