Best Restaurants for Birthdays in South St. Paul

10 out of 10, perfect meal. Spinach artichoke ramekin? Amazing. Served with a piping hot French baguette. Crab stuffed salmon? Amazing. Creamy and succulent with just the right sear. Ribeye with Parmesan mashed potatoes? Amazing. Old fashioned? Perfect. Service? Perfect. Attentive without hovering. Love this place and we'll definitely be back.

We had Javen for the second time as our server. Can't say how lucky we were. He is outstanding in everyway. We will make sure we request him on our next visit. Great service and great food. We asked to speak to the manager to inform her that Javen goes above and beyond satisfy guest. Thank you the Jackson's

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.

I am in a wheelchair normally. We arrived with a reservation during a snowstorm. There was handicapped parking listed on the website and it was open and easy to use right by the valet parking. My husband went in and they seated us right away in a very handicapped accessible area. I did not need to use my wheelchair it was so nice. The wait staff is superb. The bar staff really knew their stuff. Wish more wines on the menu that were not from California. The food was superb. This is a very special occasion restaurant my family has been to for years for family birthdays, Valentine's Day, anniversaries. It never disappoints. It was hard when they closed to remodel but when they reopened, we were back and it was a beautiful space. My family was in St. Paul. We are in Cambridge and we still drive there.

Boca Chica has been a tradition for our family every Valentine’s Day 8 years running. My parents used to come here in the late 60’s, early 70’s when it was just a small handful of tables. It’s been a hallmark in our family for over a half century. I eat Taco house for lunch many times a month…..probably more than I should admit. Best refried beans in town imo.
