French restaurant · Downtown

"Meritage is all you could ask of a French brasserie transported to downtown St. Paul. The crescent bar serves oysters and Parisian cocktails (think: an absinthe-soaked sugar cube dropped into a glass of Champagne). But if a full meal is in order, chef Russell Klein’s menu features a daily preparation of Au Bon Canard foie gras, and tray of escargot in an irresistible garlic butter parsley sauce. The Magret duck breast a l’orange is worth the price tag." - Justine Jones, Eater Staff
