The 25 Best Restaurants In Minneapolis 2024

"Dario’s pastel pink chairs and green cushion booths are so aesthetically pleasing you might worry it's one of those spots where the food doesn’t live up. But it absolutely does—they take pasta seriously, even if your casual date night is all giggles while splitting small plates. Our heart belongs to the doppio ravioli, filled with separate pockets of sunchoke and ricotta before being drizzled with honey. The cocktail menu leans into bitter spirits, but drinks are still balanced, especially the Bad Apple mixed from brandy, vermouth, and amaro. When it comes to dessert, the affogato with a generous scoop of thick vanilla ice cream and a sharp shot of espresso is worth losing a little sleep over." - stacy brooks
