"Verdant Loring Park looms large through the floor-to-ceiling windows at Cafe & Bar Lurcat. Take in views of the shimmering lake from the chic dining room and order a selection of small plates to share (think ginger fried rice, steak tartare, and citrus beet cured salmon). Pair them with a half bottle of chardonnay." - Justine Jones, Eater Staff
"This sprawling patio on the edge of Loring Park is at its prettiest when the afternoon fades into dusk. Go for small plates like hamachi crudo and poached oysters." - Justine Jones, Eater Staff
"Floor to ceiling windows let in the golden-hour sunlight, with a panoramic view of Loring Park from the northwest corner. Small plates and appetizers are a good route with a wider range of flavors from the menu. Date night specials on Sunday evenings for visiting this romantic restaurant on a budget. If the date is going well: Take a stroll through the serene Loring Park, while holding hands (maybe?) Or cross the bridge over Hennepin Avenue into the iconic Minneapolis Sculpture Garden to see Minnesota’s most photographed spots: Cherry and Spoon." - Megan Sheley
"Lurcat always hosts a huge party for Pride and this year is no exception. The restaurant and bar overlooking Loring Park will have a huge disco party with two dance floors, the Surly beer truck, plenty of bars and drink stations. The party goes from noon until 7pm." - Joy Summers
"This hip venue dishes out some seriously delicious food in a unique atmosphere. Located right on the corner of Loring Park, you can enjoy views of the park and people watch right from your table through their floor to ceiling windows. Lurcat’s diverse flavors are paired with a global list of 200 wines and makes for a perfect work Happy Hour or a special occasion date night. Their small plates are a great option for sharing and trying a variety of food they offer. If you happen to be in Minneapolis on a great summer evening, check out their dreamy patio with music and trees covered in twinkle lights." - Spyder Trap
