Mediterranean flavors with stunning sculpture garden views

























"Experience art from a unique vantage point — both the dining room and patio of the Walker Art Center’s full-service restaurant overlook the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden. Pair a glass of chilled sangiovese with the lamb shawarma, or stop by at brunch for Turkish eggs with potato churros. Book a table via Resy." - Eater Staff


"A museum restaurant on the ground floor that defies the museum-restaurant stereotype; patrons are encouraged to claim patio seats for a view of the museum's iconic sculpture garden and to enjoy lively people-watching—art students with sketch pads, children playing around the Spoonbridge and Cherry pond, and well-heeled young professionals heading to the museum cinema. The museum also programs a rooftop miniature golf course with 10 new artist-designed holes each year during summer." - Julie Yu

"This restaurant inside the Walker Art Center is dishing out some serious food served by a high-end staff in a moody, yet striking ambiance. Add to that a menu designed by one of the best chef’s in the nation, Doug Flicker, and it’s the perfect recipe for a successful happy hour, brunch, or dinner. If the date is going well: Head upstairs to enjoy the epic views of the Minneapolis skyline over some artist-built mini golf during sundown (just check the hours before planning on putt-putt)." - Megan Sheley

"Esker Grove’s Pride on the Patio begins at 10 am and runs until 5 pm. There will be a DJ, slushie drinks and killer views of the sculpture garden. The cocktails here are known for kicking ass plus the brunch menu is wildly popular." - Joy Summers

"Grab dinner on the patio at the Walker Art Center’s elegant-but-casual Aegean and Mediterranean restaurant." - Justine Jones
