"A Minneapolis restaurant where the chef worked later in his career and discovered the creative possibilities of chef’s-table and tasting-menu formats, shaping his interest in curated, narrative-driven dining experiences." - Cinnamon Janzer
"Icehouse makes good use of its shady green space outside and small deck. Casual fare like fried green tomatoes and smothered burritos suits the season." - Justine Jones
"Icehouse, Eat Street’s premiere music venue, also serves a great meal. Southern flavors shine on this menu of savory crawfish beignets, smoky vegan etouffee, and cheesy shrimp and grits. Fend off a hangover with an Icehouse brunch — the bloody mary options are endless, from a bacon bloody garnished with a tiny donut to a spicy variety made with green chili vodka." - Natalia Mendez
"Cloistered in the privacy of the chef’s bar with full view of the kitchen, Matthew Bickford’s tasting menu is one of the best deals in town. With two seatings daily and both a 10- and 5-course option, there are options for every kind of diner. From supple handmade pastas to decadent desserts, pull up a chair and leave dinner in Bickford’s capable hands." - Julie Yu
"Icehouse consistently serves one of the essential brunches in the Twin Cities inside a rock n roll music venue space on Eat Street. Dive into one of their famous bloody Mary’s and toast another year of being Mom’s favorite." - Joy Summers
