Lindey's Prime Steak House

*if you get to the restaurant early, you are likely able to do a walkin. If anything, id recommend calling to place a reservation. Always a great experience, the staff is welcoming and are get to explain the difference between the cuts of meat. They cut the streak in front of you. We love the special as its more tender. Potato and salad are great as well. Limited menu items and thats why it's awesome! Bummer they are out of watermelon rinds. Server said they haven't been able to get them for a few months.

We were very excited to visit here but just weren't wowed by the food. The meat and bread were good but the salad and potatoes weren't. The potatoes were so salty we couldn't eat them. When there are only a handful of items to choose from, everything has to be on point and executed to perfection, especially when the prices are so high. Their soda was even flat, bar soda. The service was excellent, so that was really nice. Overall, not a place we would ever go again.

Lindey's Prime Steak House in Arden Hills, Minnesota, offers a dining experience steeped in nostalgia with its vintage vibes. The old-school decor and classic atmosphere provide a charming throwback, making it a unique spot for those who appreciate a retro dining environment. However, while the ambiance captures the spirit of a bygone era, the food unfortunately doesn't quite live up to expectations. The steak, which should be the star of the show, fell short in terms of flavor but was still a decent meal. Sides served family style, which was a nice change. The potatoes seemed a little over spiced while the mushrooms were delicious. Mushrooms almost being the star of the show isn't what you anticipate when going to a top steakhouse. Despite the subpar food, the attentive service and distinctive setting may still appeal to those looking for a trip down memory lane. For a truly memorable meal, though, you might find yourself wishing for a bit more substance to match the style.

Last night, in Shoreview, Minnesota, we rolled the dice on a place called Lindsey’s, just a stone’s throw from the luxurious Best Western (you know, the one with the lingering eau de urinal in the air). Seriously, what’s the deal with this part of the Twin Cities? Every place smells like Toto’s underpants after a bad roadie binge. Lindsey’s itself? Tiny, quaint even—probably served the same locals for generations. It’s got that “hole-in-the-wall but charming” thing going for it, and I’m sure Guy Fieri's been here at some point, slathering on his patented Flavortown nonsense. I didn’t dig too deep, though—there’s only so much mystery meat a guy can handle in one night. The service? Straight out of Fargo, I swear. Every waitress could’ve been Frances McDormand’s stunt double. Friendly as hell, but after hearing “Oh yeah, sure, you betcha!” about ten times, I wondered if they were all part of some Minnesotan Stepford experiment. Now, let’s talk about that menu. Four items, folks. That’s it. Two steak options that both involve a cow that could probably crush your car. And then they throw in a platter of family-style potatoes that could feed the whole damn state. I’m convinced this is where heart attacks are invented. The steak? Oh man, undercooked doesn’t even cover it. I swear, I’ve had cold sushi that was warmer. It was like chewing on cold leather mixed with seabass, but worse—because this slab of beef stuck in my throat like a block of ice, refusing to thaw out. Medium-rare, my ass; I was practically begging for fire. But the potatoes? Pure salvation. Well, except for a few weird spice bombs that exploded out of nowhere, sending my tastebuds on an unwanted detour through a chili pepper field. And then the moment of truth—when we asked Frances #3, in all her Minnesotan glory, for a couple of shrimp to go with the cow-sized steak. Her response was as expected: "Oh gosh, I’m so sorry, sir, but no. We don’t do substitutions here, don’t cha know? But you can get the whole shrimp order! Real sorry about that, sir, real sorry!" And that’s Lindsey’s in a nutshell: massive, undercooked steaks, peculiar rules, and the friendliest waitresses this side of the Mississippi. An experience? Hell yes. But I’m still waiting for that steak to finish cooking.

We stopped in for dinner with my parents. I'm glad they are fixing up the parking lot. I'm sure it will be very nice when it's complete but right now it Is a disaster zone. The menu is limited. I was dying for a vegetable side option in addition to what they have carrots, brocoli, anything. The potatoes were interesting and good, just needed to be seasoned at the table, the salad was fine for a side salad, the mushrooms are good but nothing to get overly excited about, the bread is solid nothing special but no omplaints, the au jus is probably the best part of the meal, just add some to the potatoes, but it is a requirement for that steak or it will have no flavor. For being a steak house, I think the steak really was the low hanging fruit of the meal. We opted out of dessert, but they have muddy paws cheesecakes, and I can not say enough nice things about those companies' cheesecakes, so get some if you stop in! Overall, I'm sure we'll be back. My father enjoys the location, and I loved watching an employee toss the squirrels left over bread outside!

Not impressed with our steak, especially for the price. Not much flavor. I used their chart and ordered medium rare but my slice of the family style serving was closer to rare and very chewy even though we ordered the more expensive special sirloin being told it was more tender. Loved the 🍄 . Do get them. Also liked the potatoes.

Another great experience. I had the pleasure of dining on a well-prepared steak, which is the restaurant's specialty in a concise menu. A quaint restaurant. (They also offer shrimp, along with complimentary refills on potatoes and bread.) The quality of the steak was exceptional, the service was friendly and thorough. The recently upgraded parking lot significantly improved the ease of parking. I also love the birthday discount.

We had a group of 11 order the main course on a Friday night. The place had good portions, nice service and atmosphere. The food was another story. Our group absolutely demolished every last trace of Lindey's mashed potatoes, the same can't be said for the medium rare Lindey's Special Sirloin. I've only eaten medium rare since I could walk and never have had a steak as red and raw in the center. We burned more calories chewing than by absorbing everything. The silver lining was the sirloin's rich and buttery aujuis which enhanced the button mushrooms and made for a nice gravy on the potatoes. The medium rare seems more 'rare' and red-centered than most places. I would probably order medium next time. Service: 4/5 Atmosphere: 4/5 Food: 2/5 TIP: ***Ask for pink in center!***

Waitress very friendly and accommodating. Potatoes excellent and very tasty. Special sirloin didn't come out sizzling like we are used to getting. Is this something new? Also, the steak was cooked medium rare, but it was very chewy. We didn't finish our streaks. Our poodle enjoyed sirloin all week long.

The food, service, and space was great! Exactly what my brother and I were wanting for his birthday dinner. The steak was perfect and all of the sides were really good. Get the mushrooms! We will be going back!

Stopped here for my birthday club dinner. Got here early and enjoyed a table with a view and a nice quiet atmosphere. This iconic mainstay of the Twin Cities is decorated tastefully like a cabin and the staff are as nice as your grandma cooking you an amazing meal. It is also celebrating their 65th anniversary!! The menu has not changed and that is perfectly ok! Not many choices but every choice is the right one. There are 4 dinner choices and you can add two things-mushrooms and/or a piece of cheesecake. I ordered the Lindey's Special Sirloin with mushrooms. The special is the middle cut and the flavor was so delish. I ordered it medium rare and that's exactly how it came out. It's accompanied by a salad, garlic bread and a hashbrown potato dish. The mushrooms are a huge helping and are marinated and yummy. The salad was nice and fresh, the garlic bread comes out warm and the potatoes are a great comfort food. I also had a champagne cocktail and it was tasty. I love the ambience and the super friendly staff. This is a treasure of a place and I def recommend!!

Steak was quite good and of a generous siize, my wife truly enjoyed hers. I found mine to be a bit tough in one spot with some 'silver skin' or something still inside. That and it was actually undercooked in a portion due to its size. Still tasty though. I had ordered the Lindey's cut done medium and she had the regular cut done medium rare (a step below what I'd ordered). I dare say hers was the better steak overall. The hashbrowns are just smashed potatoes, nothing special there. Our sons had a grilled cheese sandwich and chips which was to me more expensive than it should've been. Soda was flat, something that I've noticed seems to be an epidemic at all the area restaurants in the past couple years. I had no cocktail as I didn't want to pay their prices for one. Wife had a couple and some wine. The wine was as expected while the drinks she said were a bit odd in flavors. The milk my son recieved was only cool not cold and he refused to drink it. It was quite load inside the place. We both. Oted thatbif a certain larger party would leave things awe would quiet down. They did leave but the noise level didnt change, making it difficult to have a conversation without being loud oneself. I finished my meal, the oil thers had leftovers to bring home. Dessert was variati ill nsnof a cheesecake or a chocolate cake, nothing special or notable there (likelynordered pre-made from the food service). Overall it was a decent meal, but not a dining experience either of us would pursue again in the future. Ruth's Chris has a better ambience and is certainly quieter, and though the steak may Ruth's is more expensive it is also much tastier, and has a somewhat larger menu to choose from to customize your meal. Lindey's has a set menu with just four choices. They do those four pretty well, but not en ok uhh to get us to come back on semi-regular basis. In.comparison we've been to Ruth's Chris three times this year already and have another visit planned for next month.

Came for birthday lunch today. Won't do that again. Bread wasn't ready and did not come until our meal. Plate wasn't sizzling like it usually does. Potatoes were so burnt and flattened like a pancake that we used a steak knife to cut through them. Waitress should not have served them to us. Steak was supposed to be med+, and it was very rare in the middle. Waitress left, and someone else took over. New Waitress, seeing we had steak left over asked "did you want a box?" ....um yes! We were never asked if we wanted anything else or offered new potatoes. Table next to us Waitress asked if they wanted some more potatoes to bring home First time we have not enjoyed ourselves. May be a while before we come back.

Everything!! Food, service and ambiance!! Been there since I was a young boy!! Now I'm bringing my grandkids there!!

This place is a classic! I take comfort in the fact that nothing has changed at this restaurant since my grandparents dined here decades ago. It's a classic steakhouse experience with just a few items on the menu that come with a slew of delicious sides. The steaks are definitely big enough to split, and I recommend adding a side of flavorful and juicy mushrooms. The best part is when all the food comes out on a trolley with the steak sizzling on a hot plate. Fun spot in the north metro for a date night!

Haven't been here in a couple years since I'm only out here for work a couple times per year. Place is great as always, steak cooked to you liking and the sides do not disappoint. I think I ate most of the mushrooms myself! We ordered one medium and one medium rare and they were perfect. The au jus on the side was phenomenal and the warm garlic bread did not disappoint.

Sad to say, this isn't the Lindey's of the 50s. I have strong memories of thick cuts of sirloin steak and the best grilled potatoes ever and crispy garlic toast you could use to scoop up the plentiful and tasty au jus. Maybe lunch is different but the steak sandwich was thin slices of sirloin lost on a huge bun! I asked for blue cheese on the steak, but got a slice of a processed blue cheese which didn't even melt, because I ordered my steak rare. Where were the crumbles?? Yuk. Disappointed in the garlic toast and the potatoes, too. Julie was our server and she was great! Sadly, I won't tromp down this memory lane again.

Service was great and server was very personable and helpful. The entrees are limited to steaks and shrimp. The steaks are large and thick. The cost is a fixed amount. The restaurant area is pretty noisy, which makes for difficulty to communicate. The noise is created by the customers attempting to communicate louder to be heard.

Super attentive staff and a nice old time atmosphere. Menu is streamlined to focus on great cuts of BEEF. Accompanied sides of salad (small) and hash potatoes were a disappointment... the potatoes were overly salty. Would prefer an option of baked potato with sides.

Great steaks in a cabin-like place. Great cocktails and love the interior decor; just like you're up north in a supper club. Go and enjoy!

Very good steakhouse for dinner tonight. This is the best steak imo perfectly cooked and served with pride

Food was a bit expensive, they have their own potato dish, was dry and not hot. Salad just lettuce and onion, no cucumbers, no tomatoes. Just plain. When you spend 100 for dinner + tip. The steak was good you had 3 choices and everything was alacart. I would have loved to get mushrooms but that would have been 10.95 extra. I kinda felt bad, it was my birthday, but I did not think it would be over 100.00. I probably won't go again. It was the tail end of their evening.

We love this place for celebrations with our friends. The restaurant was opened in the 60's and the dining room and menu have remained the same. Quintessential Minnesota supper club ambiance! The sides are unlimited and served family style. We've never gotten refills, though, because it's all so filling. Personally I like to slice my steak thin, put it between pieces of the garlic toast then dip it in the au jus drippings. I'm salivating just thinking about it! We love taking visitors from other parts of the country so they can experience Minnesota like a local.

Happy Anniversary!! We celebrated our 42nd anniversary here at Lindys today. We ordered the special sirloin steak dinner. We had their salad, garlic bread, potatoes, mushrooms and of course the steak. We had never ordered the mushrooms before. They were very good and really complimented the steak. We have lots of leftovers to take home too. This had to be one of our favorite places for steak. It is not cheap but for a special occasion its great. They do have a lunch menu during the day.

We celebrated our 42nd anniversary today at Lindys. So good!! We got their special sirloin dinner. It is not cheap but really tasty! We have lots of leftovers as well. We tried their mushrooms for the first time. They were very good!!

This is the first time my 64 years of life that I've gone to the 65 year old restaurant which I lived pretty close to for decades. It was worth the wait. It's brilliant lies in it being a family run restaurant where a member of the family is there to make sure people are doing well and that the chefs are doing their job. There's a very limited menu, including two amazing steaks, shrimp, and a ground sirloin. Our group got three of the steaks and one shrimp dinner It was very good! The potatoes were greaseless hashbrowns. The garlic toast was addictive. The mushrooms were above average. The price was decent for a restaurant if it's caliber. We will go back.

First introduced in 1964 while managing the space needle at the state fair. Came from the space needle in Wisconsin dells (summer job). Went back to school in the fall at UW. Went to work for Square D co. As a field engineer at several locations until transferred to MPLS. While there job entailed much customer entertainment. Favorite spot to go was Lindy's. Went back numerous times with customers and friends. Every time was worthy of a fantastic review. Last time there was 2022 while attending a funeral. Was like going back in time; service was excellent with food and cocktails being exceptional. Steak was as I remembered- adequate, done to perfection and delicious. No complaints from any body in my group. Now living in Green Bay and don't get back as much as I would like to but when we do get back you can be sure that we will be back.

This place is classic Midwest. The only green in my dinner was a limp iceberg salad with a "special" dressing -- it's like thousand island. Dinner came, we ordered rare and medium rare. Steak was great, potatoes were garlicky, mushrooms were divine. It's dim and old school inside. Loved to find Cali wines on the drink menu. Our waitress was awesome and made sure we had a great dinner.

Lindey's is a cozy little place tucked back in a mostly residential area. They focus on sirloin and that's really it. The menu doesn't have many options, but that's OK... just something to know in advance. When you order, you'll shortly thereafter be greeted with a huge basket of bread (which is solid) and some nice salad with homemade dressing. Both are "unlimited" which is a nice perk if you're into that sort of thing! The salad and bread are both what I'd call comfort versions, as they are not going to knock your socks off but feel a bit more homely. Unfortunately, we had some major misses on the drink menu as everything tasted way too watered down, like something you might get at a college bar. The exception being the Pink Squirrel that we closed the meal with. The main draw is the sirloin, we went with the top tier option and while not something I'd shy away from eating again, we were definitely left a bit unimpressed. First off, the medium rare was cold in the center and required further cooking after it first arrived. Secondly, it was a bit more tender than a typical sirloin, but nothing in the flavor profile really set it apart. Our Lindey's experience was very average, with a few minor ups and a cool atmosphere... but the drinks and steak left a lot to be desired.

A little gem in the middle of the Twin Citties, great steaks, a little step back in time!

The best neighborhood restaurant. Been around for yearssss as I remember going with grandparents and now my husband! Great food.

I've been coming to Lindey's since Jimmy Carter was president and I think I would have a hard time telling the difference between the food and atmosphere then, versus last night (other than the price). Their moto is that they are the "place for steak" and that is almost literally true. It is certainly not the place for variety (in a good way) or for vegetarians. The price has risen consistently, but it still represents an excellent value compared to the Ruth's Chris Steak, Capital Grill, Manny's, etc. The menu consists of four choices: Lindey's Special Sirloin ($37.95), Prime Sirloin ($36.95), Broiled Shrimp ($36.95), and Prime Chopped Sirloin ($29.95). In case that's too many choices, I'm gonna make it easy for you. What's the difference between the "Special" and the "Prime Sirloin," you ask? The Prime Sirloin is less tender, smaller, and you save a dollar. Does anyone ever order it? No. Why is it there (I don't think you want to get smaller and less tender for a dollar, do you?). No one (including the son of the original owner) knows, other than it's always been there. So we can eliminate the Prime Sirloin. I've been at a table that ordered the shrimp once. It wasn't a huge quantity of shrimp or anything special. Besides, why are you ordering shrimp at a steak house? We can safely eliminate the shrimp (and I love shrimp, so it's not personal). What about the Prime Chopped Sirloin? You know this is a hamburger, right? It's expensive for a hamburger and if it's for your kid, let them order the steak and you can eat the leftovers for lunch. Don't order a $26 hamburger. OK, so that leaves only one item left and that's the "Special." Of course, that's what you are going to order. Every. Single. Time. Pro Tip #1: Put some thought into how you want your steak done. I'm a "rare" kind of steak person, but "rare" for Lindey's means a cold (not warm) center. Unless you really are a cannibal, order medium rare or possibly medium. In fact, bump up your done category by one notch, no matter what you think you like. This makes it difficult for "well done" steak people, such as my wife. Last night, her steak was very pink (probably a "medium" for most places), so if you like well done (no steak shaming from me), order it VERY well done. Whatever you order (and we know what that will be, right?), the meal includes a salad, which is lettuce, one cherry tomato, and Russian Dressing, although they don't call it that. It's like Thousand Island Dressing. I like the dressing, so I like the salad. It's free, so don't kvetch. The meals also come with refillable potatoes, which are kind of a cross between mashed potatoes and hash browns. Refills are free. They are really tasty and if you ask nicely, they will refill it to go with your steak leftovers, which you probably will have. This is the second best part of the meal. They also give you baskets of garlic bread, which are really cut up hot dog buns with better and garlic and then toasted. Don't knock it until you try it. They are pretty addictive. You'll probably try making these at home, so don't laugh. Theoretically, also included, are little cups of pickled watermelon, which I always give to my wife because I think it's gross. Apparently, there is has been a food supply chain shortage of pickled watermelon, so these have been absent. I consider that a blessing. (Maybe they were shipped from North Korea.) Atmosphere: If you showed me a photo of the restaurant from 50 years ago versus now, there would be no way to peg a year to it, other than the quality of the photos. This places changes less than a house your grandparents lived in for 50 years. Fortunately, they never had shag carpeting, so that's a blessing. The ONLY changes I can cite are that they now take credit cards (relatively new and probably a radical and traumatic change) and you can make a reservation (advisable, especially on a Saturday evening). Service: Some of the wait staff have been there since Lincoln was president -- or nearly so. They know what they are doing, and are unfailingly nice, and will patiently explain the difference between the two steaks (if you did not believe my tutorial). The ratings will show that Lindey's has its detractors. I think that if you are looking for something fancy, or the hip new place, this isn't the place for you. If you want good steak, for a good value, in a place that's consistent, I recommend you give it a try. Pro Tip #2: Sign up for their birthday club and you will get a postcard that's worth $25 off your bill. No, it won't pay for your meal, but it's a pretty good free perk. Pro Tip #3: Weirdest perk of any restaurant I've been to: There is a postcard on the table to advise you of what they mean by "rare," "medium," etc. If you fill out the back of the postcard, they will mail it to you for free. My guess is that the postcard recipient has NEVER received a post-card, so this could be a valuable perk.

Great food, and friendly service. Great ur steaks and potatoes were hot and delicious. We will be back!

Service was excellent- very attentive, and quick. Menu selection at dinner extremely limited. Ordered the "special" sirloin which was supposed to be the best. Personally- wasn't impressed with the taste nor consistency. Mashed potatoes were good as was the dinner salad and the plentiful bread rolls were delicious. This place is tired. Not very mobility friendly- long ramp with limited handicap spaces, and ramp had multitude of broken spindles. I won't be back. My $40 for a steak dinner is best spent elsewhere.

Good food and just a laid back environment that reminds me of being up north. Friendly staff too!

Everything was fantastic. Only reason for a four was our server had no customer service skills at at all. Maybe said 10 words the whole time we were there. To bad kind of a downer for an otherwise wonderful experience.

It has been a while since we been here. Need to make this a much more regular visit. Phenomenal food and great service.

We had a great experience! The service and atmosphere was fantastic, and the food was just incredible! Every item we ate was so tasty. We ended up ordering one steak and sharing. More than enough food and actually took home some!

Found this little hidden gem today. Such a adorable place with nice atmosphere. Our waiter Adam R. was nice, polite and very informative. Food was delicious and very filling. Highly recommend coming here. Remember to do random acts of kindness as it will make you feel great. Happy Yelping

We had a 530 reservation for 4 people on a Friday night in January. We ordered the Lindeys special steaks plus drinks and dessert. At 7pm we were asked to leave because a birthday party was there for a 7pm reservation. Nobody told us in advance that it was a tight schedule and in addition, there were lots of seats available in our section, but they wanted Our seats for side by side tables. When I called afterwards to complain about how we were treated, the manager said, "an hour and a half a half is enough time." Cant 4 people can take 2 hours to relax and enjoy themselves and drop 200.00 without being harassed? We will never go back. There's alot of quality restaurants with nice management, we will take our business elsewhere. Patty

Everything was fantastic, the food is great! Service was excellent and the ambiance is wonderful! Love going there for a great meal and relaxing time.

A north woods vibe right here in the Twin Cities. Other than the view of an Arden Hills roundabout, you'll feel transported to Bemidji or Mille Lacs. Three options at dinner: sirloin, chopped sirloin, and shrimp. All come with the same sides served family style. Don't be fooled by the "hashed browns" - they're delicious but simply fried mashed potatoes. Steak sauce is seasoned au jus. My husband and I shared one sirloin and still took home close to half of it. Didn't try the mushrooms but had cheesecake for dessert and it was also delish. Recommend Lindey's for a special dinner with friends and family from the rural Midwest - a perfect treat.

Very Noisy. Very dated decor. Service was OK to begin with but our waitresses went awol after getting our check, had to ask another waitress to finish our check out. Steak was OK, it didn't taste or cut like a $40 aged steak. Lots of reviews bang on about how the place and menu haven't changed in 65 years, well it's time for an update. First visit and last visit.

We've been to Lindy's a few times and have never been disappointed! This family owned establishment has been in the same location since 1958. I would recommend reservations for any given day. We went on Monday and had 4:30 reservations. Within a minute of getting there they sat 6 more tables. The menu is very limited with only 4 options to choose from. They provide unlimited potatoes and grilled bread. We had the prime chopped sirloin (about 12oz) and the grilled shrimp (7 large) with drawn butter. Dinners also come with salad, grilled bread, hash brown potatoes and watermelon pickles. We were celebrating my birthday, which you can sign up on their birthday club and get $25 off your dinner entree, so a slice of Muddy Paws cheesecake with strawberries finished our experience. We left very full, satisfied and anticipating our next visit.

The last few times I have been there, the steak is tough, chewy and dry tasting. I gave it the benefit of the doubt and went back and tried again, thinking that maybe it was just an off night, but it wasn't. Way better steak places for the money, that are actually edible and delicious!

Old timey supper club feel that only serve sirloin steaks and some other fixings. Great place for family and service. Went for my bday and would come back.

Why do you go to Lindey's? Because there is no other restaurant like it that I've ever been to in my entire life. It's been open since 1955 and it is just one of those places where you can feel the history in the place itself. It's not just the time capsule feeling of the building exterior and interior but the downright spiritual experience of dining there. It's a place like no other and you have to go at least once while you're on this planet. I've been going since 2016 and have never been let down when it came to food or service. For those who have never been remember that this isn't a normal steak house with a huge menu. Instead, for dinner, you'll just have a handful on choices but you should only get the Lindey's Special Sirloin. It's the best sirloin you'll ever have. Personally, I get mine medium or medium well (depending on if I'm eating with the kids) even though I'd get a filet at another restaurant medium rare. Cook is always spot on. The salad, garlic bread and mashed potatoes are fantastic sides. We always love getting old-school drinks when we come here as well. We got a slice of cheesecake for dessert on this day as it was my birthday. Birthday club is a steal as you essentially get a $25 coupon in the mail. As always, we'll have leftovers that we turn into steak and egg english muffin sandwiches the next morning. Finally, try to come at least once for lunch as they serve the best steak sandwich I've ever had. The service is great -- an old-school kindness that fits the vibe of the place. Lori was our server and she was awesome and really made my birthday a special experience. I'm so happy Lindey's survived the pandemic forced closures unlike some other fine Twin Cities restaurants. They even take reservations now which I definitely recommend. Keep up the great work -- we hope you're open until 2055 so we can help celebrate your 100th anniversary!

Great steak. Simple menu. The Shrimp are excellent too. Order the mushrooms with the steak

Consistently good food. Home cooking feel, personable staff, good meat! We like to celebrate birthdays here (join their birthday club!).

Awesome steak! Simply the best. I love my celebrations there. Service is tops. Easy to get to. They don't mind when our group gets bigger.

It's always a good place to get steak! We go a few times a year for birthdays. The garlic bread is awesome, too.

The service doesn't even need to be mentioned, I could have had the best server in the universe and it wouldn't change my mind about the food. The biggest take away from my review is that the cost of the food does NOT reflect the flavor or quality that they deliver. *Salad- tiny, iceberg lettuce, 1 solo cherry tomato, thousand island "special" dressing. *Bread- brown, breadsticks with garlic butter on top, cut into 2 inch pieces. *Mushrooms- dark brown, salty, ?probably canned. *Potatoes- brown, salty, kinda yummy, no sour cream or anything to add to them. *Wad of sirloin steak- brown, medium rare was rare, no flavor unless dunked into the salty juice. Outside of the salad, everything else is brown. There is no option for green beans, asparagus, Brussels sprouts, etc. If you want to share they add an $8 charge even if the other person doesn't want a salad, even if the other person is a skinny 12 yr old. 2 entrees, an order of mushrooms, and soda-pop drinks for 3 people was $122 before tip. Continue reading at your own risk: I barely made it into my bathroom when we got home... all of that salt messed up my stomach with almost immediate side effects.

Awful food. The meat was disgusting and what the call hash browns were not hash browns. The entire meal was awful. What a big giant waste of money. If I could give it zero stars I would.

Brought my man for his birthday! Everything was PERFECT!! Special thank you to our wonderful server, Jenny!

Lindey's is a unique experience. They menu items are very limited in a good way. There are three kinds of steak and one seafood items. They know what they are good at making so they are not messing with other style of cooking. You get unlimited bread. The potato dish has a nice sourness to it and they are delish.

Oh my...this is steak heaven. I went here a few months ago for the first time. And oh my, how did I not know of this old school supper club style steak joint? The prime cut for two is HUGE. I was impressed how they cooked that big ass sirloin rare on one end for me and medium on the other for my wife. And the special herb juices they cook it in...there's nothing like it. No wonder it's a family secret. When you order the button mushrooms, you get a big bowl, plenty for your steak and to take home with the left overs. The bread basket is fresh and warm. The pickled watermelon is a nice touch, and good, tastes like sweet pickles. One of my benchmarks of an old school supper club is ice cream drinks, and we had a couple. They have Golden Cadillac, Pink Squirrel, Grasshopper, and Banshee. Highly recommended. Note: the menu is limited to a sirloin (2-cuts), a broiled shrimp dinner, a chopped sirloin steak. Sides include: greaseless 'hash browns' which are kind of unlimited mashed red potatoes & garlic bread, a salad, a side of pickled watermelon rind (if they can still source it). A la carte sides: a bowl of sautéed mushrooms (recommended).

I love this place! Best steaks in the Twin Cities. the service is always wonderful, and the atmosphere is "Northern Minnesota" in the heart of the Twin Cities. They need a really nice outdoor patio for summertime dining experience.
