The Best Restaurants in Northeast Minneapolis

"With a menu inspired by chef Jeff Watson’s Korean roots, Minari serves dim sum, noodles, and charcoal barbecued meats in a chic, date night-worthy space. Be sure to order the dan dan mafaldini with oyster mushrooms and the gochujang-marinated pork jowl, plus the banchan. Don’t overlook the cocktail list, which nods to East Asian flavors with drinks like an Old Fashioned flavored with black sticky rice and umami bitters. Reservations are available through Resy." - Stacy Brooks

The Best New Restaurants in Minneapolis and St. Paul Right Now, March 2025

"This hotly anticipated newcomer to Minneapolis from South Korean-born, South Dakota-raised chef Jeff Watson explores East Asian cuisine, with particular attention to Korean dishes. The restaurant features a raw menu chock full of seafood like hamachi tartare with squid ink vinaigrette and oysters on the half shell with three distinctive sauces. For something heartier, look to the noodles and barbecue delights like miso-marinated flank steak and gochujang pork jowl. There’s even a late-night dim sum menu." - Serena Maria Daniels

The Best New Bars in the Twin Cities

"Chef Jeff Watson’s Korean roots and East Asian communal dining meld at Minari in Minneapolis’s Sheridan neighborhood. These flavors carry over into the drink menu full of cocktails (for both brunch and dinner), mocktails, and a section devoted to highballs. “Highball #2” features umami-forward mushroom soju, mildly sweet and nutty Hwangcha yellow tea, and a bit of carbonic fizz. The Mekarushi cocktail blends fruity, peppery Japanese Cor Cor Okinawan rum with black and the usual green lime with a bit of salty-sweet funk from fermented shio koji. Reservations are available through Resy." - Natalia Mendez

Minari, a New Korean Restaurant, Is Coming to Northeast Minneapolis - Eater Twin Cities

"A new Korean restaurant serving dumplings, weekend dim sum, and Korean fare is set to open in Northeast Minneapolis’s former Erté & the Peacock Lounge this summer, the Star Tribune reports. Minari is the work of chef Jeff Watson, executive chef and culinary director for Dani del Prado’s restaurants and an alum of Isaac Becker’s Bar La Grassa and Burch Steak. Expect big bowls of noodles, barbecued meats, and banchan, plus a bar program from beverage director Megan Luedtke that’ll likely highlight sochu and makgeolli (an effervescent Korean rice wine). Minari is the latest addition to Northeast’s budding restaurant hotspot: At 323 13th Avenue NE, it’s just down the street from Young Joni, Anchor Fish & Chips, La Boulangerie Marguerite, Oro by Nixta, and incoming restaurants Vinai and Diane’s Place." - Justine Jones

The atmosphere and concept of Minari is 10/10. I love dim sum and the dark academia vibes are incredible. Our group ordered off of the menu and tried most dim sum items. Nothing was mind blowing, but it was all solidly good. Favorites were the squid ink dumplings and the scallops. To fully experience the courses and concepts, the bill added up very quickly. It’s worth trying this cool new restaurant, but probably won’t be a recurrence for us.

Perfect place for a date night or just a good night out. I don’t even know where to begin. They were a bit busy but still good service. The food… amazing to say the least. The steak and duck breast were out of this world. The sashimi nice, thick and juicy 😋 the pasta WAS a bit spicy, but very flavorful. Beware if you can’t handle spice. They did mention when we were there they were changing the spice levels on it. Will definitely come back.

A great place for brunch with the family on weekends or a date with your special someone at night. Dim sum is nice and different (in a good way) than your traditional dim sum so if you’re adventurous, go for it! Service is fast and attentive and has a classy atmosphere without being pretentious. Definitely coming back!

Sat at the bar with a friend, it was lovely. The atmosphere is very inviting, a cozy level of lighting. The bartenders were very attentive and helped us decide on the Pearl Meatballs- delicious! We came in for a nightcap and the Highball #1 with the sesame washed whiskey made it into my dream overnight. I cannot wait to try everything on the dinner menu! A very well done restaurant with a cohesive and inviting atmosphere, and a wonderful experience. An absolutely delightful new spot in NE!

Owen was fantastic. He made my special night feel all the more special. He told us everything was incredible on the menu and he did not disappoint. He even made an off the menu drink (the aviator), as well as many others, with impressive skill. Definitely a wonderful place to celebrate a special occasion. Will definitely be going back! My biggest concern is whether I will be repeating the items I ordered (all phenomenal) or branching out to try equally awesome items next time 😱🤤

We had a very good experience at this restaurant. The food from the menu and the dim sum were both innovative, interesting and delicious! We especially liked our waiter, Brett, who was attentive, funny and knowledgeable about the food. He was so personable that we were all joking around together towards the end of our meal, and he even waved goodbye to us through the window. 👋

We recently dined here to celebrate my birthday. The restaurant boasts a charming atmosphere; however, our table for four was uncomfortably small. On multiple occasions, I had to hold my plate on my lap due to the lack of space, which detracted from the dining experience. While the service, drinks, and desserts were commendable, the main courses were disappointing—some dishes lacked flavor, and others, like the cream cheese frittelle, were overly salty and inedible. Overall, despite the pleasant ambiance and attentive service, the cramped seating and inconsistent food quality left much to be desired.

Great vibe and tasty food! Restaurant was packed on a Sunday night at 8pm. They were walking around with dim sum + all of the listed menu options. Enjoyed our dinner selections, the pasta was very spicy (and I enjoy spice) but had good flavor. The chocolate caramel tart was the best dessert I’ve had out in some time.
