The News Room

The food. The food was fabulous. I mean, really delicious. Especially for that price point. We had wonderful shrimp as an appetizer and our entrees were also delightful. The drinks were so delicious and gorgeous too. The service was very prompt and helpful, incredibly attentive and kind without hovering. Great at spotting little ques without us having to track anyone down, wave a bunch, or wait forever. The atmosphere was everything I hoped it would be. The newsprint menus, the handing newspapers and walls of real headliners over the decades that were themed for the area you were in. The cute outside settings as an option if you wanted a little less of an on the nose News Room themed experience. Definitely would like to go again when I'm in Minneapolis.

Great service, and delicious food. Overall, the Staff is nice, servers go above and beyond. i had a beef lasagna and my partner had a chicken Alfredo and a berries salad, all super tasty and well cooked. Bathrooms are clean, as well as the other areas of the premises. I want to go back there for sure.

I visited Minneapolis for a quick work trip. After a long day of meetings I was looking for a local restaurant to grab dinner at and found this hidden gem. Brooks the bartender recommended the Short Ribs, and I can honestly say they were the best I’ve ever had! Brooks really made a lasting impression of the city of Minneapolis and the great people who live there! I hope that work brings me back up so I can try more items on the menu! Excellent experience!

Food was great! Portions were large. Easy walk from the Fairfield Marriott and then to Target center for a concert. I’d definitely eat here again. The Rueben and Brie cheese curds were delicious!

Last night into town and this place just ruined it. How could you bring out a dish with a burnt steak to serve! The cold mash potatoes and hard pita chips definitely were overcooked. Still ended up paying for the burnt meal, I recommend hiring new chefs and line cooks.

I have been to one of the sister locations outside Chicago (the saddle room) and the food and drinks are great there. The Newsroom is maybe trying a bit too hard to find itself with its menu. We had the turkey burger and the black and blue sandwich. I don't know what flavor they were going for with either.. we also added the Brussels sprouts which was more of a hot shave sprout salad and was unexpected but not in the best way. The service, ambiance and drinks were good. I did get the peanut butter and jelly old fashioned minus the peanut butter bourbon (subbed a basil Hayden) and it was quite good.

The food was alright. Tasted good but not super special overall. Great service, nothing against them or the venue. I really enjoyed the burrata board. Good combination of flavors. The Caesar salad however was the least flavorful Caesar I have ever had. It almost tasted like plain lettuce to me, with how bland the dressing was. Chicken parm, the chicken was really good, the sauce and pasta was fine. The jambalaya pasta was alright according to my boyfriend.

I had a reasonably nice meal at The Newsroom with the number of co-workers while in minneapolis. The food in the appetizers were good and everyone generally enjoyed their meals but it was not anything overtly spectacular. The cocktails were well mixed and not overly strong and the service was good considering we were at an awkward shaped table with one server. The meal was novel and good.
