UMBRA Canopy by Hilton Minneapolis

Our server was great and the food was also delicious. I had the salad with ranch dressing, which was very tasty. My companion and I ordered the Elk Manhattan and the Bone-in Ribeye. The ribeye was delicious, though I have had better at the same price point. The elk was a great novelty to try and paired well with the blueberry, but it was lukewarm and a bit tough to chew. If I were to have it again, I would ask for it to be cooked a little longer. When you're paying $60 for a dish, it should be perfect. The sides were good and the complimentary bread was fresh but a bit bland. Overall, it was worth a try.

Our waiter Joseph was amazing and made the experience worth while. We ordered several items to taste one being the lobster nachos which had no lobster on it, smh however they quickly made it right. I also had the alligator which was okay. I loved thelamb meatball and would go back for it again and the pineapple ginger drink I had was amazing. Love the atmosphere and chillvibe.

We didn't dine at this restaurant as we were attending a wedding, but the place was stunning. The beds and pillows were very comfortable, and the room's design was delightful. Despite it being a Sunday night, it was very quiet. The front desk staff was incredibly helpful and kind. I will definitely return in the future to fully enjoy the beautiful surroundings and possibly try the excellent restaurant attached to the hotel, as the menu sounded delicious.

We almost missed the opportunity to enjoy one of the best meals we have ever had. It is our first trip to the Twin Cities and after a day exploring the Mall of America, we decided on an early dinner downtown. We were greeted by an extremely rude hostessnamed Narissa who looked my husband and I up and down and said, Yes? We said we were wanting to have dinner and she said , Just you two? We said yes and she pointed at a high top table and said, You can sit there. We were cold from walking arounda bit downtown, so the only thing that kept us from leaving as a result of her rudeness was not wanting to brave the cold, wetweather again so soon. So that 's the bad. Let 's talk about the good! Allison (Allie) was our server and she was amazing:gracious, friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive. The food was spectacular. Paul had the spicy mussels which were the best we 'veever had. He also had the meatball appetizer and this might have been the best marinara and the best meatball of our lives.Those who know how much I love to cook Italian food, know that 's saying something. I had the filet and it was perfectlyprepared. I ate every bite of my root vegetables as well. Fresh made, warm bread. And the drinks!!! Try the Livin ' on a Pear andthe Cherry on a Sppin. You won 't be disappointed if you can get beyond the rude hostess! 10 stars!

The ambiance and decor of this restaurant are stunning. We were pleasantly surprised by the live music playing, which added to the calming atmosphere without being too loud. The drinks were excellent; I highly recommend trying the "Livin' In a Pear" cocktail - it's delicious. The mussels were fantastic, and the portion was so generous it could easily feed three people. The sirloin steak with truffle was cooked perfectly and tasted amazing. I can't wait to come back with my girlfriends next time!
