New American Restaurants near South Saint Paul, MN

“About a month ago I was here with my dad and I had fried rice (I think chicken). It was delicious!!! I noticed more people were taking food to-go than actually dining-in. The portion was a good portion and the price was decent. My dads been coming here for a while and I can see why. I would totally recommending to give this place a shot. :)“

“My wife and I went there for our anniversary. It was our first time trying Baldamar. We got seated in Nate aka "Nate-Or" section! Man what a guy! Our experience was amazing! His energetic lifestyle brought so much to our dining experience. All the staff was truly remarkable. We had the prime ribeye, filet, bread of life, lobster mac and cheese, thr mushrooms and asparagus/crab were do die for! Definitely one of the best steaks I've had in MN!“

“What a cute spot! They have amazing bloody Mary's! This place is great if you want to stop in for a quick drink and a small treat or stay for a full meal! I went here a few years ago and found myself there this past weekend again. It was as good as I remembered and the staff were so kind! Everyone at brunch raved about their meal, truly exceptional! Their eggs were all cooked to perfection! Highly recommend if you are in the area. If you are ever in the area highly recommend checking this place out!“

“Terrific find in St Paul in the Art Deco St Paul Air Terminal Holman's Table. Lot's of photos of early aviation, a private plane landed and taxi'd up for a lunch meeting. Meals were excellent, the room is a delight over looking Holman Field.“

“Truly a dining experience like no other. The food is delicious - I eat the steak every single time I go because it is my favorite food in the world. I'm pretty sure everything on their menu is made from scratch and every flavor is perfect. They take such care and pay such huge attention to the details. The wine pairings are out of this world, and it's such a luxury to turn off my brain and just know that every sip will be perfect. And the service is the warmest, most competent and most genuine service I have ever experienced. You will feel cared for without feeling smothered, and they will go above and beyond to make sure you are enjoying every moment.“

“We went for dinner with friends and loved the view, atmosphere, and had great service. The drinks for most of us were also excellent. However we all felt that the food and presentation was a three star. So take that into account if you are reading this.I know they are going for the diner/dinette vibe but the shrimp cakes in a cardboard box isn't ideal. The French fries also were good but look like something you would get next door at CHS Field.I had the duck pasta with ricotta cheese and it was a major letdown for me. I should have ordered the burrito. However the menu isn't that large so your options are limited. The pork belly was tasty but had way too much spicy sauce all over it.Will I go back? Honestly it is unlikely. I hope they can improve the food and expand the menu because the location is beautiful and historic. And our server was prompt and took great care of us.“

“FAST - seated within a minute. Order taken by Kelly within 3 minutes. Food arrived within 10 minutes. Hot. Plentiful. Place was clean. All equipment appeared professional and in good order. Everyone worked as a team. I highly recommend this family run restaurant!“

“You guys went over and above any expectations I had. We will definitely be back again and will be recommending LT around! The food was great and you more than made up for the mistakes made. Plus I think my husband is addicted to the bulgogi now.“

“I love Turf Club. This is a classic music venue with great service. I have been there a few times now and have never had a bad experience. The stage is elevated a bit so even if you're in the back, you can see the performance. This place isn't huge, so you get a very intimate setting. Great options at the bar for drinks and they have food, even though I haven't tried anything yet. Looks good though! I could not believe the service we got the last time we were there. We had a table and our server was so on top of everything. Never had to wait long for a drink refill. He was so nice and funny. Really added to the whole experience! I always keep an eye out for events at Turf Club because I'll take any excuse to visit here!“

“Absolutely loved this place! Came here yesterday; and it has a really cool vibe. The bar is in the back of a restaurant and the overall vibe is very chill and upscale. Their alcohol list is insane! There’s over 100s of options and choices to choose from. I ordered a whiskey sour with parm fries and my experience was absolutely amazing. I would absolutely return! Also, the bartender working was absolutely amazing!! The drinks he made were delicious.“

“Cheerful and professional service from Sydney. Great artichoke dip and nice smooth lattes. The hibiscus orange tart has great flavor, but a little odd in texture for me. A wonderful option within walking distance of the XCel and Science Museum.“

“Good burgers, good appetizers. A very solid experience. I would recommend sitting at the bar, the bartenders are always awesome and give great service. The burgers have a good variety that you can't find other places so it's fun to try different things too. The atmosphere is relaxed without being divey. Would recommend.“

“No other wing place will EVER compare to getting wings from here. I've been eating here since I graduated high-school back in 2018 and I can't say I've found any other place that can compare. I've been loyal to this place since then and I plan to remain loyal to this place for as long as they're around.“

“This place is amazing! Do you know how hard it is to find a place that not only has an extensive tap list with great beer representing all the major styles, but also really good food? This place has both is and is truly a gem. It is must visit for both great beer and great food, plus the service was amazing. My beer never went dry once before the waitress was asking if we needed another. That is how it should be done! Spent over 5 hours here and it was time well spent. The Reaper wings were a perfect blend of flavor, spice, and sweetness. If you enjoy various styles of beer and great food this place is highly recommended!“

“Staff seemed short staffed HOWEVER our service did an amazing job. While not able to chit chat she was fast and helpful with our order. The food was good we got the fish and chips. Would love to try more of the food. A cute little tavern with a good vibe. Place to go if you are looking for American food and a good time“

“I'm a staunch supporter of restaurants blazing the trail for tipless pricing as it tends to be more equitable for staff and simpler and more transparent for all. Brasa is tipless, saying it pays its workers $16-25/hr, and it does everything right: delicious rotisserie chicken (pollo a la brasa), tasty sides (the spicy creamed spinach wasn't actually spicy hot, but it was tangy and creamy), fast service, and reasonable prices---remember, no tipping expected. The two-piece rotisserie plate is $15 as of this writing and is enough to satisfy most appetites. An excellent deal for food this delicious and well-prepared. The décor and vibe is very nice too.“

“Delicious, hot , fresh, gourmet feel. Wonderful, staff that made me feel welcome as this was y first visit.Only complaint..they may have forgot to turn on the hood fans when cooking and an overwhelming smell of something burning overtook the restaurant. It only lasted a few minutes, but enough to give me a headache. I arrived when right when they opened so it might had been an oversight.“

“I love this place. They have such a delicious variety of breakfast and lunch options and they're quick and efficient in prepping orders. And they keep adding new stuff!! I've tried many things on the menu and have never been disappointed. If I had to pick a favorite, it'd be the Meat Lovers omelet. No, the West 7th Street burger. No... the omelet. AH! I can't choose just one!“

Tried the brisket in past was very good.UPDATEso it's been a while since this last visit tonight was rough, slow service, food was off... definitely would go someplace else for food.Bar was fine...Update- went and had tacos on Tuesday- they were delish! Server was attentive and friendly!“

“First time here! Complimentary thanks to the chef for cooking up the best dinner for us! Thanks to our server who was patience with us, she explain everything perfectly to us.We order Calamari and Spicy Mussel. I was expecting to receive a very small portion like other places. BUT the portion was big enough to share it. 10/10We also order the halibut with rissotto & bouillabaisse. I'm not a fan of super fishy broth, but this broth was perfect! Each spoon of broth that went in my mouth made me want some more. Halibut and rissotto was cooked perfectly, no complaint over here!Definitely recommend & will definitely return! Thanks for having us!“

“First time playing Prestwick yesterday! What an amazing golf course. The layout is outstanding and condition of the course was immaculate. Greens were quick and rolled true. By far the best kept course in the Twin Cities metro. The landscaping and gardens on the course were simply beautiful. Lunch at the turn was equally fantastic. We had four groups and we will be back! Great job Prestwick!??‍♂️“

“Out for a birthday celebration and had dinner here. Our food was good as was the service. I am all about places that don't have loud blaring music so you can actually have a conversation with our yelling and this location was great. We had the jambalaya and salmon and both dishes were good.“

“Conveniently located off the frontage road of Hiway 61, it does resemble a big red barn. There is a banquet hall/area with entry in the back of the parking lot. Tuesdays offer tacos (good tacos-self serve taco bar) & Johnny NO Cash Country band, on Wednesday its bingo.The kitchen offers pub grub as well as Heggies Pizzas. I was looking forward to an order of chicken wings, but the kitchen ran out of wings. Next time we come here to line dance, will try to get the wings again!“

“It's good, except they always try to avoid actually giving you the advertised good discounts. I'm not sure why. But you need to check the bill, and ask for the discount. Then they always put up a fight. Otherwise, the food is great.“

“My sister and I came here before the Olivia Rodrigo show at Xcel, and we had a great experience. Our server, Alexa, was incredibly nice and gave us great mocktail recommendations. When the bar was out of an ingredient for the one we ordered, the bartender, John, went out of his way to create a new recipe for us. It ended up being one of the best mocktails we've ever had. The food was great, too— definitely try the bread pudding if you get the chance. Thank you again, Alexa and John, for making our night awesome!“

“Steak, garlic mashed potatoes asparagus with a blackberry sauce. Was wonderful and will order it again. Then I had their saffron cheesecake that was divine and drizzled in caramel and chocolate. Think I'll order this again tomorrow night.“

“INCREDIBLE Setting (in 1923 Union Depot, architectural marvel), INSANE Happy Hour Specials ($4 wine & beer, $6 Station Burger w/ option to swap in vegan Impossible burger, M-F 3-6 & ALL DAY Sat-Sun), TONS OF FUN (Jazz night every 1st Thursday, Trivia 2nd & 4th Wednesdays, ping pong table, giant chess check out, etc.). BEST bartender and waitress, Yani, is so sweet!Vegetarian options: Impossible burgers, white bean sandwich, Brussel sprouts, etc.“

“Comfortable pub atmosphere with friendly, attentive staff. Food was very good in generous servings. Ample free parking with easy access off I-694 in Oakdale.Daily lunch special of 3 beef enchaladas with rice, black beans and lettuce for $9.00 was great! I got change back from my $10 bill. Incredible!“
