    Highly recommend Hazelwood! We went with other couples and we all agreed we probably had the best steaks/food we’ve had in a long time! Loved the cozy, Christmas atmosphere, and all of the staff were very efficient & friendly! Crab cakes and green beans were amazing appetizers!! We are from NW Iowa, but we will definitely come back to Hazelwood at our next visit to Mpls!

    We had an absolutely fantastic holiday (and birthday!) lunch celebration! Everything was spot-on – our food arrived piping hot, the salad was perfectly chilled, and every bite was bursting with flavor. The rotisserie chicken sandwich was amazing, “the” chicken sandwich with candied bacon was a total hit, the chopped salad was fresh and delicious, and the chicken wings were finger-licking good. Service was quick and seamless. We’re already counting down the days until we can return to one of our favorite spots!

    The noise level was terrible. We had to change tables due to the noise level. One if our group had noise sensitivity issues. The staff was accommodating and found us a less noisy table.

    Love this place. Neighborhood gem. Delicious food. Kimchi fried rice bowl is fabulous! Very satiating. Love their bison burger - its magnificent. Grilled shrimp salad is wonderful. You can’t go wrong with anything. Ambience lovely and noise level low. You can’t definitely have a conversation with someone.
