    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!

    My first time here. Went with three office mates and had a delightful afternoon. Drinks and food were delicious, service was prompt despite how busy they were. I had a delicious patty melt, though one of my table mates had mushroom toast that looked incredibly yummy. We ordered their pear blackberry cheesecake to share and it was that perfect level of not too sweet but still a great meal ender. Although the room was filled with holiday parties, you could still hear the conversation at your table
