    We've dined at Lurcat several times, and it never fails to impress. Last night we stopped off after a visit to the Minneapolis Institute of Art and chose to keep things simple, ordering off the bar menu. The mini-burgers and fries (with a side dish of Bearnaise for dipping) were perfect, and the warm cinnamon sugar mini donuts for dessert were just what we needed on a cold January night. As always, service was excellent.

    Great steak house. I had a filet mignon which was cooked the way it was meant to be: Pittsburgh. What a delight! Absolutely lovely. The portion size for the steak was great. I cannot say the same about the fried onions but you are in America so it’s not unexpected (I ate maybe 20% of what was in the dish and I am a big guy who loves onions). It’s rare I say this but the onions were a little too salty for me. I had a key lime pie which was good. It should probably say Key Lime Cheese Cake to be fair. The portion was excessive. Roughly 1/4 of a full size cake! Eating it would definitely exceed 2000 calories on its own. I had a fantastic time. The staff was uber nice. If you crave a steak it’s a reference.

    An outstanding first experience. I splurged on 5 ounces of A5 Wagyu beef filet and it was simply the best beef I have ever tasted. Our server, “Golf”, was very friendly and attentive. We will definitely be back.

    Lovely setting, attentive service, delicious meal and exciting cocktails. We loved every aspect of our date night dinner. Beef tartare, scallops and duck were all outstanding and beautiful. Passionfruit tart also very nice. Don’t miss the passionfruit cocktail with bubbles, sidecar or espresso martini. Exceptionally good.
