Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Sam Gilman

From the OpenTable editors: Starring white tablecloths, crystal chandeliers, and tall windows with Loring Park views, Cafe Lurcat from the prolific D’Amico restaurant family has been an ultra-glam Minneapolis destination for decades. The throwback menu keeps it classic with shredded apple salads, miso sea bass, wagyu steaks, perfect fries, and crisp cocktails. Eating in the lush front or back patios is the go-to move in warmer months.

    Went on a special night out with my son… the sea bass is his absolute favorite (mine too). Lurcat is so special and always fantastic. Love it! :)

    Absolutely loved our experience! This was our first visit. Why? We have missed many years of opportunity. The ambience was beautiful, food spectacular, drinks and wine selection perfect, and service exceptional. Thank you Cafe Lurcat and special kudos to our waiter who made this evening so wonderful for the 4 of us.

    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.
