Hell's Kitchen was a fantastic place to be! The mood is so special and peculiar - adore the underground mood and the artistic decoration with the clouds on the ceiling. We have also tried the Pan Fried Walleye which was just delicious, well seasoned and quite fresh. It is a place to visit in Minneapolis when you are in need of quality food with a personality of being cool and edgy read more

We had so much fun at Hell's Kitchen! The food was amazing and the service was excellent! We made our reservation online and were so glad we did because this place is popular! A friend recommended this location because it's easy to walk to from the downtown hotels! read more

Hells Kitchen is a place that has been prepared for us in the depths below Minneapolis street-level. It is here we become irretrievably lost in the enjoyment of fantastic breakfast and American bar fare with our dates or our families. And though the iconic theming may evoke the Inferno, the temperature is not as hot as you may (or may not) believe. Bottom line: this really is a cool spot with great theming. Menu is standard American burgers and brunch, but everything well prepared and with distinct flare. I mean, you're downtown and figuring out what to eat - a tough decision. With Hell's, you have a "safe bet" as it's familiar food with the aforementioned flare and fun theming. A hardcore foodie may consider other options: Manny's Steakhouse , Fhima's, Sushi Train, Lotus, Britts Pub, the Local; or drive a little further to the North Loop area (lots of good spot$) or stroll through Loring Park to Gai Noi Highlights -Mahnomin porridge (just try it) -huevos rancheros (add bison birria as a protein) -Crybaby Craig's hot sauce ; a great local condiment, and for a bottle with the above or any menu item -lemon ricotta pancakes -Tripple C burger -Parmesan fries Other tip: book ahead, or be willing to wait a little bit / just sit at the bar p.s. Look at the number of yelp reviews compared to other restaurants in the area. Wow. This place really has drawn in a lot of souls. p.p.s. I should mention the service here: good helpful staff over many visits read more

This place is NOT a Gordon Ramsay restaurant chain! (We thought it was but they're quick to note that it is not). Very spacious location, lots of different seating areas. Service was fairly quick, not too busy when we went in. There's a Photo Booth inside offering B&W and Colored film strips, highly recommend! Beers on Tap were good. Burger and Fries were delicious as well! We got the Parmesan Fries and their "House Season" fries, both equally delicious. Lots of dipping sauces (ask for their house sauce)! Large menu but good options. Definitely recommend this spot if you're in the area! read more

The breakfast at Hell's Kitchen is far from the devil as it tasted heaven sent. Everyone at the table loved the food and we might have all eaten a little past comfort because it was that good and worth popping that top button on your jeans. The overall decor and vibe was really cool from the entry all the way to the stage near the bar. If I lived in the area I would be checking out the venue schedule as it seems like it would be a rad spot for a show. I was impressed with the service, the bar tender took our drink order and when he got caught up with drink orders another person swung by to take our order. He didn't write anything down but remembered all our substitutions as we each made slight adjustments to the items we ordered. I was impressed that he was able to remember everything and our food came out just as we had requested. I ordered the huevos rancheros and it was the perfect balance of sweet and spicy with the salsa and a great crunch from the tortilla and hash browns. I couldn't help but add guacamole and bison sausage which was delicious and helped me not miss holding the cheese. If you are in Minneapolis it's worth the a trip to the underworld to grab a meal at Hell's Kitchen. read more

I took my daughter here for breakfast for her birthday. I ordered the lemon pancakes based on a friend's recommendation review and because I love lemon but I thought they were just Okay. We are foodies and I wasn't overwhelmed by the food. The coffee was delicious! Service was phenomenal. Ambiance of Hell's Kitchen for an experience and destination was fun either way. We used the Photo Booth and made the birthday breakfast fun. read more

First off the restaurant is in the basement of a building. Wasn't expecting that but I guess it makes sense? It was also a lot larger than I expected although one side was closed for a wedding while we were there. We were here for brunch and service was great. The staff were super personable and kept checking in. Food wise I ordered the bison Benedict and my brother got the walleye fish and chips. I was sadly disappointed by the Benedict because the egg yolk didn't run which for me is pretty essential for a poached egg on a Benedict. Also the hollandaise was supposedly a tangerine jalapeño hollandaise but I feel like I didn't really get much of those flavors and I was looking forward to the hit of heat. However the hash browns it came with were perfectly cooked. Super crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. My brother really liked the fried walleye and we both thought the "chips" or fries were really good. I could've eaten basketfuls of those fries. If only the poached egg had run, I would've given them another star read more

It had been a hot minute since I had been to Hell's Kitchen. Decided to stop in for some appetizers after an afternoon walking around DT. The space was all decorated for the holiday, which was really fun. Got the famous sausage bread and some cheese curds. This is one of few places I break my "no pork" eating for that brrad. If you don't have any meat restrictions in your diet, this stuff is legendary for a reason. I do not know what voodoo magic the cooks do in the kitchen to make this stuff taste so good. It also comes with an orange marmalade, a currant (I think that's what the server said) jelly, and the restaurant's also famous peanut butter. All three toppings are DELICIOUS. You can also get the peanut butter to take home, which I would also recommend. The cheese curds were also lightly crisp and the sauce that was served with those was also delicious. Would highly recommend coming during holiday season for the decor and check out the bloody/mimosa bar. read more

Came here to try the holiday cocktail bar. The cocktails were fine but nothing special, the food was not that great and overall everything was expensive for the quality. Our waiter was great. He was very nice & could speak to the menu extensively. However, I will not be going back for dinner or cocktails. Maybe I will try the brunch one day. I have heard good things about that read more

Went there for breakfast and was very underwhelmed. The sausage patty was very greasy and had a weird taste, couldn't eat it. The eggs were just ok. The service was meh. We were a table of 5 and it wasn't busy. Definitely will not be back. read more

I passed up Hell's Kitchen while looking thru my Yelp and googlemaps feed the day before. I thought to myself; this is probably just a place for tourists. It was close to our hotel and we were really tired. Boy, I was dead wrong. Hell's Kitchen is an excellent pick if you're looking for really good food and service. We were greeted by a really nice guy who sat us right away (It became reservations first and people waiting for tables as the evening progressed). Our server Adam couldn't have been better. He was really down to earth, not pushing drinks or food and gave perfect recommendation's based on what we had a taste for. He was an excellent server and checked on us many times. I liked that he didn't rush our meal. He perfectly timed appetizer and entrees. There was also another guy coming around several times to refill water and beverages. Service was a 10! The food items were all served hot, fresh and handsomely portioned. The artichoke dip had its own twist with warm corn chips. The walleye on the fish & chip dinner came piping hot on a mound of fries. Not a bit greasy, Snow White, freshly beer battered and huge pieces! Homemade tartar sauce rounded it out nicely. We also ordered the beef barbacoa short rib entree on Adam's suggestion. The entree had 3 large pieces of beef in a beautiful sauce atop potatoes. It was packed full of flavors and a little on the spicy side. It was delicious and just melted in your mouth. Everyone's plates around us looked really good too. We had so much food we didn't have room for desert. It was a fun evening there and the guy host that seated us earlier helped me as I bought a T-Shirt on the way out. This is a great place to come for really good food, drinks and down to earth relaxed service. We want to return and try their burgers next. "Dante's Double Smashed" and other concoctions looked bomb!! Thanks Hell's Kitchen for one hell of a meal!!! read more

I stopped by here late at night and they did not bat an eye...they were happy to provide me with recommendations and suggestions and served me at the bar pretty quickly. I loved trying something by I had never had before and I loved that they had a store so I could buy some of their famous items like the hot cocoa and peanut butter - mmmm!!! Oh and they have a photo booth that is available to add to your festivities and that was a fun little treat! I would definitely go back but would likely go for brunch to check that out!!! read more

I'm in town for a conference and Hell's Kitchen came up in conversation I was having with some other attendees. They raved about the brunch they had enjoyed that morning... and given that it was within easy walking distance of the hotel, I decided to check it out myself for dinner. I made a reservation (they highly recommended it), but found that it wasn't that busy when I actually arrived (which might have just been due to the fact that it was 7:30-ish on a Sunday night). The host who showed me to a booth did mention they highly recommend reservations though because it can get quite busy. In terms of food, they have a decent menu. I opted to start with the "Bloody Mary Ceviche" described as "Light and refreshing, yet bold and flavorful. Chopped shrimp with a mix of tomatoes, avocado, onions, scallions, jalapenos, and cilantro tossed in a bloody mary reduction. Served with house-made corn tortilla chips." Unfortunately, I didn't find the ceviche very bold or flavorful. If anything, it was mostly chopped shrimp, avocado, and the chips... with minimal bloody mary reduction. I love a good ceviche, so this was a disappointment. For my actual dinner, I ordered the Quesabirria Tacos, described as "Two grilled corn tortillas filled with a robustly flavored braised bison birria, and shredded cheese. Served with a spicy consommé with onion & cilantro for dipping, side of house-made chips and queso & your choice of house-made salsa." The tacos were very filling (though the meat was a bit fatty for my taste). The spicy consommé was the most delicious part of this particular dish. My server for the night was pleasant enough... though gave off a bit of a "can't be bothered"-vibe. The ambiance of the restaurant is fitting. I loved the various art pieces throughout, and the decor of the place was on theme. There was no live music the night I went, unfortunately, but the stage is eye-catching and provides a very cool vibe for the place. TL;DR Dinner here was fine - maybe brunch is better? It wasn't an especially memorable experience though for anything besides the decor, so I haven't opted to return throughout the rest of my stay in Minneapolis. read more

I was excited to check this place out and am glad I was able to come by. This place is so cool! There's so much neat stuff to look at. I was seated super quick. Chris, my server, was super friendly and knowledgeable. I got the Ham and Pear Crisp which was quite tasty. It definitely made me feel super cozy. I felt like having raw pear instead might add a nice crunch. Would love to come back sometime! read more

Stopped by for lunch and was able to grab the last two seats at the bar. Service was attentive, especially given the crowd with the conference. Decided on the Huevos Rancheros with bacon (+$5), which was listed on the "Where to Eat Hotlist". There was a tortilla on the bottom that was extra crispy and topped with hash browns, black beans (not spicy as indicated), scrambled eggs, cheese, sour cream, and a pineapple-peppadew salsa. The dish came out with a large steak knife, which was more for show as it definitely wasn't needed. Overall the dish was okay. I wish the hashbrowns were more cricrispy and the dish had more spice. I guess I should have added jalapenos like the waitress asked! Maybe I chose the wrong item, but I was definitely expecting more from Hell's Kitchen. read more

This place was surprisingly good! We came in on a Friday around 1:30 PM and found it nearly empty. The restaurant is huge, and with only about three tables filled, we were a bit hesitant. But hunger won out, and we're glad we gave it a shot. Our waitress, Kahlila, was the highlight of our experience--friendly and attentive! We tried the Chili which was just okay, but the tomato soup and Peanut Butter Bacon Burger stole the show. It's not a gourmet burger, but the combination of bacon and peanut butter was incredible. A unique flavor worth trying! read more

I was in town at an educational event and a friend recommended we meet here for dinner. Well it was so close to my hotel that and the menu looked amazing so I went for breakfast after landing. I am sad I only had time to eat here twice. Breakfast I sat alone at the bar and there was live music - so great. The bartender Ness gave me great recommendations and I've never had a better breakfast in my life. Huevos Rancheros, Virgin Bloody Mary, and a side Lemon Ricotta pancake (thanks Ness, I DEF needed to try it) Dinner time I was still full from breakfast (even though I couldn't eat it all - portions were great) so our server Adam helped me decide which dessert I would have. The caramel pecan roll was out of this world! The atmosphere was top notch, love that it's employee owned and just had such a great, uplifting and cool vibe. I told my daughter this morning that if I ever came across a dirt cheap flight to Minneapolis- I'd go JUST to eat here again. Flawless.... Thank you Ness and Adam!!! read more

I've been coming here for years and stopped by for lunch on Friday. The place was quiet, but not dead at noon. All decorated for Christmas it has the same great food, same mildly disinterested service, but at a steeper price. It's a good pick for someone who's never been. read more

All right I went here for brunch. They are several or private rooms that have different themes that would be great for private parties. The eggs benedicted when I'm so delicious and the crispy hash browns were to my liking. I wasn't a big fan of the pit ham that was smoked because I like a little more fat on my ham. I would definitely come here to eat again. I like the vibe and the service was great. read more

After a long day working at a conference, the team planned to come here for dinner. What a solid choice! The name itself gave us a preview of what to expect. Despite the name of Hell's Kitchen, the vibe felt more inviting. As ironic as it may seem, It made me want to know more about this place. Walking downstairs felt more like an attraction at an amusement park like The Haunted Mansion at Disneyworld. I really liked the atmosphere! The menu offered vegan, vegetarian, hamburger options. I ordered the Fresh Spring Roll Salad with shrimp. It came with baby kale, carrots, cilantro and house made spicy Thai peanut dressing. The dressing tasted a bit too spicy for me. The shrimp, however, tasted juicy and delicious. My coworkers ordered mostly salads and hamburgers. As for drinks most ordered alcoholic beverages. I ordered the nonalcoholic mocktail Ginger Peach Fuzzy. It tasted fabulous. It took some time for our food to come out. But well worth the wait. During the course of dinner, we enjoyed our company and laughter. I really liked coming here. Come to Hell's Kitchen. Bring friends, family, coworkers or a date. read more

We had such a fun dinner here on a recent business trip. This is not the same Hell's Kitchen as the one you may have heard of and there is a really neat history to this one. If you visit Minneapolis, be sure to check this out. The atmosphere is chill and quirky and the decor is pretty fabulous. Our server gave us a token for the photo booth so that was a fun end to the dinner. I'm pretty sure my dinner choice was the best in the group and I got the Birria tacos. We also had the cheese curds appetizer, which was delicious. This is a good middle of the road casual place with a wide menu selection. I highly recommend checking it out. read more

If I could give more than five stars, I would--because Brandon at Hell's Kitchen deserves it all! Our night started off a bit rocky, but Brandon completely turned things around and made it one of the most memorable dining experiences we've had in Minneapolis. From the moment he stepped in, he brought genuine warmth, incredible knowledge of the menu, and honest, thoughtful recommendations that hit the mark every single time. You could tell he wasn't just "doing his job"--he cared. He listened to what we were in the mood for, steered us away from a few things that might not have wowed us, and led us toward dishes that were out-of-this-world delicious. Thanks to Brandon, we felt like VIPs all night. Hell's Kitchen is lucky to have someone like him on their team, and we will absolutely be coming back--specifically to sit in Brandon's section again. If you visit (and you should), do yourself a favor and ask for Brandon. He's a game-changer. read more

5/5! I've been to the Hells Kitchen in MPLS numerous times now. The service is great, the food is next level, and ambiance is like none other. Their Homemade Peanut Butter is an absolute must.

Other than a little lag in the service a couple of times, I have NO complaints about my meal here! And I can't really even complain too much about the service, because they were pretty busy (definitely recommend making a reservation). I had seen this place mentioned, and knew I wanted to give it a shot while visiting downtown Minneapolis, but then an Uber driver recommended it and mentioned that all the food is good, but breakfast and brunch is the best. So I made my reservation for the next morning. At first I was thinking maybe the reservation wasn't necessary because it didn't seem too busy (0915 on a Saturday morning right before Christmas) , but within the next 30 minutes the place was packed. If a Bloody Mary is your thing, you gotta do the build your own bar. 35 feet of all the Bloody Mary fixings you can imagine! I wasn't in a Bloody Mary mood, so I didn't go for it .. but some of the giant monstrosities I saw people walking back looked big enough to be a Bloody Mary AND a full meal too! I went with a couple of coffee drinks- the Yule log holiday special ( Ginger-cinnamon infused vodka, irish cream, spiced honey, whipped cream & nutmeg, hot coffee) and the Darwin's coffee (Cinnamon infused Gray Duck vodka, Kahlua, Tia Maria, Frangelico, Irish cream, coffee). They were both delicious, and perfect for a cold day in Minnesota. For food, we had to try the infamous sausage bread (dense house-baked bread with sausage, toasted walnuts , black currants and spices). We got it with the dip trio (homemade peanut butter, some kind of berry jam, orange marmalade) It was good, but not my favorite. The peanut butter was amazing though. We also got the deviled eggs, because you can't go to Hell's Kitchen and not even try the devil's own culinary masterpiece. I'm hit or miss on deviled eggs usually. These were a total hit for me. My husband couldn't decide, so he ordered the breakfast burrito AND a grilled cheese with tater tots. I got the ham and pear crisp sandwich with hashbrowns rosti style. It was allllllll soooo good! While we were eating there was also some nice live music in the background, and the entire restaurant was decked out for the holidays (helladazzle'd) This place could have easily been just an overrated tourist trap, all hella dazzle and no actual substance - and honestly that's kind of what I expected. But the food and drinks were all delicious. I was pleasantly surprised. read more

Hell's Kitchen has a very unique vibe. We entered from the street and went down these stairs into the host area, then were seated in an open restaurant. The decorations and ascetics felt like a classic diner from maybe a Tarantino movie. It may be weird to say, but the bathrooms had these cool photos that changed into zombies when you would shift point of views. I'm not sure if that was for Halloween or not, but I absolutely loved it. Our waters were filled quickly and we didn't have to wait long to order. In fact, when we ordered soup, the waitress went in, grabbed it and came out almost immediately. Food: - Cheese Curds: These were fairly standard. I would say if anything, they were a smidge undercooked. I prefer a crispier outside, but that might just be me. The sweet dipping sauce was a little like sweet and sour sauce, not terrible either. - Curry Soup: This had a peppery kick that I absolutely loved. I would definitely get this again. Sadly, I ate it too quickly to get a picture. - Sausage Bread: I honestly, probably hyped this up too much. I was super excited by the home made peanut butter, and the advertisement at the front. I didn't click with it at all though. It wasn't the most flavorful thing to me. Others seemed to love it, so again, it might just be my pallet. - Peanut Butter Bacon Cheeseburger with Fries: This is a classic and fairly hard to mess up. Although the peanut butter didn't do much for me on the sausage bread, it was pretty good with the burger and bacon. Now fries, a lot of places will phone it in and just get some random frozen stuff, but this was really good! The seasoning and everything made it quite tasty! read more

OMG!! They had the WHOLE Restaurant decked out for the holidays!! I initially saw a drone video on social media (super cool you should check it out on their instagram) and instantly knew we had to come! I forgot to book a timely reservation but we decided to try our luck (and glad we did). When we arrived I think we hit the golden minute because while we initially were told we couldn't be seated until roughly 8PM (which was when I booked my reservation) after a few minutes of debating whether we should wait an hour and a half, the concierge desk managed to find us an open table to get us seated in that moment. (THANK YOU!!) and the service the entire night was nothing but super friendly with a hint of homeyness. We started with the Sausage Bread - which sounds gross, but was probably the BEST with the house made peanut butter was delicious and certainly was the star of the entire meal. All of the spices in the bread and the balanced flavor of the peanut butter was like nothing we've ever had before! My husband ordered a bbq double smash burger and I got the chicken tenders with a side of greens.y husband said the burger definitely didn't disappoint and the chicken tenders were home hand breaded with care. They were good - loved the house made BBQ. I also had a couple of N/A drinks, loved the ginger fizzy! So good it had me double guessing whether it was alcoholic. I wasn't as much of a fan with the N/A Bloody Mary - it was a bit too salty for my taste and I think without alcohol the flavor complex changes a bit (I usually love them when alcoholic). All this doesn't even mention the depth of creativity that literally lines the walls with festivity! Looking around these guys did an incredible job decking the halls with hundreds of ornaments, glittery stuffs, lights- you name it! I'm sorry I didn't wear my Xmas sweater like other patrons to join the fun' but it sure made for an exciting night- and with that we'd happily be back! read more

Service was great, atmosphere was very festive, and I love that they're employee-owned. My NA drink tasted watered down though - I wanted less sweet, not watered down. Hubby's hazy IPA was great. The fried cheese curds and sauce were the best I've ever had so far (we're newer to the midwest). A little sweet and spicy sauce was perfect for dipping. My hubby had ordered some Ranch dressing, too (like they need more fat ha). We also split their ham and pear pannini and fries (which they kindly split onto two plates), but we each wondered if our pear slices ended up on the other half. Nope. Each sandwich half literally had 1 slim slice of pear each. The bites with pear were great, without, not so great. I ended up eating the part with pear at the restaurant and took the rest home and had it with my homemade cranberry relish - delicious! read more
