Red Rabbit just doesn't miss! Me and my girl friends went for their $20 "girl dinner" and were so glad we checked it out! The girl dinner - on Sundays-Thursdays only after 8pm - consisted of a mini Caesar salad, vodka pasta, rosemary fries, and a Hugo spritz. Delish! The portions were about what you'd expect for a deal like this so you know we had to top it off with some dessert. The sticky toffee cake and tiramisu were group favorites! As always, the food is fantastic and the service was good. Parking is about what you'd expect in downtown Minneapolis (paid street or paid lots) but they do have a small parking lot in the back and if you're lucky you may get a spot. read more

I've been here several times and the food and service are consistently great! You have to get their garlic bread cheese curds!! My other favorites are the cavatelli and spicy salami pizza. They have great happy hour deals! Whether I go alone or with a group of 6, I've always had a good experience. Notes - they are walk in only. Parking is limited in the area but there is street parking and some lots nearby. read more

Red Rabbit is a spot where I always get my favorites and don't stray because why try and fix something that ain't broke!? Their cavatelli is ALWAYS my go to for dinner - it's saucy, savory, and so so yummy every time. For dessert the sticky toffee pudding is the best I've found in the cities! Rich and moist, with the whipped cream on top that balances it out because it's not too sweet. Service is always great here as well! This is a great place to go with your family, for a date, OR if you want to sit at the bar and have a drink and a meal. Parking can be tough in Minneapolis but there is street parking available. read more

I'm picky, and so I can't give Red Rabbit five stars, but I liked it. My wife and I were scouting our new neighborhood before we move, and chose Red Rabbit for lunch. Interestingly, it's one block east of what has been our North Loop border, which has been 3rd Avenue. Why we placed an iron curtain on 3rd Avenue is beyond me. The bar was pleasant and fun on a weekday afternoon. My Espresso Martini was good, and the beer selection will make most people happy. I thought my Caesar salad was great; the taste came through without any need to deconstruct that many restaurants feel inclined to do. Our grinders were good, but there was too much stuff on them to call the sandwich a New England grinder; the name is more marketing than reality. Our server/bartender, Aiden, was engaging and fun. He's the kind of server every restaurant should have. We will return to Red Rabbit when we move to the North Loop in August. I can't wait. read more

Every now and then I take myself out for a little shopping, thrifting, eating, and drinking on a random weekday in the middle of the month. After a full day of thrifting, I decided it was time for dinner, and after passing this place for years, I finally decided to stop in. I was seated at a charming table for two. The interior had the vibe of a historic building, with brick, vaulted ceilings, and large windows. I ordered the Amatriciana from that day's specials menu along with the chocolate cherry martini. Typically I don't like sweet drinks, but this was fantastically balanced. As sweet as it was, it packed an equal punch. It felt decadent and sinfully delicious. The pasta itself was perfectly cooked, and the sauce was well made, with bits of fatty, crispy pork adding a rich, well-developed flavor. I parked on one of the downtown streets and walked about a block to the restaurant. read more

Love the vibes here. Super romantic and sultry with how dark it is. Perfect for date night. It is loud and you are sat real close to other tables but it was still a great time. My friends and I did the girl dinner here and it was so good! We all thought it was the perfect amount of food, we loved that it's a set menu so we didn't have to make any decisions! Pasta, salad, fries and a drink for $20?! In Minneapolis! Great deal! Love that they have sparkling water as an option for no extra charge. We celebrated a birthday here too that night and appreciated the candle from the server. I really hate going to Minneapolis and paying for parking but it was worth it for this night! We just found some street metered parking. Such a fun time! Check it out if you are in the area. read more

Red Rabbit Minneapolis - Girl Dinner - Italian Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

Searched for a unique non-buffet spot for Sunday brunch and Red Rabbit checked all the boxes. We had a leisurely brunch trying many spritzes and recommended (and even one totally free!) brunch cocktails. The food was great, we had amazingly fresh shrimp and grits (and having just come from SC, we've tried a lot) and an Italian inspired florentine omelette with fresh herbs and cheese. We even got a kids pizza to give it a try and would for sure get a full sized in the future. Great service all around from the bartenders, the hosts, seemingly managers, and our server herself. It was a bit toasty so we sat inside by the bar but the covered patio looked really loved on a cooler day. read more

Quick date night at Red Rabbit in downtown Minneapolis! We were lucky enough to snag a canceled reservation and were seated immediately upon arrival, despite the restaurant being bustling and busy. I wish we could have enjoyed the outdoor patio as the dining room was a bit loud and dim, but that seems to be part of the restaurant's modern rustic Italian aesthetic. As for the food and service, everything was top-notch. Our order was taken promptly and both our drinks and dishes arrived quickly without feeling rushed. I ordered the spirit-free Lavender Revolution, which leaned a little sweet for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. The burrata was outstanding--light, refreshing, and incredible on the toasted bread. The calamari was equally impressive -- perfectly seasoned, crispy, and tender with every bite. For our entrée, we shared the Vodka Rigatoni with added shrimp and it was absolutely delicious--rich, fresh, and comforting without feeling too heavy. Overall Red Rabbit delivered a fantastic dining experience from start to finish. We can't wait to come back and work our way through more of the menu! read more

My wife and I went to the Red Rabbit our first night in Minneapolis for dinner. We arrived around 8PM on a Saturday night. We were promptly seated. Our waiter was extremely friendly and attentive. My wife had a salad with chicken and I had the vodka rigatoni with chicken. We both enjoyed our meals. The lack of stars on my end is portion size. The vibe and service were both very good. No bread with my meal and looking at my picture, do you feel that's worth $23.00? I enjoyed my meal but I'd take a gander elsewhere. Definitely a trendy restaurant. read more

This restaurant lives up to the hype! I came as a solo diner on a Saturday night, and sat at a table by the bar area. The waitress was very helpful with picking dishes and a drink, and the dessert she recommended was phenomenal. I had the pepperoncini martini (extra brine) sausage pasta, Italian salad, and sticky toffee cake. Everything was amazing, and I can't wait to take everyone I know back to sample that dessert! Very excited to come back with family to try more dishes - seems like it would be more family friendly on a weekday or earlier in the evening! read more

Outside, mothers day, great wait staff, great food and surrounded by flowing plants. Could it get any better? Yes, because the food is amazing with great variety and flavors. The selection of drinks and wine is very good, and not obnoxiously priced. The beer selection, honestly, kind of stinks. Hopefully they'll look local and update the selections of beers. Hit them with one less star over the beer - might be harsh but some of us enjoy beer. Highly recommend, seating outside was fantastic. Enjoy it's worth it. read more

Came here for "girl dinner" - a $20 special that includes a Hugo spritz (perfectly sweet and refreshing), Cesar salad, truffle fries, and vodka rigatoni! The truffle fries were delicious, especially with the Parmesan dip that we asked for on the side. We had to top off girl dinner with dessert and between the 6 of us, tried the sticky, toffee cake, panna cotta, tiramisu, and chocolate budino. Sticky toffee cake was our top pick, panna cotta was okay. Parking is always a bit of a challenge in north loop which is my only complaint, but overall a nice spot with great service and delicious eats! read more

Red Rabbit must be a staple in the Minneapolis area because it was packed and the entrance was overcrowded with patrons with for seating. We were able to be immediately seated prior to the rush, which was around 5pm-ish. There is indoor and outdoor seating as well as seating at the bar. Great for groups. The restaurant is pretty big. I'm not an Italian cuisine fan but the food was pretty good. Get the oysters (pictured). I had the salmon piccata. Delicious. My mother had the chicken parm and she liked it as well. The kids spaghetti was an ample size, which I appreciative. read more

Wow, wow, WOW! I was super impressed with Red Rabbit, the only disappointing thing about dining here was that I haven't eaten here sooner! First of all, service here is top notch. We sat at the bar, and the bartender was the perfect amount of attentive without being overbearing. But besides that, she did a great job recommending things to us. The manager also came over and we had a nice conversation with her; she helped me figure out what I should order with my dairy issues. Red Rabbit is one of the best service experiences we have had in the Twin Cities, hands down. The food was amazing too. I got the marinera pizza and the cauliflower, both "plant based" (vegan, including dairy-free). I found out after ordering that if your issue is simply dairy, you can also order the vegan bolognese and then substitute pork sausage for the vegan sausage; I will definitely do that next time. But both the pizza and the cauliflower were excellent, the pizza was perfectly crisp and a bit spicy, and the cauliflower was delicious. For drinks, we each had a version of an aperol spritz (being a 'Roman" restaurant, they of course have a ton of "spritz" drinks, including a flight). I also had an old fashioned, which was the only thing I consumed that evening that I didn't really care for (I would get it with a different bourbon; their whiskey was too earthy for me). All in all, this place is a hit, even if you are vegan/dairy-free, one of my new favorite italian restaurants! read more

I absolutely loved red rabbit!!! as long as I've lived in Minneapolis, this has been my first time there. I went with a group for a friend's birthday, and the service was absolutely incredible, the server laughed with us made jokes, and made it so easy to be there as a group. It was a perfect setting, where it was not too loud, and I loved the interior decoration and vibe of the place! The food was so incredible and I can't wait to go there again! I couldn't choose between the pesto or vodka pasta so my friend and I split both of them and they split it for us on different plates which was so nice! Can't wait for the next visit!! read more

We ate here with a vegan friend and it was the first time I've ever actually eaten in the restaurant, though I've ordered delivery a few times. The restaurant itself was nice and welcoming. It is pretty dark, and all of our old eyes were having trouble seeing the menu. But it's got ambiance at least. I do find it odd that they do not take dinner reservations here - just brunch and lunch. So it's first come first served when you come for dinner. Fortunately, they were able to seat us immediately so all good. My husband got the limon mocktail, which he said was good. My whiskey ginger was good. We ordered the garlic cheese curds which came to the table piping hot and really really yummy. We also got a half dozen oysters, which were fine, presented well with a trio of sauces. I'd give them a 8/10 for the shucking but they were still totally edible and great. Bonus points to our waiter for knowing exactly what types of oysters he had available. For dinner, I got the bolognase, my friend got the vegan bolognase, and my husband got a pizza. The pizza was reportedly good - it looked good. My friend ate almost her entire plate, so hers must have been good. Unfortunately, my pasta was overcooked and a bit gummy, and my dish overall was lukewarm. I think it must have been the first one done and sat on the line in the kitchen for awhile. I only ate half of it and honestly am not excited about the leftovers. It's weird because I've ordered that exact same dish for delivery and been absolutely pleased with it. So hopefully it was a one off. We skipped dessert. read more

My favorite Italian spot in Minneapolis! You must get the mastaccioli and add meatballs! The food is very reasonably priced - most other Italian places charge $25-30 a plate but here it is about $20 or less. The wine gets expensive but if you swing in for just pasta over lunch it is a great value spot. Good for date nights and going out with friends. 10/10! read more

We were staying at the Four Seasons when we saw this local restaurant and decided to give it a try. The people were friendly, and the place was clean and well-organized.

Came here with some friends on an early Sunday afternoon. They had brunch as well as offering the full menu. We were sat in the bar area, they also have a nice patio as well as a regular dining room. I ordered nitro cold brew, my friend got a cute chocolate cherry drink. For food I got the pickle pizza w/out the meat (pork), my friends got pasta, one got the salmon pasta and it was really good. My friend was going to order tiramisu to go but I guess they build it at the table so she skipped it. Our waiter was super attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. Overall I'd come back to check out more pasta's and offerings. read more

Red Rabbit is easily one of my go-to happy hour spots in Minneapolis. Great vibe, great prices, and the food always hits. I got the wings, cheese curds, and split some oysters, all were super flavorful and surprisingly filling. Paired it with an Indeed Mexican Honey Lager (which in my opinion pair perfectly with the wings). Service is usually solid here, but when I went with a group of 6 (all ordering off the happy hour menu), it took about an hour to get our food, which was a bit of a letdown. Hoping that was just a one-off, because I've had way better experiences in the past. Overall, still a spot I'd recommend for an after-work hangout, pregaming a Twins game, or even a casual date. read more

My friend and I stopped by on a Saturday night around 8:30 PM, although the restaurant was busy, we were still able to be seated right away. Though our server was very nice, service itself was a bit slow. We got our appetizer right away but drinks and food took a long time. For our appetizer, we got garlic bread cheese curds which were good. They give you a lot for one portion. For my main, I got the Spaghetti and Meatballs. The meatballs were tasty (but there weren't that many). The spaghetti was nice, but it could have been just a bit more al dente. The sauce itself was pretty basic and a bit boring. My friend got a pizza which was great. I thought it was better than the spaghetti and meatballs. All in all, a nice restaurant option but with some items that shone more than others. read more

We dined here on Sunday, August 31st, party of two, with an arrival at about 8:45pm. We had an excellent experience, and honestly -- this was probably our restaurant highlight of our trip to MSP. Red Rabbit is located in a very vibrant area of downtown, even on a holiday weekend, where Downtown is not the busiest of areas, this place seemed to be doing pretty well. We had a wonderful server this evening. Her name was Natalie, and she was very pleasant, made great recommendations and overall had a great attitude. We started with some drinks, and my first choice unfortunately was not available (Frose machine was down); however, I settled on another drink, which was also great. So, we ended up sharing both the Italian Chopped Salad and the PB&J Pizza. Both were excellent. The Chopped Salad was perfectly tossed and dressed with a great assortment of ingredients including salami, pepperoni, provolone, chickpeas, peppers and olives. The Pizza was Pepperoni, Bacon and Jalapeno. It was also good, crispy, baked to a golden brown, with a good amount of toppings. YUM! We each got our own dessert, although we tried both. We got the Sticky Toffee Cake and the Chocolate Budino. Although they were both good, the Sticky Toffee Cake was the winner. This was next level. We were once at a Hells Kitchen restaurant, (the Gordon Ramsey one, not the one in MSP) and this one gave that one a clear rival to watch out for. Overall, an excellent meal. We wish this restaurant much success in the future. read more

Yum! We recently saw an instagram reel showcasing Red Rabbit's brunch and knew we had to give it a try! We made reservations ahead of time but I think if you get there right at 10 when they open for brunch you would be able to get a table. It was getting busy when we left around 11. The ambiance of the restaurant was really cool. They had lots of cocktails, wines, and n/an options to choose from. We didn't order any beverages but the food absolutely blew us away! My fiancé said it may have been top 10 best things he's ever eaten! He had the piadia which is more of a breakfast burrito. I had the French toast, which was so rich and amazing! We also split the fontina hash which had this crispy outer shell and was warm and flavorful in the middle! We will 100% be back! read more

This was my second time at Red Rabbit but my first time at this location. The parking lot was full but we lucked out with a street spot right outside. We got seated right away and it seemed a lot of people were there before a twins game or to beat the heat since temps were in the 90s. We got the focaccia to share and then I ordered chicken Alfredo and my friend got the cavatelli. The focaccia was AMAZING, probably the best I've had. Their chicken Alfredo is also fantastic. It's hard because they have so many great options and everything is good so it's hard to pick! read more

From the moment you step into The Red Rabbit, you're wrapped in a warm, sophisticated vibe that blends upscale tavern charm with a cozy, unpretentious energy. It's the kind of place that feels like a neighborhood staple and a hidden gem all at once -- where the lighting is perfect, the playlist hits just right, and the food? Exceptional. The wood-fired entrees are clearly crafted by a chef who knows their way around bold flavor and subtle finesse. Every dish we tried struck the ideal balance of rustic comfort and modern culinary technique. Think elevated classics with a twist -- nothing fussy, everything refined. Our server, Natalie, was a standout in her own right: warm, welcoming, and impressively knowledgeable, not only about the menu but about the local scene. Her recommendations felt more like insights from a friend than a script from a training manual. Yes, the price tag leans toward the higher end -- but make no mistake, it's priced appropriately for the quality, care, and creativity behind every plate. The Red Rabbit doesn't just serve dinner; it offers an experience -- and one I can't wait to have again read more

This is the Red Cow's sister restaurant. It's more Italian based food options. There is also a location in St Paul. I've come here for the great brunch, amazing summer patio and good food. On the weekends and and occasions, like Mother's Day, there's an added menu for brunch. You really can't go wrong, but the homemade pasta and meat blends are what they do best. The kids even love their mac n cheese with beautifully rolled noodles. I recommend the butternut squash ravioli or the mastacholi. The apps are the same as Red Cow. However, there is a unique and delicious dessert to order, make it to go if you don't leave room in your belly to eat it!
