Conveniently located inside the Minneapolis Airport Embassy Suites, it is a 5 minute shuttle ride from the airport. Great food, friendly service with a great atmosphere. They have a bar where you can sit and watch the game, the bartenders and staff make you feel right at home. They also have more formal dining, and they will put on large events as well. It is a local place with regulars, and a warm inviting atmosphere. One of our favorite places to eat. read more

Went in search of a great French Dip Sandwich- more specifically a prime rib sandwich and Yelp took me to Woolleys. I was pretty surprised. I didn't realize the restaurant to be in the hotel. Once inside I thought the ambience was modern, clean and inviting. All three of us (my friends and I) ordered Prime (French) Dips. The meat was delicious and tender. The au jus had nice flavor. I was really impressed with the service. Polite and attentive. read more

We were looking for a quiet upscale restaurant. This was not it. No dining room. The food was good....scallops and shrimp and the short ribs. But, we were seated in a booth next to the loud bar. Won't go back. read more

Best restaurant inside of a hotel I have ever experienced! The food is second to none and Richard is fantastic! The Shrimp and Scallop with lobster bisque was OUTSTANDING!! The Pasta Vodka was amazing! Wine selection and restaurant bar is superb!! I was stuck at Embassy Suites for 3 days due to a blizzard delaying a work trip but now I am planning an entire trip for my family to revisit the hotel and intentionally eat at Woolley's again! read more

Shannon was our server & did a great job!!!! She made the evening a delight with her obvious connection to her customers. My wife had the salmon, and I had the walleye. Both dishes were perfect, done just right and very tasty. I do have a warning though, if you order a dessert sampler, you better have room as it isn't really a "sample," it's a full portion of each selection. We learned the hard way, LOL !! read more

You can't make reservations for a large party online. It has to be by phone per the website. I tried calling the restaurant and got the voicemail every single time. I left 3 messages and got no answer in return for a good 2-3days. No one ever called me back. The only way I was able to make a reservation was by emailing the restaurant. The manager replied within a business day. The day of my reservation I wanted to know if there was a dress code for the restaurant so I called and got voicemail again. Again no calls back. I tried their Facebook page, no answer. I emailed the manager and got a response within a few hours so bottom line is do not call. Email the restaurant. If you have a big party please make your reservation at least a week or two in advance because chances are people won't reply right away. Food was good but nothing exceptional. The inside of the restaurant is pretty. Good ambiance but I would not come back. read more

Biff is the best! (Richard) We had amazing food and amazing drinks! But most importantly wonderful service! read more

Ramon/Richard was hilarious and awesome. Really brought the experience to the next level. Every dish/drink he suggested was spot on. I'd actually come to a hotel to eat even if I'm not staying here next time I'm in the area. Who does that?! Also made a specialty cocktail for my wife that I need to learn how to make now. Ask for the gangster booth. Ramon will know. read more

Food was excellent. I had the shrimp/scallop risotto. Delicious. The calamari and Korean taco apps were also excellent. Ask for Richard! He rocks!!! read more

The service was fantastic and the bar area was very nice. However, the food was very disappointing. The filet was $45 and not worth it. Came with inedible broccolini and cheesy mashed potatoes. The potatoes were definitely laying around in a warmer. Basically seemed like buffet food besides the steak. The "Demi glacé" ruined the entire steak dish. read more

I am not usually a "dine in the hotel" sort of person, but I was feeling a bit lazy tonight and decided to try the in-house steakhouse. I have to say, I was very pleasantly surprised with my dinner! The Red-Eye Ribeye was one of the best that I have ever had in a restaurant, and perfectly cooked to my request. The Brussels sprouts (with bacon, shallots and maple glaze) were pretty amazing and almost made me wonder why I didn't order that alone as an entree. At any rate, the food was fantastic, and the service was also top notch! For sure I will do this again :) read more

We got a room service at embassy suite from Woolley's. The food was great and the room service is good. For two days we ordered room services and each day we loved the food. One day we got pizza, calamari and truffle fries. The next day we got shrimp flatbread, buffalo wings and burger. All the food was great. We enjoyed it. read more

Pretty bad experience. Overcooked steak. Dry baked potato and asparagus still had its stalks. Béarnaise sauce was thick and salty. Everything was salty, service wasn't attentive. I needed some water to help wash down that food. read more

Where should I start.... food, drink, dessert, don't forget waiter Shawn! All . French onion soup.... can't compare with any other place. Whenever I order French onion at any restaurant, it's so salty, but here, it was just perfect. Meat, salad, dessert! Come try it. read more

Located within the Embassy Suites near the Mall of America, this is one reasons I stay here while in St Paul. The food is terrific and the wait staff keeps my water glass full. I've never been disappointed with any of the food. See my latest photos for proof. Hard to believe this is inside a Hilton hotel but I'm sure glad it is. read more

I've stayed at the attached hotel(embassy suites) on and off for the last month. Every time I come into this restaurant/bar it takes forever to be served. It seems as if the bartender sees me and masks eye contact several times but still blows me off. I under being under staffed. Tonight I come in again and I had to wait 10!minutes for a beer. Two people behind the bar made eye contact and never said a word. I give the bartender 10.00 for my one beer. I assumed it would be expensive and was more than likely going to give the change to the bartender. My bill was 8.73 and she give me back 1.00, not cheap at all, but when you assume my money is yours then I have a problem. The bartenders are rude. read more

This was recommended by our hotel and was surprised that they'd send us somewhere else. It was great. I really enjoyed it. Service was fantastic and food was heat. Don't really go to many bars in a hotel and this was a wonderful surprise! Would definitely come back. read more

We pulled up with a large group about an hour before closing and we were welcomed and served well. The food was good and well-priced. Our server did her best to take care of all of us--even as individual checks had to be sorted out. read more

Woolley's provided exceptional service during our stay. Ivan and Diamond were both professional and engaged in our group to ensure we received exceptional service. They were courteous and efficient at all levels. We will absolutely choose Embassy Suites for our business needs going forward! read more

Excellent service and wonderful pork chops. Service was quick but not rushed. Food was hot. The meatball soup was delicious

Okay steak house with fresh bread, nice prime rib with sauces and great service. It is in the Embassy Suites and it's nice inside with 80's style interior. Very convenient for a meal with time to kill before a flight. Prime rib was cooked nicely and was satisfying. read more

I have to say, I hate leaving reviews like this especially considering places are understaffed however, the service and attention to detail regarding our meal tonight was subpar considering. Despite alerting our server to the fact that I have a dairy and gluten allergy, my food arrived with a butter sauce on it. They had to send it back to be remade which took another 30-40 minutes. The people I was with had eaten and finished before my food was back. During this whole time, our server hadn't been back to the table since she took our order. Eventually my food came out and it was over cooked. In addition, the baked potato that was served with my steak tasted like it had been cooking for quite some time, possibly a day or more. It wasn't a great experience, there's a few things that could use improvement. read more

I considered giving this 1 star based on just the steaks but gave it 2 since the service was fantastic and the Brussels sprouts appetizer was great. The steaks were awful though. We had 2 filets and a rib eye and they were all over cooked (we ordered them all medium and there was no pink at all) and they didn't taste like good quality. Definitely wouldn't go here again for steak. read more

We were so glad to be able to find a spot for a late dinner on a Sunday night right in the Embassy Suites. We sat in a cozy booth in the bar. The service was great. We enjoyed the very tasty cocktails. My husband had a wonderful Manhattan and I enjoyed a spot on Cosmo. The food was fantastic. A flatbread pizza with shrimp scampi and walleye fingers. We couldn't decide which one we liked better. We shared the bread pudding for dessert. Oh my, that was so yummy. Bravo for the great experience and for being open on a Sunday evening. read more

From the first second I stepped in Richard made me feel like a V.I.P. and it was a fantastic meal of Korean Tacos. I'll be back!

I have eaten here several times while staying at the hotel for business. Usually sit at the bar as I'm alone. The service has always been terrific and the food is excellent. Recommend the Korean beef tacos. The quesadilla was a let down though. Depending on the time of year I guess it can get plenty crowded. Ive seen it fully packed and nearly empty on different stays. read more

We were looking for a place for a nice steak. Imagine our surprise when we found so much more. Our server Laura was engaging and friendly. Wich was rather welcoming with our current Covid situation. Ivan the bartender made a meticulous Lemon tini and provided tasty recommendations for a beer flight. Our meal was brought out quickly by Javier and exceeded our expectation! Yes, it is a hotel restraunt but please do not let that stop you! The service, food, and breverages were exceptional! read more

We have been to Woolley's several times since we discovered it last year. The dinner menu is really great - especially the variety on the menu. The calamari and truffle fries are incredible! The signature cocktails were also good - and they have a good variety of craft beers on tap. I have had the flatbread pizza and scallops and shrimp dinner - we have never been disappointed! The service is good - we like the booths in the bar area because it is really cozy. This has become a favorite! I would recommend for a casual dinner or celebration. read more

First time at Woolley's but we'll be back! Great atmosphere and excellent service! Shout out to Zach our bartender, mixed a great cocktail and made good recommendations from the menu. We enjoyed walleye bites, ribeye, pork chops, and seafood. Can't wait to go back! read more

Stayed at Embassy Suites for the night so we were closer to the airport for our flight the next day. When trying to decide on dinner for the night we saw Woolley's was just downstairs. We ended up getting room service from there. The food was delivered quickly and was hot upon arrival. Had the pretzel for an appetizer which were hot and soft. The MN Cheesesteak sandwich was good as well. My wife enjoyed the Beet Salad with salmon on top. Would definitely stay there again and eat at Woolley's. read more

Talk about a hidden gem right in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area! We typically don't go to restaurants inside of hotels (I don't know why, but we just don't), but when we were looking to celebrate a birthday somewhere a little different, we logged into OpenTable to see who had last-minute reservations open on a Saturday night and Woolley's came up! Not only was the restaurant space inside the atrium of the Embassy Suites, it had a super chill ambiance. The service was great (thanks, Heather) and the food exceeded my expectations. I ordered the black and blue pasta, which was pretty much amazing. It had beef tips in the pasta and they were cooked perfectly. The sauce was also super tasty and it had just the right amount of blue cheese crumbles to add great taste, but not overpower. The only thing I would change is the bread that comes with the pasta, it was lackluster. Minneapolis, even though this restaurant is inside a hotel right by the airport, it's worth a visit. read more

Food was about Pub quality... good portions... but Richard, our server, made the experience great! He was engaging with our kids and was fast and efficient. Would come back when staying at the Embassy Suites and will be asking for Richard's section. read more

We had a smaller reservation for at Woolley's for a large party I called weeks later to see if they could change the number of people and time and they returned my call promptly to say they could. Not only did they do that, the day of they seated some of our party early and gave us great service. Raechel was one of that most amazing servers I have ever seen! For a party of 20 with all different needs, she was quick, efficient, patient, fun, and caring to all of us. And I haven't even gotten to the food! The food was some of the best I have ever had. I was very pleasantly surprised since this restaurant is inside of a hotel. We all ordered several appetizers and loved them all. Our favorites were the walleye fingers and calamari. Everyone loved their pasta entrees and the dessert sampler was to die for! Highly recommend this restaurant!! read more

This used to be called Woolley's Steakhouse when we dined here 5 years ago for our anniversary and I gave it a 4-star rating back then. We had a great experience then so we decided to come back for my sister-in-law's 70th birthday. It was a Sunday, and there were only 2 other tables occupied, so I thought that was a bit strange. We sat ourselves at a table for 4 and the hostess greeted us with a smile and an exuberant charm taking drink orders and bringing water. Nice start. While we waited for drinks we noticed that it was cold and drafty in the 5-story atrium where we sat so I checked around and noticed that all the tables were similarly drafty. About 10 minutes later, a different server appeared, and I asked if the temperature could be raised slightly and she said no, but later brought me a blanket - a nice gesture. Our drinks finally arrived and she asked if were ready to order, but we were not, so she said she'd be back in a few minutes. Well, it had to be 20 - 30 minutes later when we began looking for her and could not find her. After a while longer, I went to the bar and asked someone to send her to our table to place our order. She then appeared immediately. When I asked how the red-eye rib eye was prepared, she said with coffee... what? Is that a rub; is there a wine or pan sauce, I asked? "No wine and no sauce", she said, but my wife encouraged me to try it. After all, we had had such a great meal 5 years ago and the website says the same chef was still here so I said okay, I'll try it with Bearnaise sauce-glazed broccolini. The other 3 guests all had the 10 oz filet and my wife ordered the loaded baked potato side. Apparently, due to COVID, the salad bar is gone that had been included with all dinners on our last visit. We all ordered either soup or salad that arrived about 15 minutes later. My 1/2 wedge salad was smaller than I expected but tasted good nonetheless. My wife's French Onion soup tasted like canned beef broth. About 30 minutes later, our steaks arrived. My red-eye rib eye looked flabby with some kind of yellow-brown coating that was not appetizing. I thought maybe it was the Bearnaise sauce broiled on top as there was no Bearnaise on the broccolini so I asked for some. When the busboy brought it over, it was thin and watery so I didn't eat it. My rib eye had so much fat that after I cut it all off, I had about half the 16 oz steak left. My wife's loaded potato tasted old like it had been sitting in a steam table for hours. The steaks were not properly grilled and the sides seemed as if they were either precooked or kept warm. We did get a free dessert to share that was quite good, but the service was so slow that it added to the disappointment of our meals as we constantly had to ask the busboy to send our server to our table. I left very disappointed after 2 1/2 hours of a 3-course meal costing over $300! We'll not be returning to this once great steakhouse! read more
