The Sonder Shaker - Minneapolis

I celebrated my birthday with my family at this restaurant. We began our meal with appetizers: the Brussels sprouts were outstanding, and the short ribs were delicious. For dinner, we ordered two burgers, two servings of Jalapeño Pesto Pasta, and one Rock Steak with mushrooms. Everyone was thrilled with their choices. We also ordered some beautiful drinks that were presented beautifully. For dessert, we couldn't resist getting the Banana Split, which came with banana bread and a homemade strawberry sauce, as well as chocolate mousse. To top it off, they surprised me with a large piece of chocolate cake—complete with wrinkles! It was a wonderful birthday celebration. Thank you for a lovely evening!

Absolutely blown away from this place. Beer on tap. Deliciously grilled Romain Caesar, one of the best burgers I had (think culver's style, but chic wagyu with a delicious sauce. And with our great and attentive server, Devon. Tried mussels for the first time and regret not to order them earlier. I'll be back. Update: Your brunch is obviously unrealistic, but see some photos. Really enjoyed the biscuits and Gravy, which somehow photographs well, as the chicken and waffle. My partner loved the crab cake Benedict. After a year plus living in the city, I can confidently say, Special Shaker is my favorite restaurant. We'll be back again and again.

One of our favorite restaurants not just in Northeast, but in all of Minneapolis! The vibe is great, drinks are good, and every single thing we've ordered for food has been fantastic. Pork chop fire! (But sadly not on the menu anymore. Brussels sprouts are amazing. Fries are a must. Jalapeño pesto pasta is unique, and great! And I saved the best for last get the burger. One of the best in the city!

For the oysters, photos added. The baked cheese masked the caviar and was a bad pairing. It was also priced at about triple to four times what it should have been. I hear this place is good on normal nights, avoid on nights that require reservations or Holidays and weekends. They ran out of food on a reservation only Valentines night and only let us know after 2 hours/after we ordered our food. Trust me you don’t want to be here when things hit the fan. Avoid busy nights like the plague. *Update, they did provide a gift card refund. I appreciate that and have updated the review. Still ruined valentines day with my SO but respect the response.

This place is really amazing! From the beginning, the service was great. Our server Brandon was top notch. The cocktails were really creative and delicious. The appetizers were great, who lived perfectly seasoned, crispy Smashburger until the hype! And the bananas Foster bread pudding was for dying. We will definitely come back!
