Review by Hanna Grant

The Restaurant at the Nicollet Island Inn is a hidden gem with a cozy and romantic atmosphere, perfect for a special night out. 🌟 I recently enjoyed their NII burger, which was juicy and topped with thick-cut bacon - truly one of the best in Minneapolis! The sweet potato fries were perfectly crispy and a great addition.

The bartenders, especially Brad, were knowledgeable and friendly, enhancing the experience with their bourbon insights. We capped off our meal with the delightful chocolate mousse, complete with a candle for a special touch. I’d recommend making a reservation in advance - it’s worth it! 🍔✨
