Extensive wine list, dining is an event here. It's not fast food so if you're in a hurry you're better off elsewhere. We were not disappointed at all.

I've never had a disappointing experience, however - it is true that if you have to ask how much it costs, you probably can't afford it. If you're willing to go into the meal without regard for the price, you'll have an exceptional meal. You can save money by skipping the wine, a wine coupling with a tasting menu ($85) can run you an extra $50 per person. Your servers can recommend a beer or you can keep your palate unbiased with simple water. This is a leisurely meal, I see some reviews that mentioned the time it took to get their dishes - this is to ensure that you have time to enjoy it, not be insulted by a borrage of food. The courses are small so that when it's time for dessert, you're 'almost' too full, but never really - there's always room and you won't be sorry. The food is genius! The evening is meant to last - you decide if the price tag is 'worth it'. I say it is...

At fist glance the atmosphere is wonderful. Cozy little bar area, open art-deco-wannabe restaurant. But a big disappointment after that. If this is the best the Twin Cities has to offer, you "betcha" we're in big trouble. The Campbell-less soup had as much substance as Jesse Ventura's state of the state speech. The service was adaquate if you looked anxious or important enough. Otherwise, buy an over-priced glass/bottle of wine and come prepared for some while-you-wait-a-long-time conversation. Then the piece of unresistence ... the famed Wisconsin veal. Another reason the cheesheads are laughing at us right now. Okay, it tasted fine, once you surgically removed all the grizzly fat, which there was more of than the advertised tastey veal. Hardly worth the $34 listed price. Afterwards, some lukewarm coffee that was fitting of the meal and experience. The only thing that met my expectations was the bill ... it was as overpriced as I was underwhelmed. Blah! Two sta ... more

Over rated. Food is OK, but not wonderful, especially for the price. Wine list is to expensive.

"THE" place to go for any special occasion (or if you want to impress someone)- have never been disspointed with any facet of this establishment - they have it all food, wines, atmosphere & service. The only thing that could mar an evening here is the company you choose to bring!

For a restaurant to be considered truly great, the guest should consider the meal an event, with every component of the evening contributing to his or her enjoyment. Goodfellows is one of the rare restaurants that succeeds at attempting to be truly great. The ambience, mood, service, wine list and (of course) the food itself blend their individual excellence to make something greater than the sum of its parts. When in town, I make a habit of frequenting this gem as one of my 5 'must-do's' of Minneapolis.

I think one of the best restaurants in the Twin Cities (perhaps THE best) and ranks up there as one of the better I have ever eaten at on a good day. Terrific wine list.
