Best Open Kitchen Restaurants in Downtown / Loring Park

On my wife’s birthday, we were treated to an unforgettable dining experience, and the true highlight was our remarkable waiter. His warmth, attentiveness, and genuine enthusiasm made the evening extraordinary. Every detail, from his thoughtful recommendations to his impeccable timing, showed a level of care that went far beyond the ordinary. His infectious smile and engaging personality created a welcoming atmosphere, turning a fantastic meal into a cherished memory. He didn’t just serve us; he crafted an experience that celebrated the occasion with grace and charm. We left feeling truly valued, thanks to his outstanding service.

We had a delightful evening at The Downtowner last night!!! I thoroughly enjoyed my bottle of Dr. Loosen Riesling and my husband said his Black Manhattans were absolutely delicious! Our meals were scrumptious! I had the New York Strip, with horseradish mash potatoes, and he had the Tomahawk Porkchop and basmati rice. The steak and chop were both cooked to perfection and the sides were perfect. We also loved the grilled vegetables. Our servers, Clay and Nicholas, were OUTSTANDING! Both very friendly and attentive! We can't wait to come back!

I come back to Redstone because of the server Tanya. She is fabulous at helping with food options and with my food allergies she makes sure I am covered!

Excellent restaurant—highly recommend for lunch or dinner.
