About
The menu changed since the last time we visited, but there were still vegetarian options and good drinks. We will be back.
I've always had a great meal at the Fire Lake Grill. We chose this restaurant last year for Thanksgiving because my wife was sick and didn't want to make anyone else cook. The four of us had a lovely time; me, my wife, my daughter and my granddaughter. Penny passed away this year, so we decided to go back to Fire Lake Grill to remember her on our first Thanksgiving without her. It was exceptional as usual. This restaurant is a class act.
Took myself and a date there before heading to the Orpheum. We had a few drinks and appetizers and ended our time there with some cheesecake! Definitely a great spot.
Food was good, service great. Drinks from cocktail menu
We’re delicious.
The server and the food were both spot on! Great bar and cocktails after a Vikings game. Worth the walk...
Dear SidewalkDiner, Thank you so much for your positive review. I am delighted to hear that you enjoyed your meal! We look forward to serving you again the next time you are dining in downtown Minneapolis.
Great food and service. Ambience just ok
Average food. Not cheap. Excellent waitress.
Food needs more of a chefs touch.

Server was experience and helped us to understand it was happy hour. Very honesty and respect it
Amazing appetizers. My friends and I ordered a smorgasbord of items from the menu. The Walleye Fritters we flaky, moist with a nice kick from the Cajun seasoning. The sriracha maple sauce on the wings was delicious. The poutine had flavorful crispy fries and a generous amount of cheese curds; no ketchup needed. The margarita flatbread was delicious with the traditional toppings and a bonus ricotta cheese. The Minnesota salad was crunchy and well balanced. I didn't try the Gathered greens, but my friends said the mix of the squash, walnuts and greens was delicious. We loved the tomato soup with grilled cheese, but the wild rice soup was disappointing -- lacked the flavor of the other dishes. We loved our experience and enjoyed some unique cocktails as well. I highly recommend this restaurant.
Dear JoAnneG, Thank you so much for your positive feedback. I'm thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your meal! We look forward to serving you again the next time you are dining in downtown Minneapolis.
Pleasant service and surroundings, good food. A good choice for conversation--a nice hum of activity but acoustics good for hearing your dining partner.

Our waiter and the rest of the staff were excellent. Our waiter was so patient with us when my friend and I were talking so much we kept forgetting to look at the menu. He didn’t hover, and allowed us our space. Very nice guy as was another man working there who noticed us looking at the tiled floor and came over to chit chat about it. The ambiance of the restaurant is very nice and the noise level was good. The food, however, was only alright. I had the vegetable burger and it was pretty bland and the bun was more like a large and dry dinner roll. My friend had the soup and sandwich special and she said her was just okay too.

We arrived at 4:30 because we wanted items on the lunch menu. We got a dinner menu when we sat down. We asked the waiter for a lunch menu, he said he would have to ask the kitchen but it turned out OK. Food was very good as was service. We’ve had a nice breakfast there and we would recommend this.

Overall Not Bad. Just looking for a dinner bite and thought we'd try something close to the hotel. Menu was limited. Wife's meal was good and they graciously corrected the initial error in the order. My steak was OK, but that's about it. Excellent wait staff.

I ordered the prime rib and for the price thought that the meal was very average. Wife said the same thing about her fish dish.

This restaurant was fine, but that’s about it. We arrived at 11:30 and had a reservation so we were sat right away. Our server got us water right away, but then didn’t come back for about 15 minutes. We ordered and got our food at about 12:20 - this is a long time to wait for an empty restaurant and only 4 people. It was a little overpriced for the amount you got, but tasted fine. Overall not a bad experience, but it was only “fine.”

Wonderful meal. My husband and I were visiting Minneapolis for a wedding and decided to try this restaurant. We had the walleye fritters, burrata/tomato salad, the HUGE charcuterie board and he had a salad...sorry I can't remember which one but it sure looked delicious. The housemade spicy bison jerky on the "board" was AWESOME! Everything was fresh and delicious.
Dear kiminindy, Thank you for taking the time to review your experience. I am delighted to hear that you and your husband enjoyed your meal! I hope we have the pleasure of serving you again the next time you are dining in downtown Minneapolis.
Meals were very good but we would never return. Service was terrible...once meals were served our server never checked on any needs though she walked past our table many times.

Location ok for where we were going. Not a stellar experience. Adequate. Food ok. Staff competent. No super customer service.

Had an awesome waiter who was fun, attentive and knowledgeable. We had a great time with friends and did not feel hurried or rushed.

We were headed to the Twins game and made reservations for Sunday brunch. The walleye hash was amazing, every delicious bite. Although we had our Twins shirts on we were treated with warm smiles and respect. I’ll be back again! Thank you.
Thank you so much for your positive feedback. I'm thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your meal! We hope to serve you again before the next Twins game.
At first Was impressed with atmosphere but then they seated us in a booth right behind a wine tasting so was very distracting and the place was empty so we could have been seated somewhere else. The entrees are not worth the price. Ordered the cheese cake dessert and it tasted like playdough. We were hopeful as the place got 4 stars for most reviews. Left with disappointment that we spent 120.00 to eat here.

An excellent choice for lunch. The braised red cabbage was the best I have ever eaten.
Dear Art, thank you so much for your positive review. I am delighted to hear that you enjoyed your lunch! I hope we have the opportunity to serve you again the next time you are dining in downtown Minneapolis.
The parking was complicated for someone who wasn’t at the hotel. The food was good but overall it didn’t blow me away.
Dear Lydia, thank you for your honest feedback. I apologize for the parking concerns you shared. Parking is available in the public parking lot beneath the hotel, or restaurant valet is available daily from 4-10pm for $10. I hope we have the opportunity to serve you again soon.
Not sure I would recommend it, but that was not an option. It was okay, but there are better places in the area.
Food was just ok. Nothing spectacular. It’s in the Radisson Blu so it was a little pricey. We had some of their signature cocktails so those were good. Would be a good place for drinks. They ran out of the cheesecake which is kind of ridiculous so poor planning on their part.
Exceeded my expectations! Booked this reservation last minute due to it proximity to our concert venue. Totally blown away by the quality of the food.
Nice environment, great service. Lot s of space, you do not feel any interference from other curtomers.
Kitchet at sight, prompt and ready service
Four of us had dinner at FireLake for the first time. We ordered the carrots to share - they were ok. We all shared a bread basket and also cornbread. The cornbread was delicious. We each ordered a salad - they were all really good and the smaller size was big enough (with the bread) for a meal. The salads ordered: Gathered Greens, Minnesota Salad, Asparagus Salad with Salmon. We were too full for dessert. Our waiter (dang, can't recall his name) was friendly & fun, and his suggestions were spot-on. Definitely will be back.
We have dined here many times and is always a nice experience! The seating is a little uncomfortable in booths and tables but won’t keep us from dining here. The booths across from the private room can be annoying when room is in use do to noise and lack of privacy!
We had a wonderful meal. Scallops & Salmon were cooked to perfection. Our server, Kevin was engaging, timely & sweet.
Great service and good food. Not the best value, but it's the Radisson after all.
Great food, good service! Loved the atmosphere!
