Uptown Minneapolis Restaurants

As arguably Minneapolis' trendiest neighborhood, Uptown features an eclectic mix of food, nightlife, shops and nature. This district has bounced back from a 1928 fire to become a thriving hotspot. These days, it's easy to explore the wide range of multicultural and homestyle American restaurants by foot. You can try the city's iconic Juicy Lucy, a cheese-stuffed burger, at several Uptown spots. This scrumptious burger originated in South Minneapolis in the 1950s. If you're visiting in the summer, hit one of Uptown's rooftop patios. When the sunshine arrives, Minneapolis natives like to consume cold drinks and fried fish while enjoying elevated views of the city. Of course, a trip to Uptown wouldn't be complete without some good old-fashioned diner food. Scarf down some blueberry pancakes or deli sandwiches until the wee hours in a homey yet hip atmosphere.
