    Perfect place for my mom’s birthday brunch. Service was great - people were hospitable and friendly and the vibes were great as always! And then food was of course freaking delish.

    Good food but too noisy for a get together as we had to talk louder than usual. Not a Place to meet up for chatting. Food and service was excellent. Not too happy with the tip System either. We were charged for some tax and we were made To tip on top of that

    I love the food at Lynhall and have been many times, but this experience was not up to their standards. They were completely out of pastries, which is half the reason we go for brunch. Also, our service was incredibly slow. The waitress was super nice, and perhaps staffing is an issue, but we were constantly out of water/drinks and were never asked how our food was after it was served. The next time we saw her, she brought the bill. Just not what you expect from a relatively pricey brunch experience.

    Was told they ran out of pasties at 12 pm on Mothers Day because they gave too many to take out orders. Had to ask 3 times for a cup of coffee. Food was not good either.

    Was really looking forward to trying The Lynhall, but overall I was disappointed. The restaurant is cute and open inside. It took at least 20 minutes for someone to greet us at the table and bring water. Food took a very long time to get to us and was fine, but nothing special. Really wanted to like it more!!!

    Service was extremely slow. It took over 20 minutes for our whole table to get coffee and much longer for food. Coffee and water were not refilled. Most of the items were sold out on the pastries menu which wasn’t updated. The server didn’t know which ones were actually sold out or not. The volume in the restaurant was very loud. The 4% credit card charge + 5% “employee wellness” fund seemed over the top when service is so lackluster.

Everything we ordered was delicious and not over priced. The staff were friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. All in all a great experience.

    At the intersection of delicate French cooking and culinary boldness, Lynhall strikes me as the ideal breakfast and brunch. Would you have a breakfast and lunch date, consider their venue as an ideal location for romance, conversation and culinary partnership

    So good to be back at the lynhall Minneapolis. Always appreciate the welcoming, stay-awhile vibe. The food was as delicious as it ever has been, and the cocktails too. So happy to see the pastry case filled almost like things were in the very beginning (if only the amazing platters of salads would come back too). We were really missing the warmth of the fire on a brisk cold Saturday morning. We were told they were out of wood :( That amazing fireplace is one of the many things that make Lynhall so special; I hope to see it lit next time.

    I went to the LynnLake location yesterday with a party of six for my boss's birthday. She is a tea lover and we wanted to treat her to high tea, which was on their menu. To say that I was disappointed and embarrassed is an understatement. The menu listed for "High Tea" was - "Assortment of local cheeses, charcuterie, accouterment, desserts, and crackers" The wait person said that it would feed 2-3 guests. I prepared to receive a delicious and decadent buffet of treats to share with my boss. The food presented was not as the menu described: 1. Charcuterie always has some sort of salami or other meat - nothing. 2. No crackers at all, just two 1/2 pieces of dry toast. 3. There was mostly cheese - which was tasty, but most of it was moldy. (Yes, I know that you can eat moldy cheese.) 4. The "accouterment" consisted of 5 or 6 olives and 5 or 6 walnut pieces strewn randomly about the plates and some unidentified jam and mustard blobs. 5. The dessert was three bite-sized mini-pastries. This was all served on a three-tier dinner-plate-sized server, which made it look even more sparse than it was for $30.00. For a last added touch, we had maybe 15 blueberries scattered on the dishes. Lynhall LynnLake - you're batting out of your league. Take this off your menu. Oh, yeah - the actual tea beverages were extra.
