A word from UNION Rooftop

Experience the Union of talent, creativity, art, food, and design.

Kaskaid Hospitality has been credited with bringing dining in the Twin Cities to new heights, and UNION Rooftop is the crown jewel in its latest unveiling of unique hospitality concepts. Painstaking attention was paid to every detail, from restoring the building’s original architectural treasures to installing the one-of-a-kind retractable rooftop. UNION has engaged a talented culinary team that holds themselves to the highest standards, ensuring every dish is special, surprising, and cohesive. We have created a menu that can be experienced in just the right proportions, from an elegant snack before the theater, to a celebratory private dining tasting menu featuring ingredients that change daily.

So loud (DJ was so loud-we couldn't hear each other) & food was on the greasy side. But the Service people were great!

The food was just OK. I ordered firecracker shrimp. It was not spicy and the flavor was bland. My mate ordered the steak and even though it was expensive, it was also lacking in flavor. The potstickers were great, though. Given the mediocre taste of the food, the cost was high.

Busy place. Definitely make a reservation. Lively ambience and nice views on the mostly covered patio. Had the crispy pork dumplings and tried a couple of their specialty cocktails. All quite good, although it is a bit pricey.

Great drink menu and food menu with a fun variety of interesting dishes. It was a very busy Friday night so I cut them some slack but we had 4 people and were given 3 of our dinners with a long delay in the last dinner. Had we waited to start eating for our 4th plate, everyone would have had cold food and instead we were half done with our meals before the last came with no apology or explanation. It was also hard to get a server to come and take our orders and very difficult to get second drinks ordered.

Amazing time at the Solar Brunch on Memorial Day Weekend. The DJ they had was amazing and kept our table dancing the whole time. Our waitress Taylor was great and kept our glasses full for the bottomless mimosas.

We were seated inside the glass dome and it was hot and stuffy. We asked right away to move to one of many open tables in the open air section. We were not accommodated and the staff was mostly rude. We were basically told we needed to stay at the table we had because a server was already assigned. We left and went to Crave which was a great experience. Would not recommend Union Rooftop at all. Bad experience for us.

The food and service was great. We were there with a party of 8 people and were kicked out after 90 minutes. We spent $750 and were actively buying drinks and I had to tell my clients and team that we had to leave. This was not a good experience and I won't be taking clients/teams to this restaurant again.

I had really high expectations for this place and unfortunately was very let down. It was very dirty inside and the bathrooms were very poorly kept. When we sat down, the waitress barely knew the menu and messed up our order. For the price of the food, it definitely isn't worth it. Maybe we just had a bad day here but I would recommend saving your time/money.

Very un-impressed with the 4.25% service charge for employee benefits. Just raise the prices to reflect that instead of giving false prices on the menu. Take care of your employees properly rather than trying to get a public at a boy.

The DJ was playing music, which was good song choices.However the music was way too loud to even hold any semblance of a conversation with my husband. We ended up basically eating our brunch in silence and then talked in the car on the way home. Not a relaxing Sunday brunch experience..felt more like a night club vibe.

The rooftop deck is small and little shade. Make sure you have sunglasses and a hat. The food was not prepared according to the menu. Walk ups were not accepted but a reservation could be made for the time which you are standing there. Scenery is the roof of other buildings.

Originally seated inside cause of possible weather, which created a louder than ideal dining experience. Was able to Move to outside spots on the rooftop. Our server, Molly was phenomenal with great recommendations and energy throughout the whole dining experience. All drinks and food were amazing.
