You don't have to worry about parking here because they have valet. The lighting is a little on the dim side, but you will appreciate it, especially if you have been sitting under fluorescent light. The old fashioned that I ordered met my expectations. The steak was also a hit. My friends also enjoyed their steak. read more

We did a family birthday dinner. Its old timey supper club vibe was spot on. Booths with high walls and dim lighting along with a cool Minneapolis mural immediately got you into supper club mode Jorge was our server and he was excellent. He told us about the restaurant and brought out steaks for explanation. He was also spot on with regard to sides and his recommendations. I went with the prime rib, given Jorge's description and I'm so glad I did. It was delicious. Cooked perfectly, it was the most tender medium rare prime rib I've ever had. So tasty. For apps, we started with shrimp cocktail and crab cakes. The apps are fairly small but they were delicious. Given the size of the steaks and sides, small apps were perfect to whet your appetite. For sides we had garlic mashed potatoes, brussel sprouts, and green beans. More than we needed for 4 people (we didn't heed Jorge's recommendation because we wanted to try two veggies). We loved the food, service, and experience. So good. read more

AMAZING staff! Loved the meat cart to present their fancy steak cuts! Tried escargot for the first time and would highly recommend! It was surprisingly delicious and NOT served in a shell, thankfully! Great spot, especially for birthdays. They decorated the table with confetti and personalized our experience. read more

Best overall service! Celebrated my boyfriend's birthday here and it was our first time visiting. He's very chill but by the end of the night he was raving about the service and food! The restaurant was dimly lit and perfect for a couples dinner. The table was decorated and we had a birthday menu, loved the details! We started with the calamari which was crisp and perfectly salty! We were given a presentation of all of their different cuts of meat- very impressive! We both got the filet mignon and it was made to perfection and melted like butter. This place is always on the top of my list for recommendations! read more

First off best filet in Minneapolis. Doesn't compare to any other steak house. They always prepare a special table for our birthdays and anniversaries. This visit was special as it was our anniversary and they had a deal if you're an 801 Prime club member you could get 2oz caviar or 2 drinks if you spend $100. We made the trip to the city for the caviar experience and was told they ran out 2 days before the deal was done. The dinner was still special but a major letdown as we had made the 40minute trip from the burbs for the caviar. Would have loved to give a 5 stars but the expected experience wasn't as advertised. read more

We were a party of six strangers brought together by an app for the purpose of getting out, meeting people, and having dinner. This venue is gorgeous; dark, polished wood, vintage lighting, impeccable Green Coat service. It's the 1920s with flair. Our server, Alex, gave us a little history of 801 and explained it was modeled after Delmonico's in NYC. He was so knowledgeable and answered our questions easily. There is a framed painting of a steer from whose progeny all beef is sourced. Typically the server will bring out a trolley of the various cuts of meat and describes each, but one diner in our group was on a fast and asked that they not. (I gently asked why she came during a fast and she explained she joined us for the company and conversation.) We had plenty of both! Accustomed to the USDA Choice steaks typically available, I was bowled over by the flavor and tenderness of Prime cuts, especially Wagyu! I ordered the Surf & Turf, two filets topped with a huge prawn and a perfect scallop. The Madeira sauce was lick-your-plate delicious and the mid-rare filet melted in my mouth. I confess, I can't stop thinking about that steak. The warm sourdough bread is on point. The diner to my left ordered a side of grilled asparagus and it was enormous -- a dinner plate piled with huge spears that he ended up sharing with the table. There is an impressive wine list as well as specialty cocktails and fabulously crafted desserts. I would love to return and found the entire experience memorable. read more

This place is pretty good I came and bought the porterhouse for 2 with garlic fries and French onion soup. For 280$ I'll tell you it kinda wasn't worth it would've looked at a different steak joint. Everything about this place is good but the food is what tastes super mid. I bought the porterhouse for 2, the ribeye side tasted burnt which was a super big let down and the garlic truffles fries just tasted hella weird. but the French soup was good! read more

A wonderful evening. We had the petite filet, Caesar salad, and hash browns with bleu cheese instead of cheddar, but the star was the Surf & Turf. Two small filets, shrimp and scallop covered in a luscious Maderia sauce. Mind-blowing. Our server, Clancy, was fantastic, guiding us through the menu with ease, despite our seating at 9:30 pm (801 closes at 10 pm). He even delivered our Crème Brûlée to the bar at our request so that we could catch what we thought would be the end of the Tigers v Mariners Game 5. Jason, our bartender, insisted we take our time and enjoy the game while sipping a lovely Blanton's. Just a perfect experience. Kudos to 801! read more

Stellar service and stellar steak (as it should be for the price). They can do "smaller" portions on many items but the portion might still be very large. They can also do quite a bit as GF. Two of us split a wagyu ribeye, truffle fries, and string beans and we still had food left over. The steak was cooked perfectly and was super tender with lots of flavor. Fries were crispy and string beans had some delicious bacon on them. They even accommodated me with an off-menu ice cream that sounded great. The one thing I probably wouldn't get next time would be a mojito since there were no mint leaves or lime, just like a mix, but that was such a minor thing. The rest of the meal really shined. It's a nice quiet upscale spot that's perfect for a business dinner too, super easy to hear your conversation. read more

Had a lovely dinner with a friend here. Started with a drink at the bar. Moved into the dining room where we ordered the surf and turf and a 1lb lobster tail. Our sides were the spinach and garlic mashed potatoes. It was absolutely delicious. We had some of the cocktails too, pours were generous. Our waiter was charming and helpful. Thank you 801 Chophouse! read more

Food: 5/5. We come here 2 or 3 times a year and the food is consistently amazing. We got a bone in filet with bone marrow butter, fellers ranch NY strip with truffle butter, loaded hash browns (these do come with onions if that matters to you), mushroom bake, mac and cheese, and asparagus. The drinks are also great! We had a Manhattan, old fashioned, and pomegranate martini. Service 5/5. The wait staff are very attentive and ensure you consistently have everything you need. Ambiance: 5/5. We went on a Friday at 5 and it was a slower day. I love all of the animal wall art and the overall aesthetic. The booths are very comfortable and feel almost private with higher walls. If you're looking for a high class steak restaurant, this is it! We have tried many in town and have only had consistently great service and food quality at 801. They have a valet if you're worried about parking. Otherwise there is covered parking in the same building they are in. read more

801 Chophouse has perfected customer service, fine dining, and quality! While in Minnesota we had to knock off at least one fine dining experience and we chose 801 Chophouse. Located conveniently in Downtown Minneapolis, this was a quick short walk, high heels no problem, it's a straight flat walk. I made our reservation and told them it was a special occasion. It's Scorpio season! Life is short so we definitely have to live and appreciate birthdays for the ones we love! We got to the restaurant early and they accommodated an early seating! Upon being seated, I see birthday confetti on the table. Nice touch. Ambiance is elegant yet casual. Patrons were both dressed up and down. Let's get into it! Oysters Rockefeller - Perfect! Crab cake - Perfect! Ribeye - Delicious! Brussel sprouts- PERFECTION! Those Vidalia onions were a perfect combo! Drinks were made to perfection. It's not often my babe gives a drink kudos but he did! Over all, you pay for what you get! Top Dollar, Top Quality! Highly recommend. read more

While in Minneapolis to see #72 beat up on the Gophers, the GF chose 801 Chophouse for our fine dining experience. Side-note, she ate at the brand new location in Tyson's without me, so she felt bad..LOL! I have a birthday coming up fast so she informed them of that and they dressed up our table with bday wishes, which was a nice touch! Our server, I wish I could remember his name, was extremely personable and loved his job. He literally made me change my order from lamb chops to a ribeye just by his description once he ran down each cut of steak they offered. Again, my girl just visited 801 in Tysons, so she was dying for me to try their crab cake and Oysters Rockefeller for our starters. She was RIGHT, they were both AMAZING! Now that we were done with the pre-game, I was anxiously waiting for that aforementioned Ribeye! It came out precut and at the perfect temperature. That thing melted in our mouths. Again, AMAZING! My Old Fashioned was the best drink I've had in a while and guess what, our outstanding server also doubled as the bartender, so he's a hell of a multi-tasker..LOL! 801 Chophouse is UPSCALE, and I've been to a lot of fancy spots in my day, just don't get sticker shocked when you come. Don't make me say I told you so..LOL! Thank you 801 for a great dinner, I was a little shocked I didn't get a complimentary bday dessert, I'll just chalked it up to he forgot!! :)) read more

I had never been heard of this chophouse before, but my brother had mentioned it so we went out on a double date. This is located downtown Minneapolis so plan to either find street parking or park in a ramp. Once you get inside it's a pretty and quiet with ample seating and good space. Our server Santiago was very attentive and friendly. As far as the food goes, all of us got something different. I had the surf and turf and all of it was seasoned really well and tasty. We had 4 sides and enjoyed all of them. The onion rings were huge. All Of these were shareable and we definitely had left overs. My boyfriend had the feller ranch NY stop steak and that was cooked to perfection and also tasty. Overall know that going in the prices are high, but the food quality is definitely worth the price. Know when you are full at the end, if you want dessert you're best off sharing with the size! read more

This is your standard/stereotypical steakhouse. Dark wood/cozy atmosphere. Thoughtful service. They had a nice selection of wine and cocktails too. The food was all well prepared and exactly what you'd expect at a steakhouse. I had the 8 oz filet which was the smallest option and was $75. The asparagus was huge and cooked well. There just wasn't any pop of flavor. Nothing bad both nothing that knocked my socks off. If you like steakhouses and don't mind the high price point, you'll be satisfied going here. My coworker loved it. read more

Second time visiting 801 for birthdays. 801 is such a treat and they are so consistent. The staff is so knowledgeable about the food that 801 offers. The restaurant is so spacious that you never feel like you're cramped in like sardines and can hear the next table's conversations! Highly recommend seasonal menu! Came in wanting to order a dry aged porter house, but Santiago our server showed us a ribeye that was both dry aged and wet aged for I think 120 days(? I forgot lol). This was the most flavorful steak I have ever had! Highly recommend this one if it is still available! I had the maitake foie gras topping for my steak, it made it even more flavorful! But the steak definitely can hold its own. 801 is pricy, but they are sooo generous with their portions, and the quality is incredibly consistent. This is definitely worth a visit! read more

Considering the price, we had a pretty basic experience. We had some cocktails to start. They were small, particularly the negroni and weak. For starters, we had the mussels, burrata salad and the down home shrimp. Mussels were pretty good. Salad and shrimp weren't worth the $21 and $25 respectively. The shrimp are served with mashed which makes it a very heavy starter. We then had the surf and turf, mashed potatoes and blue cheese potatoes. Steak was tender and cooked as requested. Sauce was very good. Mashed potatoes were good as well, very smooth. Blue cheese potatoes were not good. They were undercooked. We did say something and they took them off. We had chocolate cake for dessert. It was a nice gesture as they offered a choice of any dessert for birthday but the cake was sooooo sweet. Not very good. Service was average. Considering we payed over $430 for our meal, the whole experience didn't feel refined or elevated for the price. It was also not busy at all, so the atmosphere was none. They do have valet for $15. read more

Excellent steak house in downtown Minneapolis, with multiple options for steak lovers. The lamb chops are a good alternative for the steak. The seafood options are well worth a try.

There is parking in the office building that the restaurant is located in. Will come back again. read more

Probably one of the worst steakhouses you could visit. Well done steak - was only half well done Cobbler - was pre made with canned peaches and used oatmeal, not a cobbler. Mac and Cheese - decent. But not above average Scalloped potatoes- no cheese taste Crab legs - one crab leg for $100...and they were lukewarm with cold butter Service- some didn't know English, others talked too much. A one star experience for this pretender steakhouse. read more

Made dinner reservations before heading to a show at The Dakota. The vibe is typical steakhouse, but I ain't mad at it. Our server was attentive and knowledgeable. For starters we ordered the crab cake and it was delicious. Large chunks of crab meat. We also ordered the onion rings. I wasn't so fond of these. First off you get A LOT, which isn't bad, however they had a sort of state fair fried flavor if that makes any sense. Not bad, but not what I wanted at an expensive steak place. I do appreciate that they were beer battered and not breaded. For dinner I ordered the 1 lb lobster tail and a side of garlic mashed potatoes, which made me wish I had multiple stomachs because the potatoes were AMAZING, but I couldn't polish them off. Of course the lobster tail was delicious as well. It's very pricey so this isn't a weekly or monthly place I would go to for dinner, however definitely a special occasion spot. read more

This isn't it. From the moment we got there the only thing the place had going was the hostess. Our dinner reservation wasn't ready for a good 20 minutes after we showed up. The first 10 of that 20 minutes was being seated at the bar to wait for our table, while the bartender overlooked us. 10 minutes in. Great drink. Old Fashioned. 20 minutes goes by, Get our table. Order second drink. Same drink, served in a different glass, different ice (first was 1 cube of whisky ice, second drink was tail ice. Both tasted different, so no consistency, (which would be fine if this was your local dive bar, but it's not) Steak showcase comes around, half the menu's dry aged steaks are missing.... Waitress has a great excuse that their chef wants perfection, so items were pulled... excuse none the less... Order food... Food comes.... Filet mignon with truffle butter comes for dinner. Steak is undercooked to order, cold and the truffle butter isn't even remotely melting on to top of the steak that was supposedly cooked in a special high temp broiler... Third Old Fashioned... even worse... less ice, no mettle... this time it's just like my local dive bar... I'm not here to do anything but hope the business reads this.... Wildly underwhelming and I hope there's an opportunity to raise your standards to match your pricing... Again... this at this price.... This isn't it. read more

Personally I love 801 Chop, our first experience was in the summer but we have been back since. There's just something about the service and the environment that makes us go back. There are a lot of other steakhouses down town and in the surrounding areas but 801 is a step above. First they start with a warm fresh baked sourdough for the table, if I could eat just that I would. We've tried a couple of their signature drinks and every single option has been great. I don't think you can go wrong with anything from the bar. For starts we either go with the tartare($25), pork belly ($24) or even the meatballs (22). The Caesar salad ($16) is also a staple of ours and can be shared between two people as a starter. Your waiter will bring out a cart to show different cuts and if you don't know a lot about meat they'll give a quick 101 on what to pick depending on what you like. We've tried a couple of different steaks and each one was good, the petite filet mignon $75 has been a fan favorite but for $10 more I recommend the 12oz. Some people are good with just steak but I find adding a butter or additional topping just kicks it up a notch. If you're unsure of what to get go with the black truffle butter ($13). As a limited meat eater the sides are my favorite part. Most of the time I will order the one pound baked potato (with the works) as a main ($11). It comes with pork belly and you cannot go wrong. The scalloped potatoes ($18), Garlic Mashed Potatoes ($16), Grilled Asparagus ($19), French Green Beans ($16) are all worth trying. I think my favorite side (besides the baked potato) is the onion rings ($15). We've never made it to dessert but I'd like to try it next time if we can limit the amount of sides we order. I recommend making a reservation. 50% of the time I doubt we would have waited if we walked in, but I'm not willing to take that chance. I highly recommend checking it out. read more

WOW! Patrick gave service above and beyond! What a classy new chophouse in downtown Minneapolis. A featured wall mural highlighted most of the iconic Minneapolis treasures, a feast for the eyes.

Every meal was so, so good - a true epicurean experience for a special birthday. Our menus even said Happy Birthday!

Could not eat but gave up with selecting something else. Scallop potatoes also very salty....chef must love salt!!!!!! Husband's bone in prime rib was "excellent" Blackout chocolate cake good.

We came here for a friend's birthday and we made sure to put that on the reservation and they had the table decorated to welcome us for the night. this was such a fun touch and great start to our meal! Really appreciated the staff here. This is a very traditional American Steakhouse. The sides were amazing - I appreciate the smaller portions compared to manny's but the sides are not that much cheaper than Manny so I would say you get less for your money here, but they were delicious and definitely worth a try!

We were in town for the Sunday night football game and decided to have dinner the night before. Our server was extremely knowledgeable about the concept, the food, choices, and beverage. He gave great explanations of the different cuts of meat and guided us through best options on the menu. I started with a featured salad of mixed greens with red onions and candied pecans and apple slices. The salad was a little overdressed, but still very good. I chose the scallops for my entrée. They were prepared perfectly and very tender. A high level of salt really brought out, the sea flavor. The other people in the party had the ribeye and the New York strip. Both were prepared to the perfect temperature and had a crunchy exterior with a tender juicy interior. We had creamed corn, broccolini, and lobster mac & cheese as our sides. All of them delicious. We completed our meal with a cheesecake and chocolate cake. Both outstanding. This is a well oiled machine, providing exemplary service and impeccable food quality. read more

Came here to celebrate a milestone birthday dinner and it was more than perfect! I arrived a lot earlier than my reservation but was still able to get seated right away. The table was decorated for this special occasion. Ordered the ribeye and the prime rib and I would definitely go back for more prime rib! It was delicious and the best I've had compared to other places. For dessert we go to choose from the dessert list as a complimentary birthday dessert. The sugar coat on top for the crème brûlée was too thick in my opinion, but it was still very good. Our server was great and funny but it took 30+ mins after seating to order. He did push out a cart full of their cuts so you can see. read more

Went to have an early dinner on a Saturday night. We made reservations but when we arrived the place was pretty empty, also the place is huge. We ordered as follows: Drinks: Dirty martini with blue cheese olives and a blood orange Big Wood beer - Both delicious; App: Grand Shellfish Platter (lobster, shrimp and oysters were good, the king crab was flavorless), it could've been better for the price; Steak: Delmonico - Flavorful and cooked like we asked; Sides: Chopped salad (amazing!) and cream spinach (not great, we tasted fennel it it, not a fan of the cheese crust); Dessert: Grand Marnier soufflé - Our waiter told us it would take 25 minutes to be prepared and that was fine with us, we were not in a hurry. It was OK, it came with chocolate sauce and crème anglaise, which were good, and berry compote, which was OK. The soufflé itself was not very flavorful. We were in Minneapolis for the weekend and out hotel was a block away. I recommend this place if you are in the area, but would not go out of my way to dine here. read more

Formal upscale dining. We had reservations at 4pm, when they open. FYI, valet isn't available until 430pm. There is parking on the street, on the IDS/Fedex side. Ambiance: Swanky and upscale Service: Superb. The steak presentation was amazing. lol They decorated our table for the celebration with confetti. Sweet gesture. Food: We had a lot, honestly, I had a lot! LOL I had beef tartar, which was so good. Rockfeller oysters, which I normally do not LOVE (i prefer chargrilled), but these were really good and even better than Oceanaire - in my opinion. I had the 801 Primerib - medium, with brussel sprouts and for desert I had the toffee cake. I did not love the toffee cake, but it was decent. Drinks: STRONG. ;-) read more

Wonderful new addition to the MSP steakhouse scene. This is up there with my personal favorites in the TC Metro (Murray's, Capital Grille, JD Hoyt's, P.S. Steak, and formerly Burch). The service was the only downside with some minor hiccups at checkout - partially which is I have no idea if I was correctly charged for my experience as of yet (still TBD as the initial charge was more than our bill and receipt). As for the food, the small shellfish platter was a decent starter (albeit a little overpriced for the contents). The Prime Rib was phenomenal, one of the most tender and flavorful versions of the cut we've had anywhere. The Delmonico was also fantastic. And finally, the A-5 Wagyu was exceptional and not as astronomically priced as I've seen elsewhere. If you love steaks, you should try it! There is still nothing quite like it. 801 is a great newcomer to the scene and well worth it for your steakhouse cravings! read more

WAY over priced. Many other better steak choices in town. The seafood tower is so mediocre.

Went here for the first time for my birthday dinner. Located downtown so parking wise you have valet, street metered parking or nearby ramps. We came here on a Saturday night and it was a little empty around dinner time. The atmosphere was nice and quiet perfect for a romantic dinner. You know it's a good steakhouse when they wheel a cart with different type of steaks for show-n-tell. Started off the night with the typical house bread Here for salads and sides you can have the option of ordering 1/2 or full orders. I recommend to get the full orders because you only save like $3-$5 dollars for the 1/2 order and it's half size so not really worth it. Got 1/2 size house salad which was good and yummy except it was a little small. This is why I recommend to get the full order. Got the down home jumbo shrimp which was highly recommended by our waitress given that it is her favorite dish there. It is quite tasty. Jumbo Shrimp in a mashed potato with special sauce. Every bite was juicy. We got the full size broccolini Decided to get the dry aged Delmonico. Never had this kind of steak before so we had to get it. Since it was 24 oz, we decided to share the steak. Surely, we had to pack home some leftovers. We got it cooked medium and it was perfect pink for us. It was juicy and tender. Since it was my birthday, they did give me a complimentary Creme brûlée which was delicious! The service and great and we really enjoyed our time there. Will definitely come back to try other items on the menu! read more
