4 Stars - A Hidden Gem Amidst the Hustle and Bustle…read more Through the fast-paced energy of the hotel, Urbana Craeft Kitchen & Market offers a cozy escape with pretty good food and a welcoming vibe. Whether you're a traveler passing through or just looking for a solid meal, this spot delivers. The atmosphere is lively, filled with guests and business travelers, but the staff remains pleasant and efficient despite the constant flow of people. One standout dish was the Craeft Mac & Cheese; rich, creamy, and full of flavor, it's definitely worth trying. The menu offers a nice variety, and while it's not a five-star dining experience, the quality and convenience make it a solid choice. If you find yourself at the Hyatt and need a bite, Urbana Craeft Kitchen & Market is a reliable choice nestled right in the middle of the action!

You can make reservations and they have an app with a loyalty program. There often is a wait during dinner time, so if you can plan ahead I would make a reservation. Tavern Grill recently revamped their menu and they have some really great dishes! Some notable dishes: -- The Thai Chicken Lettuce Wraps appetizer is SO fresh and flavorful! You can add on cashews and avocado. The avocado slices were so thick and fresh. The wonton strips were some of the best I've had -- so light and crispy. The thai peanut sauce on the chicken was fantastic and the ginger sauce had a pretty decent kick to it. -- The Chicken Skewers entree is my go-to dish. It's such a classic and it has consistently been good every time I've ordered it. The chicken is juicy and the peppers and onions have a nice charred grilled flavor. The garlic parmesan sauce complements the dish well. -- The Chicken Wild Rice Soup is on the chunkier side, which I enjoyed! It was nice and creamy and didn't skimp out on the wild rice. The Clam Chowder served on Fridays was a little too salty. -- The Skillet Cookie is so warm and gooey! The ice cream melts right into the warm cookie. The cookie is on the doughier side and the outside is on the softer side. It's almost the size of the entire plate, so it's easily shareable between a few people. -- The Fish Fry Basket doesn't taste too greasy, and the tarter sauce complements the fish well. The fish has a clean flavor and on Fridays you can get a refill of 4 pieces of fried fish for an additional $7.50. You can add on their seasoned sour cream for an additional cost. The seasoned sour cream is thick and adds so much flavor to the waffle fries. Last time I was there I received very friendly and attentive service from Sam.

I would use caution when dining here. I checked my pending charges and it was more than I tipped…read moreand the bill. I tipped 25% and was generous. They still tried to weasel more money. I called next day and was left on hold. Then hung up on. After calling back multiple times they didn't answer call. I called from a different number and they answered. Spoke to Mike who claimed he was the GM. Mike was rude didn't want to help. I explained they charged me quite a bit more than the tip and bill. He stated he wasn't there and he couldn't explain why I was charged more. Said he wouldn't fix the bill but couldn't explain why I was charged more. I told him then he should just remove the tip and have it match the receipt. He said he wouldn't do that because I digested the food. I stated I'd pay for the food but you aren't going to tip your establishment 50% of my bill when I never authorized that. He hung up on me. Response to Tavern T the owner. As you may have read I already spoke to Mike who claimed he was the GM and he wouldn't resolve the issue. Why would it be different now? I even advised Mike I would be writing reviews and potentially filing a lawsuit. It wasn't about the money as much as principle. He laughed and said he encourages me to. Clearly he doesn't care about his patrons and is willing to lose business over small amounts of money

Man, I had to eat. I was fresh into town and had just checked into the attached hotel. I sat…read moremyself down at the bar in this restaurant (where I'd eaten plenty of times before on earlier business trips to the MSP area), and sat down. And waited. And waited. It took almost 10 minutes for a server to come over. Man, that was disappointingly long, as they weren't exactly crazy busy- and that accounted for the 2 demerits. I quickly ordered a draft lager, and the fried walleye. Having spent most of my life in SoCal, walleye is "not" easily found on the US West Coast- and I love this tender little whitefish! But I didn't want the home fries at all- essentially pre-made little potato squares more commonly eaten at breakfast- so had them sub to garlic toast (!). I waited a very reasonable period of time, and the dinner came! The walleye was great with their tartar sauce - as were the veggies- and the garlic toast really, really hit the spot. Even better? Prices were VERY reasonable for a hotel restaurant! Definitely would come again, as the food does taste good! Just needs to tighten up on the service is all- man, that's all it will take to nudge 'em up the ratings scale!

Because it was a long day, we stopped into the AiRECRAFT Grill for a quick dinner... Glad we did as it was a nice hotel restaurant - Great tap beer selection and good food, awesome service, and laid back bar/restaurant. The bartender (Matt) was super friendly, passed on some good information about the local area, and offered great service. Worth a stop if staying at the Crowne Plaza in MSP.

- CRAVE at Mall of America…read more I stopped at CRAVE late on a Friday night while visiting the Mall of America. I was dining alone and was seated immediately at a high-top table in the bar area. The bartender greeted me right away, brought over a menu and water, and explained that the three bartenders working that evening would be helping guests as a team. One bartender handled most of my service, while food runners and other staff assisted as needed. The system worked very well, and I never felt overlooked. I started with the Smoky Peach Old Fashioned, which was very good. CRAVE offers sushi along with a wide variety of other entrées, so I decided to order the spider roll and the chicken bao buns. Both were excellent. The spider roll was fresh and flavorful, and the bao buns were another standout that I would gladly order again. One small detail really impressed me. I had been walking around and staying busy throughout the day, so I went to the restroom to wash my hands and freshen up. When I returned to my table, the bartender had a hot towel waiting for me. I was not expecting that level of hospitality from a restaurant inside a shopping mall, and it made the experience feel much more polished. My water and drinks were consistently refilled, the food arrived quickly, and the service was attentive without being intrusive. Overall, I had an excellent experience. The food, drinks, and service were all strong, and the thoughtful attention to detail made the visit especially memorable. I would absolutely return.

The portions are great size and the presentation on everything I ordered was spot on but it lacked so much flavor on each dish. The loaded tots were nothing special just a bunch of sour cream and cheese, the wings were great in size but even after getting them in my flavor of choice they still wasn't enjoyable. The wings taste as if they been frozen for a while once you take your initial bite and you get past the sauce flavor, the meat didn't taste good at all. The chicken sandwich needs more love towards the seasoning of the batter. But the happy specials seem to be the reason people attend this establishment so that's a plus. I would give them another try once more love in put into preparing the dishes with flavor! Happy Yelping
