House cocktail- orange and banana flavors. Unique flavor. Wouldn't get again but enjoyed how different it was. Mostly a bright citrus flavor. Pizza- this pizza was amazing the pomegranate sauce offered a nice brightness, the mushroom sauce was a perfect creamy umami flavor and there was enough sauce on the pizza which usually I want more sauce. My only complaints were the steak was in too large/ thick of chunks and wish it was thinner, and for being wood fired the crust was pretty bland and I would've loved it to be airier. Overall I enjoyed this place much better than I thought I would and would definitely go back! Cute place and service was great. read more

This place was phenomenal. I came here with a couple of coworkers after work one night and the overall vibe of this place is great. We had some cocktails that were not only strong but delicious as well! We started with the ricotta appetizer which I wasn't originally super excited about but whoa was I wrong. It was absolutely scrumptious and came with this delicious bread to spread the ricotta on. Chefs kiss! I had the penne with vodka sauce and added shrimp and this was by far my favorite version of vodka sauce I've ever had. It was perfectly spicy and the tomato was super fresh tasting in the sauce. I would come back here again just for this dish! The server was unbelievable and really sealed the deal for me on this place. Check this spot out asap, you won't be disappointed! read more

It been a long day conference and I saw this out the window on my drive to getting a massage. So I figured I'd stop in afterwards as I was craving some Italian food and they had pappardelle on the menu. It was semi-busy but a got seated right way. Service was great. fast and friendly. I was a bit ravished so i ordered an appetizer as well at my main course. I option for the arancini and for the main course pappardelle with bolognese. The arancini came with marinara sauce and it was not overly fried and the rice and cheese was a lovely ratio, sometime the aracini can be either to ricy or too cheeses and heavily breaded, The bolognese came out nice and hot and a good amount that I took leftovers home. I also treated myself to glass of red wine and a grapefruit san pelligrino. The alcohol needed to go on a separate tab as company was paying for the dinner, but the server had no issues. She was excellent. Nice little spot and must try if you find yourself hankering for italian food in Minnesota. read more

We stopped by EaTo in Minneapolis while waiting for a rush passport nearby, hoping to grab a quick bite and pass the time. When we arrived around 2 p.m.The restaurant was very quiet, with only a couple of other diners. We were seated right away by the hostess, which was appreciated. Our server, Jessie, greeted us promptly and was attentive throughout our visit. After a quick look at the menu, we chose the lunch special.A chicken pesto sandwich on focaccia with a side of wild rice soup. Overall, the food was just okay. The sandwich didn't quite come together for me.The tomato jam didn't pair well with the pesto and chicken. The wild rice soup was also unexpected, as it had a tomato base rather than the creamier style I'm used to. Portions, especially for the sandwich, felt a bit small. That said, Jessie provided great service and he recommended coming back to try the vodka pasta with chicken. Thanks to the friendly and attentive service, we're open to giving EaTo another try in the future. read more

EaTo is a classic Italian restaurant, it has an eclectic vibe that is casual but dim lighting so also more elevated than a chain. Service was great, everyone is nice. The important part though, the food, love it. The vodka pasta has a little kick but not too crazy, I wish it was a bit creamier but overall great. The grilled chicken is grilled with rosemary which adds a great touch. The chicken parm was very good, a white sauce on the noodles and red sauce with the chicken. We get takeout from here frequently but eating here the food was obviously much better but even takeout it is still delicious! read more

We swung by for lunch on a beautiful and unseasonably warm October afternoon after spending a few hours at the Mill Museum. I ordered a cup of the chicken wild rice soup which was good and tomato forward which through me off at first. The pieces of shredded chicken, vegetables, and rice were lovely. I paired it with a side of the pasta salad that fell flat for me. The pasta was overcooked, lacked salt, and was quite dry. The vegetables tried to play a part but wound up a soggy mess. Our server was super friendly, the interior was spacious, and I loved the mustard yellow chairs inside. They were very comfortable and helped us relax and take our time with lunch. read more

I've eaten at Eato many times and their happy hour continues to be a great place for some pre-dinner. This time around I had the dry rub wings for round one, they had some slight heat, which could use a bit more. Round two was the sausage pizza, most excellent! For the cocktail I had the Eato Old Fashioned, not sure what's going on, but it used to be better. Either way, great service, very attentive to my needs. read more

My date and I had dinner last night and it was fantastic! The waitstaff were so kind and personable. The food came out very fast and it was delicious; I just ate my leftovers for breakfast! They even have the famous Sebastian Joe's ice cream for dessert, so of course we had that afterwards. The ambiance is a casual yet upscale Italian place, and a great place for a Friday night date. We'll definitely be back here soon. read more

EaTo - Pesto pasta no nuts - Pizza Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

I've had dinner here twice now, and I think I will return with some regularity. The food and service are excellent. For my entrees, I have had a pappardelle bolognese and a manicotti. That Manicotti is something I am remembering fondly many days later, I absolutely loved it. And both times, I had appetizers from their happy hour menu. One of them was a fried gnocchi, which was okay; I'm glad I tried it. The other time it was something I hadn't heard of before, and dangit I can't remember what it was called, but it was thin layers of potato with a fondue cheese gliding around in between the layers, and that is the main reason I went from four to five stars for this review, that blew me away. Prices here are are edging above twenty bucks for entrees, so it's a little more of a splurge for me compared to other Italian restaurants I like. But the quality is there, as is the service; my servers have been super thoughtful both times. They validate parking! Up to $10 if you park at the Gateway Parking Ramp on 4th Ave. read more

Unfortunately it was too smokey to sit outside but hopefully I can come back and sit there soon! read more

My girlfriend has been hyping up Eato for months, and I finally caved. We went for dinner and let me just say... I owe her an apology for doubting her. I got the chicken parmesan (her fave), and after the first bite I understood the hype. The portion was massive, which was easily enough for two people. But to be honest with you, it was so good I wasn't about to share. Service was on point, and I loved that they've got a little Italian "market"/liquor store inside. Super unique touch. We hit happy hour, and honestly half the menu had me planning for my next visit. Bottom line: if you're craving Italian in Minneapolis, definitely stop by Eato. Just don't plan on splitting the chicken parm unless you're ready to fight over it. read more

Sigh....where do I began? EaTo seems to be a pretty popular spot in the city. I mean I get it, a beautiful, bright and open space smack dab in the middle of downtown. The vibe is undeniable. But as always, my primary concern is the food....and this just doesn't stand up. Tried several items on the menu. The pizza balls, although nicely fried and pretty creative to be honest, just falls flat in the flavor department. The same came be said for the pasta. Nothing particularly stands out. The pizza is however pretty tasty. The issue is however for such a small and thin crusted pizza, the price point isn't merited. The food is all just quite forgettable, which is sad considering how much high regard I hold for Italian. Not to be too harsh but better Italian can be found at a local mom and pop for half the price. Come for the vibe and maybe some drinks, skip the food. read more

They changed the cheesecake purveyor and now they have a horrible product. It tastes like a block of sugar. It used to be so good. Shame.

Great happy hour spot in downtown! We had an espresso tonic (featured cocktail) and a mule (HH special) as well as chicken wings and potato pave. Drinks were yummy but food was the star of the show!! We debated ordering a second of both appetizers. Service was also friendly and efficient! I look forward to returning to try the full dinner menu read more

This is my top lunch recommendation, especially in the summertime. It's kind of annoying to find nearby parking so if you're in the area and are looking for a place to walk to grab lunch and you're a fan of italian food, this is the place. A huge selling point is the wine selection, you can choose any bottle from their wine store to either enjoy with your meal or take home - not something you see often in Minneapolis. Their half sandwich and salad offering is the best deal. I often recommend this for work lunches as it is in a good location to many offices downtown but it's not in the hustle and bustle of the skyway system. read more

If you are looking for some good pasta and good food, make your way to EaTo! First, I absolutely loved and appreciated that if you are sharing with a friend, they split the dish in two separate plates which is such a nice touch! Not only was the food so good and at a reasonable price, the restaurant was spacious and staff were so kind! When we went, we didn't make a reservation ahead of time and we got seated at the bar. Even the bar area was so comfortable and an amazing experience! Absolutely can't wait to be back! read more

Parking: They validate parking! Up to $10 at the parking ramp right next door! Check their website for details! Service: I recommend making a reservation, as this place was very busy! We had a reservation and were seated right away! The hostess was lovely and our server was very friendly! We ordered right away and got our meals in less than 10 mins! Very impressive given how busy it was! The Vibe: Loved it! It's kind of this funky and modern Italian joint. My boy friend and I really liked the lighting and candles on the tables! The food: Delicious! The noodles tasted fresh! The sauces were very good! I got the bolognese. It had a little kick but wasn't too crazy! My boyfriend got the Chicken Alfredo. It was tasty but not they do use dark meat, so if that's not your thing, I'd skip it. There are also mushrooms in that dish but we really liked it! Overall we would return! read more

Came in for restaurant week based on the $35 three course dinner menu. Reservation was required but it wasn't as busy at the time we came in, probably because it was a Monday. For appetizers we started with the red pepper bruschetta and spinach dip (spinach, sundried tomato, fontina cheese, served with house-made deep fried pasta chips); entrees were both chicken Parmesan (mix of red and white sauce I believe, classic mozzarella, fresh garlic, and bucatini); then finishing with dessert of cannolis and tiramisu. All of it was excellent, I particularly liked the chicken Parmesan, the flavor of the sauce and bucatini paired with the presentation, chefs kiss. Very generous portion! I would skip on the spinach dip, something about it just didn't hit as well as say a spinach artichoke dip but I'm definitely interested in coming back and trying other things on the menu! Great RW experience! read more

The pasta was very good, cooked al dente and the portion was perfect - not too much, not too little (although smaller than most American servings). You won't have leftovers, which was perfect because I was traveling. The setting was lovely with an outdoor patio, large bar area and dining area. My server was helpful and perfectly attentive. Negatives were a hostess who did not know how to work the electronic table seating chart, taking 10 minutes to seat me, a single diner, in an empty restaurant (it was 4pm). Another person came to help her and seemed irritated. The 2 dishes that I wanted to try (and which brought me to the restaurant) - the bolognese and vodka sauce - were labeled spicy and the kitchen could not modify it to make it not spicy. As it is, the chicken alfredo, which was not supposed to be spicy, was served with a lot of ground pepper, giving it an unwanted kick. As someone who does it care for spicy food, I wish there were better options and the pepper offered at the table instead of automatically putting it on the dish, especially since I asked for a non-spicy meal option. There was no bread, olives or other snacky item served while I waited for my order but it did come out fast so it did not matter. read more

We've been here a couple of times, and while it's good, but there are so many other places to try that we said we probably would opt for other restaurants in the future. Food: Pizzas and salads are fresh and tasty. Probably had better pizza elsewhere, but this isn't to say it was bad at all. Again, good, but nothing outstanding. Service: Friendly and prompt. Cute and small outdoor space out front when weather is nice. Indoor bar area that has open concept and open to the outside as well when weather cooperates. Ambience: Small, intimate, cozy, and trendy. Fun for small groups or a little date night. Would recommend making reservations, as space is small. Food is good overall. read more

Can someone tell me what this is because it's not a margarita pizza. This pizza actually had less depth of flavor than lunchables, although the cheese was somehow just as melted. The basil was haphazardly thrown on. I've been to Italy and have had classic margarita pizzas WITHOUT cheese that had 50x the flavor. Service was good, but this pizza is embarrassing. 0/10. read more

Visited Eato for their fall restaurant week. The deal was $35 for a three course meal which seemed fair given how hungry I was and how expensive their normal dishes cost. I chose to go with the chopped salad for my starter. It was delicious with lots of pieces of chopped salami, house made croutons, and lots of freshly shredded parm. It was delicious and a great way to start the meal. For the main, I chose the chicken Parmesan which came served over some house made pasta in a cheese based sauce. It was delicious, and as the tomato sauce from the chicken parm fell into the pasta, it mixed and created a wonderful sauce. For dessert, I chose cannolis which are a childhood favorite of mine. They were tasty with a nice crunchy outside and delicate filling. The service was great, we had two servers because one was training and they were extremely attentive. The vibe is pretty chic, this would be a great date spot. read more

My buddy and I searched Yelp for a good place to have happy hour before the Metallica concert on a Friday night at US Bank Stadium, where the Vikings play. EaTo is a few blocks from the stadium and was pretty empty at 4:15 when we got there, but when we left, it was pretty full. I noticed the had a nice bar that was seated outside. Our waitress was very nice and I ordered the $5 IPA, a nice craft beer. I also ordered the $8 pepperoni small pizza and my buddy and I decided to split an order of the happy hour wings. The food came out pretty fast, while I ordered another IPA. The pizza had lots of crispy curled up pepperoni, my favorite. The crust was thin, yet fluffy and fantastic and just the right amount of cheese. The wings had a rub instead of sauce and they were good size. The dipping sauce made them "Wingalicious" Great place for a Friday happy hour! read more

My first night in Minneapolis , and I was looking for a place near my hotel for dinner. I'm always up for some good Italian food, and this place was it! I normally go for pasta, but I was in the mood for a full dinner. I went for the Salmon Beurre Blanc with house roasted vegetables. Tbe salmon had a very nice flavorful texture. The vegetables were very fresh. And I liked the vibe here. I will certainly be back before I leave. read more

This was a Bonus Daughter pick as she wanted pasta so off Eato we traveled into the cities! Walking in this place was super eye pleasing and def makes sense to take all the pictures while getting your carb fix. Let's gab about the food! Focaccia w/ ricotta was both our favorite and we even tried the special bruschetta for the evening and we both went back to the focaccia as the bruschetta was salty in comparison. Both our pasta came out timely and i went with the shrimp scampi had a little more chili flake then i was anticipating but shrimp was cooked perfectly with my bonus love getting pesto. Sadly our server kinda made us feel like we were unimportant which was unique as there wasn't a large crowd for a Tuesday at 630pm. Barely came to our table and missed grabbing our drinks..had to have another sever grab our bill as they disappeared. And i am a pretty chill person but when its repetitive puts a bad vibe for wanting to come back. read more
