Wanted to grab a holiday drink and watch some planes in a snowy Saturday, and we got one of the two. This was our first time here and we heard about it because of the makers market they had. They only had a couple vendors in the lobby, but it was still nice to drop in and have an excuse to grab a holiday drink. Pro tip - do not sit at the bar if you're hoping to watch planes. There's no good window to look out of when sitting at the bar. I wish I asked for a table since it wasn't too busy!! I had the hot cocoa drink and it was delicious! Hit the spot and definitely made me warm and fuzzy. Our bartender was so great and we had the best time. I'm definitely coming back and sitting at a table facing a window. read more

Holman's Table - Bars Near Me - Saint Paul, Minnesota

We make it here every few months for lunch, over the past few years, and I think it has gone from good to meh, a trend that I don't see reversing. Previously, the food saved it from itself. The dining area is so noisy, and the tables are jammed into each other - there is no way to get in or out without bumping into another chair - but for good food at acceptable prices, it was worth it. After the last visit, the food isn't worth it for me. On this most recent stop, several of the regular items i had gotten had been discontinued, and I could find nothing else that was appealing, so I went with their omelette special. It was disgusting. I ate the individual elements by themselves, so that it wouldn't be a total waste, but much of the bacon just tasted bad - not undercooked - just bad, like they didn't know how to make bacon. The decline in food quality seems to mimic the overall decline in this establishent. I can't foresee ever going back. PS The Service was good. read more

Old Fashioned $13. Had by a couple of people and they liked I had Opaque Tannat $18 very nice wine with chicken Airline chicken $30. Nice chicken breast on a bed of rice .and tomato curry sauce. My chicken was a tad dry but the overall flavor was well thought out. I would order again. Wife had grilled venison $48 and liked it We all shared crispy Brussels sprouts $16 Server was Jeffrey H and he did a good job even though we were seated in the entrance e hall and so not in his normal path. read more

We went out to dinner with some girl friends 1) ambiance - very nice, it was quite and beautiful inside 2) service - out waitress was lovely but it was slow- it took 2.5 hours to eat dinner 3) Hanger steak - the potato's had no flavor and the steak was so so at best 4) ROASTED KING OYSTER MUSHROOM - The mushrooms were overly salted, the garbanzo beans were under cooker where as the other beans were over cooked - Would I go back - for a drink yes, for food no read more

The ambiance here is special! The decor is attractive and the tables, or outdoor patio, abut the St Paul Regional airport so you can see small planes or helicopters land/takeoff. I noticed there are helicopter tours that takeoff here, which is cool, too. The food was really tasty, and the prices are on par with similar restaurants. I live in the area and can't believe I've never been here before! The server was pleasant; my only criticism was that it took a long time for drinks and food to arrive. We weren't in a hurry, though, so it wasn't that big of a deal. We tried the Bloody Mary charcuterie board, which was memorable and I'd highly recommend. The fried cheesecake bite on that board was *delicious* and melted in your mouth. The BLT was spot on, and I got it with a side of hash browns. I'll come back here soon; this was a great meal. read more

Wheels up! Dined here for an early dinner at 4 pm on a Monday with some colleagues. The online reservation system via Open Table was seamless. Needless to say, we were the first group in and killed some time beforehand in the main lobby space with some cocktails. Upon entry, there are many traveling relics to peek at via decor from old luggages to a map on the ground to airplane adventure advertisements. Additionally, there is an observation overlook where you can watch the airplanes land and takeoff. The entire space made me feel like I was about to hop on a plane and do some traveling. Holman's Table offers a unique experience as you can watch airplanes land and takeoff as mentioned above and can even buy tickets for helicopter rides which take place on Saturday's. For my first experience, we did a dine in only indoors. There is a small exterior patio outside for the warmer months which I hope to take advantage of next summer. The interior is very clean, the women's bathroom is spacious and the parking is free onsite. Our hostess was an absolute riot. She was cracking jokes left and right with us. When we eventually got seated in our dining area, we ordered the brussel sprout appetizer (very yum with a nice glaze, bacon bits and blue cheese crumbles) and purchased another round of cocktails. For the main entrees we had 2 of the 300 dollar burgers, 1 Caesar salad (came with a giant over easy egg) and 1 order of the bucatini pasta with added chicken. I am rating this a 4 because I feel like the bucatini pasta description didn't match the end product and definitely had a spice kick to it which was not outlined on the menu. Our server even told us that the Radiatori pasta had a spice kick, yet made no mention of it when we were going over the menu. In addition, our server was late to give us the bill as she was also playing bartender which showed us the restaurant was understaffed. Regardless, I'll be back. Why? I'm a Saint Paul fanatic, I love intimate hidden gems and I want to try the helicopter ride with my husband who previously served in the Air Force. I see a lot of potential with the space and the idea that is brewing is unique. The dinner menu was lovely so I'd like to try more items. Thank you!! read more

We had a lovely brunch at Holman's Table. They're definitely generous with the meats. Plenty of crab in the crab-cake Benedict with perfectly runny eggs. The meat lovers omelette was loaded and the Caesar salad had a big piece of ham and egg on top. Sweet tooth? Definitely get the mini donuts to share. We also got the mimosa board ... loved the fresh fruit and deep fried cheese cake that came with the drinks. Service was impeccable. A pretty little spot not too far from downtown St Paul with bright windows to see the little planes take off. read more

I went there for the first time with my friend to celebrate my birthday, and I really enjoyed it. The atmosphere was warm and inviting. The service was quick and attentive, which made everything feel smooth. The food was absolutely delicious! The only thing I noticed was that they had a time limit on how long you could stay at a table, probably because the space is limited and they want to accommodate everyone. read more

Experienced this restaurant for the first time recently. The ambience is lovely and the staff are all excellent. My friend wanted an NA beer and they were out so the bartender made her a special NA cocktail. He put in the extra effort and it was appreciated. Hubby and I shared the mushroom toast appetizer, which was delightful. Our friends had the crab cake app and said it was delicious. Our entrées included lobster risotto, which was good but a little too salty. The rib eye pork chop, which was a bit dry. The orecchiette with sausage and the tenderloin. All the meals were good, but not amazing unfortunately. And it would've been nice to have a bread basket. The cheesecake and French silk cake desserts were excellent. I would recommend this restaurant and plan on going back to try another entrée. Saying it again... The service was excellent all the way around. read more

I came here for the first time on my birthday this past year. I had no clue about this hidden gem because it is also located at the small airport. There's even a place next door to do a helicopter ride! We went for brunch on a Saturday and it was pretty busy. I started with the brûlée grapefruit with whipped cream berries. The combination of tart of sweet was perfect! I also tried the French toast- which is a graham cracker crust made into the cinnamon brioche toast. I loved the twist on this. They were so nice for my birthday and very accommodating! I want to go back for dinner and the helicopter ride. Fun fact- the terminal that the restaurant is located in was designed by Minnesota's first black licensed architect! read more

We are so disappointed. This was one of our favorite places to go for cocktails and dinner - but now, with the new menu and apparently a new chef, the choices were not great, and the food was.....well, again, disappointing. The Caesar salad - the only salad on the menu - was slathered in way too much dressing that had WAY too much anchovy in it - and then there were like 9 anchovies layered across the romaine lettuce. The "gumbo" wasn't gumbo at all, but was basically rice with a couple of chicken pieces on top and a bit of andouille sausage in it. BUT - the burger was good - a hold over from the past menu. I've just never had a bad meal here before, so we were really surprised. Wait staff, as always, were great! read more

We loved our experience at this place. It's kind of a hidden gem and the food is amazing. I've eaten here for mother's day brunch and we recently dined here for dinner. The shrimp appetizer with Thai chili sauce was one of their specials and was amazing and the maple glazed slab bacon was decent. My husband got the Hanger Steak entrée which was delicious (I'm ordering it next time) and I got their catch of the day scallop entrée which was tasty. The ambiance is nice and chic and it's neat that it's close to the St. Paul airport runway so we saw helicopters landing during our dinner. The service was good as well. I can see why this place is popular. It's not that big inside so reservations are recommended! read more

Used to love this place so much! Stopped in for brunch and was hard to get service starting at the host stand, smaller parties are asked to sit at the bar. Very sad when the rest of the bar is beautiful and you are in the janitors closet and smooshed into the wall. Unfortunately I don't think I'll be returning, which breaks my heart because this was a go-to! read more

Unbearable atmosphere, incredible service and a delightful menu, Holman's Table is a hidden gem in St. Paul that offers a responsibly-sourced menu against an art deco former airline passenger terminal (home to Northwest Airlines). Best of all, the restaurant boasts views of the active St. Paul Airport and it's fun seeing planes come and go. Just cross the river from downtown St. Paul, be sure to check it out! read more

Wife and I came here for our 15th anniversary. We made reservations in advance and let them know the occasion so we were a little disappointed with the table we ended up being sat at (small two person table sandwiched between a corner booth and a large table with an infant) but in their defense after the table next to us left our waitress offered to move us over. The drinks and food were all fantastic! The location is easy to find if you follow the signs within the airport and parking is plentiful, valet would be nice for these cold nights but it's not a far walk from the lot. You can hear the planes and watch them if you are seated near the window. Gorgeous historical building. read more

Wow! Brought my family here for brunch and we were absolutely blown away. Definitely a new favorite spot in St. Paul. We loved every single bite of food we had. Our only complaint was that the water smelled very fishy. So skip the water and grab yummy beverage. Our server gave us the best recommendations. Make sure to grab a reservation! Cheers! read more

This was my second visit to Holman's and it, again, did not disappoint! From the very cool deco style building it is housed in to the restaurant itself it is a wonderful experience. The restaurant is a warm, cozy, romantic ambiance perfect for a wonderful dinner with a special someone, friends or family, or to celebrate an occasion. This visit was to celebrate some work news for me and I wanted to go out and do something special. First of all the service is impeccable! The servers and support team are warm, professional, and have perfect timing in checking back etc. Finding this level of service and timing is surprisingly rare so that just adds even more to the experience. The food.... consistently exceptional! From our cocktails, to the Mushroom toast (WOW.. delicious flavor explosion) and Charcuterie plate (great selection of meats and cheeses, warm baguette, and accompaniments) the food was excellent!! We transitioned over to the Wedge salad which had beautiful, crunchy romaine lettuce, tasty bacon and a fresh delicious blue cheese dressing with tomato and chives. It was a perfect transition from appetizers to entrees. Our entree was the Buccatini with an arrabiatta sauce which was fresh tasting and had the perfect level of spice. The pasta was perfectly prepared as well so it all came together beautifully especially with the Lemon-Basil ricotta addition it was fantastic! Highly recommend these dishes and this restaurant! read more

The food was good, the service was great, and the vibe was chill. I've made reservations before through the app they use. And this is the first place to follow up on a request I made.

Wait staff was excellent. Even with a heavy snow storm, they kept a positive attitude. The food paled in comparison. Paying over $30 per person for omelets and other items that were cold, overcooked, not to order and disappointing. I mean really, the main reason we go to eat is the food and this was a historic miss. We have been to Holman's Table multiple times and this was not typical. I wonder it the kitchen staff was short staffed as we all could not find anything that would bring us back. The buttery biscuits were over cooked, Omelets were bland, fries were soggy and the burger and steaks were dry and not to order. Like I said earlier, wait staff were on point, but the food...Even leftovers couldn't redeem this misadventure. read more

Great food and ambiance. Nice spot for a low-key dinner on a Friday night after landing at STP.

Sat at the bar on a busy Sat night so would definitely make a reservation. It's kinda in a random place being at the St Paul Downtown Airport but the restaurant ambiance is nice. Our bartender was friendly and fun and I wasn't super hungry so I just got the bacon item under the starters but it was very good. Based off my dish, I imagine the rest of the food there is pretty good and I'd consider going back to try. read more

I took my mother here for brunch and this place is amazing. As you drive through the airport you arrive at a parking lot with an amazing view of the downtown saint paul skyline. The view is breathing and you feel as if you can reach out and touch the city. As we entered the beautiful building we are greeted by all types of stonework and an extremely clean environment. Even the men's bathroom was clean and these days I'm not sure what men do but how do you get pee on the floor. We didn't have reservations so we got a seat and the hostess escorted us to the bar. The bar had many selections of alcohol and the coffee was very good. The coffee was black as a demonic soul and was not bitter or burnt. The bartender serving us was Nate and he was extremely friendly and accommodating. After the stressful morning, I ordered a mimosa that was mixed to perfection. For food, we decided to split a pizza and it was divine. The pizza had flavors of the different meats and a hint of basil. I was surprised it was so delicious. The day followed with another mimosa and witty banter. I plan on coming back here for dinner sometime and would highly recommend it. read more

Decided to meet a friend here for a light dinner. We ended up sitting outside with a view of the tarmac, definitely a different experience than you can have at most places! Got a couple appetizers to start, the meatball and the cauliflower. The meatball sounded like a version of Swedish meatball, which it definitely was and was delicious. Although, it was one GIANT meatball that we cut up. It had pomegranate seed instead of lingonberry, but had the gravy and dill like traditional Swedish Meatballs have. The charred cauliflower was also very good, with a yogurt sauce. We were a little hungrier after that so we both ordered a salad. This is where it lost a little for me. The salads are huge, and no option for a half salad. I got the quinoa salad and there wasn't a lot of quinoa on it. I probably wouldn't get a salad there again. Service was pleasant, albeit, a bit slower. As always, I don't necessarily want to be rushed but I didn't expect to sit there for 2+ hours either. Saw that they have a fun happy hour in the bar area so may try to stop in again for that. Will come back and get entrees and with the expectation that is an easy-going service and plan accordingly. read more

I recently went to Holman Table for brunch with a friend and was not disappointed. You simply CANNOT beat the location with views of the airport and planes passing by. A huge recommendation I would give would be to make a reservation as things do tend to get a bit crowded. Our waitress was incredible and very kind and timely. The biscuits with the jam were so flaky and the jam was tarte and sweet. My fried chicken sandwich was also packed with flavor and I loved how a side of fruit was a sides option. The one thing I will note is that the food does fall on the pricier side but if you are looking for a special occasion brunch, this place is TOTALLY a go-to! read more

I wanted to give a 3.5 but 3 seems like I didn't like it. It was really good. For starters, we had a reservation and still waited 30 minutes past that time. Sometimes this can be difficult to control. The waiting area felt like a cheap hotel lobby, or a library or something. I think this could be improved with better lighting and some paint really. Once we got to our seat, okay I'm not tiny, but I'm not that big. I couldn't fit in the booth. That was embarrassing. Like all the other reviews, that burger is really good. A nice thick patty cooked to a perfect, I mean perfect medium. Cheese could've been a little melted. I'm not sure the foie gras butter is necessary other than aesthetic, but that gravy is spectacular. I would've liked more to dip the burger in. Mushrooms of some kind, I think they says truffles are in it. It had a Salisbury steak quality, in a good way. I'd get it again for sure. My brother enjoyed his bucatini quite a bit. My friend enjoyed the vegetarian salad of some sort. The salad came out about ten minutes prior to the rest of the food. The potatoes lacked salt and were not crispy at all, in fact were slightly under. The service was great. Our server was very professional and we enjoyed her quite a bit. She was mad that our salad came out before the rest of the food lol. It was fine tho. The burger and the service get four stars. I'll be back bc my buddies want to try that burger at happy hour, it's $10 cheaper read more
