Had a celebratory brunch here and it was spectacular! Service was amazing and we had the most bubbly, excited and stylish server (forgot your name, but you were wearing the most stylish glasses and red beanie)! She was legit excited about the food she was serving and said that celebrations deserved their multilayer, rich and delicious chocolate cake! And the chocolate cake was indeed delicious and tasted very celebratory. The restaurant itself was airy and full of light. It was very welcoming and cozy at the same time. The food was amazing, I had one of their fantastic breakfast sandwich that had a delicious pesto in it and a perfect side salad with a vinagrete that was very complimentary to the richness of the breakfast sandwich. Will definitely go back and highly recommend it! read more

This is the kind of place that makes you say wow. Their food is spectacular. Went there for my sister's bday dinner with family, and will definitely be back. Service was impeccable, great beer selection for being a fancy spot. Didn't feel pressured to over order, but was given excellent suggestions. My personal favorite was the short rib. Dang. So so good. They do have plenty of parking nearby, but make sure you don't park across the street in the no parking zones (they are marked, just saw some folks getting tickets so just wanted to throw that out there.) read more

Lynette's was a stylish neighborhood spot good for a small group of friends or family. The food however was so so. The star of the show was the short rib because of its savory kick. Everyone at the table wanted more. The rest of food (foie gras meatballs, mussels, pizza) lacked flavor. The papri chat was more like a sweet potato salad with some Indian toppings. read more

My last review must've been deleted! I've been here for brunch and dinner, and each time I'm impressed by the quality of food and the service. This has become one of my favorite places to take people from out of town because of how cozy and warm the ambiance is! Their cocktails and mocktails and coffee drinks have all been delicious too. Truly something here for everyone:) there's a tiny parking lot behind the building but there's also ample street parking around the area. Will be back again soon :) read more

I went with my husband for a cute lil happy hour moment! The happy hour menu was great with lots of options! Theres mussels were amazing!!!

Lynette is definitely a fancier restaurant for me, more advanced flavors and combinations than my typical scene. I went with a group of 5 for dinner so we got quite a few dishes, most of which were really dazzling. As a table we got the special appetizer whipped feta drizzled with honey and fluffy pita bread, crispy cauliflower, coconut curry hummus, charred eggplant, seared sea scallops, duck fat fries, lamb sausage pizza, and steak frites. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the dishes they got & shared except for the steak which was over cooked for medium; still edible, but not worth $55. Including 3 drinks and a soda our total came out to $230 which is pretty steep but the quality and quantity of the food I think justifies it (except for the steak). I personally loved the scallops and whipped feta dishes, they were scrumptious. Our server was friendly and accommodating and our food came out not even 20 minutes after we ordered even though it was busy. For a special occasion, I would certainly come here again. read more

A lovely place for breakfast with some really yummy food! For breakfast we did not need a reservation but it did fill up around 9:30-10am. I'm a huge fan of the breakfast burrito that is succulent, soft and has a nice subtle flavor of pork and a pop of flavor with the salsa. My friend said they loved the french toast. Service was prompt and not over bearing. read more

This place is pretty top notch. First experience was a little frustrating as the young hostess was snooty about the walk in situation. The second time we reserved and the same lady tried to put us at the crappy tables by the door... I'm a POC so im used to this. Just asked to be placed at a nicer table. The food is absolutely divine! I've had a ton of beef tartar and this was easily the best I've ever had. Mussels were crazy good. Cocktails are thoughtful and creative. Service was good each time I've been after. Burger is one the city's best. Really a great spot! read more

I really like Lynette. It has quickly become one of my go to breakfast/lunch places when I'm in a pinch or looking for a reliable place to eat. Parking is limited to the street, but I've never had to walk more than half a block. Food wise, I love the harvest danish (though all of the their pastries are good and I believe are made in house? Someone correct me if I'm wrong). The breakfast sandwich is also stellar. Service wise, this place has been great 9 times out of 10. I had a long wait for food once on a weekend, but oh well. Not that big of a deal. They have a large patio for the summer which is lovely -- as is the interior -- love the large booths! read more

Returned to Lynette for brunch following a not so pleasant first experience this summer where I felt compelled to address and did in my initial review. Following that review I was contacted by the GM and offered a chance to return with a complimentary gift card. Today,I finally returned to use said gift card and to enjoy a nice neighborhood brunch with my family. Contrary to my previous visit we were pleasantly welcomed and led right to our table. Our server Austin was relaxed but attentive and wasn't afraid to give his opinion on the brunch menu (which is always welcomed by me). It was also lovely to see that the staff had become more diverse since my first visit there. Service this time around felt more like a team working together to ensure a great experience is had by all. And Billie who appeared to be a manager was a breath of fresh air and stepped in when Austin was busy with the other tables in our seating area. We all thoroughly enjoyed our food but agreed we would want it seasoned more generously. Missed pictures of our apps that included the kale salad with peanut vinaigrette, duck fat fries and the Japanese tempura shrimp - favs of those were the duck fat fries w aioli and the tempura shrimp! We also got the dishes pictured below. Very enjoyable and delicious! We live in the neighborhood and hope they dial the seasoning up some but definitely plan to return! read more

Brought my mom to brunch while she was in town and sat at the bar. The service was a little slow, but the food made up for it. I had a latte and the avocado toast and my mom had the traditional breakfast. The avocado toast was unique and tasty - but pretty small. My mom enjoyed her breakfast - most notably the bacon and toast. The breakfast potatoes were seasoned very well. The overall ambience is very cute inside. I have and would go back to try more items and to go for dinner. read more

I went to Lynette in Minneapolis for a She's Invited brunch event, and it was such a fun and memorable experience. The vibe was stylish but comfortable, and our server Wayne made it even better ,he had fantastic recommendations and a fun, bubbly personality that really elevated the brunch. The drinks were a highlight the dirty martini was delicious and perfectly curated, with blue cheese stuffed olives that were the perfect touch. I also tried the Aperol Spritz, which was just okay compared to the martini, but still refreshing. For food, I had the avocado toast with over easy eggs. The flavors were great and the eggs were cooked perfectly, but the avocados weren't quite ripe enough, which threw off the texture a bit. Even so, the dish was still super tasty and satisfying. Overall, Lynette is a gem in Minneapolis between the excellent brunch cocktails, flavorful dishes, and Wayne's amazing service, I'd definitely come back (especially for that martini!). read more

Lynette has the perfect vibe for a neighbor restaurant. It is casual enough that families with young kids, groups of friends, and couples having a date night all feel welcome. The menu was interesting, there are a large variety of cuisines represented across the dishes. Our meal ranged from Japanese inspired brussel sprouts to French inspired steamed mussels. The dishes were prepared well and and were all tasty. The server seemed busy, but did a good job coursing out our menu and checking in when they could. The soft serve ice cream cones for dessert were a fun touch! read more

A good place to have some good food and drinks with friends or family. Service was a bit slow as they were full but it's worth the wait as long as you're not in a hurry.

Stopped by for brunch today. I ordered their standard breakfast but with the HASHBROWN CAKE, rosemary, maldon, ketchup. Sorry, these were just like the ones I get in the freezer section at Lunds. There was no rosemary or maldon salt. Please change your menu or update the description to be accurate. Both Doll and I loved the rest of the meal. Doll got the Blackened Avocado toast with eggs and loved it. My scrambled eggs and sausage was very good. But I was looking forward to the rosemary and Maldon potatoes. read more

My partner and I had a delightful dinner at Lynette on a Sunday evening. We didn't make reservations and they were able to accommodate us. Our server was kind and attentive. The meal was delicious and our dishes had some kick. We were doing some business planning and the atmosphere was perfect - not too loud, not too bright or too dark, and overall good vibes. The wine selection was also lovely - I enjoyed the sparkling rose and a glass of La Patience. read more

First time here so would definitely recommend giving it a couple more tries. Ambiance very nice, staff friendly, plenty of space for small or large groups. I just happened to pick the wrong thing off the menu. My partner had traditional breakfast which he always likes. Over medium eggs perfect, bacon cooked well, potatoes good but slightly overcooked. I picked the breakfast sandwich. I love a good breakfast sandwich (my favorite). Unfortunately this one failed. The bread it came on was like soggy French toast, way over buttery. The pesto was tasteless, and the tomato jam was way too sweet and overpowered the sandwich flavor. The arugula was mushy soggy because of too much butter and jam. I ended up trying to scrape everything off and just eat the egg and bacon. Better luck next time, but do give it a try. There's many more items on the menu. I will try again, maybe happy hour. The bar seating is very welcoming with cushion chairs and they do have great outdoor patio. read more

Lynette is the rare combination of high brow food in a comfortable atmosphere. The price point is a bit higher and the food matches the expectations that sets forth, but there is nothing snobby about Lynette's service or ambiance. First, their cocktail and mocktail lists are fantastic. Gone are the days of mocktails being sofa water with a splash of orange juice for $20 - these are real deal fun. They also have THC seltzers which I always love to see. The entrees are meant for the table and perfect for splitting or sharing family style. While the short rib and crab risotto were both fantastic, the roasted broccoli was actually the star of the show for us. And the apple crumble dessert came with a UNIT of ice cream. Their happy hour is also fantastic, perfect to sit at the bar with a burger and fuck fat fries. Overall, we love Lynette's whether it's for a nice date night or a quick happy hour bite. We have yet to try their brunch but you can bet it's next on our list. read more

First visit to Lynette and we loved it. Its bright, open airy vibe brought energy to the patrons. I'm glad we secured a reservation as it was quite busy on a Thursday early evening. We were immediately seated at a nice window table, overlooking the patio to be used on warmer days and nights. For dinner, our server encouraged us to share. We opted for the broccoli, panko shrimp, and short ribs. All were cooked perfectly. The broccoli had a nice spicy bite to it tempered by blue cheese and curiously added puffed rice. The panko shrimp were huge, with 2 pieces for each of us. The sauce with these seemed to have a cucumber base and it was very good. The short ribs were super tender and deliciously served with a tamale. Our server was excellent. She made great suggestions and allowed us a nice leisurely pace. Parking was on street, although they do have a small lot in back. Great stop!! read more

Yes, was so happy to visit Lynette after Lyn65 closed and was very happy that the pizzas and chicken were on the menu. A bonus kicker was complimentary soft serve cones (mini guys) were offered after dinner. Drinks are always on tap, plus Lynette has a full coffee bar for their breakfast folks, so they have real espresso for those who want to indulge in an espressy martini for dinner (or lunch). Service is great and getting in early gives you the option to belly up at the bar, which is always entertaining and good people watching. Lynette is located in south Minneapolis, kiddy corner from the Riverview Theater. There is plenty of free street parking, or walkable for those who live nearby. Definitely plan to return to grab a burger and more drinks, plus the free soft serve! read more

We ate with friends at Lynette. They'd eaten at Lynette a few times before and thought we would like it. They were right. We had a very enjoyable and VERY delicious meal. Our friends told us the space has been through a few iterations -- night spot, coffee place, etc. The interior was very casual but classy, the bar was very nice and inviting. Overall I liked the space quite a lot. Street parking was plentiful around the restaurant (and free!) We had: -Spicy boy mocktail (hubby said it was good) -carrots -- served with some really tasty stuff and really delicous -cauliflower (we chose korean bbq)... this was AWESOME. crispy on the outside, tender inside and flavorful -Ceasar -- nice and fresh and crispy -Beef tartare -- my personal favorite. served with a raw egg yolk and absolutely delicious. When we return, I will probably get this all for myself. -burger with egg - a very tasty burger served on a nice big bun. It was honestly a little messy not because of the egg but because of the copious amount of sauce on it. The burger kind of had trouble staying in the bun. I was somewhat disappointed that they broke the yolk for me and it came to the table with runny yolk already congealing on my plate. -Ribeye steak - so so yummy. So generous in serving size. I will admit, I had ordering envy. I think this is really the standout entre. -Our friends had the rabbit bolognese and the short rib, both of which looked amazing (but I did not sample either) -Soft serve ice cream for dessert, which is a super fun throwback kind of way to end the meal. Really fun. Our server was excellent and took good care of us. Staff circulated and made sure everyone had everything they needed. The only thing I found kind of odd was that they brought our vegetables first as appetizers basically and our mains after. I wish they'd asked our preference. I wish we'd been able to have our vegetables with our proteins. But overall everything we ate was delicious and we will definitely come back. read more

Lynette truly feels like a restaurant where locals come to grab a bite. People of all ages, dressed in all different attire, blend seamlessly together to make this new-ish Minneapolis spot as diverse as its food. I love the cozy booths with personal lamps, the tiled floor that gives cafeteria vibes but in a nostalgic way, and the big, bold bar from which the rest of the restaurant seems to draw energy. Our waitress was spectacular and by the time we finished our meal, there was a cluster of hungry humans awaiting our departure. The drinks: I stick with red wine, but if I had to recommend a cocktail, it would undoubtably be the Gucci. It's slightly herby yet smokey from the mezcal, and definitely liquor forward. The small plates: get the roasted sweet potato dish; do not be turned off by the combination of apples and coconut curry puree. I would honestly order this as a main. The sweet potatoes are tender medallions coated in this rich curry sauce with bright pops of flavor from the apples. The roasted broccoli was also a table favorite; it's cooked until just crispy and then piled on this creamy blue cheese concoction, too small for a main but perfect to share. The mains: I made the mistake of ordering pizza. I have my favorite pizzas around the cities (Rosalia, Young Joni, Station Pizza, Sanjusan, Boludo) and not that the lamb pizza was bad, but it was bland and tasted like a straight forward sausage pizza, crust lacking flavor. The burger, on the other hand, was fantastic. Two smash patties with American cheese and dijonnaise, simple and elegant, just as any good burger should be. I did not try the scallops but were told they were "maybe the best I've had" by one of my dining partners. High praise, given that they typically order scallops anytime they appear on the menu. Overall, Lynette seems to have its mind set on being a neighborhood restaurant, something I think it has almost already achieved. The veggie dishes and drinks are stars. They have an excellent burger and other creative dishes. Do not be boring and get pizza, not worth it here! read more

I really enjoyed my meal at Lynette! I went with two girlfriends and we tried the cauliflower, hummus & pita, mussels, crab Rangoon pizza, carrots, and pork ravioli. The surprising favorite was the crispy cauliflower! Can't go wrong with fried food I guess, but the flavors of the entire dish were on point. The hummus and warm pita was also super good. Ravioli was quite tasty, surprisingly it was a vegetarian ravioli with slices of pork belly on the side. The mussels were a little disappointing, not from an execution or freshness standpoint, but I didn't love the sauce they came with (it was tomato based) and we agreed we would have preferred a classic French style with lemon, white wine, etc. The pizza was good but not great-- probably would try a different flavor next time. The service was really kind and the space itself is large and airy, it was easy to have conversations and didn't feel too crowded on a Tuesday night. A super nice touch at the end of the meal is that they offer complimentary mini vanilla soft serve cones!! Great way to end the night. I will definitely come back for brunch or to explore more of the menu. read more

Made reservations for Lynette to grab dinner with a friend. Was surprised it wasn't too busy at 5:30pm in the evening. We started with margaritas, which were fresh and had a good ratio of tequila to juice. Our server was attentive and helped us to order appetizers and dinner. We started with the cauliflower with fish sauce and the caesar salad. The cauliflower did not disappoint. But, the caesar salad was a miss for me. It lacked flavor and didn't give me the creamy deliciousness of a caesar salad. We decided to split the crab risotto and a burger with fries. I was very excited to try these options, but felt disappointed by their lackluster. Everything just tasted "okay" to me. Flavor profiles were bland and didn't sell me. Lynette seems like a cute place to have in the south Minneapolis neighborhood and I know folks who love it. The vibes are there the food didn't impress me. read more
