AMAZING! I visited on a Thursday around 6pm and sat at the bar with my friend. We ordered the Chefs Choice cocktail to start with which I highly recommend! It's a jalapeño and basil infused gin with Aperol, Cucumber Oleo and lemon-so good we ordered two each! To eat we ordered the Baked Reginette Bolognese and the Smoked Brisket Sandwich. Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. The servicing sizes are pretty big so you are likely to have leftovers. The service was superb and we were never left waiting. Great place for happy hour or a bite to eat. read more

I really want to love this place. Great ambiance, location, and busy but never packed. My first experience was a takeout order during Covid to support local businesses. I don't like to review based on takeout so I left it be. It was nothing special and clearly previously frozen. Decided to stop in again but for brunch. They have a full bar but only list 3 drinks on the brunch menu. Mimosa, Irish coffee, and Bloody Mary. Their mimosas were a great pour and I didn't feel the need for more than one! We ordered the Crab Benedict and Eggs Florentine. Both had FANTASTIC flavor! Unfortunately, the poached eggs on the crab were practically hard boiled, and my Florentine was a soup. I had to drink the eggs. Not super pleasant. The flavor, as mentioned before, was yummy! Very buttery, with tangy roasted tomatoes. Service was good, and we didn't feel rushed. They have a host stand, but it wasn't super clear if you should seat yourself or not. I saw people doing both. Street parking but not too hard to find a spot. I will definitely give it one or two more tries and update my review. Need to go for dinner, and I'm curious to try their French toast! read more

Attended a MN Rum Club event at NE Social. Theme was Mardi Gras. Went in blind not having been before and not knowing what dishes would be served. Boy was I surprised. NE Social has a fun neighborhood space perfect for upscale cocktails and creative dishes. We started off with Zapp's Voodoo chips and onion dip paired with 4 samples of yummy Cheramie sugarcane rums. The 4-course meal was incredible: a crawfish arancini, a soft shell crab po'boy, étouffée with shrimp, andouille and walleye, and a crème brûlée banana cheesecake. All the sauces on each dish were lip licking delicious. We were blown away by the Chef's creations AND the rum cocktails prepared for each course. The dishes & drinks were difficult to serve our group of approx 30; however, the staff did an excellent job getting us the food while it was still hot and the drinks nicely chilled. The Chef needs to seriously consider adding some of these dishes on NE Social's everyday menu. They were that good. Finally, thanks to Chuck of MN Rum Club for putting together an incredible event. read more

Service was subpar and their brunch was disgusting. Took 30 min for our food when there was barely anyone there, the French toast was absolutely awful and I would not call it French toast at all, crab Benedict and avocado toast was also terrible. read more

Northeast Social is a MUST for brunch! We needed a table for 5 (4 adults + 1 baby) for brunch on short notice and they went above & beyond to accommodate us. When we first walked in, we were delighted by the holiday decor. It feels reminiscent of the Hogwarts Great Hall at Christmas, and nothing can top that! (No ogres spotted). All the servers were helpful and fun. Beyond the good vibes, the food was phenomenal. The current brunch special is house made biscuits with sausage gravy, and it was so savory and flavorful without being overly heavy or salty. Others raved about the crab Benedict AND they custom made a traditional Benedict for our table, too. Phenomenal service and phenomenal experience! I can't wait to head back for dinner sometime soon. read more

"Hidden Gem" and I only say that is because I have lived in this area of Northeast Minneapolis and never noticed it. We went on Valentines Day and the drinks and food were SO good. Even though it was busier because of the holiday our server was still very attentive and friendly. We ordered the beef carpaccio to start and then these may have been special dishes that night but we got the scallop puttanesca and the buccatini bolognese. Both entrees were extremely delicious. It was also snowing very hard that night and we sat right by the window it was so beautiful. We will definitely be back! read more

This restaurant is a hidden treasure nestled a couple blocks off Broadway. The ambiance is curated to be an upscale cocktail and New American Cuisine establishment with friendly service. I was impressed by the knowledge the waiter had on the beer list and food options. I gave 4 stars because I ordered the Potato Cavatelli Cacio e Pepe and was not enthralled by the flavor (over peppery). Everything else was great! read more

Our friends picked our dinner spot and picked Northeast Social - a restaurant that I've always heard about but never actually been to. So I was pleased to finally get the chance to check it out. I had the Peach's Castle, which was lovely and peachy. We were with friends who are vegetarian, and it was nice that we could find appetizer options to share that everyone could eat. We got the market cheese, which is cheese, bread, some yummy like apricot preserves and some greens (yay veggies), and we got the mushroom bruschetta, which was pretty tasty. As a table, we ordered: the gnocchi, the scallops, the "arugula," which came with a thinly sliced peach on top... yum, and the chicken. My entree was the gnocchi. They TASTED great and I did clear my plate. But they were very dense and heavy, not light and pillowy like some gnocchi. The chicken was excellent. I would order that if we went back. And we split the panna cotta and the tiramisu for dessert, both of which were totally good. Our waiter (whose name I unfortunately forget) was great. Would definitely go back. read more

Perhaps I did not order the right type of food here but my first experience is merely okay in terms of food. The service is great and I had a very attentive and patient server. The location and space are also suitable for friendly conversations. Pretty much everything about the place is great. Just the food taste doesn't do it for me. This rating is in fact a 3.5 but I have chosen 3 because I do not think I can bring it up to a 4, unfortunately. The French baguette was good with butter but the bread itself was old and hard. I had an Ivorian friend with me who was a French cuisine connoisseur and she recognized the same issue. Then the gnocchi, which had flavor that I did not expect. It wasn't too creamy or rich, which was great. I think there might have been too much of the sun-dried tomatoes flavor but the sour taste from it was pretty strong. Maybe it is because sun-dried tomatoes are concentrated in terms of that flavor. The manicotti felt like it could be made in other more casual settings. The spinach basil cream felt a bit like artichoke dip, and the ricotta felt like it was not really prepared prior to putting them into the pasta. The bread was good despite not tasting fresh (kind of soggy). The rosemary honey panna cotta was amazing! Have a spoon of a bit of the panna cotta with the honey was truly a great experience. The flourless chocolate torte was great as well, especially since it was flourless it would tasted like it was missing something. But that was okay because the expectation was already there. I saw that some of their meat dishes are more popular, so if I decide to visit again, then I may give those a shot instead! But overall if people happen to be around the area, then I will still recommend them. read more

Found this place by accident after our planned dinner spot was closed. Wandered into a charming and classy dining space with a dark gothic Alice in wonderland vibe. Lots of art on the walls, black and blue and silver decor, and candlelight. Our server was busy tending bar but still had time to give us a detailed run down of the menu and all the specials. I got the social burger, which comes with deliciously crisp shoestring fries. The burger was just the right size and incredibly well seasoned. The soup of the day and brisket sandwich were also enjoyed by my companions. We got the seasonal cheesecake for dessert, which was turtle. Also very tasty. It started to get busy when we were getting ready to go so we had to wait a bit to get the bill but I didn't mind because I got to look at everything on the walls some more. Pretty convinced I found a magic portal to a delicious place last night when I walked in these doors. read more

This was the first time we tried Northeast Social and I can't say enough about how amazing everything was. Ambiance was stellar with some jazz music in the background, cool tin ceilings, eclectic artwork and comfy seating. Chase, the GM served us and he was prompt and helpful with the selections. Our apps and mains were spaced perfectly and drinks always refilled. On to the best part the food! It was delectable. The duck cooked to perfection, best duck ever, half a hen was scrumptious, crab linguine was picture perfect and packed with crab. The manicotti could feed two and my Italian father said the best he ever had. High praise indeed. I can't say enough good things we will definitely be back. read more

I'm so happy that I was able to enjoy a date night here. It's been around 2 years since the last time I was here. It's still feels cozy and intimate which is why I loved coming the first place. Their decorations are very moody and have the place decorated for the Holidays. Our server was simply amazing and gave us great suggestions. We had the plate of cheese which came with 2 different types. My past year is not a cheese plate sort of guy and for him to say that he's glad he was able to try it because he would of missed out was awesome. I agree as well that both cheeses were very very tasty. I do wish their were more slices of bread as the cheese was pretty big and by the end you were left with just taking big bites which I don't mind since I'm a cheese lover. I tried the old fashioned and it was good! The main meal was steak and the vegetables were cooked perfectly and the steak as well. It had great seasoning and loved how crispy the potatoes were crispy on the outside and very fluffy in the inside. I also tried the rigatoni and that was such a warm dish because of the spices. Definitely a must try during this cold season. Now for the finally the rosemary panna cotta with warm honey was the star! I've never had a dessert quiet like that one it was incredibly creamy and you get a subtle taste of rosemary. I'm not ashamed to say that I did scrap off the rest of the honey and it was so worth it. I truly want to come back again for dessert! What a great experience this was! read more

We had a reservation for later but snuck in early and they accommodated us at the bar and then even prepared a table later for us. Took a bit for staff to greet us at the door but otherwise service was amazing. I really felt they cared about giving us a nice experience and were so attentive, friendly and each had their own recommendations. Drinks - old fashioned and the potato one Both fantastic. I liked the one I chose (sweet potato and rum the most I think I had 4 oops) Food - beef capriccio was the stunner - amazing We also had the manicotti and the short rib. Both delicious and portions are so large! We could have shared one entree but I'm not complaining!! Desert was the Pana cotta - it's not super sweet. Texture is wonderful!! read more

Service and food outstanding, and reasonably priced. Will return soon. Adding more characters because I have to.

We couldn't get a reservation, so we sat at the bar. The main (male) bartender was quite rude, as others here have mentioned. The place is cute, but no one should have to put up with rude treatment. We got the baguette & sausage for appetizers, which were good. The burger was overcooked, but not terrible. Their desserts were unappealing to us, so we had dessert elsewhere. I used to love Eat Street Social, may it RIP. I won't return to this location. read more

We arrived on Sunday, just as Theater Latte Da was getting out at the Ritz down the street. The cozy space filled rather quickly, yet the waitstaff was attentive and helpful in discussing the specials. This is the second "Social" restaurant in Minneapolis (the other is on "Eat Street." The menu is diverse and pleasantly adventurous for a local restaurant. Everyone in your party should find something to order. We started with the butter lettuce salad, which included 2 plump anchovies. The fish wasn't oily or too salty, and added a nice note to the garlic dressing. Next, the beef carpaccio, nicely presented with easy to remove slices of raw beef covered with cracked pepper and olive oil. There could have been a few more slices of baguette, but still recommended. The seared tuna was beautifully platted and delicious. There was a spicy bite to the coating, but otherwise perfectly done. The burgers were thick and juicy, and quite flavorful. The melted cheddar cheese added another flavor layer without cutting into the taste of the meat. Cut the burger in half so it's easier to manage. The only request our party had was TURN DOWN THE MUSIC!!!!!!!!! read more

After being away from this destination for quite a while, due to the pandemic, I've returned this year - twice, to be exact. Each time was to be able to enjoy a little food and drink before walking down the sidewalk to Theater Latte Da to see a play. Both times, my companion and I have opted to sit at the bar; neither time did we have a reservation. Lucky for us there were open seats at the bar, allowing us to interact with their wonderful bartender (and now, for the life of me, I cannot recall his name). He's attentive without being overly so, and so informative, helpful and pleasant. And he makes very tasty cocktails! We've eaten the beef carpaccio (and enjoyed it immensely) as well as the braised octopus crudo (we ordered both times we've been here this year) - what an amazing dish! Also, we ordered their "flatbread of the day" once and it was wonderful, too. The staff we've encountered work well together, fluidly, effortlessly, very much like a well-oiled machine. And it shows on their faces and in their actions that they're enjoying what they're doing there, together. I look forward to returning again and again. read more

We were in town on business, staying in a nearby suburb, and wanted to avoid chains. Yelp to the rescue yet again! We were so glad to find such a good option only about a 20 minute drive away from our hotel. The name is a little tricky to see in the restaurant window, but Google maps will get you there. We parked in a lot adjacent to the building which we were told was OK midweek as there were no events in the hall that shares the building with Northeast Social. There did seem to be plenty of street parking, but it was a little icy and we had a rental car, so the lot was a nice option. The menu changes seasonally, and they still had the winter menu going mid March which was fine with us! The cocktail menu had a lot of fun options. I went with the Urban Paradise which was excellent. For my entree I had the seared duck breast which was tender and so flavorful! The portion was very generous and the beet risotto and roasted squash were wonderful accompaniments. I was pretty full, but couldn't resist the rosemary honey panna cotta. Our server said this never leaves the menu, and I can see why. It was creamy, delicious and rosemary and honey actually pair extremely well. This is an excellent option if you are up for a bit of a flavor adventure. The atmosphere was great. I loved the tin ceilings and retro decor. This seems like a neighborhood place, but we didn't feel at all out of place as visitors. Everyone was friendly, knew the menu well, and we had a great, relaxing dinner after a long day of meetings. read more

Two words: Beef carpaccio. Ok a few more words: cheese plate and pork chop too. Northeast Social has some incredible food on their menu and I want it all the dang time. Their beef carpaccio comes in a small and large size, and their "small" is served like a 2ft plate. Each slice of (raw) beef is sliced so thin, making it melt-in-your-mouth good. It's simply dressed with cracked black pepper, lemon, olive oil, microgreens, and served with baguette slices... bless the beef gods; it's heavenly. Their cheese plate is lovely too. Their pork chop though... we can't stop talking about it. It really set the bar for all chops o' pork going forward. It was thick, meaty, a juicy, and had incredible grilled flavor. I also loved my market fist. I forget what kind it was, but it was new to me and very meaty yet delicate. The space is gorgeous too. I love the high ornate ceilings, beautiful bar, and cool local art. The only (slight) downsides were: my fish was raw in the middle, though the server said it should be cooked medium, so they simply re-fired it real quick. We were there were more cocktails that had bitter or less sweet profiles, but they also have a full bar! read more

This was our first time eating here and got the BBQ meal for 2 delivered. Getting BBQ delivery is not ideal so expectations should be lowered a little bit. With that in mind we thought this was average overall. There were some bright spots - the brisket was my favorite meat with great flavor, and pulled pork just behind that. The ribs were really tough, not sure if this is a product of delivery or if they are always like this. The BBQ sauce was fantastic though so that made up for some lost ground on textures and flavors on the meat. As for the sides the collard greens were by far and away the best in my opinion with a perfect amount of heat (other than heavily buttered texas toast, I mean come on). The beans didn't carry much flavor and the brussel sprouts were quite stiff and didn't have much flavor unless you grabbed a piece of the bacon mixed in. Overall there was definitely plenty of food for 2 people and I loved having all the different items. That said I think the quality could be a little higher for a $50 meal, but am willing to give this another shot when we are allowed to dine in and see if that changes my mind. read more

Northeast Social - BBQ meal for 2 - New American Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

Very nice atmosphere and wonderfully friendly staff. We went for cocktails and appetizers and enjoyed everything.

I dined here on Valentines Day and was a little embarrassed to have talked this place up to my date. Is this "upscale casual" restaurant trend just a gimmick to provide average service and average food at ghastly prices? The tenderloin entree, served with fingerling potatoes and broccolini, was disappointing. Underdone and flavorless potatoes, underdone broccolini, all accompanying a not-so-tender cut of steak. Eh. The braised short rib came out looking rather unappealing, plated more as a stew with whatever sauces and juices were sloppily scooped on. Tasty cocktails and a panna cotta ordered out of main course dissatisfaction were the highlights. For the prices I don't think I'll return. read more

Wow! I am so impressed with this place! Although the space is pretty small, it was very cozy and the service was on point! We had a reservation at 6:30pm on a Friday-the table was ready was ready when we arrived and we were seated right away! Within a few seconds, our water glasses were filled and we began to explore the menu. Our server came by shortly to ask if we had any questions on the drinks, someone from my party did and he was able to answer her questions and provide recommendations that fit her tastes. I ordered the Social Greenie- it was perfect and very refreshing! For dinner, I had the seared duck breast. It came with charred kale, endives, and apricots. Everything paired so well together! The duck breast was juicy and flavorful and not dry, as duck can sometimes get. The kale/endives complimented the apricots beautifully! Although this place is a bit spendy, it was well worth what I paid. I will definitely come back to try the other dishes! read more

We discovered this little gem of a place because the wait at Young Joni was crazy, and wow. From the homemade sausage appetizer to the entrees to the cocktails and finally to the so-good-I-got-a-little-emotional Rosemary Panna Cotta we had for dessert, everything was delicious. Add that to the enthusiastic and friendly service and I think I have my new fav place in the neighborhood. Now I just wish we lived here. read more

Solid date night spot! I've never had beef caprice before, but it was pretty good appetizer! Very thin sliced raw meet with good seasoning on it! My meal was great! Meat was well cooked, mash potatoes were perfect (not enough though, wanted more!), and the broccoli was actually a little spicy which was cool. My girlfriend got the chicken and the meat looked like it was falling off the bone it was so tender! The bite i tried was delicious! She got to the middle of it though at one part and there was a little blood still and looked uncooked fully, but was still great! Overall, little pricy $$$ all in for 2 meals, app, and 2 drinks, but the place was really nice and food very good! 9.6/10! read more

I forgot to make reservations. One hour before dinner scrambling to get a table on a Friday night at prime time 7pm. We got in right away. The place was not very busy at all.

For entrees, we had pork shank, duck breast, ribeye and fettuccine. Everything was good. Not OMG this is the best thing I ever had good, but definitely a solid meal. Service was great! read more

This place was pretty tasty. We came for lunch and they had their brunch menu out. Their half pound burger was amazing. Would definitely recommend if you're here. My husband got the biscuits and gravy and those were very good as well. Both were very filling dishes. The service was ok. We had reservations yet they wouldn't let us sit further from the door to accommodate for a party that walked in right in front of us that the guy said they would be back shortly. Not very good customer service for parties that have pre made reservations with you. Also, the food took a while to come out even though the restaurant wasn't very busy. Overall, I would come back. Hopefully they change their customer service attitude though otherwise I probably won't be a regular customer read more

Hmmm... My girlfriend and I came here for brunch. Our reservations were for 11am but we got here a little earlier. No biggie. I ordered a Mimosa and my girlfriend ordered a Bloody Mary. Welp, they were out of Bloody Mary mix. At 10:30?! We wanted to share a savory and sweet dish; Biscuits and Gravy and the French Toast. Welp, they didn't have French Toast. Literally, our server was... "I just got here..." ‍ I've been so excited to have brunch here but, WHOA, huge disappointment. read more

Northeast Social - Biscuits & Gravy - New American Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

The food here is pretty good. I was generally happy with my Omelette du Jour, which was filled with spinach, mushrooms and a cheese blend that included ricotta. The potatoes were crispy, too. My husband's half-pound beef burger looked juicy (messy) from my seat, though the fries were utterly forgettable. That said, the music is too loud (on a Saturday morning) to hold a conversation. The service was slow and we heard the server complain a number of times that there were no reservations and she wanted to leave (it was about two hours after opening). Her attitude and the deafening jazz spoiled what could have been a nice brunch. The seating area has poor flow and moving people in/out was like trying to get out of a stadium seat. Don't hold the door, we're not coming back. read more

My wife and I had a $50 Living Social voucher at the Northeast Minneapolis establishment. It is right near the The Modern Cafe, which I also need to try out. There was only one other patron in the place and 4 women sitting outside. It was about 4:30. I ordered a Clown Shoes Galactica. So yummy! By the time we left about 5:30 though, the place was filling up. I really admired some of the artwork on the wall, very eclectic and cool! A big mural of a boat filled with people really caught my eye, and it was perfect decor for the low lit place. There was light jazz in the background that was perfect for the ambiance, Our waiter reminded me a lot of Vince Vaughn. Super nice guy though and very knowledgeable about the menu. We ordered a mussels appetizer and my wife got a baguette for $3, a little weird charging for some bread, but it was okay. She also got the soup of the day because it was a broth based one. He didn't mention there was some pork in it though, so I got to finish off about half of it. It was amazing! The lentils were perfectly split, and everything about that soup was perfect, even down to the little hunks of pork. The mussels came out and they were perfect, with two nice slices of sourdough. There were about 20 of them and I made my own little open faced sandwiches with them, with some diced up pork belly/bacon they had added a to the garlic flavored broth. The broth even made a wonderful soup after all the mussels were gone. Very solid app! I loved it. I ordered the rare tuna hoagie with fries as my main dish. The hoagie was chewy, but not doughy. Very fresh bread with lots of tomatoes and aioli and lettuce and a nice big slice of rare grilled tuna like steak. Not super flavorful, but all the toppings made for a wonderful sandwich. The fries were flash fried shoestrings I think, a little salty, but the perfect amount of crispiness. Our waiter was super cool and had no issue with our Groupon. I said how much I liked the dinner and he gave me a pat on the shoulder and gave an appreciative "Thanks!" Nice touch. I also got a bomber of Stone Arrogant Bastard Ale to go with the meal. What a solid beer out of San Diego County. Any time you see a Stone beer, know that it will be great! read more
