Alpine burger
Heather R.

Red Cow is a staple for us. We've eaten at most of the locations around the city! We recently visited the Edina location for the Alpine burger. OMG, this did not disappoint. They use Raclette cheese for the dipping portion and it is so good. I would recommend sharing this burger as it is extremely rich and delicious! Our server was THE BEST. I'm so mad I've forgotten his name but we were ready to attend his family's Thanksgiving. What a fun night!!

Inside of Buffalo Chicken Wrap- I did no celery but this was delicious!!! Great flavor! Get a cup of the blue cheese to dip!

This was my second time to this location and both times, I was very pleased! The parking can be a bit tricky, depending on the day/time. The ambiance is relaxed, like you could get away with where a button down shirt or a dress, OR more casual with jeans. This would be a good first date spot! For my larger friends, there are tables as well and booths. It took the hostess a few minutes to realize I was there but she was very friendly. My waitress and the gentleman who brought my food out were truly delightful! So staff here was great! Food: GET THE BURRATA!! Oh my goodness, I was told this is a newer item! It's cool, creamy, fresh, with just a touch of salt! The bread was crispy but also soft. I truly enjoyed this dish as a starter! I got the buffalo wrap without celery. This has a bit of dill in it. A welcome surprise in flavor! Get a side of the blue cheese to dip! The truffle fries were crispy and had a light flavor! The Parmesan and chives really added to these! Definitely worth getting in my opinion! I'll definitely be back a third time!

The "ultimate burger" pink with lettuce, tomato, onion, substituting, white American for cheddar cheese, and adding a little yellow mustard may have been the best burger I've had. Certainly in the top 5 all time. The meat had great seasoning very flavorful and juicy. Highest recommendation! Burgers do not come with any side, which was fine by me. The grilled soup with tomato cheese was very good. And the breakfast burrito with pork Carnitas was delicious. Ambience was sort of a nice clean diner. One section has TVs to watch the Vikings during brunch. Service was good.

They've revamped their menu and are trying to move from a neighborhood burger place to be more of a "bistro". I'm not a fan of the move, personally. They shrunk a bunch of portion sizes and kept the prices the same by calling them "tapas style." Never mind that tapas are supposed to be dirt cheap/free to keep you around and drinking. On that note, they all but abandoned the beer program and don't really get anything interesting anymore. We used to go 2x a week for happy hour but between removing all the best dishes and the gutted beer menu it's not really worth the $1 off most t things that start over priced. The only exception being the HH sliders. They're really juicy and a good deal for $9. I miss the old HH buffalo cauliflower and lettuce wraps. Those were fantastic. Service and atmosphere haven't really changed so they're both great. Which makes it even more of a bummer.

Stopped here for a late dinner with a friend. The bar area was a bit busy so we opted to sit in the dining room. They also have a cute patio. I ordered the Pornstar martini and my friend got a cherry cola. My drink was good, very fruity tasting, came with a chaser. My friend didn't care for her pop at first because they use a sweeter syrup for the cherry flavor but she said once the ice melted and watered it down it was better. For food we got cheese curds, I got the So Cal (impossible burger) and my friend got the steak frites which came w/ fries. The food was overall good. The fries were a bit overcooked, crispy. The burgers do not come with any sides so it ends up being a bit pricey. Overall the quality is good though. The staff were super friendly and nice. Our waiter was very attentive and even noticed I didn't really touch my drink until after the food came (I hadn't ate much all day and need to eat before drinking) she asked if I liked my drink because if I didn't I could switch it out for something else, which was sweet. I did like it but just needed some food first. Parking in the lot is very tight. But there's street parking and a sign that says you can park in Wuollets parking lot after 6pm.

I love red cow it's been one of my favorite spots since they opened. The onion rings are what really stood out to me this time. Huge, perfectly golden brown crispy beer-battered rings!! They were so good. We had a side of fries to share too for the table. The 60/40 was good too it's a bacon burger essentially what's not to love?! I cut mine in half to eat the rest the next day. Service was great they were really attentive and somehow managed to keep up with my intense water consumption that day . So if you're by 50th and France check out red cow!

60/40 Burger
Jon L.

I was udder-ly in the mood for a burger so my friend took me to Red Cow, a Minnesota staple. I really enjoyed the 60/40 burger. The bacon mixed into the patty along with the candied bacon on top made for a really pronounced pork flavor, which I enjoyed. There was a little too much beer mustard but otherwise a well-executed burger. It's disappointing that they no longer offer fries with the dish, in attempts to upsell you on a premium side, but otherwise it's a solid burger with great service.

Quick review... have been to Red Cow many times (mostly their St Paul location, which was a go to for watching sports, brunch, etc when I had fam that lived near the Cathedral) Went yesterday to the 50th & France location for a quick post golf lunch & bev at the bar... bartender was super friendly, happy to change TV channels, chat about the game(s) & give good beer recs. The ambiance fits this grown up preppy area of SW Minne. Chicken club was excellent, and tater tots had a bit of peppery pop. Buddy loved the double barrel burger, which came highly recommended Will be back soon, def stop in when in the area and in need of a good burger/draft beer selection!

A great place in downtown Edina to grab a burger and beer! They do offer a lot more ... a full bar and a variety of dishes to whet your appetite beyond burgers! Great cocktails, especially the Bloody Mary! And fast and friendly service! A great casual dining experience with your friends or family!

Steak Frites.
Jas G.

Wonderful place. Peaceful ambiance! Service was great, Wish there was more food options.

We decided to try the Edina location as we had a gift card from management after a not so good visit to the north loop location. Started with the chips & onion dip and the cheese curds. Both were very good. For entrees we got the steak frites and chicken tenders entree. Steak was fantastic. Super tender, cooked perfect medium and delicious sauce. One of the best steaks we've had. Chicken fingers also very good. Perfectly crispy, huge portion and the dipping sauces are all very good. Both come with fries too which is nice as the burgers/sandwiches don't come with a side. Beth, our server, was super nice and attentive. Parking is a little tight in the lot but you can park on the street to. Edina is the best of all the locations.

Cheese curds
Rachelle S.

Went for happy hour and had really great service on their new patio! Food was really good but thinking they changed their cheese curds. They weren't as good as I remembered. Had the ahi tuna crisps, cheese curds, apple and Brie toast along with the 60/40 sliders but subbed garlic may for the sauce! The burgers were amazing!

Bloody Mary
Becca E.

We came here on a Sunday and surprisingly wasn't packed, it was around 1-1:30. We watched some football and ordered food in the bar area. It was quiet and decorated nicely for Christmas! Our server was great and took good care of us. The food was amazing and very reasonably priced for what you get! Double barrel burger 10/10 Amazing Bloody Mary with a full size beef stick Onion rings- newer menu item I believe- 10/10 Hot chicken plate- spicy and great flavor with good sauces!

When are you bringing back the Sticky Toffee Cake?

Hi Dan, If you're craving that Sticky Toffee Cake, you can find it at our sister restaurant Red Rabbit(Mpls & Stp). Otherwise shoot me a message at grant@redcowmn.com before… 

Where is the bison meat sourced? A friend thought it was the best tasting burger ever! I'd like to make some on the grill at home & simply want to know more!!! Is the bison farmed like cattle or roaming on prairie?

We no longer offer a Bison burger on our menu, when we did carry it we sourced it from North American Bison LLC, a farmers collective.

This place is a cash only place I think. Well, I've only paid cash when I come here for many many years there was a sign cash only. They might take credit cards now MAYBE I'm not sure but if they do they might charge you a kajillion dollars for the fees lol. Just pay in cash. Bring lots of cash cuz you're gonna want to try the double cheeseburger AND the famous Juicy Lucy. I don't ever get the juicy Lucy because it comes out to piping hot and I don't wanna wait 10 minutes to eat my food lol. Their french fries are just like McDonald's french fries but it taste a lot more fresh. It is so good. You're gonna want to get a full basket. There's always a line out the door so you gotta come here real early.

Luckily, there were only two people ahead of us, and we waited about 6-10 minutes. If you visit during peak hours, I'd definitely expect a longer wait. The menu is refreshingly simple Jucy Lucys, chicken sandwiches, grilled cheese, fries, and not much else. I ordered the original Jucy Lucy with pickles and onions, and we shared a basket of fries. It was a true no frills experience, and I can appreciate the significance of keeping things simple. Matt's embraces that hometown diner feel: burgers wrapped in paper instead of plates, drinks served cold & bottled instead of over ice, cash only (there's an ATM inside with a $2 fee), and a nostalgic atmosphere that feels uniquely Minnesota. The staff deserves recognition. Our waitress was friendly and patient, and it was clear everyone, from the bartender to the cook, was working incredibly hard to keep things moving. Their teamwork definitely didn't go unnoticed. As for the burger, I personally didn't think it was the best Jucy Lucy I've had, but taste is subjective, and I completely understand why it's considered a Minnesota staple. More than anything, I'm glad I finally crossed Matt's off my Minnesota foodie bucket list. As a proud Minnesotan, it's one of those iconic spots that's worth experiencing at least once.

The service was appropriately lowkey and prompt. Their food might seem a bit expensive, but their portions are generous.

The Parlour burger used to be thicker double patties but have gotten way thinner over time. Each…read morebeef patty is much thinner now than it used to be so the outter edge crisp is somewhat all throughout the patty being that thin. This makes the burger really chewy and you really can't taste the beef anymore like you used to when it was thicker. I would take this as it's not as good as it used to be. It is not as good as the original hype from the beginning. In conclusion, I do not think it's worth the $19. I rather get a cheesesteak for $16 at Tono's which comes with fresh not burnt fries rather than come back here and get a burger here. It's highly unlikely I will be back here. I honestly feel like the burgers have gone way WAY downhill. The fries here have gotten terrible so I stopped getting the fries a long time ago. They are not soft crisp like they used to be. They are too golden brown color, almost like burnt hard fries. I never like to eat down here. I normally would order the Parlour burger upstairs. The basement part which is Parlour has a weird smell like a locker room smell so that's why I don't like to eat down here.

I wasn't overly impressed but it was enjoyable and I appreciated what appeared to be an intentionally crafted meal. I didn't try the fries or soft serve so that's next time! I appreciated the salad on the menu and had that too! SERVICE: cool concept-- order at counter, then you get seated. It was efficient but far better than just a "fast food pickup" or traditional counter service restaurant. I also have to say-- efficiency was great. The line was long but was helped quick! PARKING: always hard in Linden Hill. Street parking in neighborhood nearby is the best. Plan for a 5 min walk. AMBIANCE: far better than a typical counter service restaurant but not quite a dine in restaurant feel. Still, I'd bring friends even if I wanted a dine in restaurant because they've done a good job at this concept.

You get west coast mid century modern that feels cozy and hip. The band played from 3-5 which I admit I originally thought was weird. But quickly realized why. This place was created for three reasons: good food, vibes, and family fun. You look around the room and EVERYONE is having a great time. Someone's Grandpa and grandma are having a blast on the Dance floor, kids are laughing, and everyone eating and truly having a wonderful time. The food was SO SO SO good. My husband got the pastrami ribs and I wish I had taken a photo because HOT DAYUM they were fire. And the coolest part about this place is they don't accept tip. Instead there is a surcharge so all employees can have a livable wage and that's so appreciated and you can tell by the service. Everyone we encountered had a genuine smile on their face. For the owners- my husband and I weren't sure if we wanted children and have been going back and forth about it for so long... but being in a safe family environment where fun and good vibes and inclusivity is possible- it hit us like a ton of bricks.

My bite was super cheesy. Lots of local beers to choose from. I found a nice hoppy one to try. Love the names but I always forget them. Service was great. You order with a QR code. Food came out quickly. We did have a server visit our table to answer questions and bring us anything needed after our initial order. He was great with giving us some recommendations. The restaurant charges a flat 20% service fee (so no tipping). Parking was a bit of an adventure as there seemed to be a lot of apartment parking on the streets and the lot was pretty small but we found a spot a block-ish away. Great stop!
