For a hotel restaurant, we were very pleasantly surprised at how nice the place was. We had one…read moredinner and two breakfasts while there. All were very good, tasty, and satisfying.

There were still some things we really enjoyed, though, and I'm glad we gave it a try. We started with the French Onion Soup, which was one of my favorite parts of the meal. I loved that they used croutons instead of one giant piece of bread. Much easier to eat--no fighting with a giant bread raft to get to my soup! The flavor was really nice too. I had the Bolognese Pappardelle, which was good, and my partner really enjoyed his Hanger Steak. He also tried the Garlic Herb Mushrooms, but those weren't really his thing. I ordered the N.A. Lela Punch, and that one surprised me. I wasn't sure about it at first, but it grew on me as I drank it. Apparently we just needed a little time to get acquainted. Dessert was an adventure. I decided to try the White Chocolate Panna Cotta because I'd never had panna cotta before. It was beautifully plated, but this is also how I learned panna cotta has a Jell-O-like texture... and I do not like Jell-O. That's definitely a me problem rather than a criticism of how it was prepared. At least I can officially say I've tried panna cotta! I ended up trying the Crème Brûlée as well. Unfortunately, that wasn't my favorite either. I usually love crème brûlée, but I prefer the custard very smooth and creamy, and this one was thicker than I personally like. My partner had the Chocolate Molten Cake and thought it was okay, but it wasn't a favorite for him either. Overall, Lela had some definite highlights--the French Onion Soup, Bolognese Pappardelle, and Hanger Steak especially--but we also had a few misses. I can understand why other people really enjoy it; it just wasn't quite the restaurant for us. And hey, every restaurant adventure can't end with a new favorite. That's half the fun of trying them all!

I have been going to Matisse (the owner) for the past 5 years so when she opened the brick and…read moremortar I was so excited to see her services grow. If you're looking for diverse estheticians this is the place to go. They can offer helpful information for all skin types but also for people of color which is hard to find in MN. I see Matisse every 2-3 weeks for my lashes. She offers packages for lashes which I love since I get them done so often. I have always been complimented on how natural my lashes look and that's because Matisse does an amazing job at giving the customer what they want! From lashes, to facials and waxes- check out this lovely business! Please note that she is now located on Lake Street and goes by #FACE the website is now https://faceoflelas.com

The entire experience from beginning to end was everything I needed. The room was clean, the ambiance was calming and, and the quality was top notch. It was a pricey experience, that I chose, but I definitely got my money's worth! I was so pleased with my experience that I booked another appointment before I left. :D P.S. I was running late (due to my own negligence and over scheduling), and called ahead to let them know I would be 10min late. They were so kind and understanding. Parking in uptown can be such a hassle, but it's not nice that they have free parking in the back of the building.

Definitely underrated and would recommend this if you are in the area, and ESPECIALLY if you are staying at the Doubletree.
