Very lovely lunch. I had the smoked bbq chicken sandwich, with no bun. It was tasty and the fries were excellent. It didn't need the cheese (I pulled it off) as the flavor kinda messed with the otherwise great meal. The service was excellent. The waiter swiftly removed a bread basket someone else had placed after I ordered a bunless sandwich. They could maybe use a few low carb options on their menu, but I had trouble deciding what to order, so they must be doing a few things right! The flatbreads have been a hit forever! read more

Twin City Grill - Bbq chicken sandwich, sans bun, with vinegar fries and cole slaw. - American Near Me - Bloomington, Minnesota

We stopped in here for dinner during an our trip to the MOA. It was highly recommended here on Yelp. The service was fast and great. I wish I could remember our waitress' name because she was so kind and helpful. My guy got the steak and he loved it. I got a chicken meal and it was decent. Because the place is so popular, it was very crowded in there in the back so that was a bit off putting. But as stated before the food was decent so I can understand. read more

Based on the crowds, this seems to be where mall goers come to eat, and for good reason. It's a warm, pleasant, large, rocking place. Nice draft beer selection, including a solid house amber. Blue cheese martini is strong and dirty, yup. Great rolls to start, though on our second night a less interested wait person skipped them on our table. Sad. I did the wild rice chowder, interesting and different, and I don't think I'd regularly order, but was glad I tried. Wife had the daily soup, a white chili, and loved it. The pan fried walleye is a hearty meal, especially accompanied by delightful chunky mashed taters. Very glad I had the opportunity to try walleye while visiting the area. Second dinner, we started with the spinach artichoke dip. The dip I could take or leave, it's fine I suppose, but the slices of garlic toast were sent by angels, truly delicious. I'd have a heap of those crunchy flavorful slices for a meal anytime. Not quite as hungry after devouring the appetizer, I did the wedge salad, a classic version, and the shrimp cocktail, fine, though a bit tired. Wife got the salt and vinegar fries to share with our salads, ordered extra crispy, and indeed they were really crispy and wonderful. Next time we're at the mall, we'll be frequenting Twin Cities again for sure. It does make a huge difference who your server is, one night was wonderful, and another careless and sloppy, and not all the dishes are 5 star, but, as the crowds can attest, it's popular for a reason. read more

This is a funny little hole in the wall in the mall of America that I went to but had never even noticed before. It is not around any of the food courts or some of the other groupings of restaurants but I believe is on the first floor. Overall I enjoyed my time here and definitely gave a chance to sit back for a bit and unwind. You don't even really feel Ike you're in the mall anymore. read more

Love that they still have the Tucci original baked lasagna. Great touch considering tucci has been closed for awhile

This meal was a lot better than i expected! The tenderloin tips were cooked exactly to my liking and the sauce that came with it was delicious. I also enjoyed my espresso martini a lot! The only downside was the complimentary bread wasn't very good, it tasted frozen and stale. The waiters were very friendly but when i asked a question about a certain dish they couldn't give me an answer. read more

Haven't been here in many years and once again, it did not disappoint. This place is in the old school category and the vibe is super chill. I was here solo celebrating a new job and ordered the twin medallions. They came encrusted with a tasty blue cheese topping and I had the fresh broccoli for the side. I was a little disappointed in the amount of broccoli but the filets were beautiful and were cooked perfectly. Dinners come with fresh rolls and those were delicious. I enjoyed a classic margarita with the meal-so delish! The wait staff and manager were super pleasant and friendly. Def recommend! read more

This is an oasis of quiet in the Mall of America. Our server Maria P. was helpful and friendly. At her suggestion we ordered the pan fried walleye which unfortunately was slightly overdone for our taste. The house made lemonade was wonderful. read more

What more can you ask for than consistent food. I have been here each time travel has brought me to Minneapolis and the food is always good. Don't sleep on the almond crusted Walleye, $32.95 for a platter size filet, it can easily be shared with two. Plus I think it's an unwritten rule somewhere that you must have Walleye when you travel to Minnesota. Service can be a little slow but you're at MOA take the time to people watch and you'll hardly notice. read more

If you're at the Mall of America and need a solid spot to go to it is Twin City Grill. Tucked away in the North Garden on the first floor, right by Nordstrom. From the moment you walk in, Twin City Grill gives off classic vibes. I went with the classic Twin City dishes. A cup of wild rice corn chowder, the state fair cheese curds, and the beer-battered Walleye sandwich. The chowder was tasty, the cheese curds were crispy, but the rest of the meal? It kind of fell flat. The Walleye sandwich didn't impress, and overall, I felt like it didn't quite hit the mark. The service was alright--it wasn't terrible, but there's definitely room for improvement. With better service and a more consistent meal, this could have been better than average. read more

Took my wife to one of her favorite restaurants for her bday. We've been coming here for years actually and for her birthday she could've gone anywhere she chose here. The customer service is ALWAYS on point. The setting reminds me of one of those old school places in NY that we love. We really come here for the spinach artichoke dip. If we bring our boys we have to place to two orders if it. IT'S THAT GOOD! The salt vinegar fries are always good and hot which I had with my cheeseburger. Wifey had the tuna melt which she enjoyed. Please come here and try the spinach and whatever else they have. This is a Twin Cities gem! read more

I went here last year and had a very nice dinner. It's a really cool atmosphere a nice staff very good food. I might go there again tonight. Sorry I don't have any pictures at the time. I was not doing Yelp. I recommend anyone going here. There is a lot for everybody to eat. read more

Forgot to check in last week, but my experience is exactly as it always is. I love the overall feeling of the restaurant. The service and food are always amazing. Currently my favorite restaurant in Minnesota. read more

Always a delight with friendly wait staff! It is noisy, so request the back room, but that doesn't detract from excellent food options. Had burgers and chicken sandwiches, all delish. I ordered the special today, Chopped Shrimp Salad with feta, tomatoes, dill, cucumbers, Kalamata olives, etc and a dill dressing. It was great and I had half for lunch next day! Forgot to take a pic . . read more

I was visiting for a wedding and one of the locals recommended us to Twin City Grill and I'm thankful they did. This place is located inside of the mall of America, but it's no mall food. Stepping inside, you forget you're in a mall and it feels like any nice steakhouse. The staff were all very nice and the food was so good. Prices are average, somewhat lower than what you pay for a good steak in most areas. If you look and my photos, I specifically ordered rare, so don't be turned away by that. Everything was cooked to perfection. 100% recommend. read more

The walleye is good (4/5), but it is pretty expensive for what it is. Others in my order got salads, which were ok (3/5), but overpriced. The service is good (4/5), and the interior of the restaurant is also nice (4/5). read more

Read great reviews and this place did not disappoint. We sat at the bar and were served immediately. Ordered a local beer and an espresso martini along with a flatbread and rice soup. Everything was so so good. If we were staying closer I would've gone back again since we enjoyed it so much. read more

Love TC Grill - it's a great place to stwp away from the hustle and bustle of MOA and relax at the bar, have a date meal or bring kids for a bite to eat. The food is always outstanding, service - consistently great, and drinks are generous with a great top shelf selection. The way we dine at TC Grill is - when our teens need a break from the rides shopping, we tell them to get us a table, and order what they want. We then leisurely make it to the restaurant, by then kids are already eating. We take time ordering, and by the time our food arrives, kids are done and take of to have more MoA fun. We then enjoy our dinner in peace and quiet, and settle the bill. Best tradition ever! :) read more

We visited for lunch on a Thursday. The pub-style dark woods and mood lighting make this place feel like a refuge from the bustle and glare of the outer wall. Service was fantastic. I enjoyed a cider from Sweetland Orchard while my husband had a Twin City Amber. The cheese curds were delicious, perfectly hot with a nice cheese pull, and served in a fun cup. I had one of the current specials, the asparagus and goat cheese flat bread, while my husband had the fish fry. Everything was delicious. This was a restaurant I'd gladly visit again! read more

If you are a sandwich person and feeling hungry, this is the sandwich I recommend getting. I came on an empty stomach and gave Twin City Grill's sandwich a go. Prime rib french dip was cooked well especially dipped in the sauce given and with the seasoned fries adding a zing to your tastebuds. Service were great and inside gave an old diner vibe. read more

Twin City Grill - Prime Rib French Dip* - American Near Me - Bloomington, Minnesota

One of the better restaurants in MOA, in my opinion, although, there don't seem to be too many sit-down restaurants left. On my last visit, I was surprised to see that they took over some of the previous menu items from Tucci Bennuch, so I got the baked spaghetti. I just love it - classic comfort food. I also like that you can get vinegar fries here. The space is larger than it would seem in the outside and service is fast and friendly. read more

Ambiance: amazing old school restaurant feel, we had a large party and got sat down quickly! Service: ok, feel like restaurant is not that busy but the waiter is not in sight for assistance. Whenever we asked for items, it was brought to us. The managers were way more helpful. Food: just ok and very bland. We had a large party so tried variety of different things. It feels very bland but overall ok. read more

We mostly had a good experience, but a couple of smaller things happened that made it a little less enjoyable. We are from Chicago so we are used to going to lettuce entertain you restaurants so I was excited to see there was one in the mall. I'll start with the good parts of our dinner. Our waiter was so kind and we really liked all of the food, it was alot of Midwest classics. I had a tuna melt and my husband had the smokehouse chicken sandwich and they were both great. The only weird things that happened were that I had requested a highchair on my reservation but when we got there, the host said there weren't any tables available that could fit a highchair so we had to use a booster. But then when we got seated, another staff person found us a table for the highchair. It just was weird that I requested it previously and they didn't try to accommodate it. And then, when we got our food, the server bringing it (not our main waiter), knocked the bbq sauce off of the plate and it spilled all over the floor. He just walked alway and never came back with another sauce, someone else cleaned it up but it was strange. Those two things just turned me off a bit because I don't think those would happen in the Chicago lettuce restaurants. But overall we had fun and the food was good but the service could use a little help. read more

We came here for dinner on a Friday night. I was shocked at how big the restaurant was. We were seated immediately even with it being prime dinner time. I ordered the walleye sandwich with a side of broccoli. The sandwich was REALLY good. The restaurant is very kid friendly too. Our server was nice, but I would say the overall service from her was slow. Other than that everything was good. They did have a nice dessert menu but we were too stuffed to try anything! read more

Twin City Grill - Walleye sandwich - American Near Me - Bloomington, Minnesota

Server was good once he showed up... but seemed to have a LOT of tables to take care of on his own. That being said, a much bigger disappointment was the $60 bone-in ribeye. Supposed to be cooked medium but overdone (see photo). AND I bet, based on the taste alone, that their steaks are frozen before they are thawed and cooked/grilled. It just wasn't nearly as fresh and yummy as I expect for a bone-in ribeye. On a positive note, the baked potato was great! Overall a bummer, especially for one of the few "nice" restaurants at MOA, but what can you do? I won't be back, which is sad because this restaurant had so much potential. read more

I tried and true restaurant that has stood the test of time. Always reliable with experiences wait staff. The chopped salad was delicious. The almond crusted walleye came out piping hot which unfortunately is an exception these days. Then we received a great chocolate cake for our birthday celebration. Definitely a go to without hesitation. read more

Went for a date night have had excellent experiences before. This time our server was more interested in talking at the host stand than serving us. We got our meals before bread and the waiter came right as we got our meals to give us bread but than never came back. We had to ask another staff for more bread. Our food was amazing as usual! Very disappointed in the service received. read more

This is my first time visiting The Twin City Grill and I am glad I took the recommendation from a family member to try it! Based on my craving for a sandwich, our server suggested I try the BLT. It ended up being probably one of the best BLT's I've ever had! I bacon was sweet and crispy and the bread was perfect (not soggy at all). The salt and vinegar fries were a great touch to round everything out. I found our server to be very personable and helpful. The restaurant itself was quiet and had a great overall feel. I would love to return someday and try their wild rice chowder! read more

Very poor service. Had the French onion was less than average. Diner vibe with not great service.

I was meeting a friend on a casual Friday at the Mall of America. We've known each other for years and it's about time we hung out in person vs online. We decided beforehand that we'd have lunch here at the Twin City Grill at the Mall of America. I arrived here via uber around 10am and waited for my friend at the East entrance at the Starbucks. We ended up killing time walking the mall before heading to lunch @ Twin City Grill. We have a reservation, but basically we did not need it because there was plenty of room and we got seated immediately. We got a booth. Menu was kind of limited, but they had basically what those people were find at a restaurant that serves anything grilled or flame broiled. My friend and I spent about 45 minutes here from initially entering the restaurant to paying. The ambiance was cool and quite quiet being inside the Mall of America. It was nice to not hear the kids, or anyone screaming on the rides they had there. I believe I ordered their burger and my friend ordered a salad. They gave us complimentary bread sticks, which was good and delicious. The burger itself was quite good since I ordered it rare. Rare burgers are awesome and cooked just right. The fries they gave me was good and delicious. I opted for water this time around. Best to celebrate later, I guess. The overall experience here at the Twin City Grill at the Mall of America was quite nice and could be used for dates and such. For myself and my friend, it was a casual meal as friends who had known each other for years but never met in person. I ended up treating my friend since it was the right thing to do. I enjoyed the ambience. It was worth traveling to Minneapolis to meet up with my friend. The restaurant itself was beautifully decorated with the decor that shapes the Twin Cities, the Mall of America, and the surrounding community it serves. The restaurant is self clean and very immaculate. The food was good and definitely would consider coming here if my travels in the future permit me to do so. Though the service was good and it was a nice choice for a Friday lunch in Minneapolis. I guess the Mall of America was a good meet up spot and, it proved to be good because I ended up picking up dinner elsewhere in the Mall so I did not have to look elsewhere later on that day. While the Mall of America does do familiar and the Twin City Grill does offer some comfort food pairings, you can't go wrong with what they offer. It's great for lunch and dinner while shopping at the Mall of America. Could be that hidden gem you want in the heart of Minneapolis. The Twin City Grill is located on the 1st level of the Mall of America in Minneapolis, MN. The mall itself is physically located at 1245 Mass Avenue, Minneapolis. They accept major credit cards as well as cash. As far as parking goes, they do have plenty of parking garages and street parking where you can find it. During this visit to the Twin City Grill, I used Uber to and from the mall of America. Pretty sure that there is public transportation to and from the mall itself, but I felt that Uber or left was the fastest way to go for the most part, though, This visit to the Twin City Grill was very good and also very average as well. The food is great, but the service is typical and Franny as well. So, if you feel yourself shopping at the bottom of America here in Minneapolis, Minnesota you can check this place out. It may be the alternative to the food courts that are here. Plus you can get a pretty mean burger versus the other options. You can find at the food court here at the mall of America. I'm sure you can get alcohol here too. Must be over 21, of course. Too bad that I did not get any alcohol, but it was nice to gab with my friend that day. If you want different while still being at the Mall of America, consider Twin City Grill. The menu is limited and the prices are a little of a stickers shock but it is what it is. Welcome to 2024. 4.0 stars for the overall experience 3.0 stars for the price and limited menu. 4.0 stars for the service and food. 4.5 stars for the location and ambiance. Support local!

This is our "camp out" place when the teens have unlimited ride wristbands and we have a lot of time to spend. We love the space - like a Las Vegas super club. We usually sit at the bar and sip on wine, but this time we ordered lunch. They pay a lot of attention to their sauces and dressings, which as you know, makes or breaks simple foods. I don't normally love a salad, but their dressings are so light and tangy. The smokehouse chicken sandwich was also a hit with crispy onions, bacon, and a nice sauce. Service is usually really casual here and they make you feel unrushed and at ease. read more

I'm in town for work and coworkers wanted to check out the mall - and we've been obsessed with cheese curds and this place had them! So really easy decision for dinner. (Also there was a bet made and one coworker lost in saying that the mall wouldn't have anything that had cheese curds and as a result... we got free cheese curds on him hehe). We got there around 6pm on a Friday night and were seated in about 15 min with a group of 5. Service was fantastic - there have definitely been other restaurants we've been where they barely check in on us or check on us too often. Our server was observant and had perfect timing. For appetizers, we got 2 orders of the cheese curds based on yelp photographs. The cheese curds come in little cans(?) which make them look small, but there is still more than you would expect (they manage to pack it down). With a group of 5 though, 2 orders worked perfectly. Batter was perfectly salty and the side of ranch worked surprisingly well. I highly recommend! I got the walleye fish fry with a side of the salt n vinegar fries - basically, fish and chips. It also came with a side of coleslaw (tasty!). Fries were excellent but I almost wish that salt and vinegar flavor had been on the fish itself. Fish was well cooked. I also enjoyed the spicy Margarita (or two!) Coworkers enjoyed the Mediterranean salad and the desserts (key lime pie and apple pie). I was stuffed but I am taking their word for it! read more

We had our doubts, since it's inside a mall, but we LOVED our service and the excellent food at Twin City Grill! The portions were huge, and we definitely ordered too much food--our eyes were definitely bigger than our stomachs! I had a perfectly cooked medium bacon cheeseburger, side salad and asparagus--way too much food, but all of it perfectly cooked and amazing. We also shared loaded mashed potatoes and spinach artichoke dip, which was soooo good. We all definitely ate too much, but left feeling full and content! read more

We took food to go because we really wanted to try Wild rice soup here in Minnesota, we've heard it's a local dish and that wild rice is used often here. The wild rice soup was really good. It was a bit watery but not too watery and the flavors inside were so good that it didn't matter because each spoon full was flavor packed. Luckily you could still taste the cream sauce so it was right on the edge of too watery but still had enough consistency to make that texture transparent Since we got a to-go order we can't comment much about the service. But I can say that they allowed someone to answer the phone who doesn't know the menu or the restaurant policy, they were trying to tell us they couldn't take our to go order until we asked to speak to someone else. They were only 20 mins from closing so I give them a pass but they should still have someone answering till like 5-10 before closing I feel. The ambiance is nice but nothing particularly special. It's a pretty nice slightly above average looking place. The cheese curds we're kinda meh. They were salty, and the ranch sauce it came with was low quality and salty as well. Which is why I took a star off and gave them 4 stars. The curds are 2-3 star tasting while the soup was a solid 5. read more
