Food was absolutely delicious and we didn't even eat a steak! Patio is a beautiful setting. Romantic. But we had our toddlers with us. Sorry if we killed anyone's vibe. Staff accommodated our childrens' desire for milk. Drink container questionable for a 21 month old but we made it work and understood we were not getting a plastic cup and straw for obvious reasons. They have high chairs! Excellent wine menu. We were the first to enter the restaurant for the evening and the staff lined the walk to our table. It was like being in France (which we love fine dining in France). I would absolutely return to this restaurant if in town again.

Visited Minneapolis from the Washington DC area and of all the places we ate over a long weekend trip, Porzana was my favorite place to eat. Food was great, service was awesome, and the ambiance was a vibe (we sat on the patio). For food, I definitely recommend the natural oysters, tuna crudo, ribeye, and Caesar.

Yep, I think Porzana has become my favorite steakhouse in the Twin Cities. Why? Their range. They have a range of cuts from $40 - $300. This is perfect for whatever mood you're in. You don't want to splurge too much? Choose a steak more on the $40-$60 side. Sure, the size may be smaller, but it's still a solid meal. Want to splurge? You can also choose their higher end steaks. They have great cocktails, the service is solid, and the place is super nice. You definitely can't go wrong here.

Porzana in Minneapolis completely has my heart for an ideal date night. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by kind, attentive, and caring staff, making my experience extremely positive right from the start. The cocktails and food were nothing short of immaculate. I began my meal with the Chipas, a cheesy bread served with a spicy dip made from provolone and mojo picon. It was the perfect start to what would be an unforgettable dining experience. For my main course, I had the Prime Argentinian cuts steak called Entraña. This steak was incredibly juicy and flavorful, perfectly complemented by the chimichurri sauce. I ordered the steak medium, but the chef accidentally cooked it to medium well. Impressively, the staff noticed the error before I did and promptly offered me a second steak, cooked exactly as I had ordered. Their attention to detail and commitment to customer satisfaction truly went above and beyond. To accompany my steak, I ordered a side of Papas Aplastadas, which featured crispy potatoes with beurre blanc, parmesan, bacon, and chives. Every bite was a perfect blend of flavors and textures. The highlight of my evening was the Torina cocktail, which included Peruvian agave, arbol, strawberry, lime, tepache, and prickly pear. It was refreshingly unique and paired wonderfully with my meal. The ambiance at Porzana is delightful, making it an ideal spot for a date night or any special occasion. The spacious interior added to the overall pleasant dining experience. I cannot recommend Porzana enough. Everyone needs to go here and experience the exceptional service, delicious food, and lovely atmosphere. This place is now my go-to for any special night out in Minneapolis.

We returned to Porzana, but this time were compelled to dine at a table due to a full bar. With regret, we were led to a four top with a good view of the dining room. I was surprised to see a decidedly unfashionable room. Porzana is not attracting the hipsters from the North Loop, at least not on a Saturday night. Our regret at not finding a seat at the bar was wiped away by our server Nick. Some people are born with the ability to charm. Nick was amazing, understanding what we wanted, and he became a confidant while guiding us through our meal. With Nick's guidance we both ordered the Strip Steak aged in Gorgonzola. The steak was incredible and even my spouse, not a steak eater, was sighing with pleasure. Our sides of peas and whipped potatoes were sublime. Porzana's wine list is eclectic and interesting, but my cocktail was not Midwest strong. However, the gestalt of our dinner was fantastic. While the food tasted wonderful, Nick's personality turned our dinner into a cherished memory. To hell with sitting at the bar.

What a lovely night out in Mpls. I had heard this was ana awesome place and I had been tot he space when it was bachelor farmer. Wow. Amazing service with just the right mix of attention and information. We ordered steaks and appetizer and the chicken was amazing. The right mix of spices and sauces and meat. Our only wish was that the potatoes. Had more cheese all over. We will go back!

Second time here and what can I say this place is amazing. The food is delicious, the service is wonderful, and the ambiance is lovely for a date or formal dining experience. This has become one of my favorite places to eat in the north loop. The portions range from small plates to large servings to share. Trust me if you are looking for a lovely dining experience from start to finish you do not need to look further.

Absolutely wonderful dining experience! Definitely make a reservation because this place is popular, and for good reason. The place is medium-sized with a dark romantic and mysterious atmosphere. You may need a flashlight to help read the menu, but everything on it is delicious. There are plenty of wonderful options, and if you're torn on what to get, staff is very well versed and can give great recommendations. The portions are large/family style, so there's plenty of opportunity to share and sample. The cocktails are top-notch! We were there for a birthday celebration, and they brought out a complimentary dessert at the end. Small details like that just put an experience over the top. It's not a cheap place, but it is so worth every penny!

We showed up to Porzana at 6 with no reservation and the restaurant was packed but luckily they could seat us outside. We went before the twins game so I was dress in twins attire and I didn't feel too out of place outside. It's a warm and casual feel on the patio but even inside you can tell is elevated but a warm home feeling. Now for the food, it was truly AMAZING, the steak was perfect, gnocchi was great, but the mashed potatoes are the best I have had in a long time. I consider myself a potato connoisseur as well and these I would come back just to eat. Staff was also very friendly, price was honestly reasonable for what we got. The previous weekend we went to a steakhouse, paid triple the price but Porzana was way better.

Porzana is definitely worth a visit! I'm not a steak person, but after hearing many rave reviews, I couldn't resist a trip for dinner. It did not disappoint! We kicked off our meal with lots of starters. My favorite was the burrata. WOW. I would go back just for that! The Papas Aplastadas were nicely flavored and crunchy. The Caesar Salad was rich in a way I didn't know a salad could be. The best Caesar I've had. The drinks and the main, Mafaldini Estofado, did not disappoint. Overall, I had an awesome time and left with a full, satisfied belly. I highly recommend.
