Best Steakhouses in Downtown St. Paul

Fantastic food - loved my steak and my wife loved her burger. Sushi was great as well. Neat interior - very sophisticated feeling. Service got pretty slow towards the end of the meal but that's fine - we loved it!

Thank you Butcher’s Tale for making my birthday so special! First off, our server Meesh (sp) was an absolute gem. She was friendly, knowledgeable and her attitude was confident yet casual. As a queer couple, sometimes we get treated weirdly but Meesh was absolutely excellent and welcoming. The server assistants were also top notch and very attentive. The food was immaculate! The pork chop was roughly the size of a king mattress and I have no idea how the kitchen managed to cook such a mighty chop to absolute perfection. My steak was one of the best I’ve ever had and the key lime pie almost made me cry tears of joy, and yet I despair I will never again find its equal. We will we back! Also I don’t drink anymore but the whiskey list was very impressive! Thank you everyone!

From start to finish, this was an excellent meal. Brian, our server, was attentive but not overbearing. Our party of two shared a New York Strip (excellent, such amazing flavor, and perfectly cooked), hashbrowns (excellent), and a caesar salad, which they kindly split for us. The bread was warm and plentiful. We had soda as we don't drink alcohol, and the bill was 108 dollars which was a steal for the quality of food, service, and ambiance. We even had leftovers to bring home. We will be back. Thank you!

Had one of my favorite servers, Ken A., again. It is always an extra treat when I am lucky enough to be seated in his area before a theatre show. Excellent suggestions and service each and every time! He’s super fun, too!! Thank you!!

801 is a must when I visit Minneapolis. The food and service are always top notch. And Patrick did an excellent job navigating a unique situation. Two in our party were very delayed. I ordered for them, and our meals arrived soon after the rest of our party. The service was very efficient without feeling rushed. Another great experience.
