Best Comfort Food Restaurants in South St. Paul

I walked over from my hotel as I was staying over before flying out the following morning. It was the day after Christmas and it was BUSY. The food was good. I’m had the chicken pot pie. The ambience was a bit loud because of the holiday - but I don’t fault the restaurant. I mean I would definitely come again next time I’m in Minneapolis. It’s also across from Mall of America

Didn't realize that this is the hotel bar. However, after finding some easy on-street parking, our group welcomed a quiet place to gather and share some interesting non-overpriced food and non-stingy drinks before seeing a show at the Ordway. Service was perfect.

Sam was a terrific server My grandson , college student , said the short ribs were the best he had ever had and the serving was a perfect size. For me my go to is the healthy bowls and change up the protein Occasion was as a family get together as son and grandson are here for the holidays

This was a Christmas celebration dinner, our aunt and uncle were very impressed with the ambience, service and food. The restaurant was very crowded, but not too noisy. The pork chops were tender and delicious. A very generous serving. The shrimp and scallop pasta was also generous, fresh and lemon-y. The popovers were a perfect first course. The steak salad dish was prepared rare and perfect. The walleye taco bowl had the right amount of spice, sauce and veg. We ordered the bread pudding to share, it was massive, the 4 of us tried but could not finish it. Hazelwood does not disappoint, we can count on it for a warm, laid back, delicious, attentive experience. Highly recommend

Most lobby restaurants are not the greatest experience. The Milwaukee, however, was a pleasant surprise. From a gracious hostess to a joyful waitress, to a very, very good meal for the four of us. The only food negative was a relatively bland dressing on the Caesar salad. T”My pappardelle was outstanding and the others felt the risotto, burger and salmon were very fine.
