Came here as a warm up before the tour of the Walker Art Center. I did not expect that the price was not expensive at all. Everything is awesome. Including me, three girls ended up ordered two cups of soup, four dishes and a pastry. We finished all of them! Nice environment, atmosphere, service and food.

Brunch destination. The Croque Madame was fantastic! Also recommend the French Toast, which comes with duck confit and fresh figs. It sounds like an odd combination, but it's spectacular. The quiche was also delicious, so rich and velvety. And they have cocktails so creative, they can only be served in an art museum. You don't have to pay to get into the museum to eat here, but the Walker is usually a good time and they now serve alcohol apparently, so it could be fun.

We had a table of 7 for brunch, and the service was great. The server described the dishes we were having trouble deciding between, which was pretty cool of her because we had a few them. And the food was amazing! I will definitely be going back for another brunch.

It's even better than pictured on Google Maps. Even in winter, when the trees are bare, you still get a good view on the sculpture park.Parking was easy to find in the garage. There's two entrances and both entrances lead to Esker but follow the bright lights and enter through the sliding doors. You don't need to pay in advance to exit. The exit gates take CCs as well.Menu is simple and their food is delicious and beautifully presented. Their French Toast was amazing and the Steak Frites is a yummy dish. Steak was cooked perfectly. Definitely want to come back during Fall and Summer to enjoy the view and try more menu items.

I met up with a friend before seeing a movie at the Walker Art Center. I highly recommend the trout and squash. Excellent!

WAY WAY too trendy and high brow for me. Beers that I can not pronounce. And all over 5 bucks.... But hey this is the big city I'm not complaining I sort of expected it.

Great place to grab a eat, even better for drinks before a walk through the museum or garden

One of the best patios in town; great view and the ambiance of the patio is perfect. Service is top notch, and the food is delicious as well. Cocktails are also amazing!

I have heard good things but apparently they stop serving food for kitchen cleaning....? and offer strange appetizers. Sandwiches don't require a kitchen to cook in, my guess is this time period is to have a buffer to offer higher priced items for dinner starting at 5pm.

Fantastic service (especially at the bar), very good food, but beware the "tiramisu" that gives no warning of what it actually is.

Best restaurant in the Twin Cities!

Food was good. My server was awesome! Sorry that I didn't have room for something sweet.

The staff was so good, so helpful. Our table was great. The croque madame was okay, kind of bland. The coffee was too heavy on the Colombian for my taste. Still, I would go again for the ambiance.
