Our butterpoached walleye was just ok. The sides were super skimpy. Everything else was good...especially our server Courtney, who was a gem.

Food was good, but they did not stagger the order so our entrees came out before we were even half way through our apps.

We had a wonderful dinner. Our server Allie was amazing. She was super friendly, knowledgable about the menu and the wine, and just a really delightful server. A real people pleaser. We both had the butter poached Walleye which was excellent. We shared a roasted beet salad with goat cheese and mandarin oranges with candied walnuts! Everything was great, we'll be back again!

Hi John, Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We’re thrilled to hear you had a wonderful dinner and that Allie made your experience extra special with her knowledgeable and friendly service. We look forward to welcoming you back soon.

Two comments: 1. Service was outstanding. Our server was Curry (sp?), who made us feel special 2. We took advantage of the Restaurant Week menu, which was a bargain ($55pp). I think at those low prices, the three courses could be more of a tasting menu than full-sized portions. We'll be back!
BrevaResponded on 20 July 2026
Hi James, Thank you for joining us for Restaurant Week! We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed your overall dining experience and that our team made you feel so well taken care of. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the Restaurant Week menu. We can't wait to welcome you back soon!

I ordered the braised short rib that tasted like it had been boiled: it had no flavor, was gray, and dry and no juiciness. I asked for more “sauce “, but got some more broth. The chocolate cake seemed also to be a bit on the dry side, but was fair. The apple and burratta was interesting, not bad. Our server was attentive and was trying to plesse.
BrevaResponded on 20 July 2026
Hi Stephen, Thank you for your review. We’re sorry to hear that the braised short rib and chocolate cake didn’t meet your expectations. We also appreciate your notes on the apple and burrata, as well as recognizing your server’s attentiveness. Your feedback gives us clear areas to refine, and we’ll be working on improving consistency in flavor and preparation. We’d value the chance to connect with you directly to make things right. If you don’t hear from us soon, please feel free to reach me at 612‑353‑6207 and ask for Julianna Nelson. – Julianna Nelson, General Manager

Marginal food for the price. Good Service. Walleye dry.
