J.d. Hoyt's Supper Club - Minneapolis

Fun night out, you forget you are in downtown Minneapolis. Great service and food.

Vegetarian options: For my birthday dinner, I ordered the Cajun vegetarian pasta, Cajun catfish meal and two crab cakes. I did not enjoy the food as much as I did in the past. I'm unsure if the waitress was having a bad day but she was cold and unwelcoming.

JDs is great. Wonderful food and drinks, and wonderful people. Perfect way to start an evening before a Twins game or show. Valet service is a no brainer. Love the buddy bowl with grilled catfish. Steaks are awesome too. Pat, Annie, Jodi, Elaina, Erick, junior, Jim and the rest of the friendly crew provide wonderful service. You’ll leave happy.

JD Hoyt is the epitome fine dining! The food is amazing! Whether you choose Fresh and juicy salmon, or a thick mouth watering steak, you will be impressed with the detail in which they put into your meal! They have a great selection of white/red wine to enjoy with your lunch or dinner. The appetizers are even delicious! I recommend the cornbread with butter and syrup and the garlic cheese bread with the corn chowder…yes, that’s just an appetizer!!! The environment is classy, romantic, and cozy. This is a place where you can make reservations with your significant other and come dressed up or you can bring the family as it’s also kid friendly. The owner is really nice, he walks the restaurant speaking to patrons and genuinely making sure that you have everything that you need, he will also bring food to your table personally. You’ll be glad you ate here, you’re welcome in advance lol!!!

I had a wonderful meal at J.D. Hoyt’s sitting at the raised bar watching the NCAA Women’s semi-final basketball games. Junior was our server/bar keep, and he was as entertaining as the game. J.D. Hoyt’s is an urban supper club that’s as authentic as any of the supper clubs in rural Wisconsin. All the food is good, some dishes better than others, but you will always have enough to eat. Portions are enormous. My Wedge salad was the size of Uranus but tasted much better. The hickory chicken was delicious. J.D. Hoyt’s is not gourmet, innovative, or trendy, but that’s not their objective. They do what they do with aplomb. I’m in Minneapolis once a month, and I will visit J.D. Hoyt’s every time. BTW, if you’re at the bar, ask Junior about Lenny Kravitz. You’ll enjoy the stories.
