We were hosting a small family gathering pre-Christmas show. Zelo was the perfect ‘appetizer’! It’s our favorite Minneapolis restaurant and never fails to impress. Food is delicious, ambience perfect and a special thank you to our server Erica who was the perfect mix of attentive without being intrusive.

Our favorite anniversary spot has been with this melting pot for the part couple years. This particular night they ran out of bread for the cheese course. But they went above and beyond to make that up and make our anniversary special. The manager and our server were both amazing people. 10/10 recommend

My fiance and I both stayed at the hotel and ate at the restaurant, both were fantastic. I had the salmon and my fiance had the filet mignon and we would recommend both. The staff were very friendly, efficient, and very kind about my food allergy. We loved it and plan to go back!
