What a fabulous experience! The flavors were quite wonderful - the calamari was honestly a bit cold like it had been sitting for too long before it got to our table but the flavors were amazing! The sea bass was phenomenal! 10/10. The lobster special was odd and was quite underwhelming. There seemed to be more cheese/corn rather than lobster meat. I also was curious as to where the claws were? 🦞 the margarita was delicious as was the Autumn mule (it was like fall in a cup!) service was great as well.

The service was absolutely amazing. 4.5 ☆ if I could give half stars. One of my best dining experiences service wise so far. The building, decor, and atmosphere is beautiful. They even have nice bathrooms. We ordered bread is life, a burger with sweet potato fries, and some nachos. The sauces for the bread and the fries were to die for! I wanted the prime rib sandwich but they were out (reason for the 4 star rating). I plan on returning and getting steak.

I want to say this is hands down one of my favorite places to visit. The ambiance, the food, the staff. Everything is 100%. I celebrated my birthday in February and it was the best birthday ever. My friends also love this place and we always go back for special events. Keep doing the good work. Let me say it again, the food is AMAZING.

Had my first experience at Baldamar with the Sunday Brunch ($34.95) to celebrate me and my sister's birthday. First I must the ambiance here is very pleasant and has the fancy vibe, but not pretentious! A perfect middle ground of that fine dining experience imo. As for the food at the Sunday Brunch... Amazing. While not a huge amount of items (about 10 items + pasta and dessert bar), all the items are high quality and something you'd expect to be served as an entree! The staff did a great job keeping an eye and refilling the food items. Servers were very nice and accommodating. They even brought my sister and I a birthday coupon($15) and a peanut butter caramel pretzel ice cream which was delicious 😋 Would recommend to anyone wanting a better Sunday brunch experience and I'll definitely be back to try their lunch and dinner times. (love the bathroom signs)

Although very spendy, I was were pretty much blown away by the service and food. Our apps were really good ( fancy French fries and some delicious bread), sorry I don't remember the names! We were celebrating a birthday and we had crab salad, salmon, chicken. All were very good. Our server, a young guy was attentive but not overly. He did an excellent job. None tried the steak because of the prices but maybe next time. Very nice atmosphere. Its a great place for a special occasion. Oh and the desserts, wow. The chocolate cake and Key Lime Pie 😋

Yesterday was my first time visiting Baldmar and my experience was BEYOND amazing!! Renee I believe his name was, is an amazing waiter. He is extremely attentive and helpful. He made my friend and I feel comfortable and he casually engaged in conversation to see what we might be interested in, as far as food choices. Everything we ordered, he explained it thoroughly and waited in case we had questions. The food was amazing! I am a very picky eater and the food here was 5 star! The presentation of the appetizers was perfect! The temperature of the food was just right as well. It was overall an amazing experience and I would definitely recommend this place to everyone! The only con is the pricing. It is definitely one of the most expensive meal I've ever paid for; my bill alone was over $120 however, it was 100% worth it.

Asena Kok Yucebilgic

Very nice atmosphere, one of the best services. The food is delicious. Portions are big. I have been for lunch. We had 2 appetizers for 4 people to share (tuna poke and bread plate- both were amazing), then half sandwich half salad and I was full and had to take a box for the half of the sandwich. The breads are so good! Highly recommend for a nice indoor dining experience.

Erin Nicole

I went there yesterday for my first time. Our server Jennifer made it the best experience. She had supreme customer service! I was slight stuffy and craving a hot toddy and made me a make it your own! Brandy she picked was perfect. We started with oysters and calamari. Both were fresh and amazing flavor. I have never tried a tuna poke bowl and this was so flavorful with light chips. We then got the ribeye Oscar way and Brussels sprouts! Brussels sprouts were to die for! Amazing food and perfect service. I’ll be back soon!!!

Honie Windom

The food is very good, spending, but matches the vibe. Its a loud place just from the amount of people having thier own conversations. We had the buffet for brunch. I can not eat eggs, but there was other things I could enjoy. My favorite part was the pasta chef. He makes your dish right in front of you. A good people person he was.

JIPortillo

This is simply one of the best and finest restaurants in Minnesota. I have been wanting to come here since I saw it on an instagram food page I follow. They had posted about it when it opened. Their pictures and review made me want to come here ever since. I was not disappointed. Everything about this restaurant fulfilled and exceeded my expectations! From the ambiance and nice servers to the great food menu and portions. Everything about this restaurants was spot on! My only regret is not coming here sooner. Valentines ended up being my first time for my girlfriend and I. She was even impressed with the restaurant. Will definitely be back again soon!

Steph Lang

I am so glad that we finally decided to come here. The Appetizer Bread is Life was so good. The Honey Jalapeno Butter was AMAZING! I am not sure what the middle one was but that was delicious as well. I ordered the Crispy Cajun Chicken Sandwich, the chicken was perfect. Still juicy and it had an excellent cruchiness to it. My husband ordered the Big Easy Sandwich. The fries are excellent, the only downfall to both sandwiches are that they are messy. So ladies wear your hair back. I ordered a drink called, The Painkiller and it definitely lives up to its name. We had a wonderful experience here from the food, to the service. We received everything surprisingly fast, and I loved that other servers came to check on us and take our dirty dishes away. Will come back on the future.

First time visiting for Sunday Brunch Buffet (until 2PM) and I already can’t wait to come back! Sleek decor and very lively environment. The servers were on point and very friendly, never had an empty mimosa (GET THE BOTTOMLESS) or water glass 👌🏽 food was phenomenal! Plenty of options to choose from. The prime rib was my personal favorite. It’s really hard to find a buffet where everything is good. I’m definitely coming back soon to see what dinner is about.

I truly enjoyed my time at Baldamar. The ambiance is absolutely beautiful. The staff was friendly which was awesome. Since it was my first time I ordered several appetizers, a meal and a drink. My favorite was the Painkiller cocktail, Fresh Oysters and the Honey Sriracha wings! I also ordered the Roasted Cauliflower, Ahi Tuna Nachos and Lobster Roll add Bacon which fantastic with truffle fries.

Caroline Kawino

Birthday celebration with the family. Good service, good food, would definitely return to celebrate another occasion! Pictured from left to right: Filet Mignon (8oz) Spicy Bacon Lobster Mac & Cheese Sweet Potato Fries (battered… wasn’t a huge fan) Layered Tropical Cake When booking before dinner on the weekend be advised that you can only have brunch as that the only menu served at that time. I made a reservation online, called and confirmed the date, time and other details still the was no confirmation that they’d only be serving brunch, until we were ready to order.

For six people, we ordered $400+ worth of food which included couple of apps, steaks, fish, sides, and bread. The calamari app was my favorite app we ordered. Steaks were pretty good - nicely seasoned. My favorite cut was the rib-eye. The sides we ordered (brussel sprouts, mashed potatos, and mushrooms) were delicious as well. Service was good - our server was very tentative and nerd out on the menu 😅. Overall, a pretty good steakhouse.

Chris Valenty

The brunch buffet had a lot to offer, in terms of variety and quantity. But not much selection for vegetarians & non-pork options. Good selection of breakfast favorites such as Eggs Benedict, along with a Pasta Bar & Prime Rib. Even though there was a lot to choose from, none of the dishes really felt like something I would want to order off a menu again. Just lacking in flavor, for example, the Paella was really bland. For the price ($34.95), I did not think the brunch buffet would be worth going back for. Only a one-time experience for me.

Trypp Adams

Stopped in for a weekend lunch happy hour. The burger was fantastic, I went with a double which was bigger than I expected, a single suffices. Fries where enough to share. Atmosphere and interior is done extremely well. Parking is a bit of a challenge as mall parking seems to monopolize the parking spots. Will need to return to try some steaks!

Barry Thao

My friend D and I visited Baldamar on a Wednesday evening, about 6PM, wasn't too busy, got seated right away. They do have outdoor seating. The atmosphere is nice. The service was great. They took our drink order right away and checked in regularly to make sure we were good. The steak and scallops were cooked perfectly-10/10. The calamari was lightly breaded, had a nice sauce to it 9/10. Clean bathrooms.

Michelle Y

Went with a group of 8 and the steak was perfect! They were featuring 8oz wagyu beef so we ordered that as an appetizer. The tuna poke and the bread of life appetizer was good, I wouldn’t recommend the brussels sprouts, mushrooms or the mash potatoes for the side dish. Truffle dipped fries is a must if you have room. All the entrees were perfectly cooked and everyone left very satisfied and full. We ended the night with lavender crème brûlée which I thought was a little too sweet and also the 50 shades of chocolate cake which was a bit dry. Service was phenomenal! I don’t remember the waiters name but he was very funny and attentive. Definitely would recommend this place if you want some good steak without driving downtown.

Weslande Jean Baptiste

Celebrated my boyfriend’s birthday here. They were great with accommodating for the number of guest we had! They even allowed us to bring a cake and place it in the fridge for us. They took great care of us and had an amazing experience, so much so I forgot to get more pictures. The drinks…the food, Everything was 10/10!

Jen Xiong

Miso sea bass is a must try. The scallops were tender as well. I would highly recommend this restaurant. It is a little pricey but the quality of the food is well worth it. Plus the brunch options on Sundays is another must try.

Karmen Silewski

Absolutely outstanding SERVICE! The food was amazing, menu refreshingly unique, vibe elegant yet not pretentious. I cannot wait to come back. Exec Chef Steve visited our table, server Amanda both STAR players. Made us feel like royalty. Class act all around!!!

Jeff Storms

This place is absolutely lovely. They know how to cook a steak, their servers are knowledgeable, their drinks are phenomenal and some unique. I will most certainly be coming back again soon!

Jay Tee

Overall experience was great! The calamari was delish! Cesar salad was amazing, its not just an ordinary cesar salad, there’s something in it that made it so delicious! I got a miso Seabass, the fish melted in my mouth, however, the sauce was a little salty though. For non-alcoholic drinkers, I love the “red drink” (forgot the name of it 😂). My friends and I are planning to go back again and will definitely try something else.

Csaba Andrasfi

Always a good experience at Baldamar. We typically sit at the bar or the bar area since we are not the best at planning ahead (they book up pretty quick for dinner reservations). We had a friend book a reservation this time and sat in the main dining room area. The server was super helpful and explained many of the dishes on the menu in deep detail (without us asking). We have had quite a few dishes on the menu and have never been disappointed. For sides, the Truffle Fries and the Cauliflower are a go to for us. We have tried different steaks, the sea bass, and even the burgers... it was all amazing. Definitely recommend for a high end, up beat restaurant in the area.

Dan Schultz

First time visiting and already thinking this could be on my favorites list. I had a Cajun chicken sandwich with amazing fries which was messy but very tasty. We ordered the Bread of life, Brussels Sprouts, and a spicy char grilled street corn for some appetizers. I say yes,yes yes, check this place out.

Sia Her

Wow! Came here for my birthday dinner and it did not disappoint! The food was on the pricier end, but worth every dollar and bite! Their fresh oysters and steak is a must try! The ambience was chill and laid back even though it was busy. Definitely returning for another special occasion!

Andrew Auchampach

This place is amazing. A one of a kind place with localy sourced products that shows a thought of supporting the community they serve. The design and layout of the place can only be described as classy. The meal they serve is as satisfying as the feeling of walking threw those over-sized doors. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu and all our questions. He made every effort to accommodate us in all regards; thanks dude my mom realy liked the fifty shades of chocolate. I will definitely recommend this establishment to those I know, and I will be visiting again soon.

Danielle Romanowski

Modern & beautiful place with excellent food presentation, great service & variety on their menu. One less star just for high prices. Crab salad had romain lettuce under cuc slices. Even though high priced, I will be going back as it feels good to treat yourself/others to the other perks that are important to an excellent experience. Would give 4.5 if could.

Stinky Moe

I've been here a few times now and have eaten almost every appetizer now. I wish I took pictures of everything! The first time I went I was just so impressed with the professionalism of the server and knowledge. The old fashioned was terrific! I have always stuck with the sea bass and my other half gets the ribeye (always cooked perfect! I know it sounds so simple but the bread and butter is amazing (especially the jalapeño butter which is not spicy for you Minnesota spicy people). The elote dip (probably spelled that wrong, it's a play on Mexican corn) was a recommendation by the server and it was awesome! The oysters are good and when we went there were two different kinds. Some friends had the chicken which they loved. The scallops are always cooked perfectly as well! They are so great about getting dishes out of the way for you and they will box anything up for you. The wait staff is always so polite and have wonderful personalities. My absolute favorite restaurant!

Jeremy Weimer

Went for restaurant week. Great experience, even with our baby. The service was good and attentive. The food was very good. Cool ambiance. Would definitely go again.

Jake Neurer

Had a phenomenal experience for my anniversary. They were able to seat us right on time with our reservation and sat us in a perfectly lit booth. The interior is inviting and open with what looked like a separate event room. JB was our waiter and I cannot say enough great things about his service, a true professional. Extensive knowledge of the restaurant and both menus (cocktails & food). He nailed the smoked old fashioned presentation. I also enjoyed the Oaxacan old fashioned with that hint of coffee for a nice change. The bacon lobster Mac n cheese was my kind of spicy and the street corn with chips were super flavorful. Probably had the best ribeye of my life (my girlfriend seconds that) in addition to the short rib. The short rib was on the sweeter side with flavors of tamarind & mango. It was a nice contrast to the steak. Both were prepared with no complaints. We ordered the lavender creme brulee and it did not let me down. Cannot wait to go back!

Ceecee Vang

Great customer service. Oyster were 4 dollar each so not worth it for me however it was still good. Loved the Brussels sprouts, calamari, and Salmon was also good. Been wanting to come here and expectations were high! I am please to say it was a good experience. Food was amazing.

Mark Suchy

I walked in with no reservation. Sat at the bar without a wait. Had an old fashined, ribeye steak, baked potato, and asparagus. All were done perfect and delicious. I plan on bringing friends later this week because I know we won't be disappointed.

Catherine Trast

Our first visit to Baldamar & it was spectacular...shared 5 appetizers and each was outstanding. Delicious, perfect temps, unique power flavors... cauliflower au gratin was superb! Scallops - Wow! Street corn - hands down the favorite! Tuna poke is out of this world! Calamari so good! Excellent & attentive Service by Jenny. We will be back! Thank you!

So this has been one of the most positive experiences in a while. We made a trip here to try out the food and upon walking in we were greeted and seated immediately. There was no waiting or any funny business. We then sat down and were greeted again by our server Joel. Joel was ver charismatic and friendly and best of all he was a fellow foodie. He went over the menu and explained everything clearly. We got to speak to Joel a bit and loved his attitude and his customer service skills. Joel was possibly one of the best servers we have had in a long time. We started our order with the artichokes, oysters, baccon and scalopes. The artichokes were divine omg the flavor and tenderness in them were beyond what words can describe. The source was very flavorful and creamy leaving you wanting more. The portion size was good. Then came some baccon. Omg the size of it was very generous and Joel explained that it was smoked for 18 hours. The nice tender pork belly was cooked to perfection and and cheries on top with shot of bourbon that I ended up drinking instead of dipping or drizzling on my perfect swine. The oysters were described perfectly and were smooth yet delicate and had a creamy taste. There was no need for hostashish or hot sauce to kill the marvelous flavor. The scalopes were seasoned to perfection and not rubbery or hard. The presentation was as if picasso created this masterpiece and the flavors were all over the place making your senses go wild. This was all washed down with a pinot noir that was fabulous all in itself. Joel then came back to take our dinner order. We then spoke about places to eat and recomeded things to each other and were incredibly happy with him. Any server who can make an instant connection like Joel did is a master of his craft. For dinner Joel recommend a lobster resoto that had a lemony champagne sauce that was on point. The flavor didn't kill the lobster taste and it also came with a lobster tail that my other half devoured. The chef did a spectacular job with the presentation of the dish as well as the creation and the flavors

Sonya

We love this place! Bartender extraordinaire Andy is so kind and takes care of his Patrons. All of the staff are so smiley and welcoming. The food here is just the added bonus. So damn delicious! The portions are generous and their little touches, like leather placemats with a knife and fork that get rolled out in front of you, oh so cool. I’ve never seen that before in a restaurant…. We will be back early next month. As a matter of fact, this will become one of our staples. 💯 Thank you Andy and Staff at Baldamar. 💜

Stephanie Jones

Exquisite! The waiters are handsome and the food is delicious. Definitely one of the best brunch spots in the Twin Cities! I’ll be back for dinner! The brunch is reasonable and a great vibe. I loved the Cajun pasta and the prime rib egg benedict!

Baramee Chindavong

Great place. The staff was amazing and attentive. The service was very good and fairly quick. The food was delicious...especially all the sides.the seafood is amazingly fresh and tastes that way. The decor is that of a steakhouse but a bit more casual and comfortable than stuffy. High ceilings, dark wood. There is a big bar and high tops...there's also a more traditional dining room and an outdoor patio as well.

Mai Lee Vang

Ended up w/ a change of plans so we decided to try out Baldamar for brunch. It was nice that they were able to fit us in since we did not have a reservation n there was 5 of us. Food was delicious. Mimosa wasn't anything special. It was like any other mimosa you get. I would not mind going back to try either lunch or dinner.

MGonzoL

Phe-nom-e-nal! The whole dining experience was phenomenal! Everything from the "appetizers" to the main entrée were complete taste sensations! Every bite brought out an exclamation of, "Oh my gosh!" The waitress was very knowledgeable and extremely friendly! We will be back.... a lot!

Lindsey Hiner

We had a small work party here and everything was great! Our waiter was very helpful, attentive and walked us through the entire menu. I especially loved that they source a lot of the meat locally.

Nick Lorch

Had been on my radar for quite awhile. Anniversary night approached and we reserved a table. Our server Ben (the one that looks like a swashbuckler) was second to none with descriptions and service - the best! Food phenomenal! Had a Ribeye & Waygu steak - Calamari & Sea-Scallops! Mashed & Brussels on side. I really wanted the Halibut as well but next time! Do Not drive-by anymore! Book a table!

Nicholas Willette

A very fun restaurant with a great vibe. The appetizers here we're the real winner ( we got the bread and the brussel sprouts ) both were amazing and I would come back for the again. For the main dish we got the burger as I wasn't feeling too fancy that night haha. Burger was very good and I really enjoyed the sauce and style they did for it. They really only had the one burger so glad I enjoyed it. Wasn't a big fan of the desert but that is likely my preference. Would definitely recommend checking out!

Martese Wolfe

I really enjoyed myself my wife birthday was today and the experience was amazing Amanda made sure we enjoyed this day as well as food and drinks.... Although the bar tender ignores us... Amanda was on time as well as professional.... The food is really really good....

Lah Vang

The most Amazing experience ever, my waitress is amazing, the vibe was phenomenal, the atomsphere was BEAUTIFUL!! SERIOUSLY, YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED!!

Justin Olson

Right when I walked in the door I was warmly welcomed by the host with “where are your pants?!!” Yes I wear shorts in the winter - Im a rare breed. My waitress, Tamera, did an excellent job. She answered all my questions and asked the chef if they could make my chilled lobster sandwich grilled. In the end she guided me to a fantastic desert which was just enough. This was my first time here and will definitely be coming again, and to get the bottle of “Justin” haha - and for the great hospitality. Thank you Tamera!!!

BAYOWORLD

Update! Hit this spot again and I must say it was lit…shout outs to Ryan our server for his patience with our very BIPOC group that took forever to leave after close…he handled it well A+! All the food was good as well! *some of the prices are on the high side but portion wise you can split things so its not that bad…for example we all (5+ ppl) basically split the pumpkin cheesecake and some ice cream cause it was so damn big… Regardless, DELICIOUS FOOD and great customer service, but not the nicest on the pockets…I went for brunch and I can’t wait to go again!

Cynthia Farley

Always delicious food. However so crowded, that people congregate around your table without consideration. The owner should represent or have hostess guide waiting guest to a specific location.

Muhammad Sultan

Absolutely loved every second and $ I spent here. For the appetizer, we ordered tuna poke which was perfect. I ordered the 14oz NY strip steak which was delicious. My friends ordered the filet mignon and sea bass which they loved as well. To top it all off, DO try the Mocha Mud Pie for dessert. Was my first time but surely not going to be the last!

Mike Leslie

Awesome venue to go for a special occasion to enjoy fantastic atmosphere and excellent food. A number of folks in our party ordered steaks, which were amazing, and I splurged for the stuffed lobster tail which, if I remember correctly, was an off menu special. While my choice was expensive it was extremely good. I'm a die hard seafood fan and this was some of the best lobster I've ever had. Our waiter Andrew was equally as fantastic. He was a blast to talk with, was great with all the questions we had (which was a lot) and did great to really take care of us. Next time we go I'm hoping to have him with us. Overall, I have nothing but praise to sing for our visit.

Lisa Woolhouse

We came here for our 1st time last night for my 5 year sobriety birthday. All I can say is WOW!🤩 The host sat us in the coziest L-shaped booth, these are my fav to sit close to my honey (I call them a "love" booth😍) Our server was STELLAR, Aaron was kind, personable and gave us great suggestions on food and an NA cocktail, Red Rosie 🌹 which I loved! We had the bread is life & calamari to start. (I'm coming back just for that bread!) We then had the ribeye, sea bass❤️, mushrooms and what Minnesotan would I be without ordering the lobsta Mac & Chz!?! Baldamar, you gave us one of the very best dining experiences ever! Your service, food, ambience just made my birthday so special. Thank you, and we will be back.

Carmen Raisch

Absolutely AMAZING! Everything I ate was very tasty BUT I have to give an honorable mention to the creamy Parmesan mushrooms! Must try!! Jen was our server and she deserves mention as well. Very nice and friendly. She was very attentive even during the busy Saturday dinner rush. I will be returning and definitely recommend to anyone looking for a fine dining experience!

An Burns

Absolute fantastic dining experience! Our server Chris was very polite and along with the rest of the courteous staff, beautiful restaurant, Delicious food and impeccable presentation, their manager Michael and the chef personally stopped by to see how everything was - made the experience very personable and impressive. As a former server/bartender of 5 years, I usually find myself making excuses and defending poor customer service when I dine out - oh they must be in the weeds, triple sat, short staffed, etc. today no excuses were necessary at Baldamar! I was so thoroughly impressed - I plan to return with my husband, my sisters, my parents… literally for any occasion I can think of to share this amazing place with. Keep up the great work! This level of care and customer service is appreciated and refreshing after such a tough 2020. Do yourself a favor and treat yourselves to dinner at Baldamar.

Nicholas Popehn

First trip, 4.5 stars, Very good overall! I’m not sure we were “wowed” by any of the dishes but they are all well done. Above average steak for sure, everything is a little expensive, but overall the quality is good, so if I’m paying $24 for three scallops, these are the scallops I would like like to see, nice big scallops cooked to perfection. So overall nice dinner for us for Mother’s Day. Beautiful decor, looks like it would be timeless and classic, slight music in the background, perfect volume, nice lighting, Although it’s the slightest tad too dark, and luckily my phone does some magic to take semi decent pics. Worthy of a return trip, potentially a 5 star restaurant, really hard to give 5 stars based on one trip.

Brittany Billiet

My husband and I came here for the first time for our wedding anniversary and it was INCREDIBLE! Our server was very knowledgeable and awesome to have, the food was delicious (steaks, calamari, bread with three dipping options, mashed potatoes, Brussels sprouts and dessert) and the atmosphere was cool. We’ve been to some really nice steakhouses and this is now in our top two!

Sami Mir

Great dining experience. The cesar salad was really delish. I had the short ribs and everyone else had the prime filet mignon and we all were very happy with our food. The corn is great as a side

Jessica Howard

Wonderful food and service! Ben gave us recommendations and suggestions and answered all the questions we had. We went for lunch and got lunch portions. I had the B.L.A.T (bacon, lettuce, avacodo, and tomato) half sandwich and upgraded my fries to truffle fries. The veggies were fresh and the bacon was perfect (not too crispy nor chewy). My husband had the prime rib half sandwich with beer cheese soup. The prime rub was flavorful and melt in your mouth. The only complaint about the soup was that it was so cheesy, it needed 3 or 4 pretzels! He also had the lobster mac and cheese (forgot the picture). Big chunks of lobster and super cheesy. Husband said there was too many onions, though.

Gary Kelner

Fantastic food, atmosphere, and cocktails. I would gladly go back. Thanks to Ryan for the great service.

Josh V

Excellent food, great service but quirky, fantastic atmosphere. I've brought business associates here and they love it. The food has been top notch every time. Their servers are friendly and professional with a few curiosities. I had a server effectively read us the entire menu, it's not a short menu. This went on for over ten minutes and she blew by all my hints to get her to stop. I also want to encourage the bar to make craft cocktails. They appear to be craft cocktails on the menu but the bartender smashes all the ingredients over ice in a hot-from-the-dishwasher glass and dumps it in front of you. You're charging significantly more for these, put the effort and time in, staff another bartender if necessary.

Thorbjoern

Staff are very professional and friendly 👍 Appetizers are super awesome 👍 Main dishes are awesome 👍 Desserts look very impressive but does not taste exciting, kinda boring actually 🥱 Manager annoyingly snooty and may just touch your food or give it another table, to then turn around and try to pawn off on you 🤬 Bartender doesn't know how to pour a scotch on rocks, and a ginger ale is measured as one third of a small glass - nothing that will ever squinch your thirst 🤷🏻‍♀️ Restaurant seem unprepared for customers wanting non alcoholic beverages 🤦🏽

Rob Neal

Excellent all around! Jalapeño honey butter with the Bread is Life was flavorful but not spicy (perhaps that was a flaw but it was still good.) Brussel sprouts are a can’t miss. Calamari and tuna poke were both delicious if a little bit on the small side for an appetizer for a group larger than four. Truffle fries were perfect but the ribeye was truly the star. I had it Oscar style because why not? Perfectly seared and medium rare - guessing sous vide. Bearnaise was pure decadence and a nicely charred bunch of asparagus. Only nitpick was the crab was a pile of flakes. Some whole leg pieces would’ve put it over the top. Still highly recommended!

Ron Malcolm

Went there for Sunday brunch and it did not disappoint us. Very friendly staff. Very nice menu items to choose from all of it Very good. Will be going back again.

Melissa Mercuri

Food was so good. The shank was full of flavor and the steaks were definitely next level quality and cooked perfect. Potatoes were buttery and lovely. We had the shrimp and Mac n cheese as appetizers and they did not disappoint!! I also love that they have tattersall cocktails:)

Jonathon Hill

I've never had a bad experience here. Each time the waiters have been absolutely amazing. They made me feel comfortable and were knowledgeable about the menu and specials. They checked up on us enough that I didn't feel like I couldn't find them or that they were hovering. The drinks are great as is the food. The Bread is Life is my life. I could not recommend this place enough. Will definitely be back more.

Luis Zambrano

Lat night we had the best time at dinner that I think I've ever had! Great food and drinks Our server Jennifer was amazing and full of personality plus. She was attentive, entertaining and knowledgeable. She is a huge asset to your restaurant and deserves much kudos. We will definitely be back soon!

C. Eich

I rarely write reviews but had to say how amazing our dinner was. The steak was cooked to perfection and the Oscar style was delicious. Cocktails were also really good. I can't wait to come here again. Highly recommend.

Jess Fleming

Fabulous!!! Service was outstanding, as was food and drink!! The Sunday happy hour in the bar area is fabulous!

Sheng V

Other choices they had were great, but my favorites were the shrimp cocktails and the toasts. I loved the lemon bars because it wasn't super tart and it definitely wasn't super sweet (because I'm not too big on sweets). The bottomless Mimosas were good, but it got me full real quick.

Erica Nickoloff

Checked out Baldamar for restaurant week. The food was incredible. Our server was also personable and knowledgeable. I plan to come back again in the future, I'd like to try their brunch menu as well.

Tami Thurmer

Food and service were great. Also it was nice to get a gift card to come back and try them again. I thought you were supposed to receive something for your birthday but I did not but overall it was a nice experience

Patty Kovalik

We had a wonderful time! I would have given 5 stars but here is why not, inconsistent with garnish for drinks I.e. one lemon drop martini with a lemon one without, one Corona with a lime one without. The lobster Mac and cheese was a huge disappointment! Way too spicy only 3 pieces of lobster and the cheese on top was all wrong. The atmosphere and staff was awesome! Would definitely recommend!

Brock Tice

This was our second time here and the food was great both times. It's quite busy and noisy, hence the 3 stars for atmosphere, but it was also peak time on a Friday evening. I had the Denver cut wagyu special and every bite was amazing. Service was friendly and attentive without smothering or excessively interrupting our dinner conversation.

The service and our wonderful server Eric, the food and the atmosphere was all wonderful! We left with full bellies and plenty of leftovers. We will be back!

Christopher Johnson

We stopped here on a whim and didn't know if we were dressed up enough but we were delighted to still be allowed in. Had patio seating and Red and the whole team did a great job taking care of us! Beautiful restaurant including bathrooms and although the prices are high the quality and experience mirrors that price perfectly. Thanks for the birthday dessert and gift Red. You are truly a treasure and what a blessing you were to our day yesterday!

This place is a gold mine of a dining experience!!!! Vast menu of exquisite choices and our server was a treasure trove of culinary knowledge. She knew every item, how it was prepared, and was definitely and embellishment to our dining experience. Jennifer, if you’re ‘listening’, kudos. And the management staff, Top Notch! We’ll be back ❤️

Alexandra Dickison

The best food I've ever had in my entire life! My husband and I went here to celebrate our anniversary and wow, the place is beautiful, the service is wonderful, and the food was AMAZING!

Don't waste your money on the chilled lobster roll, unless you really like eating bread more than you do lobster. They just dumped a few pieces with mayo on top of the very large bun that's not even cut fully. The salad was just greens with 2 pieces of tomatoes. This place was on my "want to go" list, but now that I have, it's not moving to the "star" list! The waiter was very helpful, though.

Decadence meets a t-shirt and jeans is my best description of the ambiance. Attentive, gracious waitstaff, generous portions, the best steak I have had in years, chocolate cake very similar in flavor to my tweaked version of chocolate blackout cake from Ebinger's. 12 ordered a grilled cheese...yes, they do have a children's menu. Husband and our family friend both had salmon. Preparation on point for the most part. Cocktails at the table included a King Crimson and glass of Riesling. Sides included street corn off the cob which had a medium spicy finish and wedge salad with homemade dressing. There had been a spill near the entryway on the tile. While staff had cleaned it and marked it with a yellow sign, it remained ice rink slippery. Dry towel and a spare carpet could have been handy here. Our friend's cane slipped. Had she been one step farther, she may well have fallen. More bacon on the wedge salad was anticipated, especially for the price. Other than that, a perfect meal. We will be back.

If I could give Baldamar a 20/10 I would. Our experience at the restaurant was absolutely amazing. Ambiance/Atmosphere: 10/10 Waitstaff: 10/10 Drinks: 10/10 Food: 10/10 We Ordered: •DRINKS• •Brooklyn Bonfire- Ordering this drink was a a fun experience & it tasted great! When they bring the drink out to you the glass is upside down with hickory smoke trapped underneath. The waiter picks up the glass and you get a nice scent of the hickory smoke before he puts the bourbon cherry in the glass where he then pours in the cocktail from a cute globe like glass. I almost ordered an old fashioned but the waiter suggested this-I’m glad he did! It was an awesome alternative and really enjoyed the experience. I would definitely order this drink again. •Peaches & Tea- This drink was light, refreshing, and not too sweet! Again, presentation was great and taste even better. •STARTERS & MAIN COURSE• •Spicy bacon lobster Mac & cheese- This starter/side was SO delicious. It was creamy, it was cheesy, and there was plenty of lobster. Of course it also had delicious bits of bacon. Not too spicy but just a small kick-the perfect amount in my opinion. •Lobster roll with a Cesar salad as a side- This lobster roll was so fresh and delicious! The brioche roll it comes on is buttery tasting and toasted with PLENTY of lobster. They are not stingy with their lobster either! It was everything we wanted in a lobster roll. The Cesar salad as a side was very nice, light, tasty, and refreshing! •Tamarind braised short rib- This dish was amazing! The meat is so tender its unbelievable. And the flavors with the pickled mango salad and shaved asparagus on top added another delicious dimension. Not even to mention the sauce-yes it gets even better with the sauce! Portion size was also pretty generous. If you love short rib you will love this dish! •Salmon Cesar salad- This Cesar salad was so refreshing with the fresh crisp lettuce, delicious dressing, crunchy croutons, and perfectly cooked salmon. It is a more than ideal meal portion for those looking for a slightly lighter option. The amount of salmon given was also very generous. •DESSERT• •mocha mud pie- This cake was SO worth it. If you like chocolate and coffee you will love this cake. It is an ice cream cake with of course that delicious cookie layer as we all know ice cream cakes come with. The crunchy cookie layer comes with a twist- roasted walnuts and yes it was a delicious combination. Not only that but they top it with whip cream, fresh hot fudge and caramel! This cake is not too rich but the perfect balance between chocolate and coffee with a little crunch. This was shared between 3 people and there was plenty left over. The size of the ice cream cake was absolutely ginormous and made to share. Our Experience: We came in for lunch without reservation. We were able to get seated quickly by a very friendly hostess. After seating we got water immediately and was greeted by our waiter, Chris. He welcomed us in and asked if we have ever been in before. It was everyone’s first time so he kindly ran us through the menu and highlighted some options. As we were ready to order he took everything down and put the order in right away. The food came out quickly, it had amazing presentation, and all tasted SO amazing. While we were eating Chris was very attentive and checked in often to make sure we didn’t need anything. Our waters were always filled when they got at least half way. The Manager Michael stopped by during lunch to make sure everything was to our liking. He was very friendly and it was pleasant speaking with him. A bit later the Chef Steve stopped by to make sure everything was tasting good. He was also very friendly and we enjoyed him stopping by as well. Overall I would have to say this is one of the better restaurant experiences I’ve had which is why I chose to write this long of a review. I’ve never written a review for a restaurant and thought Baldamar more than deserved it! Thank you to everyone at the restaurant that contributed in our amazing experience!

Steve Stai

Steaks were great. Service was quick and friendly. Prices comparable to other nice steak houses.

Dack Anderson

5 star service during the dinner hours, 3 star during lunch. Food is always excellent any time of day, the kitchen is consistent. The atmosphere gets 4 star not 5 because the lighting is uneven over the tables. One side of the table is under the lights, like being under a spot light, and the other side is in the shadow, too dark to even see the menu without a phone flashlight. Overall, a quality place to dine

Lucy Vu

Sean definitely made the experience 100%! My girlfriend and I came here for brunch and it was absolutely delicious! We were coming out to celebrate her marriage and catching up! It was our first time here and definitely will come back again! Can’t wait to try their dinner menu next time with our group of friends! Thank you again Sean!! You the best!(:

Matthew Avignon Petersen

Easily our new favorite restaurant - crave-worthy, transcendent level of quality, flavor and presentation. Our server, Andrew was a a consummate gentlemen and a professional in every regard, when meant our experience was flawless. When he found it it was our first time, he took the time to take us through the menu, and then ensured that every detail about our meal was to our liking. Now that's service. We'll be back!

Michael Lumpkin

I took advantage of winter restaurant week and tried this place…. And boy did i find a gem. The food was beautiful and delicious. The service was just right - there when needed but allowed for good table conversation to take place. The overall aesthetics/atmosphere of this place is pleasing. This is now one of my favorite restaurants in the Twin Cities. Highly recommend you try it!

Sheila Robinson

We celebrated my birthday with our family here. Randy was our server and he did a great job. A bit on the pricey side, but for special occasions, it was very nice. Hard to carry a conversation at the tables as it is a louder atmosphere.

Tu Tu

Went for lunch on Sunday afternoon and it was pretty packed. Understandable because the food was really delicious!

Kendra

went here in 2019 for my bday, had a really delicious salmon salad. unfortunately haven't been since. can't wait to go again! p.s. would love to meet the owner of the blacked out C8... 😎

Sean Gage

The service and food were both excellent. We had the truffle fries, lobster Mac n Cheese, oysters, heirloom salad and hangar steak and each item seemed better than the last. Definitely go check it out!

Joey White

10/10, will return. If you can't get a reservation for the restaurant or patio, the bar is usually open. The cocktails are good, the food is great. Tried the lobster roll, scallops, and roasted cauliflower. Would order all of it again. The salted caramel ice cream was excellent, too!

Serenity Silvers

We finally went to Baldamar for dinner and I can't believe we waited this long! The food was amazing, the staff was welcoming, and the atmosphere was energetic. The oysters were fresh, the Bread is Life comes with three dips made in house, and the Spicy Bacon Lobster Mac & Cheese was unbelievable. Can't wait to go try more items on the menu!

Merry Sedlak

The service and food were excellent. It was hard for the 6 of us to hear each other, but that is pretty common these days. The only reason they didn’t get the fifth star is because we felt rushed. We had a cocktail, and were asked numerous times if we were ready to order, and when we did, the salads came out very quickly. But, before we could even finish the salad, the entrees came up, and there wasn’t enough room on the table for them. I realize we had an early reservation (5:15) on a Saturday night, and they probably had the opportunity to turn that table 3 times, but at the prices they charge, we should not feel rushed.

Veronica Phongsavath

This restaurant while a bit out of the way for some minnesotans is well worth the drive! Another successful beach off of the founders of Manny's stead house in downtown Minneapolis and Six Smith this place has it all! The atmosphere is perfect, decor modern-chic, the staff knowledgeable and attentive! It is on the pricier side but well worth the cost! If you're looking for some place new to knock your socks off you e found it!

Kerry Westman

This restaurant is serious about its ingredients and presentation, and with fairly serious prices, which is to be expected. What I did not expect was a big screen television in the main dining room ( over the bar ), and patrons wearing hats indoors . Is it too much to expect to eat a fine meal and have conversation without the intrusion of a screen ( at least sound was muted), and that people could maybe dress up somewhat. Only one of these issues can be attributed to the restaurant, and it was a fabulous meal!

Beverly Parnell

I'm so sad to not be providing an excellent review for Baldamar. I had heard such good things about it, but found it to be quite average. I was entertaining business associates (and previewing it for an out of town visit from friends). We were seated at a nice corner booth in the bar. The atmosphere was pleasant. Our server was nice, but lacked polish. One thing I found odd was that she returned the receipt to sign with no pen. I ordered a $50 filet. Mind you, everything is served a la carte, so that was $50 for just the piece of meat. It was undercooked even though I was very specific on how I preferred it done. They took it back and just recooked the same piece of meat including the pieces I had already cut off. I was provided with a steak knife that I had a hard time cutting the steak with because it was so tough. You should be able to cut a tenderloin with a butter knife. The sea bass my co-worker had was very good. This place is just way over priced for average food. I will be taking my guests to a different steakhouse next time, one that I've had a perfect experience at every time.

Katie Zehowski

An absolute perfect place to enjoy great food, quality service and a welcoming atmosphere.

Keith Stone

Wonderful birthday dinner for my daughter! Lobster Mac and Cheese, half of a chilled lobster roll with beer cheese soup and a Bavarian pretzel for me and same for my daughter but tomato soup with grill cheese. Mud Pie and baked Alaska for dessert. Attentive wait staff, very welcoming, we will be back!

Miranda Fuller

My husband and I received a gift card to Baldamar as a gift and finally decided to check it out last night. Our server, Red, was beyond amazing! She took the time to go over the entire menu for us in exquisite detail, including the off menu options. She was attentive, helpful, and very pleasant to talk with! We would go back again and definitely ask for her as our server!! The food was amazing and definitely worth the higher price tag than we are used to. Great for a date night out away from the kiddos!

Annie

Beautiful restaurant! The atmosphere is just romantic and our waiter was so friendly and knowledgeable. He walked us thru the menu and was very throughly. Very kind! The food was amazing too. Perfect seasoning and presentation. The lamb was on point! Overall, great dinner here like always!

Jason Schoenhoff

Amazing food and service above any expectations I had. We had the lunch menu and can't wait to return for dinner service. The Scallops as a starter was a highlight best Scallops I've ever eaten. Wish I could remember our servers name as she was top notch and very helpful in deciding what we should order. Highly recommend.

Mikki Lynch

I came here for the first time for my birthday. Jennifer was absolutely fabulous, she took amazing care of us. The food was fantastic and I recommend to anyone who is looking for a great dinner. Thank you!

Brian Van Ness

Baldamar had become a favorite - several meals that were great - with great service. Salads, fish, and beef ribs really good. But, this last meal was a surprising disappointment - lamb chops. They were tiny (quarter size), thin cut, overdone (almost as if they sat for awhile then were served), and overly salty. I still recommend the restaurant, but stay clear of the lamb chops!

Brian Bluhm

Staff was great, personable and attentive. Atmosphere is really nice. Appetizers are typical nice bar and grill apps with a higher price. The menu is pretty much an ala carte style as most entrees do not come with anything else. $61 for a rib eye with no sides. Add a salad and a side and your meal is close to $90. Plan on spending $200+ for a meal for two with drinks. The Old Fashioned is good. Overall, it was a good experience but for us a one and done type of restaurant since there are plenty of other Twin Cities restaurants with better food and value.

Ryan Tepley

I went here for a family birthday party for my father in laws 70th birthday. The ambience is nice and the food is so good me and my wife came back a week later to eat here again. Only downside is thier vegetarian menu is very limited, if they had more options for vegetarians I'd probably eat here at least once a month if not more. Having said that I'll definitely come back for more family gatherings or if my friends want to try someplace new. I highly recommend it!

Negma Farah

Service was exceptional. The truffle fries were drool worthy. My sandwich was amazing and juicy. But the winner was the 15 layer chocolate cake!!! ⭐️

Ben Theis

Was very impressed. Upscale restaurant but worth the cost with a good atmosphere. The steak, dry rub wings and Bacon were excellent. Also 👌 on the sour mix for drinks. Will definitely be going back! …

Nicholas Kraemer

I was not sure what to expect, but I was pleasantly surprised. The dining room is very nicely decorated and the tables appropriately spaced. The service is friendly and attentive. I really enjoyed my cocktail, Brooklyn Bonfire, and liked the choices of traditional and new beverage offerings. They also have NA cocktails that aren't just sugary, which is awesome. The appetizer / small plates are a lunchtime star. The nachos are an absolute must... They are so delicious and reheat very well at home (the portion size is impressive). I substituted a side salad for the fries and I was happy with the nice, fresh greens. I had no room for dessert, but I was tempted. This is a can't miss location if you're in or near Roseville.

Sylvia Morgan

I absolutely love Baldamar! It’s my go-to spot when I have friends or clients on the northeast side of town! The food, service, and drinks are delicious and amazing! I’ve worked for Randy Stanley in the past and he is an amazing owner and person that I’m happy to continue to support!

F Griffith

1 of the Best Restaurant in Minnesota... PERIOD!!! The ambiance is romantic & quaint.

Liz

We had a reservation and weren’t seated for over 15 minutes past our reservation time. The food was very good and the portions were generous. Scallops and burgers were delicious especially. The quality of service was not what I would expect based on the price, though. I ordered a drink and was asked for my ID, which is obviously standard. The waiter then made a comment asking if I was really of age to be ordering alcohol. The comment was made in a rather disrespectful manner. Comments about someone’s perceived physical appearance are not appropriate to make as a server and made me uncomfortable. Asking for someone’s ID is expected and welcome and can be done in a professional manner without making the experience uncomfortable for guests.

Not Exactly

I had the sea bass. AMAZING! Flavorfull, not overcooked on a bed of greens that had a little kick. The quality of the fish was so good that when i reheated it 2 days later it was even better. I had the Lobster macn cheese which was also very flavorful. The only thing is a few shells in my mac n cheese. I had to pick them out every so often which ruined the dish. I also did not get asparagus with my fish and it was on the menu. My waiter was kind and attentive. I cant wait to go for steak!!

V Norr

Absolutely recommended! Our serve, Sophia was awesome! We had calamari for the appetizer. I had a Prime Rib Sandwich, mum had a Burger#32 and we both had a bloody Mary. Everything's good, nice ambiance. We'll definitely be back. Back again for brunch w/ hubby today, Sunday 03/14/2021. Definitely recommended! The cheesy hash browns, cajun pasta, shrimp cocktail, smoked salmon, and of course the prime rib! There's also fruits, and desserts. We had the verde bloody mary to drink. Our server was the same as last time I came which was Sophia, and she was awesome!

Paul Weimer

Impeccable and unimpeachable food and atmosphere. Prices are high but you get value for the cost for sure.

Kelsie Kilber

YUM! We celebrated my husband’s birthday and were not disappointed. Everything was so delicious. We had the oysters, truffle fries, prime ribeye, filet mignon, mashed potatoes, and asparagus. No complaints about a single thing. Cooked perfectly. Our server (Denise I think) was so sweet. 100% would recommend.

Chase Nelson

I love 6 Smith so I was excited to check out Baldamar and see what makes it different from their sister restaurant. The only complaint I have with my previous experiences at 6 Smith was the service. But my waiters at Baldamar are literally on point. The food is great, overall the quality was amazing. This is definitely a restaurant to try now and try in a few months, it's always going to keep changing. Also the brunch buffet is insane. Hopefully it reopens after Covid.

Jennifer Flynn

We came in for happy hour and the experience was great. Our server was so on top of it and the food was incredible. I'm used to smaller happy hour portions but they appeared to be full size! Will definitely be coming back for dinner. My too two were the stoner fries and the chicken wings.

Levi Wilson

Food has been good both times I've visited. It's a very open space. Service is strong. Something about the place is a bit too calculated and sterile to be very endearing and the location is amid a suburban strip mall maze.

Paul Nealy

Fantastic place. Very busy most weeknights. Gets loud in there so at a large table, it is hard to hear ( we had a large round table of 10. Food is awesome and many selections for appetizers. Entrees are a la carte so order sides to share. Service was slow but they were busy and we had a big group. Dinner took 3+ hours.

Vera Jones

Amazing place to lunch and have dinner and everything in between with my friends and loved ones:)

North Star Mini Storage

We had a Sunday afternoon dinner here and it was incredible. Fresh oysters to start and a roasted cauliflower for apps. I've had the street corn here with a filet mignon before and it's awesome. I had a perfect miso crusted sea bass and he had a NY strip. It's really nice to have upscale dining in Roseville and the restaurant is beautiful.

Markeda V.

Wonderful fine dining experience that is worth every dollar. The staff were so polite and helpful ensuring our dining experience went smoothly. Our waiter was very personable and made our dining experience much more special. I would highly recommend if you’re looking for great food, wonderful atmosphere, and great service.

Melissa Prenevost

The aesthetic of this restaurant is very modern. I visited on a Thursday around 5. Parking was easy in their parking lot. There was plenty of room around the bar to grab a seat. We arrived just in time for happy hour (Sunday’s are all day happy hour). The bartenders (Del and Sean) were super friendly and helpful. Service was quick and you could tell a lot of attention was paid to details in the restaurant. The food was good, however I was a little disappointed in the Thai calamari. I don’t know if it’s because we got the happy hour portion or if this would be the case with the appetizer option as well, but there wasn’t a lot of calamari but a ton of shredded carrots. It was very disproportionate between the two. Also the carrots were super oily. I would definitely go back, but I wouldn’t get the Thai calamari again.

CHRISTAL PERKINS

Really enjoyed everything about it Our server Minda was fabulous. She was attentive and made us all feel welcome! I had the 3 scallops and rib tips.

Super Cat

Wonderful night, wonderful atmosphere. Fancy but still lively and enjoyable. Rib-eye was simply amazing, best one I have ever had. Definitely the choice to make if you are coming for a steak. Sides and appetizers were delicious. Calamari, Brussels sprouts, lobster mac and cheese were all really good. The bread side was amazing. Prime filet was good but not as quite as good as the prime. Ribs were nothing special. They were good but so is everything else. Very attentive staff. Cheesecake was wonderful too. TL;DR Amazing food, great night, get the rib-eye and the bread.

Janessa Hefti

Went for a patio luncheon yesterday. The food was fantastic and the service was excellent. Shout out to bartender Shaun/Shawn/Sean (sp?) for incredible service and being able to handle our sarcastic yet (hopefully) fun trio. Will be back in the future. Cheers! 7/2 Returned again for an after work dinner. As before the food was delicious and the service impeccable. Big thank you to Brian for his attentive and friendly service - the dessert recommendation was so appreciated! Also met with Heather (mgr) for info on private party spaces available for events. Looking forward to many more delicious meals and fantastic service. Thank you!

Yvonne M

UPDATE 03/07/2021: I went here for Sunday brunch. Highly recommend! The food was good, including the prime rib. The price was great for the choices offered. The staff was very careful and wearing masks. It is an all you can eat buffet, however they plate the food for you. So overall very good experience and lovely staff. I recently went here with a friend for happy hour. We scored a table in the bar area within 10 minutes. The happy hour menu was really decent and had great deals. We both ordered the lobster roll sliders. I requested gluten-free and was expecting it to be wrapped in lettuce, but they had GF rolls. The lobster rolls had significant lobster stuffed in the roll. Because mine was GF it came on one larger roll. Mine was excellent with entire claw meat included. The lobster was literally falling from the bun. And the bun!!!, was soft, chewy and warm. I was delirious from all of that deliciousness. We had really good wine also that was on the happy hour menu and cheese curds. And if that weren't enough, the server was incredible! He was friendly, offered great suggestions, checked in appropriately without being annoying and our water glasses were constantly refilled. I honestly don't remember them being refilled, that's how discreet and quiet they are. I took home the lobster mac and cheese for my hubby. Again, there mac and cheese had significant chunks of lobster. I will definitely be going back to try the seafood. The server said the seafood is fresh, like every other day shipped fresh. Excellent place!!!

Taryn Halterman

Food was delicious and the service was great! We had some wine and a mocktail, the bread is life appetizer, twice baked loaded potato, filet mignons (one with brandy peppercorn and the other with blue cheese & fried onions), and the s’mores mud pie for dessert. Our server, Red, was super knowledgeable and personable which made our dining experience even better. We’ve already picked a date to dine there again so we can try more of what’s on their menu.

Kelly Gaffke

Very dark lit cool ambiance, excellent food and service. The sea bass was delish and also the calamari. Really everything we ate was so good! Just ate brunch here too and it was great! Check out this bloody Mary!

Benjamin Lutz

Everytime we've gone to Baldamar has been a success. The last time we went, my girlfriend and I were recognized by our waitress from two weeks previous who even remembered our favorite drinks from the previous visit. Shout out to Pascal!

Christin Smith Bland

Baldamar is a very nice restaurant with excellent food and a friendly and competent staff. The bread appetizer, complete with a trio of butters/seasoned olive oil, is a must for bread lovers! Baldamar is primarily a steak house, but the sea bass is consistently delicious and the pork shank literally fell off the bone (in a good way)! We celebrated our anniversary and were delighted that they gave us a gift certificate for a future visit and a modest sized dessert to share.

Cua

Love thier steak. Had their Prime Ribeye. It was perfect. No additional seasoning or sauce needed. Had other varieties of appetizers too. You can't go and not get the Spicy Bacon Lobster Mac & Cheese. Diffinitly will visit again.

Sara EV

Amazing place! Easy to park, gorgeous decor and details, delicious food with a lot of options for every taste, excellent service and affordable prices! We were a group of 6 and everyone was impressed! We are definitely coming back to try more food, drinks and cocktails!

Todd Stratman

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! It was our first time to Baldamar and they did not disappoint. The staff was top notch being friendly.and attentive. We had the Manhattan and Old Fashion and they were delicious and prepared perfectly. For dinner, we started with a ceasar salad which I will not order again. Overall good but lacked flavor. After the salad the heavens opened and the remaining experience was awesome. We had the ribeye which was done to perfection and the flavor was just spectacular. The lobster mac and cheese was delicious and had plenty of chunks of lobster but I have to say the star of the show were the Brussel Sprouts. I have had Brussel Sprouts many times but the sauce.they use was to die for. I had a special moment with a greater power at first bite. LoL. There is no doubt we will return and excited to share with friends and family. So happy they made it through the shutdown

Sharon Reid

Service was ok, however we had to wait about 5 minutes after our main courses were delivered to the table, for our side dishes to arrive, and they were only warm, not hot. Waiter seemed somewhat overwhelmed with the number of tables he had to wait on.

Kait F

Shout out to Red! They ALWAYS provide amazing service and are our hands down favorite staff member. Please give them a bonus; their personality and service is what we strive for as fellow service industry people

Ben Schmitz

Overpriced for what you get. Sides we just ok. $240 for sea bass, flank steak, 4 drinks, 2 sides, and bread. So loud, we could not hear each other. Server was good and informative. Go to Ruth's Chris instead.

Jackie Lee-Spilman

Best customer service I have seen in years! The food was delicious! Aaron was the best server I have had in a long time! We will go back for sure!

S A

This is quickly becoming a regular spot for me when I'm in Roseville the food is good the wait staff service is excellent bartenders questionable nontheless highly recommended to get a table

Kong Vang

We loved their happy hour oysters for $2. The Blue Point Oysters were our favorites. Very fresh and delicious. The lobsters rolls were underwhelming. The mayo sauce was too strong and the bun was tasteless. The spicy cheese curds were disappointing. Too much breading and salty. It overpowered any taste of the cheese. We love oysters, so we are def definitely coming back for those.

Allison Kiroff

AMAZING!!!! By far one of the best restaurants I’ve ever had the pleasure of dining at .. no need for salt n pepper all the flavor is there and it’s amazing from the starters to desert I am so impressed and our waitress Ash was amazing as well so knowledgeable of the whole menu we wanted her schedule just so we can only see her I mean I cannot express how impressed we were and we are not at all easy to impress … thank you Baldamar for the top tier experience!!!

Christian T. Petersen

Great ambience and architecture, good service. We had several dishes and have to report that food was way over-salted. Could be great with more attention to the food.

KE Jeffries

Excellent food with outstanding service by one of the Kevins! If you enjoy a good Manhattan....

Leah J

This may have been the best meal I’ve ever had. Everything exceeded our expectations. Blake, our server, was very professional and knowledgeable. He recommended the 7 spice wings as an appetizer and they were delicious! I ordered the prime rib eye and it was better than any rib eye I’ve had at other well known steakhouses in the twin cities. I highly recommend the brussel sprouts and street corn as well. After dinner we enjoyed cocktails at the bar and Brian, our bartender, was phenomenal. He is an excellent mixologist and it is definitely worth your while to see him in action. I can’t wait to go back!

Mike Otten

Wow. You have to come here just to see the restaurant itself. Amazing interior. The food was excellent as well. If you get an appetizer you have to try the bread is life. Warm french Baguette from Breadsmith with kosher salt on top served with sides of honey jalepaño butter, whipped butter, and chimmichurri. Got the Harvest Salad as well. So good. Had a maple vinaigrette with chevre cheese and walnuts that was balanced. Tried the beer cheese and drunkin tomato soups as well. Layers of flavor and complex as well. Definitely will be back to try more things on the menu.

Pete Roux

This was our first night out to eat since January so if course we were very excited. Baldamar is very new and we had heard nothing about it. We started the evening with cocktails that were perfect. The black and white Manhattan is a winner for sure! Then on to the salad. How good a Caesar salad is, for ys a really good indicator of how the rest of the meal will be. To our disappointment, the Caesar was rather flavorless. The croutons were u seasoned and the dressing was barely there. Luckily everything was MUCH better after that. The sides were amazing! Brussel sprouts like i have never had before and lobster mac and cheese with large chunks of the delicious seafood. Then...the ribeye. The glorious glorious ribeye. It was just delicious! Baldamar is a winner in my book and we will be back for sure as thier menu grows!

joanna janssen

Really love this place! The food is good, the service excellent. Atmosphere is private, even in a busy restaurant. 10/10 will return.

Tara Nienaber

Great steaks and a really nice atmosphere. The cocktails are great. The ribeye and the Brussels sprouts are awesome.

utchgirl

Lovely ambiance. Good food and excellent server. The drinks were good too.

Rochelle Washington

Nick or waiter... The staff at the bar and the parking lot were amazing! Thank you for allowing us to have 500.00 worth of fun, food and drinks. We had an amazing time. Food was delicious 😋 This is just our appetizers.. …

Ryan Marrinan

Burch used to be our favorite steak house but after visiting here and the closure of Burch this is our place! NY strip was the best I've had anywhere in the US. The service and atmosphere was amazing. Can't wait to go back!

Gavin Grivna

Had an unforgettable dinner celebrating our anniversary! Katie was an amazing server who made our time there extra special, and Heather who stopped by was friendly, and after discussing how much I loved the honey and jalapeno butter, brought us a ramekin to take home! The "bread for life" starter was outstanding, the roster cauliflower tasted like buffalo wings, the filet melted in your mouth AND for dessert we are truly thankful they brought out an obscenely large piece of chocolate cake. We left so full, so delighted and so thankful for an unforgettable dinner. Thank you to all their staff who made it happen!

Mariam Rehman

As soon as I heard that this restaurant is the brain-child of the co-owner of 6Smith, I knew I had to come here. We decided to visit for Valentine's day and we were not disappointed. Reservation was made for 5:45 and we were seated only 5 mins late - not bad for one of the busiest restaurant days of the year! Our server was very diligent in describing the new restaurant and the menu items. The menu is huge and we were debating what to get and we decided to start off with his recommendations - brussel sprouts and street corn. Oh. My. Gosh. The brussel sprouts were out of this world incredible - best ones I have ever tried ! Had a slight sweet soy/garlic flavor that was just irresistible. The corn was amazing and tasted just like Elote albeit a bit more oily with the sauce at the bottom. Couldn't stop eating! Husband got the chimichurri hangar steak and I got the scallops - both were amazing in their own right. The chimichurri steak was slightly tart but delicious. The scallops also had an asian-inspired flavor to them and I loved them! Very thick cuts of scallops and very soft. The gnocchi was some of the best I've ever had. We were stuffed after that dinner but still saved room for dessert and decided to get the apple cobbler. Oh my. It was soooo delicious! Twice baked to get that crispy crumble and the ice cream on top was perfect. 100% would dine again.

The braised pork shanks were great. Perfect for a cold blustery night. The server was knowledgeable, friendly and attentive.

Alexander K

First time trying this place. Very pleased. Our waiter was great and knowledgeable, very curries and polite and funny to talk to. The finishing touches in this place from the bar to dining room and even bathroom is exquisite. Will be back.

Our favorite steakhouse in the Twin Cities. The service wasn't anything exceptional, but the food is great and the restaurant has a very nice atmosphere.

Pieter K

Great ambiance. The salmon dish is nice but the crust has way too much salt. Plus the salmon was overcooked.

Sabrina Walker-Vieyra

We had a wonderful time.. Our waiter, William was exceptional and informative. We will be visiting again.

Rachel Cremisino

An amazing modern steak restaurant! Our entire experience was great. The staff was attentive, the drinks were strong “perfect in our opinion”, and the food was top notch. My husband is a huge steak lover and this might be the best steak we have ever had. Pros: great service, loved our drinks, elote corn served with homemade chips, steaks, and lobster mac and cheese! Cons: no prices on the menu and the caesar salad seemed a bit gritty/ grainy? I’m not sure if it is the dressing or what... We will definitely be returning and will highly recommend to our friends and family in the future!

The SRT God

This was amazing!!!! Had great food the service was good! They also follow the rules for covid-19! Very clean , bathrooms were kept up!! Definitely need to try this place!!

Carol Cummings

Kevin was a fabulous server and helped guide us through the menu and wine list. Thanks for a most fabulous evening!!

Donesha Benson

Food was AMAZING!! We all had different entrees and appetizers everything was great & the margarita was the best I’ve had! Heard they have brunch … I’ll be back to try it!

Denise Randall

I went for Sunday Brunch. Definitely worth a repeat visit. Service and food is wonderful.

Bill Hoffman

What a great experience. Beautiful restaurant, great ambiance. The food was some of the best I've ever had. Service was excellent. Renee was attentive and informative without being intrusive. The manager also stopped by our table twice just to make sure everything was great. Can't say enough good things about our dining experience. Highly recommended this restaurant for an outstanding meal.

Rita Lynch

The decor was lovely. The service impeccable. Went for restaurant week. Limited menu. Beer cheese soup was way too sharp for my taste, BUT they gave me a bowl of tomato soup which was tasty. Had the sea bass which was terrific. The salad that came plated with it had a bitter dressing which was again not to my taste, nor was the sauce for the bass. So 50/50. Food other diners were eating looked great.

W Soloman

Fantastic service! Even better food appetizers were delicious. main course really good also. Everything on the menu looks good will be back to try some more food.

Danielle BW

First time here! Ambiance was great. Restaurant itself was smaller than I expected. Ribeye steak was cooked to perfection and tasted awesome. Bread, mashed Yukon potatoes, and pressed chicken were flavorful also. However, the chicken wings were beautiful but lacked flavor. The service was good considering there was 12 in our party. Overall experience was good but not enough to return.

Hieu Nguyen

We sat on an outdoor table over the summer, and the server (my apologies I forget her name) was very well versed about the menu. I love to go to places where the servers really know what they are talking about versus pulling out their cell phones or playing their ways around our questions. Very good food. I love how they season the chicken wings and the ribs. Definitely recommend those for fingers food. The inside decoration is fun. Very welcoming! It seems like a nice place to meet and greet as well. Give it a shot!

J H

My first time at Baldamar was a very good experience. The waitress was very knowledgeable, which enhanced my visit. She told me what was popular on the menu, and was honest about what was maybe not the best options. This place has some excellent steaks, but I opted for seafood. I had the Miso Marinated Sea Bass. It surpassed my expectations! It was beyond flavorful and melt in your mouth delicious! The drinks were excellent as well. Again, the service was exceptional. It is very expensive. But as the old saying goes... You get what you pay for.

Chelsea

Our server was great. We ordered the Shrimp chimchurri and it was so good. Lobster roll was fabulous. The prime rib sandwich gave me an orgasm. 5 stars.

PDQ Garage Door Service

Really great Steak, and excellent service. I enjoyed the special a 10oz Rib Cap Steak. The wedge salad is the best in town. Would highly recommend, Baldamar's was recommend to me. I look forward to returning.

Kayla Johnson

Food is kinda pricey but so worth it! Everything on their menu is well seasoned and cooked to perfection with nice portion sizes, so you definitely are getting your money's worth. Service was great and the atmosphere was really relaxing. Definitely a place to eat at again.

Chad Kennedy

Excellent food and service!! Wow!!

June Y

Robust brunch buffet. Lots of delicious options! Great atmosphere. Perfect for groups and conversations! Excellent service and friendly staff made it a memorable experience! ☺️ Had bottomless mimosas and a Bloody Mary 🥂

Duane K

I would highly recommend this restaurant if you're looking for a good steak, it rivals PS steak, Mannys, etc. The service has significantly improved, our server Ben was very knowledgeable of the menu and attentive. As far as ambience, we sat in the back area which was significantly quieter than the bar dining area. Dinner conversation would be challenging in the bar area without noticeably raising your voice. Critiques, I enjoy some type of bread with my meal and the options were limited. The table was a little small, it was difficult to accommodate drinks, apps, app plates, silverware, etc. Not a deal breaker, but it was an issue. Overall, great date night location and prices are reasonable for an upscale dining experience.

Joseph Brock

Baldamar? Great steak in a suburb?? Yeah. I’m definitely loving this place. The food is great. Wine selection is surprisingly good, and the cocktails look cray. Having just moved from the bay, the prices weren’t too bad, but it is definitely an upscale restaurant. Steaks are the most expensive option on the menu, but also worth the price. My prime cut fillet was very good and rivales that off the downtown joints. Place was busy, but we will see how much of the traffic was from opening day... I’ll be watching this restaurant’s future with great interest.

Cindi Rella

Another great experience tonight! Micheal (mgr) and Rene (server) were spectacular. The food is great and the atmosphere is wonderful. We definitely recommend.

tvang241

Our waitress was awesome. She was very knowledgeable and delivered great service. The shrimp was probably the best thing. Everything else was over salted (steak, fries, calamari, even dessert) or WAY too oily and wasnt able to finish the expensive dinner. The wagu was also tough. Overall the experience was good, the food was not to par.

Robert Bradley

Get your wallets ready and your stomach too. Great steak house with great & amazing staff service. 5 star meals with 5 star service!

Ian buckley

Best Brunch I've had! The Espresso Martini was perfect! Prime Rib cooked to perfection! The Buffet was stocked with very delicious breakfast selections! We will definitely be back

J Maynor

The waitress Amanda W. is exceptional. It is rare to find such skill in any profession. And the food was also good. Worth every penny. Take every recommendation. You won’t regret it. Amanda claims the other waiters are as good. I would have to see it to believe it.

Elizabeth Bratton

I am encouraging everyone to check out Baldamar. The food is amazing, the service is wonderful. The manager was so cool he came to our table and talked with us and had great comradarie. You will not be disappointed at all. We officially have a new restaurant Thank you Bakdamar for the greatest birthday dinner 1st impression experience .

Benjamin Heiniger

Repeat offender. The Staff are always friendly and professional. I try something different every time and have never been disappointed. Do yourself a favor and order medium rare. The chefs know what they are doing.

Daniel Hewhodareswins

Fantastic service, Fantastic food (except the prime rib sandwich, it wasn't good).

Emily Walker

Excellent restaurant, they Definitely know what they are doing. The flavors in their dishes blend together so flawlessly and their steaks are cooked to perfection! Definitely worth the visit if you are in the area. Servers have great knowledge on their menu items, and are very attentive.

Michael Cady

Amazing food. The burger was one of the best I've ever had. Sweet potato fries were also really good.

Nia Wilson

I don’t usually leave reviews but this place was PHENOMENAL! I can’t believe we have a place like this in MN. I usually travel to places like Mastro’s for a good meal so I’m so happy to find great food nearby! This is probably the closest thing you can get to 5 STAR dining in MN.

Nem

Ok, this is a seriously good restaurant. Visited first time few days ago, and I'm very pleased with service and the food. I could not recommend Baldamar enough. Going back in few days, and I'm really looking forward to trying out the menu further.

Sal

We came here on Valentine's day and the service, food, and dessert were amazing. We definitely want to come back here again. The owner is also a part owner of a restaurant in Wayzata that we love as well.

SarahV Scott

The food was really good. We tried several different apps and entrees. We liked some better tha. Others but they all tasted really good. Service was outstanding.

Andrew Attia

Dined in at the bar on a Wed night. The place was extremely busy. The food is very mediocre. My strip stake was not fresh, but still a nice cut. Drinks were ok. It took the bartender literally 20 seconds to make my old fashioned. Bartender was repeatadle on their phone throughout service. At one point the other bartender had to step in and take our order while the other bartender was on their phone texting lol. Lots of reviews saying this is the best place ever...thats a joke trust me. Way too busy to give extremely high quality This place isn't even in the same league as Porterhouse or Manny's

Julie Guyott

Amazing. Natural ingredients. Fresh seafood! Best rated for their steaks. All true!

Scott Allison

Ordered rare steak, cool center. Got medium/well. Offered to refire my steak. Chose to keep it to eat with the rest of my table. While not what I ordered was still tasty.

Badger State

Awesome experience. Cole was our server in the bar area and he was awesome. He intertained us throughout dinner. We had a variety of great food. Lamb chops, filet, pork shank. Brussel sprouts are delicious For desert we tried the creme Brule and the tiramisu. It's a pricey place but great for a special occasion.

Sidney Bryson

Excellent! Had the Ribeye and it was to perfection. The Lobster Mac and Cheese was world eating

Mary Jo Quay

Beautiful restaurant, open kitchen, service was friendly and attentive. We ordered Lobster roll and would have eaten a 2nd, but I couldn't. Server brought us a dessert on the house, couldn't have asked for more.

Nicholas Sullivan

ANNA!!! So the restaurant is gorgeous, the food is top notch, all of it worth the hefty price tag. Really, totally justified. Cheers to who ever made this happen, but the service makes the experience and Anna laid it down from start to finish! Thank you Anna for the great experience!

Kai Dong

First time here and the food is awesome. Great oysters, scallops and tasty premium steaks, the beef flavor really comes through in the aging. Their Old Fashioned's are delicious as well. Our waitress was really great. Will come back again for sure.

Erica Brown

My 1st time here completely enjoyed myself great experience. Would definitely dine here again, delicious food wonderful service

Lauren Brooks

IF YOU'RE READING THIS AND THINKING OF TRYING THIS PLACE. Don't think just go enjoy and absolutely amazing meal in a beautiful atmosphere with a very friendly staff service!

Toya DuPree

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this place...I just wish they had more chicken opinions even just a pan seared chicken breast. I don't eat red meat or seafood so it limits me, but I will NEVER stop going here!

ML Hung

Friendly services, delicious foods , insightful environments.

Ray Bear

Great steaks Great sides Great service. Server was very helpful and knowledgeable of menu.

Kyle Henning

Fantastic restaurant. We had one of the best servers I've ever had at a restaurant. The steak was great, the old fashioned was fantastic. They also had great truffle fries

John Bandy

Excellent dinner of sea bass and prime ribeye. Service was great. Appetizers were wonderful. It was very pleasant to experience.

Christine Hulasare

We discovered Baldamar during restaurant week a few years ago and have been going regularly ever since. Food is amazing, service is fantastic and the vibe is always good.

Judy Eckerman

First time for lunch. Lovely place. Sat in the bar. Very impressive. Not many places around like Baldamar. Spendy but worth it. Very special.

David Newton

Spendy, but well worth it. If you want fine dining and great drinks, without the hassle of going into Minneapolis or St. Paul, then give this restaurant a shot.

Joel Dickey (Golden Scalpel Breakers)

Phillip is an absolutely outstanding server. Personable and knowledge of menu superb. Old fashion = Amazing...The tattooed dude I did not get his name but made a mean one. Well done. Then the food. .Mouth watering and absolutely 💯 great tasting. Had the ribeye, Sarah had the sea bass and we started with the strimp (spicy and outstanding.) But then came the Brussel Sprouts.. halved, pan seared, and fried. Quite possibly one of the best things I have tasted in my life. If your. Sprout hater. You will hate no more. And then closed out with a mud pie. Which I have no words for because the last taste bud was well pleased. Well done crew. I actually looked for something to complain about. Not really but when I write a review I like to post the full experience. And the only thing was the 8pm reservation turned into 9pm. But I would assume people are finally getting out and with capacity issues they made us wait in the car until people cleared out. Nothing they could really do about it. Pricey experience yet worth the adventure for our anniversary. Thank you Baldamar

Janice Millford

Simply one of the best dining experiences we have had on the Twin Cities. Food, ambiance, wine list, decor and service were excellent. Check out the bathrooms too!!

Pao Xiong

Great service and food! Wonderful design and decor! We would definitely go again!

Evan Murdock

Went here for an anniversary. Atmosphere is awesome, and the service was amazing. My wife's bass was great, and their fries were incredible. My steak was just okay. It may be the type of cut, rib-eye, that I didn't really like. I have had better steak at much cheaper places. But again, maybe next time I'll opt for a serloin.

darryl Barnes

We spent our anniversary at Baldamar. And we were impressed as soon as we walked in. And were greeted with a smile by the greeter, who told us of the options we had to choose from. And what type of seating we would like. Then comes Amanda. With her smile as she grace us with her presence. In her on subtle way she interest us in what they have to offer. But with a twist she suggested some delicacies. And we take her advice. She’s pleasant and very knowledgeable of the menu. We get are drinks and appetizers and are impress. Then along comes Micheal the manager to see that we are enjoying ourselves and are we being taken care of. And if there’s anything he can get for us. He then summons someone to get what we ask for. The food was A-1, the service was exceptional. We enjoyed our anniversary to the fullest thanks to you and your staff. Thanks again Amanda.

Roshan Rajkumar

What a great place for dinner, whether surf or turf. Nick, our server, was gracious and patient. He was not hurrying us to the finish and made great suggestions on cocktails and wine pairings. He did not press one menu item over another, and gave great appetizer and side suggestions too. The bone-in ribeye my wife ordered was prepared to perfection and the brandy sauce was a perfect accent. The sea bass and salmon entrees were generous portions, cooked to order and perfection. Though the hit was the Life is Bread and the paired butters and dips. The warm, fresh made baguette was perfectly chewy and crunchy, and asking for reloads of bread and dips was done for a small additional cost. We loved the meal, service and atmosphere. And though a drive from the western suburbs, it is worth it.

Sharon Tolva

Went for lunch happy hour with a group of 5 and had a table in the bar. The waiter was very professional and attentive. Some of the group ordered lunch from the happy hour menu and others ordered from the main menu. Everyone enjoyed their meals (burgers, wings, lobster sliders, BLAT were all delicious).

kale severson

Went for my parents birthdays. Brunch was great. Many options and everything was delicious. Service was phenomenal. Our server checked in frequently and kept our cups full and the restaurant manager stopped by for a chat, he is hilarious! I highly recommend. We'll be back in a couple weeks. Food and environment were so good I forgot to snap a picture.

jeff koesling

First time visit, service was fantastic. We met Michael who was so good to Our table, Thank You Mike! Will return for sure...Steaks were phenomenal....the bread was the best I've ever had...don't pass it up!!!

Ryan P

The staff went out of their way to make our celebration special! Food was good and so we're the drinks! Also the place has a cool vibe. Overall would recommend.

Elyse Jenkins

The food, service and ambiance were all FIVE STARS! You will not go wrong and enjoy yourself for sure!

Danny Mishek

Unbelievable service and fantastic food. The New York strip was cooked to perfection. Perfect char on outside with the perfect requested temp on the inside. The Sea Bass was so tender and flavorful. These two entrees with the perfectly paired sides made for a delightful evening with friends.

Ben Koch

We had a great experience here! Made a reservation for an anniversary dinner here and was not disappointed. The steaks were outstanding and the sides were also very delicious. We both ordered our own steaks and shared a salad and two sides. Everything was delicious. The server was very attentive and informative regarding all of our questions. The signature cocktails were also very tasty. Our meal was pricy, but worth it. Finally, about halfway through the dinner the hostess brought over a card recognizing our special occasion which was not requested or expected but a very nice touch.

Smith Smith

I am giving them 3 stars because I have frequented this establishment but at the moment, I feel like giving them a big 0! I have sent multiple requests via the website request to book a party of 20 people and not one response. I finally call to try and schedule this party and am told that I have to email as that is the ONLY way the event coordinator communicates. I explained repeatedly that clearly the email method is not working as either it is the wrong link on the website or my request is not being responded too. I begged to leave a message and have someone call me back and against the staffs will they finally took a message. The person who took the message called me back 6 minutes later to tell me that they do not book out large parties on the weekends and the weekend I requested they already had other large parties to accommodate which contradicts itself. I then asked if the bar area was first come first serve and she stated the bar is but the tables around it are reservation only. Of course my next question is great can I reserve the tables in the bar area, mind you this is between lunch and dinner rush, and she said no you can't reserve the tables for a large party. I said well what if each family in my party wanted to do their own reservation again I was denied. So what I am hearing is we do not want your business, see ya bye. So it is worthless trying to book a large group party here however in general on a smaller two to four person scale I have had decent experiences, expensive but okay once in awhile but after the way I was treated this time I do not know that I will be back for quite some time.

Bob Brown

Jennifer was Amazing and the food was off the hook!! Best Anniversary Dinner in 6 years!!

sjjohns67

I really wanted to like this place but my 1st impression wasn't the best. We walked in and 3 hostesses greeted us and they were dressed very sloppy. One was even wearing her bra on the outside of her clothes. Kind of tacky for an upscale place. I would think they would at least have a dress code. Our waiter was awesome, very attentive. Good job. I ordered the ribs, they were very tough with very little meat on them. My husband ordered the lobster roll. He said it had a good flavor but on his second bite in, there was something hard. He showed it to the waiter and he took it back to show whoever. In a couple minutes a manager came out and said that they think it was a stem that got in there in processing. A stem with a 90° corner? Now that's funny for a lobster roll and fries. Where would a stem come from? We did not get offered any discounts, just an oops, sorry. It left us with a "yuck" feeling. Sorry Baldamar, I'm going somewhere else.

Shaun Rae Mcdonald

I eat at 5 star restaurants but this one here…. Is the best of the best. Prices are in line to the quality of food you get. The GM Mike -there is no other. He’ notices everything and makes you feel like your a billionaire with no questions. I have NEVER eaten at such a great place where the food and services that I give 10 ⭐️.

Nickolas Gerr

First and foremost, our server Ben was amazing and if this review was based solely on his performance, it would be 5 stars. We had a party of 11 in a private room. Ill get right to the MEAT of it, pun intentionally intended. At that price point, i expect everybody's order to be close to perfect..pretty much everybody was underwhelmed by the level of doneness of their steaks. Several people sent them back. Some steaks were over cooked, others undercooked, and I was very surprised by this. In fact, just the day before, a few of us had steaks at Golden Corral and there was consensus that the Golden Corral steaks were markedly better. Mind you Golden Corral is 14 dollars all you can eat, Baldamar is 70+ just for the steak, no sides or drink. Anywhom... I only ordered a chicken Ceasar and the chicken breast was over cooked and very dry. I'm not a picky person, and I've literally never sent food back in my life. I didnt send this back either, but I didnt eat much of it at all and overall was quite disappointed in the food. My mother wants me to note that she was definitely urging me to send the chicken Ceasar back. I've also ordered take away twice in the past. First time was ok, 2nd time they got my order wrong and charged me for a more expensive dish than they gave me in the bag.. So that's that. Maybe the chef had an off night, im not mad, just disappointed. I may try them again in the future but I'm definitely not in a rush.. Again, the service was amazing, Ben was cool. The ambiance is pretty nice too. Hopefully the food quality makes strides towards matching the rest of the experience.

Carli Schumacher

The staff here is just the best. My 3rd time here and it never disappoints. The host helped us find a spot at the bar. Our bartender, Wendy, was friendly, funny and attentive. The manager jumped behind the bar and checked on all the guests while helping with service. The food is always perfect!!! We had filets, mushrooms and cauliflower... everything was exceptional! Baldamar is quickly becoming our favorite steakhouse...my 1 wish I'd they would add escargot to the menu. I couldn't recommend this restaurant more highly!

Anthony Mohlin

Delicious!!! Highly recommend. The Sea Bass was made to perfection. The desserts were huge and did not disappoint. The staff was amazingly attentive. Will absolutely be back.

Brandi S (Calcifer BB)

I love this place from the food, atmosphere, and service. Nik was our server when we dined in and made our experience grand!

Derek Powell

Amazing food and drinks, and the staff goes above and beyond to make sure your experience is perfect.

Ben Zimmerman

Excellent experience. I usually shy away from ordering steaks at restaurants because I can do better at home. Baldamar did an excellent job with the ribeye I ordered. I was pleasantly surprised. All of the side dishes I ate were also delicious. I will certainly be going back!

Rick Mclemore

A totally awesome experience .. everything was on point and didn't expect the seafood to be the star of the evening.. The oysters on the 1/2 shell very good to the whiskey scallops that were amazing and perfectly cooked .. last the chilean sea bass was the best I had in years .. steaks were perfectly cook also and very good but the seafood was memories for the future .. The service was some of the best we have had and in a long time our waitress was top shelf her name was Yaretzy. With all the food the table stayed organized and knew when to come back and not hover over us . Perfect timing .. over all this was a perfect meal for the family and we will come back ..

Geno Benshoof

Fantastic steak, and the best key lime pie I've ever had

Allison Boreen

So yummy, tremendous staff, and such a cool ambiance!

Jeff Matthies

If you haven't been, you must go. Very nice.. Very classy..

Nick Shatek

I expected to be amazed by the food, which I certainly was, but what most surprised me was the service. Simply top notch. Highly recommended.

Colleen Regan

Very upscale, loved the atmosphere and old style woodwork, food and service was good and shall return!

Hoothooters

We had the best experience ever, our waitress Mckenzie was phenomenal, bubbly, knowledgeable, and kind. The food was outstanding we eat alot of steaks and this by far is one of the best ribeyes I've had. The flavor was very good and the filet mignon was very tender both cooked perfectly and very juicy! The drinks are very good! Will be our new spot for sure!

Shawn Hartmann

The food is absolutely amazing. Always recommend having any of the steak here, filet and ribeye are outstanding. Service was fast and organized!

Patrick Kimbrough

Gathered here for a birthday party and had a wonderful experience. Our server was Ashley L. She was very nice/ accommodating and had some good recommendations. All our food was good except the chicken wings, they were over salty. There was some confusion between the menu online and the menu in person but in the end the burger I ordered was perfect. My friend had the salmon and was impressed. Will definitely return for a nice date night.

Aaron T

Great wings! Love the fresh cut fries, drinks were amazing. Bartender Ashley is the best!

Charger Forme

Baldamar is my go to place for excellent food and service. I was disappointed today to find out that their brussel sprout appetizer is flash fried. Somehow I had it in my head that a great place like this would pan fry them in olive oil. Nope, they do into the same frying oil used for french fries. Not the healthy option I had in my head... Other than that, I enjoyed my entree - I just have no healthy options here for appetizers.

Jason Gudim

Maybe it was a bad week... Maybe it was a odd time. The service was ok... The food was just as tasty as you would expect it. Being a nitpick the one first things I noticed about the place was something that they should definitely immediately do... There is a tremendous amount of hair & dust on the front desk wall, which is made out of wood if I remember correctly. My visit there was around the beginning of April 2022 so it may have been dusted by this point. I still give it 4 out of 5 stars. Either way, I'll be back at some point, it just may be a while. :)

Isabella Stevens

The food at Baldamar is amazing. Five stars for that! The best steak I've ever had, hands down. The drink menu was also lovely. The waiter was friendly and knowledgeable, and things were brought to our table in a very timely manner, despite the restaurant being full. The seating was very comfortable. There were only two drawbacks. The first was that our reservation was for 6:45, and our table wasn't ready until after 7:00. There was no place to sit and wait for our table to be ready, so we were crammed in the entryway. The second drawback was the noise level. We had to shout at times to hear each other over the din of the other diners. Hanging some tapestries or something on the walls would go a long way to improve that aspect of the experience. Overall, however, we were very impressed! The vibe was sophisticated but new and fun. The price felt fair for the quality of food. We loved it and we will certainly be back!

Melissa Jones

The food & service are equally exceptional. The prime rib sandwich is the best I've ever had! so tender & flavorful served on a bakery soft toasted hoagie bun. I would also recommend the margarita, a nice pour & not too tart.

Ezra Fagge'Tt II

First time experience was absolutely spectacular. Out waiter "concierge" JD, went above and beyond to make sure we made the right selections and our food was prepared to our desire. The atmosphere was proper and the food was even better. Ask for JD for a top-notch dining experience.

Rakesh Abad

Food and atmosphere was great. Lobster mac and cheese is a must! Beef dip sandwich was bigger than my plate lol. Great portions. If you get the 15 layer chocolate cake, have at least 4 other people to share it with lol.

Karen Alm

Fantastic place! We've been here twice and both times had a phenomenal experience. This is a higher end steakhouse, but worth every penny, from service to food quality. We will be back for sure!

Ava

My first time going to this establishment and the food was delicious. I had the lobster roll, the bread was soft and slightly toasted with a large amount of delicious lobster filling. The fries and aioli dipping sauce went well with the entree. I will definitely be back for another.

Jessica Hampton

Sea bass was great (complex, nicely balanced flavors and an excellent crisp on the crust). It was recommended by the supremely personable Lindsay. And I highly recommend a visit to Baldamar--see if you can make it for restaurant week!

Christopher Pate (Champ of the day)

New place extremely great staff food was awesome,manger was very kind wanted to know our experience

Doug R

Baldamar Brunch was AMAZING!!!! Staff was thoughtful and a cut above. Refilled my coffee without asking when I went for a second plate, staffer came by to let us know buffet would close in 10 min (but didn't close until a little while longer), hostess team was top not h and organized. It was a special moment being treated like that.

Jan Dunlap

There today with my family for the Valentines Day Sunday Brunch. Although we didn't try everything the spread was bountiful! The only thing that was not on the menu were the assorted breads and spreads. Somewhat dissapointing as the reviews on the spreads sounded delicious. Our server was absolutely awesome,Pasqale!!!!! Bartender made top notch drinks too! First visit. Will return for the brunch soon!!!!

Angela Denise

The food was delicious, the customer service was great I came for a birthday dinner! Now my favorite restaurant!

S M

I was in a group of 6 gals on a Saturday evening. Getting too old when going out for dinner does me in! My old fashioned was wonderfully strong and tasty; I had a headache before the food came. We were sitting in the middle of the main dining room and I had to strain to hear people. I gave up when the alcohol headache came on and started to smile and nod like my dad before he got hearing aids. Next time I come, I'm eating dinner at 4 pm so I can hear my companions. I ordered the 8 oz filet mignon and regretted ordering it medium. I should have ordered it medium rare or rare. We ordered 4 or 5 appetizers to share and several of us liked the mushrooms the best. Someone ordered a chocolate cake for us to share. It tasted like coffee and I would have ate the entire thing if people weren't around.

José Bueno

Amazing service, great food, and a bold atmosphere. You can tell they invested millions into this place. I am proud to have found a new stomping ground for lunch! Being from Texas this place makes me feel at home 🤠 …

Laura Redland

Wonderful food. Be prepared for a higher than average price tag but it is totally worth it. We had the grill pressed chicken and New York strip with the street corn. Truffles fries for an appetizer. We may go back for an appetizer night as there were so many great options. The street corn was a definite hit. The aged prime New York lived up to it's name and the potatoes that came with the chicken were addicting. The only complaint we had was the chicken was slightly dry but everything was flavorful.

Louis Gorfain

The ambiance and steak rank as the best in the Cities, even surpassing Manny’s or St Paul Grill. As a New Yorker, I know a great steak house and Baldamor is right up there. Alas, the server, Ben, was more obsequious than hospitable. He spilled a drink and didn’t bother to wipe it down, much less apologize. Even when called on it. When it came to describing the menu he blabbered on with all manner of culinary cliches: “flavor profiles” et al. Laughable. All in all, however. a minor irritation in an otherwise sumptuous and delectable evening.

Bob Jerue

The meal was fantastic, stuffed lobster tail, sea bass, and skirt steak. The cocktails out of this world. The service was amazing. It's definitely a birthday dinner must! We are going back. It is a little spendy but oh so worth it.

The Baldamar is a beautiful, classy restaurant specializing in a menu featuring different cuts of beef. It also serves seafood and a tasty array of starters and appetizers. My husband and I were invited by a friend to dine there and were disappointed in our meals. The salads were banal: leaf lettuce topped with balsamic and vinegar dressing. My husband said that my salads are much better. The Baldamar salad had a few carrot slices and no other veggies. My $24 burger was heavily salted and topped with gooey cheese that ran down my fingers as I ate. Our server described an $80 burger made from Japanese waygu beef. For $80 I would expect the burger to feed a family of four. The roasted brussel sprouts were very good. My friend ordered the wedge salad plus shrimp to share - most of which were left on her plate uneaten. My husband and I ordered coffee that was served tepid rather than piping hot. Service was very good, which is what you'd expect for a high-end restaurant. We could have done without the lengthy spiel about the quality of the Baldamar's meat and seafood offerings. We were ravenous and just wanted to order our meals. By the time we left, the place was packed so apparently the majority of diners love the Baldamar. My husband and I were underwhelmed by the food and overwhelmed by the prices.

Bas Barath

The service was good and the ambience is upscale. For a restaurant with a bull head on their logo, their steaks are sub-par. Tried steak two different times. Prime rib and fillet mignon were both not good. It's not the done-ness or the cut per day, but most likely the method of preparation. The steak tastes as of it was cooked in steam. Maybe it will float the boat to some.

Cole Ford

I forgot to take pictures of everything else that I had while I was there. This place is fantastic, and it’s a great atmosphere. Very highly recommend going to the pairings.

Jordan Grahek

We had an excellent experience at Baldamar. For celebratory dinners, we typically go downtown, but multiple friends mentioned that this steakhouse was even better than the big names in Minneapolis and Saint Paul. After dining here, I would agree. The atmosphere and professional staff made for that “wow” factor you look for in a high end dining experience. We arrived 10 minutes early to our reservation and they couldn’t seat us right away. No big deal. We went outside to their nice, calm patio and chatted. Staff came out immediately to serve us waters. Within 5 minutes, one of the restaurant managers came out to apologize for the delay and bought us our first round of drinks, despite the fact that it still wasn’t our reservation time. This attention to their patrons really makes you feel special. From there, I knew we were in for a treat. The old fashioneds are excellent. The filet and king crab legs literally melt in your mouth. The oysters were impeccably fresh and the dessert was decadent. Plus, we didn’t need to trek downtown. We will happily return!

Jake Schuster

Every time I go to Baldamar they outdo themselves from the time before. Who would have thought that a stand alone restaurant in a mall parking lot would be one of the best restaurants to patronize in the Twin Cities. The decor, the service, the drinks, the food: It’s all spectacular. Indulge yourself and order the lobster Mac n Cheese but also add the Oscar preparation to it! Out of this world! Support local restaurants and treat yourself and your loved ones while you’re at it.

Maryam S

We were pleasantly surprised by this restaurant. Walking up to the front door of the restaurant, I said to my husband this reminds me of Scottsdale, AZ and it’s high end aesthetic. The food did not disappoint, nor did the decor. I had the sea bass and it was reallllly yummy. My husband and mother both had steak, and they loved theirs as well. Love that we don’t have to worry about parking here. Well done!

Breon Nagy

Super friendly and knowledgeable staff. One of the best ribeyes I've ever had.

kevin dodd

I've been in Minneapolis a month, this is HANDS DOWN the best food I've had since I've been here. Great Customer service too

Mark Hurley

Everything was wonderful. From the service, our server was awesome, to the food, everything was so delicious. Also clean bathrooms 🚻. The one thing I have to say is the lettuce in the lobster 🦞 roll, NO! Not a good idea 😕. It was not good at all, it made it watery? and took away from the taste of the lobster and tarragon Aioli. The scallops are awesome 👌 👏

Marilyn Riley

We had one of the best meals ever at Baldamar last night. The steaks were cooked to perfection. The sides and appetizers were over the top with layers of flavors and the wait staff was attentive and knowledgeable. Bravo!!!

Jim Hansen

Our waitress was superb. A full service dinning experience!

Aaron Almquist

This place was amazing! First timer, but not a last timer. Ribeye was perfect! Crab was perfect! The waiter was great. The place is pretty expensive, but I can say it was worth the price. Great atmosphere. Didn't want to leave.

Adam C

Went there on a busy Saturday evening for our first time. Knowing Baldamar has the same ownership of 6Smith, we decided to try this steakhouse and were blown away by the service, atmosphere and food. This place blows the typical Minnesota steakhouses out of the water. If you want the downtown feel with better food and service this is the place to go. Kudos to Phillip our server for making the entire meal outstanding. Will be going back on a regular basis.

Emily

Downtown feel and taste without leaving the suburbs! Prices are high due to high end quality and menu selection. Plus side, you will never question which restroom to go into 😜 …

Tammy Mellin

Amazing food, refreshing cocktails and great service. Pricey, but well worth it! Ask for Aaron!

Andrea Belanus

Great food, drinks and our waitress was wonderful!!🍸🍸 …

Wendy Daniels

The atmosphere here is great, as are the drinks. We have only enjoyed apps here (in the bar area) & they are very good, especially the meatballs. Both times we've visited, though, children have been seated in the bar area & both times, we left earlier than we planned because of it. I have kids but when I'm sitting in the bar at a nice restaurant, I don't want to be hit by kids running around nor do I want to listen to a toddler whining the entire time. I wish they'd seat them in the main restaurant.

Bob Lex

The service was excellent. Lobster mac excellent but a shade too long under the broiler. Cauliflower not great. Also under the broiler more than a little too long and still not cooked. Nachos were amazing. Hanger steak was not bad but close to that mark. Only a couple small tender bites on the whole thing. Could barely cut it with a steak knife.

Black River

Ordered the salmon. The waitress said it was wild caught after I asked. It was cooked perfectly but not seasoned at all? Didn't even taste salt. Anyhow it was good and the corn and peppers underneath were seasoned.

Andrea Hammel Wollak

Wait staff was great! Cocktail were amazing. Everything was cooked perfectly, just over all meal was not as much of a "wow" that I was expecting for the price point.

Garret Wright

Been comming here for three years straight for our wedding anniversary. We have an incredible experience every time. Highly recommend the Brussel sprouts, mash potatoes and "Bread is Life" appetizer. Oysters were good although they didn't have blue points this year (2022).

Todd neal

This is not a high end streak house not even close WELL the prices say it is but boring and a lot of misses on the menu I don't mind paying any price for quality food but 17.00 for the extra BLING lol maybe 1.5ozs of cold bearnaise and maybe 1.5ozs cold crab not cool .. baldamar who I'll be saying tomorrow not a rememberable place except for our waitress and the manager who stopped in our private room and turned the music on and ask if we want the temp. Adjusted.

Zach Mathson

Really good experience there last night. All of the food was really good. The ribeye steak was one of the best I've had at a restaurant. Thick, tender, perfectly cooked. I will be back!

Kelly Kinzer

This is a go-to date night for my husband and I because we love this restaurant! The cocktails are unique and delicious and the food will knock your socks off. We try something new every time we come and have never been disappointed. The staff is friendly and professional and we always leave smiling.

Jenish Bhakta

The best steak ever, amazing food and service

Iona Flynn

We reserved the private room for a casual business dinner (16 diners), room was the great size for a smaller group. Beautifully decorated, service was excellent, timing for the food being served was perfect. All the food was wonderful and prepared as requested, our waiter JB was terrific. Would highly recommend this room for an smaller lunch/dinner and the restaurant as a whole, thank you Micheal and staff!

Steve Thompson

The bread is the best I've ever had! I go to lots of nice restaurants and this one is up on top of the list. Every time I go everything is executed perfectly. The service is always spot on and some amazing flavors going on.

Luke Wiley

First time here and it was great. Kevin our server was probably in the top 10 of servers we've ever had, and that's saying a lot! The food was awesome, definitely will be returning for more.

Anthony Holloman

The food here is so good that the staff won’t even ask you “Is everything good so far?” They just scope out your plate, see that you’re enjoying it, and continue going about their shift…at least that’s my benefit of the doubt assumption. I ordered the Miso * Sea Bass and I promise you that my taste buds were not prepared for such delectable flavors. My soul was touched. I paused in joy after my first bite. The only thing that could have made my experience better was if the menu showed the macronutrients in the meal or at least the calories. I was expecting a heavier side with the fish, but I didn’t get that. My meal turned out to be keto since it had a negligible amount of carbs in the salad. The meal tasted excellent, but maybe add a label that says “keto” to avoid confusion. I could also just read the ingredients more thoroughly and ask more questions. I ended up eating some of a friend’s mashed potatoes which went well with the sea bass, but also was a lot on my friend’s plate. Portioning seems like an issue, but if they can get that correct without surprises, this restaurant gets 5 stars hands down relative to my first experience.

TJ Dubbs

Awesome restaurant. Went here for an anniversary and was not disappointed. Food was excellent, they have some very good cuts of meat here. Drinks were innovative and also very good. Service was amazing, super friendly. Would gladly go back. Please add another location in the south metro!

Jamie Frisbie

Very nice interior, and great staff. I had the spicy Cajun chicken sandwich. Large portion, great crunchy crust but not much flavor. I did not have it, but the bacon on the burgers looks like something I need to try.

Deborah Campbell

Beautiful place with exceptional service. Every order was tastefully described upon ordering. Our group of 15 were all very pleased with all aspects of our Dining experience.

Kristina Dustin

No other restaurant is better than this. The food is our #1 and will forever return for as long as we live. Thank you for everything that you provide in your beautiful home.

Peter Schmidt

Excellent food! The filet my friend had ordered was wonderful. The filet tasted so good that I regretted my choice of the lamb chops. The chops were good, but the steak was much better. My wife had the pork shank and she enjoyed it. Besides the filet, I also enjoyed the "bourbon bacon" appetizer which should be called bourbon pork belly appetizer, because that was not bacon, but awfully tasty.

michael wagner

Great atmosphere. Excellent servers and attentive management. Amazing food. 100% don't skip the chocolate cake...best I think I have ever had! Nice to get a great meal and not have to go into downtown.

Sabrina Hicks

The Best Restaurant Hands Down! From The Service, The Food, The Conversation, The Ambiance! Everything Is A+! MIKE & MEL !!! I Have Never Had Such A Amazing Time At Dinner Before With The Hosts!! Literally Every Single Time I Come Mike Is Making Sure Everyone Is Good And Taken Care Of! Mel, I Love Your Energy, Your Talks, I’m Sure Your The Life Of The Party At Work (My Fellow Aquarius Sister) I’ve Been Here About 10 Times (Dont Judge Me) And Can’t Wait To Go Back! I Love Everything About This Place!! It’s So Welcoming! I Suggest This Place To Everyone I Know! You Won’t Be Disappointed!

Marnie Beard

One of our favorite restaurants in the Twin Cities! It never disappoints!

Rachel Artig

I’m seriously obsessed with this place. The vibes on the inside are incredible - very cute interior design. I could probably eat my weight in the flash fried Asian brussells sprouts - TOO GOOD. They have an amazing fish sandwich as well and the bread plate with all their sauces and butter for it. You won’t regret going!!

Belinda Walker

Awesome Sunday brunch

Owen Rickey

The food, wine, and service is absolutely phenomenal. The one area that is lacking is the cocktails. We had four from their list and they were not good. I really hope they change their recipes, because it is a shame that this is the one area they do not perform. Again, great food. Steak, short rib, and ooooooo the sea bass, mmmmmmm yum.

Dan Nguyen

We came here a couple times for Sunday brunch (buffet) and have not had a bad experience. We had reservations both times, so we got seated immediately. The staff was very attentive and very polite, so we could not have asked for better service. Overall, the service was amazing and the food was great. We will be back!

Ryan Knott

Excellent service, food, and ambiance. The street corn appetizer is a true win for all.

Sandy Riegel

If you love steak, excellent service and great drinks, this isy9ur place

awuj sanmy

Ambience was romantic, food was great and our server was the best!

Luna Maldonado

Not bad but not out of this world. A few of their cocktails seem to be a rip off of some other popular restaurants and are not as well done which is lazy and disappointing. They didn't have the bacon and bourbon 2 times when we went so we've never tried that and the portions are rather small. My husband also felt his meat was dry. Outside of that things were not bad. The tuna poke was smashing and the Calimari was different but good. All and all its what you can expect from a suburban MN eatery.

Griffin Jerke

Everything was amazing. We had lunch on a Sunday for our anniversary and everything was perfect. The food came out quick & everything was spot on. We entered with really high expectations and Ballarat met them all. KEVIN G was our server and he was great. Wings, Bread for Life, and lobster mac n cheese for apps were great. Sea bass and rib eye for main course. Brunch was ending before we ate and that looks like a must.

Scott Johnson

The food was phenomenal! Service was excellent as well. Highly recommend visiting for a great meal.

Dionne Gharamu-Nrumaachi

My family celebrated my little sister's birthday at Baldamar and we had an exquisite experience! The lighting in the restaurant, the art, and the interior design created an intimate, welcoming atmosphere. Our server was very knowledgeable about the food preparation process and even the equipment and tools used to prepare the cuisine (he wasn't aggressively trying to sell specific plates - which was important for us). Every dish that we tasted was very well seasoned and the food was prepared in an impressive amount of time. It felt as if something was being delivered to our table every five minutes and it felt as if we had our main courses within 30 minutes of arriving. If you're looking for a special dining experience that's elegant and high-quality but still warm and social, I would recommend Baldamar.

Kevin Nelson

Best steak I've had at a restaurant in a long time. Shared most of the sides and they were all delicious. Highly recommend this place for an upscale outing.

Dana Raabe

We went for our anniversary and we wanted a nice place. They went out of their way to wish us a happy anniversary, gave us a card, and a free dessert. This was our first time at baldamar, and boy, did they make a great first impression! We will definitely be back!

Molly Knack

I had visited once for happy hour with my parents but we were in a rush so I didn’t feel like I could decide if I liked this restaurant. I returned last night with my boyfriend for his birthday. It was phenomenal our waiter and the manager were both awesome and very welcoming. we both will be returning. food was amazing couldn’t find it anywhere else.

tara Blaisdell

Everything about this place is amazing. The steak was top of the line and you have to try the jalapeño honey butter! It’s to die for. Our server Enrique gave us such an amazing experience. He was so knowledgeable about the menu and extremely personable! The manager Michael was also a great part of our dining experience. He had a genuine care for the guest. This was the most welcoming experience I’ve ever had while dining out. Coming from the service industry these guys are the best of the best!

Caiomhe's Corner

Good food, really good service, and the ambiance is really nice. Will recommend you to try it.

Julie Ballman

What an awesome upscale restaurant! Had the filet mignon and it was perfection. Wait staff was very attentive and on-site manager made the rounds at each table. Our group was very impressed with the top quality service and food.

Ben Etzkorn

I ordered a takeout meal for Christmas Eve, and every bite was spectacular. Definitely my favorite restaurant now in the area. The souse on the meatballs was tasty. The prime rib perfect. The lobster macaroni delightful. I will definitely be back.

K G

The food is always delicious! Great friendly staff.

Mike Raymond

Excellent food and our water, Berlin, was amazing. Friendly and her recommendations were perfect.

bill mills

This sister restaurant to 6Smith is dishing up some fantastic flavors in a beautiful venue. I've only been there twice but both selections (lobster roll and Blt sandwich) took a long time to eat because I had to stop and savor every bite. Amazing.

Kayla Agaga

Tonight was my first night here and oh my goodness. My fiancé and I were not disappointed! We had Aaron as a server and just his vibe was amazing let alone. He was super knowledgeable with the menu, and made great suggestions. The ambiance of the restaurant was phenomenal!!!! The food was up there with Ruth Chris and by far better than any Fogo. I highly recommend trying this place if you ever come across it. The price was well worth it and also shocking to us, given how much we ate and drank. This will definitely be our new go to!

Kate H

We loved our experience here! Our server Stacy was great! The food was amazing...We’re going to be having dreams about the scallops! The steaks were perfect, the truffle fries were sooo good, and the Brussels sprouts were awesome! Even my husband, who doesn’t like most vegetables, said they were the best Brussels sprouts he’s ever had. We will definitely be going back to Baldamar!

Joe Snyder

Loved the old fashioned. Twice baked potato was very dry. Truffle fries had zero truffle flavor. Lobster roll was very light on lobster, think I had two pieces. Everything else was good

Kirstin Poole

Spectacular food, service and atmosphere. The Stanley’s once again knocked it out of the park!!

Jennifer Blazek

Sunday brunch buffet was a AMAZING! Open until 2pm. Our server Paul was wonderful and attentive. The buffet host Peter was fabulous as well. All of the food was rich and flavorful, perfectly cooked. Cheesy hashbrowns, ham and mashed potatoes, prime rib, smoked salmon, I tried it all! And they have real desserts at brunch. The carrot cake and cheesecake are both exceptional. I will definitely be back in the evening to try their steaks. Our wedding anniversary is next month, so we already have a reservation!

Paul

Food could be kept warmer at the buffet. But staff and food was great 👍 …

Matthew McDonald

Best ribeye I have had in a long time! 💪 the Sous chef came to my Table to educate me about what I ordered and even sent out some different sauces and toppings to try with my steak! Highly recommend 💯 also the server (Kevin) was amazing. tied the whole experience together 🙌 …

Kristine

The manager Michael is a wonderful Man full of hospitality to a 5 star rating. Had a birthday dinner celebration there tonight in were treated like royalty. If you prefer your food with less or no spice suggest you talk to your server about items on the menu. Definitely a favourite night out spot for me

Ubah Abdi

Excellent customer service

Megan Nitti

Had a couple cosmos and a filet mignon tonight. This place is amazing- becoming a regular lately. 😅 …

Raymond Wold

Our favorite restaurant at the moment. Great staff, drinks, food and atmosphere.

Ruby Rhoades

Food was good and service was amazing. I signed up for the rewards so I can come enjoy some more delicious and amazing experience.

Sheila Marquis

Great happy hour, this is a picture of their Lobster sliders, they were awesome! Great food, service ( by Peter) , and ambience. My first visit but my girlfriend brought me there has she been there several times and loved it! I love a place that has great happy hour/ evening Ambiance-- dimmer lighting-- table lighting, warm plush cozy feeling , Etc and this place has it

Deanne Henderson

Just the best restaurant for dining out. 10 10 10 for food, service, and atmosphere. Restaurant is beautiful and is owned by a husband and wife team that obviously strives for excellence. Nice to experience a quality restaurant that isn't owned by a conglomerate

zoua xiong

Love love the mashed potato that came with braised pork shank that I ordered and it came out more on the dry side then I expected, they were very accommodating for getting me something else. Overall everything else we had was delicious. Definitely will go back again.

Zack Gibson

Absolutely loved this place. The service was top notch, our server Kevin and GM Michael made the dinner very memorable. The happy hour menu is incredible for what you get, and the Amaretto Cake is ridiculously good. I'd give it six stars if that were an option!

Tim Emanuel

Had an excellent dining experience this past weekend. Our waiter Darrell was top notch. He kept drinks full and made excellent suggestions when we asked. I had a ribeye that was excellent and the table shared truffle fries, lobster mac and cheese for our sides. Both were our of this world delicious. The table also shared the creme brulee and at Darrell's suggestion the 50 shades of chocolate which was an excellent choice. Left full and happy, will return for sure!

Tracie Bangert

Went here for our anniversary - amazing experience! My fiance emailed them ahead of time, and they reserved a large booth and had a dozen roses greeting us at the table. The service was wonderful, and it was by far some of the best food we ever had. We will definitely be back!

Nezell Bartlett

If you want a good steak this is the place to go. Service is always great drinks are good and so is the staff! Prices are fair for the quality of food and service.

Jon Renteria

Best steak that I ever had. It didn't need any extras. The sides were awesome. Took desert home. My wife brought me there after as a post military deployment treat.

Sarah Wandschneider

Our first time dining at Baldamar and all expectations were blown away! Our server Peter was exceptional--He was engaging and truly had passion in his work. The scallops and sea bass were prepared to perfection! So flavorful. Highly recommend--Can't wait to go back!

Diana Magnuson

My favorite go-to restaurant!! I’ve been coming here so many times already. Absolutely Love this place! So clean and beautiful 🤩 Food is delicious! Definitely recommend their happy hour Sunday menu! Amazing cocktails and food always! They have incredible pork belly Mac&Cheese!

Joy Morris

Celebrated our anniversary tonight. The atmosphere was very sophisticated. The served us complimentary wine and dessert. We ordered the 12oz filet which was the best we've ever experienced. Also the Panzanella salad was marvelous. Our server, Paul, was an absolute delight. We'll be back again and again.

Sherry Jackson

Staff are super friendly and have a great sense of humor. It always feels almost as welcoming as home when I come here. Everything I've tried on their menu seems tried and true. Can't go wrong here!

Jordan Hurguy

Always a fantastic experience when we eat at Baldamar. I have never been disappointed in anything I've ordered. The service has got to be the best service I've had anywhere. The team is always ready to make suggestions or explain the menus and seasonal items to help you make the perfect choice. The drinks are also incredible and the presentation of it all brings it to another level. This is always a top choice for a date or get together for dinner and drinks. I can't recommend this place enough!

Ashleigh Hampton

I hosted my sister's 35th birthday party in one of their private rooms in April. From start to finish Mel & Michael we're attentive, helpful, and ensured everything I needed or wanted was available. The food (my family comes here often) is always delicious and the atmosphere is great. I've always enjoyed having dinner at Baldamar, but the way my guest and I were treated during our private dinner was top tier. It left a very positive impression on me and my guest. How management alone handles things and the way we were treated by all staff, made me feel like a valued customer and I will always recommend them. For example, I brought a cake and specially made dessert shooters from an outside vendor. Well, I had to transport them and on the way they fell over and were pretty much ruined in my eyes. I was going to attempt to save them. Mel came in and instead of "offering" to help me, she "told" me lol she was going to help and have them fixed. They came back so beautiful and on a beautiful display. You would never know they were just ruined shortly before guest arrived. Mel did it out of kindness, I wasn't charged for their staff fixing something that was not sold or damaged by them. So again, thank you to all the staff and especially Mel & Michael for helping make my sister's birthday special.

Bill Parr

Andrew N is a great server, and served us a great meal. At no time were we rushed. The environment is modern with a nice vibe. The bacon and bourbon appetizer should be offered as a half order, as it is a lot of food for two. The steaks were cooked well and tasted great. Overall I would rate this as the best restaurant in Roseville.

Krista Marino

Great food and awesome cocktails

Eric Forstrom

The service was excellent. The ambiance was charming, darkened (but not too much so) and generally quiet. We were there a bit earlier in the evening (4:30) though and by the time we left, the crowd and the noise was increasing. I had the scallops, which were excellent and my companion had the salmon. Although the salmon was just slightly dry and overcooked, it's possible it was simply a timing issue from when it was plated and how long it may have been under a warmer. Nonetheless, it was still flavorful. Overall, it was a very good experience. This was our first visit there and we will definitely visit again.

Myles Stomberg

Sat at the bar. Didn't have a reservation. Bar was open to accommodate. Bartender Del was very good. Attentive but not interrupting. Made recommendations for food and wine. Food was excellent. Wife and I shared two appetizers. Then we shared the 12 oz prime filet. Excellent. One of the best filers I have ever had. Only neg was price. A bit high. However I do want to go back and try the prime rib eye

Julie Bass

Beautiful and intimate with low lighting, this restaurant gives an upscale but homey feel. It buzzes with conversation and the aromatic promises if the well orchestrated dishes being served. Get ready to be impressed.

Penn Pauletich

Our waitress Amanda was one of the kindest people I have met in a while! This can be said for BEFORE and after the electricity went out during our dining experience. That being said I can't really say if the food is good or not. Our waitress bought us a round of drinks for the incontinence. When it became apparent the electricity (as it was out in the mall as well) would not be coming back up the evening, then manager gave us a $50 gift card to come back at a later time. I can't wait to come back and give it a try.

Erin

My boyfriend and I went out last night and tried this place for the first time. A very nice lady greeted us at the door and we got sat right away. Our server was Tamera, she was fantastic! She was quite friendly and very thorough when telling us all about the menu. Our food was very good and came out pretty quick! I highly recommend this place, you won’t be disappointed!! Great job you guys!👌👌

Matthew Wildes

We were very impressed with our experience at Baldamar. We had a special dinner celebration booked and we were treated like royalty. The staff was wonderful and the owner even came to our table to introduce himself and give us a complimentary bottle of champagne for our special occasion. It was the best steak we ever had. Outstanding service and cuisine. Cant wait to visit again.

Eleanor Brown

Good food and drinks a little expensive but worth the money

Mark McGinn

Decided to try Baldamar based on recommendations. I ordered the Ribeye and it was very good, little on the salty side but to be expected. The scallops were excellent and would recommend them. Service was very good. I could only give it a 4 star based on my steak, if this was a $30 steak it would get a 5 but I have had better Prime Ribeyes and for the price my expectations are high. It was a great atmosphere and we had a great time with friends, look forward to coming back and trying another cut of steak.

Elizabeth Hernandez

We both had filet steaks with mashed potatoes! Salt/pepper were garnished around the plate. The food was absolutely delicious! Can't wait to return! Steaks were prepared as requested ... for dessert slice of cake fed 4 people!

Alexa McGill

Happy hour menu is incredible! Good prices with absolutely amazing food. We sat at the bar and enjoyed watching the bartender make the drinks. Awesome drink menu.

Jordan Matt

What a great experience! The service, the food, and the ambience all get 5 stars. I appreciate a new stylish steakhouse like this. We will be back again for sure. Our server was phenomenal all night. Her name is Amanda! Thanks for a special evening out to celebrate my mom on her 50th birthday!

Pete Kulenkamp

Had no idea about this place but great food, great service, and great cocktails. Nick(server) had fun cocktail suggestions. Had a fabulous night.

Z Xiong

We wanted to try their happy hour and so we went there tonight not realizing it was restaurant week. It was packed but we got a table in the bar area which is where you go for happy hour. We ordered stoner fries, lobster sliders, pork belly mac and cheese, and oyster rockefeller. Our server was Blake and he was very attentive even though it was so busy. Not sure how he did it but he kept our drinks full and the food came out fast. Ambiance and decor was rich and modern. I love that it gives you all the downtown feels without the parking fees. The food was amazing! We actually got a surprise at the end and I know we will have to be back for the steaks another time. Most of all, I’m glad we spent our anniversary here. We didn’t mention it because we didn’t want to make it a big deal (hence just coming for happy hour) but wow, they blew us away with their service and their food. We’ll be back and thanks Baldamar for being a part of our anniversary.

Kerry Moser

I have been to this restaurant twice already and can't wait to go back!! The food was incredible went with a group of 8 and everyone enjoyed the appetizers, meal and desserts. We also went for brunch I hate to even write a review of how great it was because it's a hidden gem!!! The options were great salad, soup, eggs, meats, pasta, prime rib, desserts all for a very reasonable price of $24.95. I hope they keep up with great food quality and service.

steven bloomfield

Dinner and drinks for two (caesar salad, signature burger and rib sandwich) were delicious...good wine list features bottles you won't find anywhere else in the area. Read good things about Baldamar but you kind of have to experience it for yourself...skepticism about a place setting up shop in Rosedale's parking lot is maybe warranted. But fear not ! It's a unique and sophisticated spot...typically you need to go downtown to find this kind of ambience. Really nice buzz on a Thursday night; the place was packed. You have to pass through double height entrance doors on way in and it's a nice touch. The bar looks inviting and hope to sit there on a future visit.

Carly Miller

My friends and I just enjoyed Sunday brunch prior to the Vikings game. It was the best way to start our day. The food tasted as good as it looked in its presentation and our server, Kevin, went above and beyond to make our experience excellent. Endless mimosas do not disappoint and the service is top notch. We will be back! Skol Vikes. Skol Baldamar.

Kirsten Schultz

Went here for my father in law's birthday dinner. Service was fantastic, our waitress knew the background and menu so well. Food was exceptional. The interior of the restaurant was beautiful and crisp looking. Highly recommend - we will be back!

M V

My first time here with my husband and we were greeted with the best customer service. Del and the manager are incredible. Recommend this place for the food, ambience, and customer service. Will definitely be back next time. Thank you!!!

Amber Seeger

The food and drinks were incredible! Never disappoints! Highly recommend any steak cuts, street Corn, bread of life and the 15 layer chocolate cake! Super impressed with all of it!

Made reservations for a sat. Great food, lobster mac was phenomenal as well as the oysters and truffle fries. We had an awesome waiter named Andrew! Ambiance was great.

What a wonderful surprise for my wife and I to discover this restaurant! The decor and music was great and we felt comfortable as soon as we entered. Our food - ribeye, sea bass - was outstanding! To top it off, the creme brûlée was a great way to finish our experience. The staff and service was very friendly, sincere and attentive. We were very pleased and will return again.

Best. Food. Hands. Down. I've never had a better filet mignon than I did here, the mashed potatoes were heaven, the calamari was an awesome appetizer, and our server was the bomb (complete blank on his name 😞)! Such a great atmosphere too. I for sure will be back to try their other amazing entrees. And the potatoes. 😁 …

Stellar service, ambience and food. Paul did a great job meeting every single need and was prompt and friendly. The corn dip & chips were yummy, short ribs were AMAZING, and filet was well executed. The cauliflower side was a bit spicier than I expected, but still delicious. A great spot for a date night out or dinner with friends.

We tried several dishes; bread is life with chimichurri dip and the Brussels sprouts were favorites. The wedge salad and the fries were tasty as was the marinated flank steak. Happy hour choices and prices are very good. Andrew N was an excellent server, atmosphere is nice. We will be back!

Visited this resaurant for my birthday with my sister. Kevin a.k.a. Kev was an amazing server as well as the other staff. I brought my appetite and Baldamar delivered. An abundance of choices, that led to a nap or maybe it was the added coctails either way happiness. I thank the staff from management to the chefs for creating a great experience. Kevin again you're awesome hope to visit again soon.

Our family orders almost one of everything to to try and share. This is the most amazing place in this area outside of Milwaukee, WI; Dallas, TX; Austin, TX and of course Chicagoland, IL to find a wonderful dining experience with great food and service!!! Having the Prime Filet Mignon and my husband having the Ribeye was fantastic!!! High quality food at expected costs for the quality you receive. Definitely recommend!!!

Amanda and Jenny were outstanding hosts for our corporate outing. Friendly, engaging, and very attentive to our group's needs. Food was great, although a better selection of sides would be appreciated. I don't consider chimichuri a side, as it is actually a condiment, similar to how catsup is used. Drink selection was great as well and we really enjoyed the Tumeric Tonic!

All I can say is it was some of the best food I had since living in Minnesota in a while. Will most definitely return. Oh and the manager and staff treated us like family. What a great place to sit back eat and unwind. Bomb.

Saw A Christmas Carol at the Guthrie with family and ended a perfect day with early dinner at Baldamar. Food and service were excellent, best waiter ever! We will return.

Andy and Michael top notch! Thank you for the great service

Brunch was pricey for the options provided and food was lukewarm. Service was great but was just for beverages.

This place is exquisite…. Second time here and will forever return. The prime fillet is to die for. The cook on the steak was perfection. Bread is Life: try it, all I’ve got to say.. All in all sooo good and will be back. Give this place a shot, totally worth it!
