Best Authentic Restaurants in Lyn-Lake

Our server was Mandy. She was AMAZING!! She made sure we had an excellent time, and gave amazing service! We do not remember seeing it posted in the menu that the tip would be included on the bill. If it was there, it should be more visible, as to not be a surprise when the bill comes. That is not good business, nor good for your staff. Mandi’s tip would have been at least 25% (because she was so wonderful!) had it not been 18% on our bill. You really did her a disservice. The FLAT plates are beautiful, yet NOT something that food with any juice/liquid should be placed upon! When our meals were served, steak juice went all over me as the food runner placed the plate upon our table. Mandy was extremely apologetic and offered everything she could/within her power to make it right. It was ok, because she was NOT at fault… the owners were… poor decision to use flat plates!!!! The manager offered dry cleaning, but our flight home was the next day, so no dry cleaning could be done here. We were served free dessert. All-in-all, we had a wonderful time!! ALL of the staff was very friendly, and welcoming. We travel here often for both business and pleasure, and will be back! Our dinner guest was with Hilton management, and she was so impressed, that she will be bringing her clients to this location, as often as she can. We will most definitely ask for Mandy!

Absolutely fantastic meal… the service was great, loved speaking with Nick the Sommelier. Only disappointing factor was the restaurant did nothing to make our anniversary feel extra special.

Thank you for making my birthday a special one! I had a group of 8 booked for a birthday party. I requested the private room in back and they were able to accommodate right at the reservation time. Everyone was happy with the food and loved the experience. Very kind of them to also bring a dessert on the house for my birthday. Overall a great night and definitely recommend for your special occasions

The restaurant was way to dark. You could not read the menu without a flash light nor could we even see our food. Food and service was good.

Pimento Kitchen in Minneapolis is a must-try! I had the chicken curry, and the spice level was just right—full of flavor with the perfect kick. Loved the reggae music playing in the next room, which created a great atmosphere. It was my first visit, thanks to a friend's recommendation, and it won’t be my last. If you’re looking for authentic Jamaican food and great vibes, this is the spot! Highly recommend for anyone craving bold flavors and a fun dining experience. #PimentoKitchen #JamaicanFood #MinneapolisEats #AuthenticFlavors #ChickenCurry #ReggaeVibes #FoodieFinds
