Review Devil's Advocate - Minneapolis

Mandolinman58
I realize they are starting up again and perhaps understaffed but they under-performed last night. On the positive side the attitude of the staff was great. The drinks were string and the restaurant interior was great. I could see how this would be a great place for a romantic dinner. The menu was underwhelming and the dishes my friends and I ordered were good food but not spectacular. The kitchen was humming along well but they were over swamped. Restarting is never graceful. I wish this restaurant the best because it has great potential.

Stopped in for some wine and an app during happy hour. The prices were unbeatable for being downtown, the atmosphere was so fun and our service was fantastic! Our server, Sophie, was so sweet and really made our experience welcoming. Can’t wait to come back and try more!

My experience was unfortunately not great. I came at the end of dinner service. Is it the staffing shortage, or maybe Pride? The staff was worn out and seemed to be just getting by. I was seated and noticed the awkward height of all the tables. I almost wanted to sit on the floor rather than bend over a coffee table at knee height to eat. My Shrimp Alfredo came out pretty quickly. Everything was fine until I got a piece of something so hard I was scared I cracked a tooth. My meatball was entirely forgotten. I had finished my beverages and food and just waited. Tables around me had emptied out but not yet been bussed. My server, lovely gal that she is, was very pleasant as she tried to give me my bill with the meatball. Turns out it was out of stock. She offered a dessert on the house which was generous but I declined. She refilled my beverages, and I paid shortly thereafter. Kind of a bummer of a meal with the low tables, busy staff, 86'd item, and hard piece. It could be worth another try.

It's so great to see them open again! The atomospher was great, and the our server was super nice! I had the Pork Bolognese and the Pepperoni pizza and everything was delicious. I can't wait till they put desserts on the menu!

Romantic ambiance and decor with amazing food. I had the dry rub smoked wings (a tad salty), house salad (a bit wet) and the seasonal crisp, all of which were satisfying. The service is also top notch; Rachel was the absolute best.

Awesome as always. Never had issues here with the staff or management (both very friendly and easy going). My company comes here once a month and every time it was better than the last. Everything I've ever tasted here has been delicious and I always think about how good the food was the next day.

Great atmosphere along with wonderful food. Lobster roll sliders were outstanding and the bisque was incredible. Get Andre as your waiter he took great care of us.

Just had the most wonderful ravioli I’ve ever experienced in my life. Stunning environment with thoughtful and caring staff. The menu was well thought out and the food was executed perfectly. I have now brought six of my friends over the past few months and they have all been impressed.

Was there Sunday early evening. Young Dee Snider waiter brought us water pulled up a chair to talk about the tap beer. Took our order. Never came back to our table again. Someone else brought our food out. No beer for far too long after our food came. Moved to the bar & dealt with rude bartender because our tab at the table we sat at wasn't closed before we moved. Can't close if there is no wait staff to close out. Rude all the way around which is too bad as the food was actually pretty good. I'd recommend the owners/managers train their staff in customer service. Completely unprofessional staff. Good thing I'm not an asshole we could've walked out without paying since no one was paying any attention.

We have come there at least 20 times and spent well over $1,000 there in the aggregate and loved it. We loved the service and food, the staff were great and incredibly accommodating. We brought groups of friends there on occasion as well. We went there recently and there were different staff there then we had ever seen, and it was a bad experience. The bartender was rude to my girlfriend. I understand there was some confusion about there not being chorizo sliders tonight but a) she offered to eat the chorizo meatballs without the bun and the bartender said "no, we have to take them back to the kitchen", b) then they brought them out on a big bun and we requested the small buns like the beef meatball sliders came on and I offered to pay extra for them but they said no and then brought out three small cold dry buns, c) then we said we didn't want anything at all because the buns were cold and dry. The guy accused us of making excuses and got combative, and then when we said we came there a lot he made some snarky side comment to someone else at the bar about it. We have never experienced such bad service and are really disappointed because we loved the Devils Advocate. That was the place we went for my girlfriend's birthday dinner back in July, she loved it so much.

For an establishment to have such an amazing tap list and decent food, it's so unfortunate that I had to watch the staff taking shots, laughing loudly and talking to one another while I waited 30 minutes to order food.

The beer selection is always the newest craft beers, which rocks. As does the music they play over happy hour. Let's just say, as a late 80's/90's music fan, I was in my happy place. The food was alright but a few more fresh options (think veggie plate with dip) would be welcome. I'll be back.
Andrew Berns
Good food, great beer list. Justin is a great bartender. He was very knowledgeable about beer, offered lots of samples, very enthusiastic. Can't wait to go back for brunch.
Lynn Carlson
Great brunch! The mimosa flight was awesome, my wife was in heaven!! The basil infused vodka tomato soup with grilled cheese dunkers was also amazing. Staff was super friendly, we can't wait to go back. You have to stick a dollar to the ceiling!!
Christopher A. Smith
Unique alternative to that other place that was suggested by staff at that other place. One of the best poutines I had. Great beer selection.
Sheila Davidson
Great atmosphere, friendly staff, good menu. Took awhile to get our meals (very busy), but worth the wait.
Kristin Johnson Krueger
Loved the choices of brews, unique place, didn't try the food- But the variety looked and smelled great! Bloody Mary was the best ! Can't wait to stop in again.
