    I held a lunch for 12 people for retirement party on Friday January 3rd. Because the UMN was out on winter break, the restaurant was almost empty, so we were able to push together several High Top tables. Service was quick and friendly. Good option close to the UMN.

    We have enjoyed The Howe's Pawtio in the past years, but it is so much nicer now! And the winter decor was really fun. Always good food - good drinks - good service. And our dog loves her muttloaf too. Thumbs and paws up for The Howe!

    The News Room is a great eating establishment. The bar is shaped like a ship, there are news articles as the wall paper, and the music is on point. Our waitress was very nice, the food was amazing. We had the tortellini and Angus steak round, oh and the chocolate torte! Yum!

    Our visit on Sunday, 10/20/24, was our first. We were really impressed with the menu selections and our appetizer - cauliflower - and the burger we shared - Lucy - were both very good. The best part of the night was the bartender/server we were assigned: Skylar. Skylar was prompt, provided fantastic drinks, and was at least as entertaining as the band we saw that night, Llorna Shore. If we purchase tickets to another show at The Fillmore, we will definitely return to Trax.
