The Lexington
Price: Expensive•American•4.8(3,047)
The Lexington is more than a restaurant, it’s an institution. Located on the corner of Lexington Parkway and Grand Avenue, this St. Paul community was the most fashionable at the turn of the 19th century. The St. Paul elite lived just blocks away and the first electric trolley brought visitors up and down Grand Avenue. The Lexington opened in 1935, after the end of prohibition, and was a popular neighborhood bar to gather and socialize. Previously operating as a speakeasy, the expansive wood panels were perfect for hiding a little booze and one can only imagine the shenanigans going on beyond the hidden staircase behind the coat check. For decades following, The Lex, as it’s called by locals and enthusiasts alike, was the place to be seen; business dealings, cocktail hours, and milestone celebrations were a regular occurrence for St. Paul socialites.Holman's Table
Price: Expensive•Contemporary American•4.7(676)Intimate setting in a beautiful, historic building overlooking the runway of Holman's Field. Fresh, modern dishes complemented by a classic bar and beautiful wine list. Open to the public with no security checks required.
The Handsome Hog

Our smoked creme brulee, banana pudding, or specialty cocktails are the perfect way to wrap up your evening at Handsome Hog. We are looking forward to seeing you at Handsome Hog!1881 Eating House
Price: Moderate•American•4.3(135)A century and a half ago, Eating Houses transformed train stations into more than mere transit points—they became destinations. More than restaurants, they offered warmth, connection, and a taste of home. That’s who we are: a place where history lingers, bold flavors bring comfort, and every guest becomes part of the story.
1881 Eating House is a modern gastropub nestled in the heart of St. Paul’s historic Union Depot. Here, the building’s rich past meets a lively, contemporary atmosphere—perfect for any occasion. Our menu features bold, innovative dishes, handcrafted cocktails, and local brews, all served in a stylish yet welcoming space.
Whether you’re stopping by for a laid-back night out, a first date, or a quick bite before your train, 1881 Eating House is where you gather, savor, and enjoy.
The name "1881" pays homage to the year both the original Union Depot and our partner restaurant, Lake Elmo Inn, opened—reflecting the deep historical connection we proudly carry forward.

- TTaraMinneapolis - St. Paul •1 review5.0Dined 2 days agoWe decided to try a new-to-me Brazilian steakhouse. One of the first people who came to our table was Nate, and we recognized him because he used to work at another BSH that we no longer go to. His service was always excellent and he was missed, so it was nice to find him here. The service at BullVino was really good, we were checked in on every few minutes to see if there was anything we wanted to circle by again, our drinks were kept topped off, and there was no real wait before a new option was brought to the table. The portions were really nice, instead of one tiny piece of steak we were served large portions. The top shelf meats were brought by more than once and they were all delicious. In a side by side, the only minor difference between BV and Fogo is that BV's salad bar is smaller, but if you're going to a Brazilian steak house for the salad bar, I question your life choices. Five stars, we will definitely be back.More infoBullvino's Churrascaria St. PaulPrice: Expensive• Brazilian Steakhouse• Saint Paul•4.2

- MMicheleMinneapolis - St. Paul •12 reviews4.0Dined 3 days agoWe love Kincaid's. Often go there pre-theater at Ordway. Last night was extremely busy- both a Wild Game and Ordway performance. Kitchen was a little backed up so we ended up having to take dinner to go after waiting for approximately 40 minutes. That being said, the dinner was delicious- I ate half of my seafood pasta after the show and the rest will be my lunch for today. Very generous portion with a lot of crab but only 4 shrimp.More infoKincaid's - St. PaulPrice: Moderate• Seafood• Saint Paul•4.6
