- AAndrewMinneapolis - St. Paul •1 review5.0Dined 1 day agoGreat food and impeccable service. Our drinks were taking a little long and the server, without us saying a word, comped our drinks. The steak was cooked perfectly. The tuna tartar was the best I’ve had. Very good sablefish. The focaccia bread was homemad and “chef’s kiss”. Cocktails were delicious. Will be back!More infoOur PaladarPrice: Expensive• American• Rochester•4.9
- LLisaMinneapolis - St. Paul •1 review5.0Dined 2 days agoThe food, service and ambience were outstanding at Chester’s. Our entire table enjoyed different walleye dishes and everyone was very happy with their entrees. Desserts were generous and delicious. The restaurant was crowded with large holiday groups but the overall noise level was moderate, snd for once I did not have trouble hearing my table mates conversation. Devin was an efficient and personable server and the manager stopped by our table to ensure we were being taken care of. Outstanding food, great service.More infoChester's Kitchen & BarPrice: Moderate• American• Rochester•4.7

- RRuthChicago / Illinois •6 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoSat at the bar and started with a Cosmo. Had an excellent bartender in Angela. Dined on the early bird menu. Steak sandwich was delicious. Many that dine here are visiting Mayo and experiencing stress/anxiety. The bar area was a cool slam and welcome relief.
