The restaurant is very cool looking, with a great vibe and the large open room just looks cool…but that’s the only good about this place.

The historic location is very interesting and the place is set up well for singles at the bar, duos at intimate seating, all the way to larger groups. However the wine selection is limited considering there is a “wine vault” and the food is clearly not made from scratch. I ordered the pesto gnocchi and it tasted just like the prepackaged mix I’ve made at home back in college. Same dusty preservative taste. Not at all worth the price.

What a fun venue for a stop before theater night downtown! Enjoy a great meal, inside the bank, with beautiful glass, unique wood carvings and more. Although the menu is small, food was well prepared and delicious. Those at my table enjoyed their meal, but agreed that the food needed to be served hot, not luke warm. Drinks were lovely, but weak and the ice quickly melted down the flavor. The wine list was way over priced, too. More summertime martinis needed to be on their drink menu. We had good service and enjoyed our evening at the “Bank”.

My sister and I wanted to have a fabulous meal before our show at The Orpheum. We were browsing through Open Table and this place really appealed to me. It looks beautiful and very historic. The menu looked great as well.

Hands the worst restaurant I’ve eaten at in years. Maybe ever. Exorbitant prices coupled with poor service, small portions and just really bad food. The first night I asked for the Bank burger with truffle fries medium rare. I got a hard hockey puck, completely overcooked and fries that didn’t taste of truffle one bit. My table mate had asked for no tomato on hers. Of course there was a tomato slice on her equally overcooked burger. The following evening, not trusting the dinner menu, we ordered the charcuterie platter for $21, figuring they couldn’t screw that up. We were wrong. The platter consisted of some apricots, raisins, pickles, olives ( which were the only redeeming factor), a stake piece of bread and some slices of bologna. BOLOGNA! Oh and a weird blob of something purple. My friend ordered a cup of vegetable soup which was literally the smallest portion of soup I’ve ever seen. Lukewarm with several pieces of veggies. I would never eat there again. Although the Moscow Mule was delicious. Service was subpar, very slow. Unfriendly bordering on rude.

We had family coming in for the holidays and my uncle wanted to eat out one night to give my wife a break from dishes and cooking. We were pleased to find a reservation for 10 on open table. Not being familiar with the location or menu we were pleased to find multiple option available for all the picky eaters in our group. The appetizer selection was good with many options and the key was our waiter who kept reminding us if we saw something we didn’t like or had questions about swapping things “he knew people” and would take care of it. So salads were delivered with dressing on the sides and steaks were butterflied and the salmon was delivered with the glazing on the side. (He was right, it was a lot sweeter than I would have appreciated on a wonderful filet of fish). Top this all off with having our own private room with adjustable

I went during my anniversary/Valentine’s Day, our waiter took our orders and didn’t write it down I had figured it was only 3 items and it wasn’t busy so he’d remember it. After he asked us more 3 times what we had ordered and even after the third time had gotten the order wrong with the incorrect fixings for the burger. We ordered the crab cakes and found multiple shells inside. Overall the experience was a 1/5, I would have been more understanding if things were busy especially since it was Valentine’s Day but there were around 15 people (including me and my partner) And to be paying over $100 it was not worth it.

Food was delicious, the evening server was SO good, friendly, helpful etc. The atmosphere is modern and the chairs and couches are nice. I give it 4 stars not 5 because the morning server was ‘eh’. We actually had to have someone track her down so we could pay our bill (and no, it was not busy). Otherwise, I highly recommend the food and atmosphere!

We arranged to have a special dinner party at The Bank restaurant to celebrate my daughter’s graduation with her masters from the University of Minnesota, and we could not be happier with how our event turned out. The restaurant is a hidden gem, located within the Westin Hotel downtown Minneapolis. (Yes, it is actually a vintage bank, with cooks in the kitchen behind what used to be teller windows, and a wine cellar in the former vault! The history adds ambiance, and the decor and architectural elements are simply breathtaking.) Parking is available in a ramp nearby or via valet at the hotel, making it more appealing than other places in the downtown area as well. Huge shout out to Catering and Sales manager, JENNIFER DELAGDO, who worked with me back and forth through many emails to plan and execute the event exactly to my vision. At Jennifer’s recommendation, we reserved a private room in the corner of the main-floor restaurant, which proved its worth in gold as we had a couple of toddlers with us and a noisy, happy post-graduation-ceremony group. We were able to laugh and have all the fun we wanted without fear of disrupting other dining guests on the main floor. The food was exceptional, and we all enjoyed our meals by Executive Chef ERIC WIEDL immensely. In fact, we can’t say enough about the food! It was truly delicious and a huge highlight. The room was beautifully set in the configuration that I had requested, and our head server, TERRY, took fabulous care of us, making sure we all had drinks as we arrived and that we enjoyed ourselves. The service was impeccable and professional. The personalized menu placed in each napkin was beautifully designed and printed, and it gave a special presence to the table — truly the icing on the cake. This is not the cheapest place you could host a party, but for downtown Minneapolis properties, it is a hidden gem with beautiful ambiance, delicious food, solid drink menu and lovely private accommodations for a smaller group. Without hesitation, we highly recommend!
