Public Kitchen Mn - Saint Paul

We went to Public Kitchen for the first time to celebrate our son's high school graduation. We arrived quite early for our 5:15 reservation (as the graduation ceremony went more quickly than I imaged) so the restaurant was empty and we were seated promptly at a table by the window with a lovely view of the park. Our server made some nice menu suggestions, including the delicious meat and cheese board to start the meal, and everyone was very pleased with their entrees. My mom raved about her pork chop. The server asked what brought us in, and although we told him about my son's graduation, nothing special was done to acknowledge it. I wasn't expecting anything and was not at all disappointed but thought I would mention it in case the restaurant reads this and wants to take action for future similar situations.

As always, excellent food and friendly service. The Noyes Cutler burger is the best burger anywhere, ever.

As always, the food, service and staff were impressive and memorable. Meals are creative, delicious, well-presented and well-prepared. The staff was and is always welcoming, attentive and knowledgeable; they work very well together as a team. A favorite in downtown St. Paul.

Went for an early, midweek Father's Day 2017 dinner (7:15P). Sat inside for the slightly cooler temps. Most diners were outside on the sidewalk in the early eve sun in front of the four-restaurant building near Mears Park, St Paul. Beautiful day. Food was excellent as was the service. Dining area is inside an converted brick warehouse with huge firehouse-door windows facing Mears, very attractive restoration, very high ceiling. Would be more energetic with the dining area and long bar full. Will have to come back on a Saturday night!

This a is our third time making a reservation and dining. Food is very good, service has always been good. But honestly, don't expect them to pay attention to your requests when you make a reservation. Three times we've made a request regarding seating. Three times they have ignored it or never read it. Each time what we requested was available when we got there, but they never paid any attention. We'd give the place 5 stars if it weren't for this.
