Went for the "Crazy, Sexy, Cool" Instant Klassics meal experience. Other than the noise level with music playing and other guests talking (which I understand for the size of the space for this experience), it was all good. My favorite items were the chicken and the strawberry margarita. Everything was plated beautifully, the staff was phenomenal, and the food was fantastic. I'll definitely be back!

Thoroughly enjoyed my first visit to Klassics tonight! The sampler platter of the oxtail sliders, jerk chicken taquitos, and chicken tenders was absolutely delicious and a great combination of flavors to sample. We also had the salmon Caesar, which had a nice bbq touch and the salmon was cooked to perfection. Cocktail wise, there’s a great array of options. I went with the PYT marg because passion fruit is a passion and it did not disappoint. The special that played on their Nino Brown but was clarified with milk had such great nuanced flavors. We ended with the peach cobbler upside down cake which was the perfect end to a decadent meal. The service was so lovely and we can’t wait to come back again. Cheers to the staff and team!

Got the jerk chicken wrap and the mango in it was flavorless. Everything else about it was good and flavorful though. The lavender lemonade was really good and not too sweet. Really love that they don’t serve pork here. Very busy on the weekends so outdoor seating is ideal for a more intimate vibe.

We stopped into Classic Kitchen during a quick day visit to Minneapolis and were blown away. From the moment we walked in, the service was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming...it truly made the experience feel special. The food? Absolutely phenomenal. Every dish we tried was unique, full of flavor, and clearly crafted with care. It’s not your typical menu, there were creative, stand-out options you don’t see just anywhere, and everything we ordered was very, very good. This place was such a pleasant surprise for dinner, and we’re already talking about coming back the next time we’re in town. If you’re in Minneapolis, Classic Kitchen is a must-try!

An unforgettable first date night experience with my husband! We dined at this beautiful restaurant for the first time and were truly impressed. The food was sophisticated, flavorful, and thoughtfully presented—each dish felt like a special occasion. The staff were warm, attentive, and made us feel right at home. What stood out even more was seeing the owner so hands-on and present, ensuring everything ran smoothly. You can tell this place is run with passion and care. We’ll definitely be back!

Great lunch spot if you're in the Mill District. The atmosphere is bright and vibrant -with food to match. This place opens at noon, so the lunch crowd are the first ones through the door. On the day that I was there, we were the only ones sitting at the bar. The staff is friendly and mostly attentive. The food took a little longer than was comfortable for a lunch break, but I was in and out in 45 minutes. I highly recommend the App Sampler. It's the perfect amt for two people and 28 split in two mashed for an affordable lunch in this area. The fried green tomatoes were great and the Flamin' Hot Cheetos topping was a nice touch. Sliders and chicken were also solid. The fried were another standout with great Parm flavor and a cut I haven't seen before -Unique and delicious. If you have an hour to spare at lunch, check this place out.

When I say this third volume of crazy sexy cool tasting was more than scrumptious I mean it. I don’t even like legs and my plate was clean I’m taking about you probably don’t need to wash it lol, the curry I can’t say enough good things about it like you can drink that sauce for real. Gerard and Brittany are some of the sweetest people you can tell they take pride in this place, from the stopping at tables and helping their team run drinks/food and helping clean and reset. You see them do it all. They aren’t just owners they are leaders. If you haven’t been you definitely need to stop by.

EJ was a great server. The music was a little loud but the drinks were delicious and weren’t too strong. The crab boil wings were good but I enjoyed the collard stuffed salmon more. This location has such a beautiful connection to African American heritage and the decor was also very beautiful. Paid street parking is available.
