Twin Cities

Best Restaurants in Twin Cities

Nordic cool, global soul, criminally overlooked.

The Twin Cities quietly built one of the most interesting food scenes in the country: James Beard-decorated chefs, the largest Somali and Hmong communities in America cooking their own story, and a farm-to-table ethos that predates the buzzword. Minneapolis brings the new-school polish; St. Paul keeps the old soul. The winters are brutal. The restaurants are the reward.
