Reviews for The Malt Shop in Minneapolis, MN
I had gone here a couple times prior to the remodeling, wasn't at all impressed. But this last trip was extraordinary... awesome. Although one out of 3 kids wasnt excited about their meal,(Mac and cheese) the other two loved theirs(fettuccineAlfredo, cheese burger) The adults split the malt shop burger, and grilled chicken. Delicious Staff was polite, andaccommodating. Malts were also very tasty. One kid can be quoted as saying, "this is better than lowbrow"! But we had to remindthem lowbrow has better fries. Definitely will go back. Read more
I miss the old (very old) booths but the new set up is nice and the food was great. The malts actually have enough malted in... them, even without asking for extra they taste like malt which is not true basically anywhere else. We?re glad they have animpossible burger option which was great, the salad was fresh and well dressed, the live guitarist was good not too loud, andservice was fast and very friendly despite being a busy Friday night. Fun to bring my kid somewhere I went as a kid. Read more
I love the makeover the Malt Shop had and the quality of food is better. The old classics got even better: The wings are to die... for and the burgers are amazing. The atmosphere is very nice. Love that they offer crafted cocktails and beer at reasonableprices. Great and personable service! We will be back! Read more
We had the urge to tackle a malt adventure and this one was good. We had a hard time getting to the place with all the... surrounding road construction, but we prevailed! I love the decor of the malt shop portion of this place. See my photos forthe cool car booth. It is comfortable and it has a touch of nostalgia--especially with the (vintage-looking) jukebox. Weordered two large malts. One was chocolate (I appreciate good and simple choco) and the other was raspberry. My wife is a bitmore creative than me. ;) They have many different flavors for those looking for more creative options. Of course, we like themalt vs. shake option for sure. We had an unplanned adventure as the server mixed my chocolate with raspberry. The mistake wasactually enjoyable. They also did something (we are still trying to figure it out) with the raspberry malt. It was super-tangyand it had a bit of choco in it too. The manager and owner noticed that we had gotten the wrong malts and they both immediatlyjumped in quickly to correct the situation. I liked mine so I kept it and my wife got hers replaced. They were genuinelyconcerned that there was a mixup. Mistakes happen and it is all about how they are handled. The owner/management handled thisperfectly and they even comp'd our purchase because of the error. Kudos to them for offering stellar customer service!!! :) The malts were a bit expensive at $10 each, but the environment, ownership, and malt quality (after the fix) makes this afive-star experience. We were actually intrigued and it was a mini-adventure to try to figure out what they did to our malts. We still don't know for sure. I recommend this place to anyone wanting a malt adventure as you can create your own uniqueexperience here. We need to come back sometime to test out the food part of this place too. Kudos to the owner/managementteam. You have a great thing going here. Keep up the great work and remind your staff to strive for the same ex Read more
Great place to go for a quick bite, a date night or a fun family dinner. Their malts are way better than any you've had... elsewhere. The cooks and waitresses are friendly and seem to have fun at their job. It's always nice to be in that kind ofenvironment. I would recommend this place to all that like malt's, Burger's, fries and these are just the best. You get a goodportion of what you spend. Keep up the great work guys. I definitely will return to eat. For the person who said that the placewasn't any different, they clearly hadn't eaten there yet. Read more
Daily special burger & beer combo was less than $20 and delicious!! They make homemade mayo/dill sauce that is awesome. The... chilli was very good with medium spice. Of course the malt shake is the best in town. Read more
We very much enjoyed our meal. The staff was very friendly and attentive. Our food was delicious as was the milk shake our... daughter picked. Such a gem tucked into a cute neighborhood. We will definitely be back! Read more
Recently renovated neighborhood staple. Very well done to keep some of the old charm, while making it feel updated and... fresh. Malts are delicious and a lot of options for kids and adults. Read more
