Picture stepping into a restaurant where you just know you’re in for something special. The kind of place where the aromas alone are enough to make your mouth water, where every dish that hits the table feels like a little work of art.

It’s no wonder this spot has caught the attention of foodies everywhere racking up rave reviews and now claiming the title of the best restaurant in all of Minnesota.

Wow! What a curated experience. Every detail is intentional, proud, comforting. The menu is exciting and new yet somehow familiar and homey. You feel like you are eating food created by the ancestors in a modern, progressive plated dish. So impressive, delightful, joyful. Just wow! - Bay on Google Reviews

In fact, back in September, it was celebrated as one of America’s top 20 restaurants by Bon Appétit, and soon after, The New York Times included it in their Best Restaurants in the US list.
