Editorial Review for Rossi's Steakhouse – by Donna Tabbert Long

In Short
Rossi's has the look of the quintessential men's club. Located downstairs in the Metro Building, the high-class digs include a huge fireplace and plush booths; dark-wood paneling; tasteful paintings; and heavy linens and flattering lamplight. Corporate types abound, but that doesn't dim the romance factor. All steaks, including porterhouse and bone-in sirloin, are cooked to perfection. Seafood and chicken round out the menu. Sides are standard steakhouse fare, from steamed asparagus to crispy hash browns.

This subterranean restaurant disappointed us in many ways. The prices were high ($49 for the house special steak). The steaks arrived luke-warm, were fatty and gristly to the point of being almost inedible. The side dishes of vegetables were heavily salted and also arrived luke-warm. The "freshly made" apple pie was obviously just microwaved, with a soggy crust, and again was barely warm. The service was intrusive to the point of making it uncomfortable to carry on a conversation amongst the guests. There are many other much better, less expensive steak houses in the Twin Cities. I will not come here again.

Pros: Easy parking right next to the restaurant

Cons: Poor quality food. Overpriced. Intrusive service

They have good appetizers and food, but the Happy Hour staff is the worst of all in Minneapolis. I've gone there a couple of times because of co-workers, but would never pick to go there. We were yelled at by one server once, they REFUSE to split bills, and mixed up our order 3 times wrong in one night. Wow. pathetic for an establishment that makes their wait staff dress in all white Chef's uniforms and aprons. The food is well priced and tastes good though, but don't tip for the service!
