Waterbury Restaurant

I can't stop thinking about the Wagyu burger. It was sensational.But first, let's talk about the space. This is a new restaurant at the intersection of Lake and Excelsior in the new Waterbury House apartment building.The space is excellent and very modern, but it is also very cozy and full of light.I came here for a lunch meeting and the host, the server, and the manager were all very welcoming. I ordered the Wagyu burger. It was just the right size, not too small that leaves you hungry and not too big that you feel gross after.The aoli was tasty and the bacon was perfectly crunchy and chewy.The fries were fantastic, but the house-made ketchup was the co-star of the show. Who makes their own ketchup? I highly recommend checking this place out. They have a happy hour and a coffee bar, too.

I've been here several times in the last year since it opened and it's def getting seasoned now, the ambiance has settled in. All of the food is great, [I think, I mean. I'm a veg, so I only eat that stuff, but] wow the Minnesota pot stickers are divine and the salads are great, and there is lots of meat for people who eat that and the desserts and drinks are yummy and so pretty. I can walk here so I love that I can have an elegant dinner within walking distance. All of the servers are great here; tonight I had Brittany, she was adorable and just the right amount of attentive for solo dining on Valentine's Day.

We met our daughter at the Waterbury for a lovely lunch. At 2:30 p.m., the bar was free, and we grabbed three seats. Parker took great care of us and answered my barrage of questions with panache. We started with a scrumptious falafel dish that was plated beautifully. I ordered the Caesar Salad with Salmon, and it was not only delicious but also huge. My daughter loved her fish tacos, and the burger was proclaimed to be one of the best. The Waterbury's space could be termed modern elegance, which made this restaurant different from most dining establishments in the Twin Cities. There was a certain savoir-faire at the Waterbury, often missing from the Twin City's dining scene. I will be back.

We stopped in for brunch. The hours, even on the weekend, for brunch are 8-11. You could definitely tell that the restaurant was very very new. Lots of questions from the staff to the manager on the menu (which only has 6 items), questions on what glassware to use, etc. The inside is super cute and bright on the corner of Lake and Excelsior. There are a few reserved restaurant spots in the garage. We started with bloody Mary's. There were two mix choices, dill and smoky jalapeño. We ordered one of each and they were served with garnishes of a lime and an olive. The dill definitely held that taste and I thought it was great. The smoky jalapeño I'm told tasted like normal mix. There was no baby beer served with it which is something I've come to expect with a bloody in Minnesota so was a little disappointing. We both got the steak burrito which was served with a side salad and a salsa. The dressing on the salad was great! The ingredients in the burrito were also very nice but not very evenly dispersed. I love burritos though and would order it again. We split a side of potatoes which weren't needed. They were good but the burrito was full of potatoes. A few training kinks to work out but a great location and food was both reasonable and delicious.

My girl friend and I were hungry after kayaking at the lakes and decided to stop by for dinner. The interior of the restaurant was beautifully designed - modern and upscale with an intimate vibe. The service was great - our server was very attentive and professional. We ordered a chickpea falafel and wagyu tartar for starters. The chickpea falafel was perfectly fried with a soft center and garnished with an amazing red bell pepper sauce. The wagyu tartar was fresh and seasoned nicely. She got the burger and I got the pesto gnocchi. Omg! The gnocchi was to die for - soft pillows of pasta dressed with a fresh pesto sauce and topped with tons of crispy breadcrumbs. We ordered the salted caramel mousse for dessert and it was amazing perfect end to the meal. Highly recommended!

We always have fun here! It's an esthetically pleasing restaurants with great food. Highly recommend to check out. Theres a few parking spots reserved for restaurant guests in their lot. Every food item we have tried has been executed well.

Had a phenomenal dinner. Location in itself is unbeatable. Sat at the bar, perfect ambiance, great service and a fabulous meal. The Cream of Mushroom Soup is absolutely a must, and I am not a big cream of mushroom soup gal. We also had the Bison Short Ribs and the Scallops, paired with a few perfect old fashioneds, and a Toad Hallow Merlot. Thank you, Waterbury! We will be back!

EVERYTHING! IT is such a comfortable restaurant. The staff is so into their job and it shows. Will definitely say that Waterbury is one of our favorite places to dineHAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL
