Big chocolate chip cookie for my birthday. Would've been better if just coming out of the oven with a nice glass of milk.

Visited The Kenwood for brunch. Cute spot, very small. The table shared the banana bread with whipped butter. Big thick piece of bread - very delicious!The menu is quite small. I had the Focaccia Benedict -- house-made porchetta, arugula, calabrian chili hollandaise. I really enjoyed it! Service was fine. Nothing out of this world, but she quickly took our orders and got us our food. Overall it was a nice place, I prefer a bit of a larger menu with more things to choose from, but good/quality food.

It's truly a neighbor gem! There isn't a massive menu but I won't get tired of anything on it. Love their home made pasta and focaccia. Burger is great too. The menu changes seasonally. I was very impressed by the WILD ACRES DUCK in my recent visit. Knowing duck dish isn't easy to cook, theirs is soft, juicy and tasty, the best duck I've had so far in Minneapolis. Just like their ad says, "Dishes that can take you outside your comfort zone - or bring you back to it"!Servers are very friendly, we never had one bad experience.

This is my neighborhood restaurant. I can walk from my house. I love the ambiance. Wish they had cocktails.

Best pancake ever! Everything on the menu looked delicious so it was hard to choose. Definitely don't skip the pancake though. I'll be back to try more. It's a bit busy and a bit noisy for brunch but definitely worth it. Service was quick despite how busy they were. Street parking was relatively easy to find just around the corner.

Been meaning to come here for a couple of years (I run or bike by it often); finally jumped in for brunch.1) Omelette béchamel aux champignons: best omelette I've ever had, world-wide; 2) French fries w/calabrian chili mayo: best I've had outside of Belgium. Crazy fresh ingredients including top-drawer butter for the eggs. Perfect doneness.Also really good coffee. Next time, dinner!

Visited 5/26/23. This place gets 5 stars for the pancakes alone. So fluffy with delicious pistachio butter, would definitely recommend. Visited for Sunday brunch with a few friends. We made a reservation in advance and were seated right upon arrival. Got lattes with oat milk to start and these were decent (coffee on the slightly pricier side so we went with lattes instead). I got the Benedict and my friends got omelets-one with a side of potatoes and one with a side of greens. Overall, prices were slightly steeper for the portions, but everything was really solid and the place itself was super cute. Would love to come back for dinner sometime.

Every time I walk around Lake of the Isles near meal time with friends we stop by The Kenwood. It has reliable food in the neighborhood.

What a wonderful spot in a beautiful location! The staff are so kind and everyone is very helpful with answering questions. Went here for brunch and it was a very enjoyable time! The food is very high quality and every time I go it's the same level of service and food quality. Highly recommend! I got the ricotta toast that was exactly what I was wanting! My fiancé got the breakfast burger and I think it was one of the best burgers I have ever had! The fries were a little on the salty side for me but I won't complain about that! The meat was so tender and juicy! Will go back for that!!

Sunday 1:30 Parking. Check. Alfresco. Check. Service. Check. Cocktails. Check. The FoodTop notch quality here. Ordered the Pancakes with a side of fruit. Our food arrived promptly and I was happy to see the tallest stack of pancakes ever. Counted three. These are served with a dollop of pistachio butter on top along with two servings of maple syrup! The first bite told me everything. A perfect balance of fluffy and firm with a very good scratch made taste. I've had cakes all over and have not found a better one. A Bonus. NO powdered sugar on top! Oh sorry, no pics. They were gorgeous though.

Great taste and very attentive service. I would say the portions of some things are somewhat small but I would recommend supplementing from the a la carte section (definitely have at least one pancake bc they're exceptional (especially the butter)). The Turkish eggs with a side of on pancake left me full for the remainder of the day. Also the huevos rancheros was me the heftier plates I noticed. Their Bloody Mary looked good as well.
