Editorial Review for Hell's Kitchen – by Annamarie Cumpston
In Short
The room is simple with hellfire-red accents, framed Ralph Steadman prints and a few faux buzzards lurking around. Somehow, the devilish theme is amusing, not macabre. Expect breakfast standards with a delightful twist. Toasted sausage bread is a sweet-salty mix of bison sausage, currants, pecans and black coffee. Caramel-pecan rolls are made fresh. At lunchtime, there's a ham, pear, Swiss and fontina melt and a slow-roasted pulled pork sandwich, zippy with chili-herb seasonings.

I ate lunch at Hell's Kitchen on June 24, 2008, and perhaps the name alone should have kept me away. I ordered the Porridge and the Huevos Rancheros. Half way through the Rancheros I felt something sharp in my mouth. What did I discover? A STAPLE in my food. A staple, can you believe it, bent and twisted, one swallow from heading down my throat. Management couldn't explain it and offered me a gift card for a return visit. Needless to say, I declined the offer and will NEVER return.

Don't confuse this with the TV Chef Ramsay namesake. This place is certainly much better!! I am from San Francisco, a place that serves up a decent restaurant or two, and I eat here every time I am in the MSP. It is my favorite restaurant here. From the bison benedict to the huevos to the bloody marys to the home made peanut butter to the awesome cinnamon buns to the sausage bread to the walleye and chips to the . . . well, let's just say I am pleasantly surprised every time I come. Despite the casual appearance of the decor and the gothic attire of the staff, this is a place that obviously pays attention to the details. The menu is fantastic, and foodies like me agonize becasue everything on the menu looks so good! And while a great menu sets high expectations that many restaurants can fall short on, Hell's Kitchen has a back of the house serving up plates that manage to exceed those expectations. Every plate looks great, and every dish I have had has been perfectly prepared. Best of all, the wait staff has been very attentive every time I have eaten here, and it is obvious that they are proud to work here. You can see it in the way they carry themselves and in the way they interact with their customers. This is a very professional operation that deeply cares about its clientele -- a very interesting juxtaposition from its heavily tatooed, black, gothy & tattered devil-may-care exterior. Props to you, Hell's Kitchen!! UncleBad says -- I'll be damned: if eatin' in Hell is wrong, then I don't wanna be right.
Pros: great menu, great kitchen, great service
Cons: not open for dinner
