Manny's Steak House

The story

Crafted with passion, served with love

The Steak Man's Steakhouse

At 825 Marquette Avenue in the W Hotel, Manny's Steak House has earned a reputation that cuts through the noise of downtown Minneapolis dining. The Star Tribune called it "the downtown Minneapolis steakhouse to end all steakhouses," and the room lives up to that billing — an old-time dinner club atmosphere where the serious business of American beef is conducted with equal parts ceremony and warmth.

The Meat Cart and What Follows

The experience begins before you order. A meat cart rolls to your table so you can survey and select your cut in person — a theatrical and entirely practical touch that sets the tone for the meal ahead. Sides arrive massive, drinks arrive stiff, and the kitchen's own guiding philosophy is that "beef is just the beginning." That same passion, as the restaurant puts it, extends across the full range of the menu, from breakfast and brunch through to dessert.

Zagat reviewers have awarded the food a 4.8, with service scoring 4.6 — numbers that reflect the "service par excellence" guests consistently describe. The wine program matches that ambition: Wine Spectator recognized Manny's with its Best of Award of Excellence in 2024, a distinction that speaks to both the depth of the cellar and the care with which it is curated.

More Than Dinner

Manny's isn't a one-occasion restaurant. The kitchen runs from breakfast through dinner, with brunch, a holiday buffet, and game day options rounding out the week. Private dining is available for those who want the full experience on their own terms. Part of the Parasole family of restaurants, Manny's carries the weight of institutional knowledge — the kind that produces an "A+ meal" without making a fuss about it.
