I had heard about Bellanotte through friends when I first moved to Minneapolis, as the hottest spot in town. I went in for cocktails to check it out and loved it. The ambiance was warm and chic, the drinks were impressive, the clientèle was attractive and included local athletes, and the DJ was great. I went back to have dinner there and was equally impressed. The staff was knowledgeable and attentive and the service prompt. The squash ravioli was sweet with a hint of garlic, and the chocolate lava cake was heaven. Definitely a must if you are looking to impress someone.
