Rinata Restaurant

Nice place! Kinda fancy feeling, but not so fancy that it’s inaccessible. Prices are on the higher end, but appropriately so in my opinion. A great place for a nice dinner. There are no vegan options right off the menu, however they were able to make for us a vegan pasta dish with broccolini, cauliflower, tomatoes, and mushrooms. It was delicious, especially the mushrooms! Everything from the bread to the roasted cauliflower, to the pasta, to the drinks were all delicious. But do note that past sundown it is very dark in the restaurant. It was not an issue for us, but if you or someone you’re wanting to dine with has problems with vision in low lighting, you may want to explore other options. But if not, I think this is a great option.

Cannot say enough great things about this restaurant. Came to celebrate a birthday and was not disappointed. Lots of people dining but still felt intimate. Espresso martinis were delicious, focaccia bread and tapenade were some of the best I have tasted, meatballs had great flavor and red sauce not to acidic. Suggest the bucatini and finish with the tiramisu. Service was super friendly, professional and made us feel at home. Great night all around.

Hands down the most delicious and authentic tasting Italian food I’ve ever had in MN! It is extremely rare to find a place with great quality and tasting food along with reasonable prices. I find that Italian food tends to be more on the expensive side, but not Rinata. I was incredibly shocked at how well priced everything was for how high quality everything was. And the service was just as amazing too! I went in for the Sunday date night special priced at $25 for four courses which includes bread/olive oil, an appetizer, salad, entree, and dessert. Every single thing I ordered not limited to the complimentary bread and oil was delicious. Everything was perfectly prepared and seasoned. I am grateful that this was my last meal I was able to eat out before all the quarantine stuff was happening. If they are open for takeout, I will gladly be back! I can’t wait for Rinata to open their doors officially again once the quarantine is over!
