2026

From the OpenTable editors: After years at Bar La Grassa and Burch Steak superstar chef Daniel del Prado opened this charming Argentine-Italian restaurant in Linden Hills to acclaim. The Star Tribune handed it a four-star review, particularly praising the brunch where you can look forward to dishes like a mortadella sandwich and almond flour pancakes. Return at night for del Prado’s pastas like the mushroom rigatoni and pair it with flame-kissed meat and seafood, including octopus with fingerling potatoes and pork chop with sunchoke puree. The spacious, light-filled dining room often stays packed until late, and you’ll want to get in on the lively atmosphere with a selection from one of the most creative cocktail programs in the city.

    We dine outdoors on a late fall evening and had a delicious meal. I truly appreciate the dairy free menu. We had the potato churros as an appetizer and then the tagliatelle and salmon. Both outstanding. And when a moth decided to take a swim in my wine, a new glass was immediately procured 😂 This has quickly become one of my favorite restaurants even though it is a bit of a drive for us.

    The food was beautifully prepared and delicious, and our server was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. This was our first time at Martina, and we will certainly return. One caution unrelated to the excellent dining - allow extra time for parking, as it can be a challenge.

    This is my 2nd time for a brunch at Martina. The food is very flavorful and fresh. I had the avocado toast and shared gorgonzola empanadas. My friend enjoyed the crab benedict. I had a mimosa made with fresh squeezed orange juice. I will be back.

    Visually, the restaurant is adorable. However, the service was flat from the moment we arrived. We checked in for our reservation and our table wasn’t ready. That happens—we understand—but there was virtually no communication beyond, “the table isn’t ready.” Typically, there’s at least some guidance (for example, being directed to the bar, where to wait, or an estimated timeframe). Since there were tables right by the front door, we had no idea what to expect or how long we’d be waiting. We were seated about 10 minutes after our reservation time, which is completely understandable. The real issue was the lack of updates, which made the wait feel much longer than it needed to be. The service didn’t improve from there. The drinks we had from the bar were excellent, and the appetizers were really good. Unfortunately, dinner was where things fell apart. The ribeye was the poorest-quality cut I’ve ever been served at a public restaurant, and both orders were cooked “medium rare” but arrived clearly on the rarer side. We considered sending it back, but we were ready to be done. Our server also seemed to disappear at multiple points—after ordering, she was gone for about 20 minutes. When we finally saw her, she brought the check and a pen that didn’t work, and then she vanished again. I had to find someone else just to sign and leave. Based on my experience, I wouldn’t recommend this restaurant.

    Had a fun time with party of 5. Everyone loved the calamari with cinnamon and the avocado bruschetta, various pasta dishes and the banana dessert! The ribeye steak was a disappointment as it was more like a flank steak with fat and gristle. I much prefer a thick cut steak. I definitely won’t order it again. Noise level was high but we weren’t close to other tables so it was manageable. Getting a parking spot is challenging.

    This was our second time dining at Martina. The unique flavors keep us coming back. This time we had the empanadas and tuna bruschetta to start. The empanadas were too rich for our taste. We had the Octopus (for the second time cause it’s too good to pass!) and the Scallops and Prawns for our entrees. Highly recommend their cocktails especially the espresso martini-one of the best! Only disappointment was that we were celebrating a birthday, which was noted in the reservation, and there was no acknowledgement or anything special.
