Mill District, Minneapolis
Mediterranean, Gavin Kaysen
Mara
Gavin Kaysen’s ode to the French and Italian Riviera, inside the Four Seasons downtown. Wood-fired Mediterranean cooking, a raw bar, and one of the most polished dining rooms in the metro, with a terrace overlooking the river bluff. It is the splurgy hotel-restaurant done right, and the bar is a fine place to land for a glass and a few plates. The third pillar of Kaysen’s downtown trio with Spoon and Stable and Demi.
