Mancini's Char House & Lounge

Voted Best Martinis by City Pages in 2011! When you want a good, old-fashioned cocktail , this is the place to get it.

Ever wondered why downtown St. Paul is a ghost town after dark? Because every single person in the city is here. Carry your steak-stuffed self into the bar for after-dinner dancing . Read more

the best lobster anywhere around!!!! and of course the steak is great but don't forget to get the toasted garlic bread mmmm

The New York Strip was very good and so was the garlic toast . Dancing in the lounge with "The Players" after dinner was lots of fun too.

This place is so cool and the food is very yummy! We told the waitress we were getting married in a couple weeks and she brought us out a cake for dessert , it was so sweet.

its the best place to go for lobster and steak is so tender! then going there for years and won't stop!! oh and I can't forget how good the service is!!

Relaxed atmosphere in the bar has a cool vibe.

Are you kidding me. That's what you say when you get your steak . It's...like...magic. And free peppers and bread ? Are. You. Kidding. Win. A thousand times win.

New York Strip is really tasty. Must get mushrooms on the side to top it off.

Great steak . Done just how I asked. Didn't break the bank .

Best steaks !! I always get the new york strip

The Filet and Lobster is fantastic! Especially with a cannoli chaser for dessert !

Excellent food, great service! The filet is to die for! Love it so much!

One of City Pages top ten steakhouses ! The rise of so many great steak house options in the Twin Cities makes us appreciate the folks who have been doing it right for decades: Mancini's Char House.

Awesome ambiance reminds me of mobster days. Great drinks...though it seems to draw an older crowd.

Is this place affiliated with the Mancini's in the state fair ? If so, where can I get a bottle of their got sauce?

Great Atmosphere.....Best place for Drinks & Very good Steak

grilled chicken sandwich with kettle chips

Filet with Bernaise and a Brandy Alexander for dessert .

classic six shrimp cocktail

Don't be fooled by the plain exterior - within is a sprawling, horseshoe boothed , candles and brass ambience without peer in the Twin Cities (except for maybe Nye's).

Try the filet, a couple next to us recommended it and they were correct!!

garlic toast packs a punch

Worst. Martini . Ever. I said I wanted a "classic gin martini ". He said, "what kind of gin ?" I said, "Beefeater". He puts Beefeater into a Boston shaker and SHAKES THE SHIT OUT OF IT - NO VERMOUTH !

Steak sandwich is the best

The interior is stunning, the food is good but the waitstaff is less than desirable. Beautiful place to visit, good luck!

Great place to catch the Wild Schuttle

Garlic Bread every time!

I tried the sirloin , and it was one of the worst I have ever had. The sirloin at Denny's in St. Paul on University Ave. was way better than this place. That's pretty sad!

New York Strip Steak

Strip steak is a W. 7th classic.

Just eat here and dream about coming back later...

Petite filet . Love the sliced, marinated tomatoes and pickle slices

Shawn is the best server in town !!! So funny!

Steak is tough and tasteless except where it tastes like charcoal. Bread is good, though.

Good place for a date. If the date is lame at least the food rocked.

Char Bread is addictive

Dinner with old friends

Solid martini . $5.

Get a gift card, makes a great present.
