🍕 Young Joni | The Art of Wood-Fired Pizza & Creative Small Plates

Tucked away in the vibrant Northeast Minneapolis arts district, Young Joni is not just a pizzeria—it's a culinary destination that masterfully blends innovative wood-fired pies with globally inspired small plates. Helmed by James Beard Award-winning chef Ann Kim, this moody, intimate spot has earned a national reputation for its creative flavors, exceptional craft cocktails, and a hidden back bar that feels like a wonderfully secret speakeasy. ✨ The Young Joni Experience: The atmosphere is moody, stylish, and effortlessly cool—think dark wood, cozy booths, soft ambient lighting, and an open kitchen where you can watch the masters at work. The menu is a celebration of bold flavors: from the iconic Korean BBQ pizza to perfectly charred Brussels sprouts, inventive seasonal salads, and decadent short rib plates. Don't miss the craft cocktails or the secret back bar, "The Back Bar at Young Joni," for a post-dinner nightcap. Service is knowledgeable and genuinely passionate about the food and drink. 📝 Short Social Media Caption: “Pizza perfection and beyond at the legendary Young Joni! 🔥🍕 That Korean BBQ pizza changed my life.
