LUSH Lounge & Theater — Restaurant in Minneapolis

Visited LUSH for an event this evening. We got there early so we could order some dinner b4 the show. The food is SO good! I ordered the chicken tenders, which came with ranch & honey mustard. They were SO good! So very juicy & tender. I totally recommend them. My adult son, who came with, ordered the Cowboy Burger & potatoes. He loved the burger! He said it was great. The service at the main bar was fabulous. It came time for the event, which, btw was AMAZING, but I tried twice to go to the theater bar to get brinks during the show & both times I was turned away & told to wait for the server. The problem was that the server came by ONCE to take an order at our table. With our seats, we received 2 complimentary glasses of wine, which were brought over, & then after that, nothing. IDK if the server ASSUMED, we wouldn't be getting any other beverages beyond the complimentary ones, but we were never given the opportunity. I would have loved to have tried the special drinks based on the event, but the server never came back to our table. I was turned away twice at the theater bar when trying to order, and we weren't able to catch the servers eye during the show. In the future, I guess if going to an event in the theater, we will have to grab a couple of drinks at the main bar & forego the theater...

How can I begin to explain just how fantastic our experience was when we held our Grooms’ x2 Dinner, at Lush in August 2024!

From the conception to the final night of the event exceeded our expectations.

The room was dressed in white, the sound professional had the right vibe going on. The room was large, clean, and comfortable! We had about 60 people attending and had plenty of room to spare. The room even had its own restrooms that accommodates those with mobility needs.

We had ordered food and it was amazing! From sliders to wings. Vegetables and cheese platter. We had ordered way too much and Lush was honest and informed us that our order was, as we do, extra! lol

Even with an open bar and champagne toast the whole evening was very reasonable you get a lot of bang for your buck!!

Right after our Grooms Dinner many of our party stayed for the Ledgendary Drag Show! These performers were exceptional at their craft!! Watching my new Brother in Law grinning from ear to ear when the Twerkin’ began!!

High praise to Lush for being a beautiful start to our wonderful wedding weekend! And thank you for continuing celebrating our rainbow community. It was an honor to bring out families to such a wonderfully welcoming part of our community!

Love...

This review is regarding my experience as it regards the food. The meal choice chosen did not match what was served. I chose the Egg, Cheese, & Sausage Biscuit Sandwich. Received a burnt biscuit, and egg sandwich without cheese. There were also pickled purple onions on top. This meal was not edible even after I took the onions I didn't order off. The server kindly brought an alternate meal of French Toast. The dough was hard, dense and dry. There was zero syrup There was a tasty fall inspired dollop of frosting on the side of the plate. I did bring this meal home as it had potential. A one minute warm up in the microwave saved this dish. Butter and real maple syrup elevated this to a dessert like experience. I've been to dinner and shows at similar establishments that had the option of buying just the ticket or meal and event ticket together. I truly wish this was an option at Lush to buy just a ticket. The atmosphere was nice and the performers were amazing. I had a good time as I sipped my cocktail. I sent an email to the business and didn't receive an acknowledgment. I was not asking for a refund or comp, just a reply. I know a few others that have been here in the past couple months who share my thoughts about the food. I had high hopes,...
