The service was excellent and so was the food. The ambiance inside is better in the evening (it feels dark in there on a sunny lunch time). The patio is absolutely amazing any time of the day!
We had reservations for 13 people for Father's Day. Our table was in a great semi-private dining room. Our server was great, the atmosphere great as well. My only complaint was that the food took SO LONG to arrive - we were told the kitchen was overwhelmed by the large house for this special occasion. It was tough to keep small kids occupied for the long wait.
The food was delicious, but is took 90 minutes to get our entree (cod). Our server was great but was overwhelmed with the busy night, as was everyone we saw.
I've enjoyed WA Frost in the past for both food and atmosphere. Sorry to say the menu was way off this visit. Frost is trying to get exotic when it should stick with elevated basics. I had duck breast fixed in Asian style but the rice was swimming in a thin sauce (literally swimming!) My husband had a curry dish with lamb shank....an unfortunate combination of flavors if there ever was one. The menu also seemed very limited and quite expensive. Our appetizer was $14 for three small sausages and a stingy sauce.
I ordered pork chops and they were dry, my friend ordered steak/medium and got medium rare. Service was great, I have been to Frost's before and had good food. It was a Tuesday night so that may have been the issue. Was disappointed in the food this trip.
We were treated wonderfully with excellent service and very fine food, both tasting menu (and EXTRA THANKS for a vegetarian tasting menu, too) and off the menu items. We had requested seating to accommodate good conversation with family joining us we had not seen in quite a while and we were given a great table in a beautiful setting.
We chose to dine in the outdoor patio for our 4th Anniversary. It was beautiful. Romantic spot, with good service and awesome food. The lamb was great, and while the chicken was a bit spicier than I thought, it was delicious. Our waiter noticed my husband wasn't drinking his cocktail very fast and offered to bring him a new one! Very observant and we appreciated the attention to detail. Wonderful wine pairing recommendation as well. We will definitely be returning!
Always a great place to celebrate any occasion. A St Paul gem!
Let me first say - I am a fan of WA Frost which is why I booked a table for 9 for my wife's birthday surprise. Typically, I would suspect slower than average service for this large of a group especially if the restaurant is full (which is was not at 50% capacity). Basically, the service provided was shotty at best. Our drinks came late or had to be ordered twice by party. Large gaps between server face time occurred between apps, main course, desert, etc. leading to our meal being around 4 hours start to finish. This seemed ... read more
