Best Restaurants for Business Meals in Shakopee

We had an outstanding birthday celebration luncheon at Ciao Bella. Our server, Jordan, was professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and very helpful. He’s really one of the best in the industry! We can always count on Ciao Bella, for an excellent dining experience: our beet salad was exceptional , my butternut squash soup was fabulous, the calamari was tasty and fresh, and the braised lamb pasta was perfect. Thank you for an amazing meal and excellent service!

We have a tradition of going to Manny's on Thanksgiving for lobster and it was fantastic! The chef served us deconstructed whole lobsters in a beautiful presentation served by Sean. Great cocktails, wine, and amazing food. (No turkey!). Beautiful night at this amazing restaurant that always delivers a wonderful experience!

First time experience with the Thanksgiving buffet at Redstone and it did not disappoint. We were joined by our brother and SIL who had asked that we arrive an hour early to enjoy a beverage at the bar. We discovered that the actual buffet was arranged on either side of the bar and so a drink at the bar wasn't an option. Fortunately, the restaurant was able to accommodate us early for dinner. We didn't care for the first table they were giving us in another room. Found the room to be a bit sterile and cold. Requested a booth and were moved quickly into the other room. Lovely view and always enjoy the ambience. I'm not much for a traditional Thanksgiving meal and this buffet had something for everyone. The food was awesome as usual and it was all you could eat! We were able to order drinks from the server and also yummy as usual. Our server, Sidney, was wonderful! When you aren't able to attend a family gathering, this was the perfect alternative. A big THANK YOU to the restaurant staff for giving up their holiday to allow others to enjoy it.

We had Thanksgiving dinner. Reservations required. It was awesomely, crazily busy. We had a 3:15pm reservation but couldn’t be seated until 3:45. Just watching the staff - wow, so many people rushing around at speed. When we were seated, the service was quick and professional. Despite the number of people we could still have a conversation - good acoustics, maybe because it’s broken up into rooms. The food was excellent. Definitely more than our usual budget, but we were pleasantly stuffed and took home leftovers. $69 per person (Nov 2024) and we pushed that a lot higher with our glasses of wine. Great experience. Would definitely consider going again. Next time reserve early, and as early in the day as possible to avoid the reservation stack up delays.

Met a business colleague there for lunch and was impressed. Lots of light made the space feel open and airy. Menu was diverse. I chose the meatloaf which was a daily lunch feature and my friend had the Reuben which he said was excellent and looked amazing. The meatloaf was very good and a large portion. I would come back for happy hour to see who the restaurant draws in the evening.
