Welcome to Murray's Restaurant. Minneapolis' original restaurant for steak since 1946 & home of the award winning Silver Butterknife Steak dinner for two. Also known for mouth watering garlic toast, Hickory Smoked shrimp appetizer, and home baked pies. Well into its third generation of family ownership, Murray's stands out among local and out of town diners alike as a true Twin Cities landmark & continues to provide the best in food and service as it did in 1946.

    It's my favorite restaurant. Always a phenomenal evening at Murray's! They made the holidays extra special, too. Very accommodating to our needs for an earlier reservation as well as an extra seat.

    Food and ambience was great. Our waiter however was very inattentive. We were half way through our meal before he noticed we were out of drinks. He also never followed up to ask how the food was and just brought us our check. We had to ask another staff member to bring us bread because that was forgotten.
