Nosy Neighbor Tour - Eastside Restaurant
Reader Julie Craven toured the soon to open Eastside Restaurant on a "Nosy Neighbor" tour with Mill City Commons, here's the inside scoop from Julie:
Eastside restaurant isn't quite open for business, but Executive Chef Remy Pettus and General Manager Tyler Lineburg gave Mill City Commons members a sneak peak last week. The restaurant, located at 3rd and Washington Avenue, in the Latitude 45 building, is the latest project by Ryan Burnet, known for Minneapolis restaurant favorites that include Barrio, Bar La Grassa and Burch Steak & Pizza.
The centerpiece for the 164 seat restaurant is a wood-burning brick oven, so large it was installed first, and the restaurant was then built around it. There are two private dining areas, one adjacent to the kitchen called the Chefs Table and the other, larger room features street views and seats 30. Windows lining the bar area will open to the outside for patio dining guests. Pettus highlighted the seating, including two, high top tables in the center of the restaurant that he described as "the kitchen tables and the best seats in the house." Pettus went on to describe the fare as fresh and simply prepared for what he described as a "fun, young American take on a brasserie."
The website is being finalized and Eastside will begin taking reservations on September 21st. Opening date is set for September 29th.
