Some friends and I dined at the Chambers Kitchen this past Saturday and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. First of all, the atmosphere is beautiful. The lighting is very flattering. All of the appetizers were great, especially the tuna. I know tuna's been overdone in recent years, but the chefs at the Chambers do it with a spin, giving it a nice crunchy coating while preserving the rareness that is essential for tuna. I tried everyone's entrees, and I must say that while all tasted great, my duck was my favorite. The combination of textures was wonderful. Desserts were lovely as well, especially the passionfruit souffle. Our server, Patrick, was able to recommend two bottles of wine to please everyone at the table. The service was polished, efficient, and friendly throughout dinner, without being obtrusive or chummy, which is a nice change from many of the restaurants in the area. I am new to Minneapolis and have finally found a restaurant to which I can proudly take friends and clients visiting from more cosmopolitan cities. My only concern is that the Chambers will lower standards in order to become more ""down-home"" and to appeal to the less sophisticated customer that abounds in the area.
Pros: Service, Food, Lighting
Cons: No restroom on restaurant level
