I have 7:30PM tickets to Jersey Boys at the Orpheum Theater in March. Where is a good place to dine after the performance? I won%26#39;t have a car so preferably it should be within walking distance or a short taxi ride. I%26#39;ll be staying at the Marquette so it could be close to there too.
After Theater Dining
Closest place would be Solera. I%26#39;m personally lukewarm on the place (Spanish/tapas) but most of my friends think it%26#39;s the cat%26#39;s pajamas.
What kind of food do you like? And are you by yourself? Looking for intimate seating, casual, high end, etc ...
After Theater Dining
Plenty of options all in a few block radius.
the newest restaurant is R.Normans -

Otherwise here%26#39;s a short list -
Fogo (Brazilian steakhouse)
Murrays, Mortons, Ruth Chris, or Capital Grille for steakhouses
Melting Pot if into fondue
Palomino
Rock Bottom
Mission (inside the Marquette Crystal Court)
Manhattans
- or taxi to Nicollet Island Inn - farther north on Hennepin
You have the perfect opportunity to dine at my favorite restaurant in town, the 112 eatery. It is next to impossible to get reservations at a normal dining hour at 112, but you won%26#39;t be dining till around 10:00 p.m., and the kitchen is open until Midnight Monday through Thursday and 1:00 a.m. Friday and Saturday. It%26#39;s the perfect place for after theater dining.

I%26#39;d definitely second the recommendation for 112. Although truth be told, you%26#39;ll need a cab or willingness to walk a pretty good distance. It%26#39;s not terribly far, but usually women dressed for the theater prefer walks ranging from short to none.
Cab would be $5. The fare to 112 will be worth it. Food is fantastic. Atmosphere is cozy and the wine pours are generous. Seems like a place that should be more expensive. To me, that%26#39;s high praise.
I really like the lamb chop appetizer.
Oh, and even at that late hour, you still should make a reservation.
Across the street from Solera which by the way is great is the Chamber%26#39;s Kitchen in the Chambers Hotel. Even if you don%26#39;t eat there you should check out the amazing art work and the outdoor bar made of ice. This place has one of the best vibes in Mpls. I plan on bringing all my out of town guest there just to experience the place.
Susangal, while people have given you very good suggestions, I just realized you won%26#39;t be getting out of the theater until around 10:00 p.m., and looking at the Orpheum schedule, I see that you have tickets for a Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday. Most of the places listed will be closing at 10:00 on those evenings, except for bar food. Given all that, I would like to give another shout out for 112 eatery. Since they are open until Midnight on those evenings, you won%26#39;t be rushed to finish your meal. After the show, go out the front door of the theater, and take a cab. It%26#39;s about a six block drive down the street, so it should just take a few minutes. As already suggested, I would call the restaurant now and make a reservation for 10:15 or so. Tell them you%26#39;ll be coming from Jersey Boys.
