I came here tonight for a work dinner with 20 other colleagues and was surprisingly pleased! I didn't know this restaurant existed until tonight.  I really haven't spent much time at this part of St. Paul, and I'm starting to think I'm really missing…More »

I stay at the Radisson when I come down to Des Moines for business, and it's always the easiest option to go to Johnny's for dinner.  

The decor is really intimate, dark woods, and low lightings.  Better than I expected for this type of restaurant.…More »

I'm usually really skeptical of chain restaurants, even though I know they try hard to make themselves look like it's special.  I'm also not a big fan of Italian food (although I'm slowly being swayed).  I had bad experiences eating out at "Italian"…More »

I've been waiting to go here for so long and I finally got to go! I didn't read on yelp about the No Reservations thing, but the wait wasn't too bad.  We sat up front and enjoyed a glass of wine.  

The place is smaller than I expected and is quite…More »

I am now a fan of Rinata.  My first time there, I was happy with 2/3 courses.  The dessert made me really disappointed.
