City PagesAugust 5, 2014It's about time that Kingfield had a real neighborhood hangout and King's seems to be just that: it's a café, a wine bar, a coffee shop, and a lounge. It even has its very own book club. Read more
Amy LotsbergApril 29, 2016Great service, wonderful food. We had a nice time. I recommend the Thai Basil Chicken. Very comforting.
Get the veggie burger. It is the goddam best veggie burger in minneapolis. Do it. Why are you still even looking at the rest of the tips?- City PagesFebruary 22, 2011Voted by City Pages as Best Wine Bar in 2010’s Best of the Twin Cities. You can order by the glass, but we recommend drinking with friends by the bottle.
Heavy TableAugust 25, 2009Get the tater tots: each tot seems to be assembled from a spool of insanely thin little spaghetti strands of potato, delicately coiled and stacked into the familiar stubby column. Read more
Joe CalderonFebruary 22, 2010Check out King's Wine bar. Great neighborhood cafe atmosphere... and the homemade tater tot app is worth a try. That's all we tried but we'll be back to try more of the menu soon.- City PagesFebruary 4, 2013What else is there to do when faced with layers of sheer ice on every walking surface but granny-shuffle into the nearest neighborhood bar for some liquid relief?

Amanda TheisenMay 5, 2012The Kings Burger is awesome! Nice & juicy & the caramelized onions and gruyere make it amazing!
Gennie LeeNovember 5, 2010IDK why ppl say get the tots. My friends and I werent big fan of it. Service was good, but waited 30 min for 12 tots. Good date/get together atmosphere. Wine and food were expansive...$22 for Pasta.
Jenna WollitzAugust 8, 2013Holy yummy kings burger! Do yourself a favor and upgrade to the tator tots! Yuummmm :)
ValCarey LundbergFebruary 19, 2012Try the tots and the Mac n cheese! Bus ski Sunday's....service a little on the slow side...
Amazing service, the wine Selection is great and the food is delicious! Especially the mushrooms !
Amazing staff, nice, quiet wine bar to chat in or even work/read, etc.
Tom VanceMay 30, 2011Great tater tots, especially the buffalo taters with the bleu cheese dressing. Also, had a very good berry crisp for dessert.
Sit at the bar with a laptop and use the handy power plug ins located every few feet right underneath the bar! (And don't forget there are purse hooks there as well.)
Come for Jake Rudh's DJ set on Yacht Rock night or any other time he spins. He is one " righteous dude"!
- A) get the veggie burger; b) add a fried egg to that shit. Now you've got something going.
Ed JordanAugust 20, 2011Service was odd. Empty tables but we couldn't choose our own. Large delicious cheese plate asked for more bread...3 pieces. Really WTF! Staff filling water looked at our half filled... Walked away.- First Tuesday of each month belongs to Dj Jake Rudh... different spinning theme each month!
- If you're going to have 3 glasses of any of the wines served by the glass, check the price list. It's probably worth it to just buy the bottle.
Fantastic wine selection and prices! Check out trivia on Monday nights for some great fun.
Went to kings for brunch this morning and was once again disappointed with the quality of service and food. This is definitely not the kings it was when it first opened. :(
The grilled cheese with a bowl of tomato soup is a killer combo. Goes well with a Farm Girl.
- Stop in for brunch (or anytime) and try the super spicy Kings Bloody Mary made with sake.
listen to awesome local music. Best music anywhere! Food and drinks rock, too.
- The "creme brulee" is a joke. I can appreciate a deconstructed dessert as much as the next guy, but this was caramel foam on a plate. Disappointing.
- Aaron LandryMarch 7, 2010Ask David de Young, the perpetual mayor, what bottle of wine to get. He is always correct.
studioLAugust 8, 2012"Oh, don't worry: I can pour this wine for myself..." What?! Not impressed that a wine bar can't provide bottle service properly.
