About this business

Located across the street from our original deli, Broders' Cucina Italiana, Broders' Pasta Bar has taken the art of fresh pasta one step further. While the Cucina sells pasta to customers who want to cook at home, the pasta bar was designed to delight our customers with pasta cooked the way it is meant to be. Each of the 22 or so pasta and risotto on the menu are cooked to order and served steaming hot. Those seated at the bar get the best view of our pasta chefs cooking their dish, which is always 'al dente' and carefully t... read more

Never again! Decided to revisit an old favorite in our old neighborhood. We were treated very poorly. It's too bad because we used to love Broders. There are too many awesome restaurants in Minneapolis to get treated like that ever again. We will not be back.

Check this place out! – Service was excellent! They were very accomodating to our large party. I left them in a bad spot leaving a large table open for longer then they would probably like and they were very understanding and worked with me. I had the linguini with Lobster and it was excellent! Flavors were great. Also tried the roasted garlic appetizer and it was very good as well. Love the cracker things in the bread baskets too!

Slipping (but just a little) as she grows older – Broder's delivers the perfect recipe for relaxation and flavor, but should consider the customer's experience a little bit more. The ever circulating menu - though still wonderful - is recirculating upon itself a lot and it seems needs some new inspiration from the outside. That said (and in an impossible catch-22) don't' change a thing. Broder's is the perfect summer evening retreat. For love, or for loss.

Quite a let down – The food was not as described on the menu. I waited almost an extra 45 minutes beyond my reservation to be seated. I also emailed Broders about my concerns prior to this post but they failed to respond to my concerns. Don't waste your time here.....believe me there are better things you can do with three hours!

great pasta - feels like Italy! – Very fun place to eat - small and cozy with a great neighborhood feel. I love its coziness, but on a busy night the wait can sometimes be frustrating. We made the mistake of not calling ahead once and waited quite a while, so now we have learned to call ahead. Still, it is worth a wait. We are close enough for take out, which we also enjoy, but the pasta (homemade) is absolutely best when you eat it there. I love the lamb/eggplant - especially on a cold night - real comfort food. Try not to ... read more

Gotta Love Broders – Broders is small, cramped and hard to get into but no one puts it out like they do. This place really makes pasta the is outstanding. You go there for the best plate of pasta in town. You have to try it to get it. I recommend calling ahead to get you name on the list.

Pasta, Pasta And More Pasta – I thought the pizza was good at the deli then I tried the pasta across the street and wow! I never had anything so good. Broders seems to know what they are doing. There are lots of choices, enough to please everyone. I had a pasta with lamb, olives, goat cheese and rosemary that was outstanding. Others at the table had a great Bolognese, a pasta with truffle cream and cheese and one with a simple tomato sauce. All were really, really good. Don't miss this one.

THERE IS NO OTHER PLACE FOR PASTA IN TOWN! – Broders Pasta Bar can become an addiction, an obsession if you don't watch out. There are so many great pasta dishes to choose from on the menu that are really, truly delicious. Needless to say, I am a regular. My first experience was Number 11, a pasta with chicken and prosciutto, almonds, asparagus and fresh greens tossed with homemade noodles and some sort of creamy but light sauce... incredible. Anyway, it took awhile before I started to order other dishes on the menu - and th... read more

Worth the wait – I went on a Friday night and had to wait for over an hour--but it was SO worth it. We drank a bottle of wine while waiting, and the staff and atmosphere were great. Best pasta I've found in Minneapolis (and quite frankly ever, outside of Italy).
