What People Are Saying About JD Hoyt's
The Editor

Citysearch
In Short – Culinarily savvy owners Mike Andrews and John White made J.D. Hoyt's in the image of the classic 1950s roadhouses, complete with relish trays, garlic-cheese toast and smart servers--and named it after their dads. It's a place to sink into a padded booth, knock back a martini and savor a meal. There's prime steaks, seafood and the restaurant's signature double pork chop, grilled over charcoal and served with herb butter and Cajun or jerk spices.

top notch restaurant
by ron shaw
We started with salads. I had classic wedge. The lettuce was crispiest ever. Wife had dinner salad, also excellant. Main course for me was pork chops with hash browns. Pork chops are to die for. Hash browns were like a mashed potatoe pattie(huge) that was way over spiced. Wife had same thoughts. Wife had scallops with agrautons(sp) that were simply fantastic. The service was the best. From owner Pat to our waitress to the valet staff. Price was $72 for the 2 of us without drinks. Will definetly be back.
- Pros: pork chops are the best
- Cons: pass on hash browns

The WORST steakhouse I've ever been to
by markv1313
While visiting Minneapolis on business, I went to this restaurant for dinner. Mistake #1. The service was horrible and by "horrible" I mean slow and rude. My waitress was so bad I had to ask for the manager - the owner came over, and spoke with her. She was worse for the rest of the meal. I travel alot with work. This was quite literally the worst service I have ever had in any steakhouse across the country. The food was not bad BUT not good for the price. The steak (10oz. filet) was dry and over cooked. I'm not from Minneapolis, but I would hope the city could offer a better choice. Next time, I'll stick with a national chain like S&W or Ruth Chris.
- Pros: None
- Cons: horrible service and below average food

Great bartender, great martinis
by gawkerslowdown
Excellent service and martinis. Food was OK. There were too many children for a Saturday night at a "supper club", but I only visited once.
- Pros: martinis
- Cons: children

Except for the breaded catfish, most seafood is listed on the daily blackboard at market prices.
Where to Sit:
The bar, with its commodious booths and quiet sports theme. The back-room addition is less comforting.
