Atmosphere is wonderful, unfortunately the food did not meet the expectations. The pork chop was completely raw in the middle. Appetizers were pretty good.

The food at this place is simply heavenly! From the vibrant salads to the mouthwatering bruschetta, gnocchi, and salmon, every dish is exquisite. The flavors are perfectly balanced, and each bite is a delightful experience. And the flan? Absolutely perfect! It's creamy, smooth, and just the right amount of sweetness to end your meal on a high note. The service is top-notch, with attentive and friendly staff who make you feel right at home. This is a spot you absolutely cannot miss, whether you're a local or just passing through. It's a dining experience that will leave you wanting to come back for more!

Martina is a reliably great spot! My experience with the food over 3 visits has either been good or amazing, so no complaints there. Service was smooth and friendly every time + the space is lovely.

Good food, good service, and a good date place! They do take reservations but if you happen to just fancy a visit, a seat at the bar is awesome! We received great service from Rachel at the bar and would recommend sitting there as you can experience an awesome performance of cocktail artistry!

Wow! This place was amazing. I've always wanted to go but never had the chance. We came here for a celebration and were so pleased. The server knew their stuff and was able to describe the food very well. We had a spot near the window, which allowed us a view of the entire place. Very cozy with the dark lighting but also very clean with all the greenery. The food was amazing and we cannot wait to go back.

I've been to Martina a handful of times and it's always on my recommendations list. The ambiance, the staff, the food - it's always consistently an enjoyable experience. Super busy on the weekends so would highly recommend a reservation. There is off-street free parking on the side of the building down a bit. I pretty much always get the Cacio E Pepe Ravioli because when you like something, you like something. But the most important thing on the menu is the POTATO CHURROS. I don't know how to describe how perfectly these things are cooked, it's like crispy on the outside but mashed potato consistency on the inside. When I visit with friends, we always get one to share for the table but then I also order my own, I love them that much. If you like potatoes, I promise this won't disappoint! Brunch is also pretty good although I usually prefer to go for dinner.

Martina has been quickly became one of my favorite spots. Whether you are wanting a dinner date, quick drink with the girls or after dinner drinks and dessert they have what you may not even know you need. Let's start with drinks old fashioned and espresso martini they nail both of these every time! Appetizers are a must potato churros and empanadas the flavor of both cannot be beat. The last visit was for gnocchi night and it was incredible we had potato gnocchi, oxtail and mushroom pasta our group shared all because the flavors were all different and unique! Then desert the cherry on top! Panqueque a crepe with bananas, Carmel and fresh mascarpone. Incredible! Server was attentive, had great suggestions and was very friendly. Beautiful space.

Martina is a modern Argentinian restaurant located in the Linden Hill area of Minneapolis. The ambiance of this restaurant was excellent: chic, open, and airy. The main dining room has high ceiling which could make the acoustics a bit noisy. Still, it had a good vibe. We ordered the one pound steamed mussels with country bread. I highly recommend this dish! The sauce was made with sea urchin which added great umami, lime, white wine, garlic and red peppers for a nice kick. The country bread was perfectly charred and went nicely with the broth. The broth was so flavorful that after we finished mopping the bread with it, my partner drank it! If you like mussels, I highly recommend this dish! The second dish was the potato gnocchi and that was simple and delicious. Service was excellent. We were there to celebrate an anniversary and happily received complimentary wine and mock-tail. This restaurant does get booked up so I recommend making a reservation in advance.

Finally made it here to eat, and it did not disappoint! We got there early with reservations, and it still took some time on a Friday night to be seated. There was quite the wait, but it was worth it. The drink menu was full of local options and fancy, fun cocktails. The mule was delicious, and all the NA options were impressive. For starters, we did the sea scallops. They were flavorful and perfectly cooked! Scallops can be gritty and rubbery if not done well. Main entrees were spaghetti and the mushroom pasta. My partner doesn't even like mushrooms, and he said you couldn't even tell these were mushrooms! The flavors were hearty and robust. Lastly, I recommend getting the banana pancake dessert, perfectly sweetened with some honey crunchy candy pieces.
