Revival St. Paul

What happened to our beloved Revival?! It’s not the place I was knew and loved…inside needs a revival. The space is dirty, beat up (dirty walls, chipped paint and plaster, cheap and messy looking storage). The ambiance was all off - the lighting over the bar reminded me of 3pm at MSP (dim it down!). The service was slow - we sat at the bar and only one bartender was working, with no bartender (and a concert at the Xcel was going on that night!). The food was decent, but not excellent (burger was small, mustard slaw wasn’t fresh, Tennessee hot fries were over-dressed). But the weirdest part was this marTINI. This photo was taken right as it was served to me. I finished it in 3 sips. I was shocked the bartender thought this was appropriate.

We have been to the Mpls and The St Paul locations. Both were excellent. Great atmosphere. Amazing food. Fantastic service. I have always been a huge fan of Nashville Hot Chicken. I've been to Tennessee numerous times and Revivals Fried Chicken rivals anything I've ever had in the south. I would also add the Belgian waffle is the best I've ever had.

When I tell you these were the best chicken and waffles I ever had BELIEVE ME. So good the fried chicken was so crispy and flavorful and the waffles amazing. Highly recommend this place.

Food and service great. Bathrooms need work

Great brunch and cozy patio.

Every now and then I get the hankering for broasted chicken and this is the place to go. The sides are very good and during the fair weather, the outside patio is the place to be.

So fun waitress so so so so so so gooooood/super nice . Sat right by the fireplace nice and cosy. Kid-friendliness: My kids were having SO much fun with me and mom ❤️.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
