The News Room on Nicollet Mall seems like a nice, casual-dining restaurant.
I ate there one recent spring afternoon and enjoyed a delicious “Chicago-style” beef sandwich (what the Pat’s Philly cheesesteak I recently sampled and reviewed SHOULD have been), an iced tea, great weather and, from my patio seat, some fun people-watching.
The service was a bit lackluster, so watching the passing tableau was a nice diversion. It was only one meal but based on my experience, I would try the News Room again.
