Welcome to Murray's Restaurant. Minneapolis' original restaurant for steak since 1946 & home of the award winning Silver Butterknife Steak dinner for two. Also known for mouth watering garlic toast, Hickory Smoked shrimp appetizer, and home baked pies. Well into its third generation of family ownership, Murray's stands out among local and out of town diners alike as a true Twin Cities landmark & continues to provide the best in food and service as it did in 1946.

    This was our second visit to Murray’s and we were very happy with the full experience. The steaks were perfectly cooked and the side dishes were great. A special night for us was topped off with a fantastic desert, complimentary from the staff. We will be back!

    Tremendous Easter Lunch menu - NY strip was cooked perfectly and very tender. Service was on top of the details while maintaining a welcoming, friendly vibe. Great cocktails, steak, and overall experience - wonderful capstone to a weekend in Minnie!

    Melt in your mouth steaks with delicious sides! The desserts were amazing, and the raspberry pie did not disappoint.
