One of the things that truly sets Pizza Pub apart is our unique pizza sauce. If you’ve ever tried our pizza, you know there’s simply no comparison when it comes to the flavor of our sauce. It’s this dedication to taste and quality that has earned us the award for the "Best House Special" in Minnesota. Our Pizza Pub Special is a testament to everything we stand for: it starts with pepperoni, sausage, and ground beef, followed by mushrooms, green olives, diced onions, and diced green peppers, all topped off with the same award-winning 100% REAL® Wisconsin mozzarella cheese that’s been part of our recipe since day one.

• Steak • Roseville
Booked 122 times today
If you're going to take your name from a badass like the patron saint of blacksmiths, you better be able to back it up. Baldamar marks the turning point where we usher in the new standard for style, service and steak. It means the menu’s made with old-world craft at its core and modern day meat eaters in mind — with flavors forged in fire and folded into pure primal perfection. It’s where every steak is aged 40 days and 40 nights for a taste of biblical proportion, and where crazy-fresh seafood means it was caught during your morning commute. At the bar sits every spirit imaginable, and someone who isn’t afraid to use them. This is more than a new steakhouse. It’s a line in the sand. It’s not just where you celebrate special occasions. It’s where you create them.*A 20% Service Fee is added to all groups of 6 or more.

A modern-Argentinian wood fire steakhouse, with a wide variety of seafood, vegetable and pasta dishes. We also have private event options that showcase the best of what we have to offer. DANIEL DEL PRADOBorn in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Chef Daniel del Prado is the child of parents of Spanish and southern Italian descent. After moving to the United States in his early 20s, del Prado began his culinary career in Colorado—cooking at night and snowboarding during the day. Upon moving to Minneapolis, he had the opportunity to work in some of the finest kitchens in the Twin Cities. In 2009 del Prado teamed up with his mentor, Isaac Becker, to open Bar La Grassa in the North Loop. When it came time for del Prado to open his own concepts, he burst onto the Twin Cities scene with his premiere Linden Hills restaurant, Martina, and opened the Oaxacan Mexican-influenced Colita just a year after. Chef del Prado has continued to open new and innovative concepts.
