Meritage is an award-winning, chef-driven, independent, and owner-operated, restaurant nestled into the heart of beautiful downtown Saint Paul. This husband and wife team offer a traditional French menu, along with seasonal creations. Chef Klein has been a 4-time semi-finalist for the James Beard Award, the restaurant wins local food awards annually, and has been recognized for service and hospitality as well, winning 2 Charlie's Awards for Best Service. Meritage is a 4 star establishment, without pomp and pretension. With vaulting ceilings, picture windows with the best views of the most historic buildings and 1-2 blocks from every major event venue downtown, Meritage is as centrally located as you can be in Saint Paul. Offering a lovely terrace for urbane outdoor dining in Summer, as well as offering an Oyster Bar - this little gem is a must-see for anyone visiting, and part of the core culinary community locally for more than a decade. The wine list is French focused, offering more than 350 selections, and a reserve list. The bar produced craft cocktails, as well as a solid beer selection of both European, and some the best of our local breweries. Reservations are strongly recommended. There is no specific dress code, as we host suits to jerseys, gowns to capris. All are welcome. Dogs welcome on the terrace during season. (We are unable to take reservations specifically for the terrace due to the unpredictable nature of MN weather)
