Reservations for new Four Seasons Hotel Minneapolis restaurant Mara go live at noon today
Mara, from chef Gavin Kaysen, brings the taste of the Mediterranean to downtown Minneapolis' new luxury hotel.
May 23, 2022 at 3:22PM
The Mediterranean-inspired restaurant draws from Kaysen's experiences as a young chef traveling in the south of France. Thony Yang, who was a sous chef at Kaysen's Spoon and Stable and Demi, is the chef de cuisine.
If you can't get a time slot, there are other ways to experience food and beverage at downtown Minneapolis' new tower, at the corner of Hennepin and Washington avenues.
Mara's bar, which will also serve food, is overseen by beverage director Adam Witherspoon, who is making housemade ratafias alongside cocktail classics. The bar does not require reservations. Nor does the casual street-front cafe Socca, which offers grab-and-go food and espresso drinks.
And on the fourth floor, Riva Terrace serves even more Mediterranean fare poolside, courtesy of hotel executive chef Martín Morelli.

Mara is located at 245 Hennepin Av., Mpls., mararestaurantandbar.com.
Lefse-wrapped Swedish wontons, a soothing bowl of rice porridge and a gravy-laden commercial filled our week with comfort and warmth.
