The brothers Ikeda run this Uptown spot where Asian meets Mediterranean meets Minnesotan. Surprisingly, it all works in a cozy pub-like atmosphere. Try the fried chicken sandwich.

From the Restaurant
Lake & Irving is a culinary-focused neighborhood restaurant in Uptown Minneapolis (and now operating a curbside pop-up in Savage, MN). Chris Ikeda and the rest of the L&I team strive to create an atmosphere that is casual but classy, serving food that is elevated but approachable. Many of our food and drink offerings are recognizable American classics, but every item on the menu is expertly crafted using cuisines and techniques from all over the world.
This spring, Lake & Irving is open for limited on-site dining as well as curbside takeout & delivery. We are open 7 days a week for dinner, and Friday-Sunday for lunch and brunch. Reservations, menus, and online ordering can all be found at www.lakeandirving.com. Our Restaurant Week menus will be available both on-site and for curbside takeout.
NEW CONCEPT COMING THIS SPRING: The L&I team are taking their talents to the suburbs! Lake & Irving has taken over the kitchen of the former Perkins Restaurant in Savage, MN and is currently running a "Lake & Irving Curbside Pop-Up" to offer Savage and the surrounding communities another takeout option (later this year, we'll flip the space into a brand new concept with dine-in and takeout). We'll be offering our February 2021 Restaurant Week Takeout specials at this location alongside some of our tried and true favorites from Uptown. For all the news and updates on this project, visit www.lakeandirving.com/savage
