Dessert Restaurants in Minnesota

When Guy Fieri rolled his red Camaro into the Land of 10,000 Lakes, he discovered that Minnesota’s dessert scene is just as impressive as its legendary landscapes. Between 2008 and 2016, the Mayor of Flavortown featured 4 sweet-slinging establishments across the North Star State, and the results speak for themselves—these spots average an outstanding 4.6-star rating from devoted customers.

From the shores of Lake Superior to the Twin Cities suburbs, Minnesota’s dessert destinations prove that this Midwestern state knows how to satisfy a sweet tooth. The Duluth Grill has earned a stellar 4.7-star rating with its creative comfort food and indulgent treats, while Gordy’s Hi-Hat in Cloquet matches that impressive score with classic American fare that keeps locals coming back generation after generation. Down in White Bear Lake, Donatelli’s rounds out the top performers with a 4.6-star rating. With 3 of these 4 featured restaurants still serving up memorable bites today, there’s never been a better time to embark on your own Triple D dessert tour through Minnesota.
