Via’s Cafe & Bar – Edina, MN
About a year ago, Via Cafe & Bar www.viacafebar.com opened along the France Avenue corridor of Edina. The cross street is the 6700 block, 6740 France to be exact. This is just across France avenue from Southdale Mall and the Galleria.
Via’s boasts one of the nicest and more relaxing patios in the city (aside from a little residual traffic noise from France ave). This patio has a beautiful decor, comfortable tables and seating, with ample room. The patio is a classy setup with a gas and glass stone fire-pit, heat lamps, nice shade and an ample bar.
Indoors are 3 dining-rooms, all very nice. One dining-room has discreet electrical connections for business and free wireless internet access.
The menu is mid-to-upscale fare and all I’ve sampled so far is quite good.
I’ve stopped here for business twice in the afternoon (patio) and once last night after seeing the latest Batman installment ‘Dark Knight’ at the Southdale movie complex.
Wendy and I had the Chocolate Lava dessert – which was what we had hoped for. This was a nice oasis stop @ 10PM, and still serving desserts and a bar menu. It was beautiful at night.
Via’s location is very convenient, especially for the late-eve hunger and/or night-cap.
Via Cafe & Bar is owned and operated by Hemisphere Restaurant Partners (they own a number of good restaurants in the Twin Cities area). It seems as though they’ve not missed the mark yet!
Try this restaurant, you will not be disappointed.
