The space, which in previous lives was a Timber Lodge Steakhouse and an Asian buffet, has been transformed into a light-filled dining space along with a 40-seat patio. Other Yum locations are in St. Paul, Minnetonka and St. Louis Park, and all are open daily from 8 a.m. The Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board will open the new and improved Bde Maka Ska pavilion on Oct. 20, featuring a market and restaurant from Pimento Jamaican Kitchen. So fun, excellent food recommendations, very helpful and attentive. They are very fortunate to have such an amazing server. Plans were initially to keep the Dangerfield’s name and a similar theme, Donatell said.

The restaurant owner was able to figure out who’s briefcase it was and even spoke with his family. He was a rum-runner during prohibition who had dreams of opening is own bar. They’ve done it for him in the basement of Shakopee House. The supper club and tiki bar’s themes are heavily inspired by the building’s century-long history. Shakopee House CEO and co-owner Tony Donatell (pictured) and his team found historical relics during construction, including this leather travel case tucked away in the basement ceiling.

Had the parmesan shrimp appetizer and fish and chips. Shakopee House hopes to continue this legacy of long-established and respected restaurants in the building. To Donatell’s knowledge, all of Dangerfield’s employees will continue with Shakopee House.

Interpretations of the cocktail recipes found in his suitcase will be drinks offered at the tiki bar. After struggling to get a bar to show a Gophers women's softball game this past spring, the idea for the Twin Cities' first women's sports bar was born.

Early bird pricing is $29-$34 for kids, and $39-$44 for adults. For more information and tickets, go to bucketlisters.com. In brighter news, Zhora Darling is now open in northeast Minneapolis (509 1st Av. NE., Mpls., zhoradarling.com). The bar and restaurant take over the former Red Stag Supperclub, now with neon lights and a couple of pool tables. The menu, designed by Five Leaves — a Brooklyn restaurant — offers small plates, salads and sandwiches, including one with grilled pineapple, a pickled beet and a sunny-side-up egg.
Located in the pavilion's north building, it will be open seasonally. Donatell said for original supper clubs, most food was either French or Italian-influenced with some “Americanized” cuisine. The 100-plus-year-old building is crawling with history—a treasure trove of speakeasy lore and memories of a felonious past (literally, as the new owners found relics between the walls and behind bookshelves).
Perfect Patios for Fun Outdoor Options
The restaurant should be fully remodeled by mid-November. After seven years in downtown Excelsior, Red Sauce Rebellion (205 Water St., Excelsior, redsaucerebellion.com) is closing. Oct. 7 will be the last day of service for this Italian spot, where chef/owner Eli Wollenzien put creative twists on classic dishes. The building has been sold to another restaurant group, according to a social media post from the restaurant, and its lease is ending at the end of the month. Sister restaurant Coalition, just a few doors down, will remain open.

When the federal government came in and shut down all the illegal stuff that was happening in Shakopee, they put the gambling machines behind this wall and sealed it off,’” Donatell recalled. Additional findings within the building have included a moving bookshelf and decades of information gathered through the historical society. The restaurant is currently serving a bridge menu to help ease the transition into Shakopee House and see what menu items customers are gravitating toward. Remodeling has also taken place downstairs, where the Rum Row Basement Tiki Bar is being established. Rum Row centers around a tropical vacation feel and a bit of escapism, Donatell explained. The basement is expected to open in about two weeks.
As with many historical supper clubs in the Midwest, somewhere along the line rum became all the rage. During last fall’s renovation on the former restaurant, Dangerfield’s, a century-old leather suitcase was discovered in the basement rafters. It belonged to a man named Lawrence H. Cumberbatch, a “rum runner” during Prohibition and former bartender in the building—hence the building’s Caribbean-themed basement tiki bar called Rum Row. Supper Clubs are popping up all over the Twin Cities. The newest addition is in Shakopee, in the former Dangerfield’s space. While the main floor of Shakopee House gives off 1920’s glam, the basement offers something quite unexpected.
Beyond remodeling changes, Shakopee House’s new feel is also reflected in updated menus for both the supper club and tiki bar. The wait is over — the Malibu Barbie Cafe is opening Oct. 27 at the Mall of America (60 E. Broadway), and tickets are now available. Each reservation at the fast-casual restaurant includes a 90-minute dining window, a choice of entree and side dish, and access to exclusive merchandise and Barbie-branded interactive activities, from a life-size Barbie box to roller skating. Tickets for the concept, from Mattel and Bucket Listers, are priced according to when you visit and what you order (entrees range from sandwiches and salads to breakfast favorites and have to be selected at checkout).
"After surviving COVID and the mandated shutdowns that came with it, we thought we had made it through the darkest days hospitality would ever see. In many ways, this is worse." In the south building is Pimento Market, which will offer a curated selection of "gifts and goodies" from more than 20 mission-driven BIPOC vendors. I came here when it was Dangerfield and now came back to a new name restaurant (felt the same). The atmosphere was welcoming and the server was really nice.
But when construction began in June, he and his team made historical discoveries that inspired a new idea for the space. This restaurant space has been in Shakopee for around a century, once home to restaurants like The Millpond Club and a previous Shakopee House. Dangerfield’s owner Gus Khwice and staff more recently celebrated their restaurant’s 30th anniversary last December. Shakopee House, a brand new supper club, is taking over from Dangerfield’s.
At the same time, it’s an ode to the restaurants past. During renovations, the team discovered a suitcase in the walls. Inside were post cards, bottles of rum and drink recipes.
There is good news for fans of the lower-level rum bar. Rum Row will be moving to Chanhassen, to the backroom of the restaurant group's Tequila Butcher. "This move will allow us to keep our fun, tropical tiki bar alive in a beautiful space that won't flood and has a covered patio," Donatell wrote. Donatell and his team got in contact with Cumberbatch’s family and learned more about his life. He was a “rum runner” during prohibition, regularly traveling between the United States and the Caribbean. Shakopee House, a new supper club in town, has made menu and decor renovations to bring guests back in time to a 1940s-era supper club and speakeasy.
"So they didn't take too kindly to the prohibition rules." When owners started renovating the old Dangerfield's, they discovered a treasure of artifacts in the walls.
