Reserve the Dakota

“Lavish digs, mind-blowing acts and the best comfort food this side of cool”

The Dakota is one of the most unique events spaces in the city. Its multi-level design allows for multiple group spaces with varied views of the stage and levels of privacy. For more information please email Joe Doermann at joe@dakotacooks.com with the following information: the date you’re interested in, the estimated size of your party and what type of event you’re looking to hold (cocktail reception, sit down dinner, etc.) or call 612-332-1010 ext.723 and talk to Joe about arranging that perfect party, dinner or private show.
“I wanted to let you know that our holiday party at the Dakota was a huge success. Several people told me it was the best holiday party we have ever had. What a relief to me – and a reflection of the fabulous service we received that night. Thanks so much for making it so easy for me to plan and execute a really great holiday party. Fun was had by all!”

We have 2 private dining rooms, which can each accommodate up to 30 for seated lunches or dinners. The main dining room can be made private for up to 70 of your guests. The mezzanine overlooking the stage in the Club can accommodate 90 for receptions and 60 for seated dinners. The entire Dakota can accommodate 250 seated or 350 for cocktail / standing events.

Chefs Kristin Tyborski and Derik Moran will make sure that any private event, regardless of size, gets the very best work from the kitchen. From sit down meals for 10 to banquets for 350 people, the kitchen staff is ready. Arrange a meeting with Joe and the Chef to create a special menu for your special event.
Thank you again for coordinating a wonderful lunch for our group. The entire experience was absolutely wonderful! The menu items you suggested including the soup, salad and dessert were all fabulous. Not only in taste but in presentation as well. I was lucky enough to sit at a table where I was able to try everything – your chef is amazing!!! I look forward to returning for dinner!”
