Description

James Beard Award-winning chef Tim McKee took over the Guthrie's first-floor restaurant space and transformed it into a sustainable seafood eatery that's quickly become among the best places to dine in the Twin Cities. Erik Anderson's cooking is a marvel--flavor pairings pop and textures intrigue in such dishes as arctic char with white beans and artichoke giardiniera, linguini with rock shrimp and sea urchin, and more. (The non-seafood dishes are equally well executed, plus the cocktail and dessert lists are stellar.) The raw bar features everything from fresh oysters to yellowfin poke. And to eat all this guilt-free? Priceless.

  • 2013 | Best Seafood Restaurant

    The salty spray of a cool ocean mist and the tiny grains of sand squishing between your bare toes are an itch we Midwestern folks don't have an easy time scratching. The best we can do is belly up to the raw bar at Sea Change and slurp down some of its artfully prepared seafood dishes. Freshly caught scallops, clams, oysters, and sea urchin are handled with the utmost care to preserve their fragile flesh and flavor. The langoustines are one of the best dishes in the Twin Cities, served with... More »

  • 2012 | Best Seafood Restaurant

    Minnesota may have 10, 000 lakes, but only recently has our fair state gotten recognition as a major player in the world of seafood. Tim McKee's Sea Change, with its commitment to using seafood only from fisheries that are environmentally responsible, has been integral to that shift in perception. Everything from the sustainably farmed oysters at the raw bar to the furniture made of reclaimed materials to the glass vessels used for drinking water is re-used, recycled, or renewable. That may...

  • 2011 | Best Seafood Restaurant

    Since we're in a landlocked state, you'd think it would be hard to find a winner for this category. And it is--if only because Sea Change continually dominates. Chef Erik Anderson has caught the eye of national press for his innovative take on seafood with spot-on flavor pairings. Sea Change looks like a restaurant dedicated to sustainable fish should--like an avant-garde art museum on the ocean floor. Sleek and modern, the space is blue all around, with floor-to-ceiling windows... More »

  • 2010 | BEST SEAFOOD RESTAURANT

    Demand for seafood is rising faster than high tide, as it's an extremely healthy, tasty, and nutritious protein. But its increasing popularity has stressed the oceans' stocks, and poor fishing methods have caused serious ecological damage. Worse, consumer information about sustainable seafood tends to be fast-changing and confusing. Fortunately, we can find some relief at Sea Change, James Beard Award-winning chef Tim McKee's new restaurant in the Guthrie Theater. McKee's team has done its... More »
