Restaurant · Minneapolis, MN · Since 1946

The overview

Home of the Silver Butter Knife Steak

Murray's has been downtown Minneapolis's classic steakhouse since 1946, a third-generation family room famous for its 'Silver Butter Knife Steak' — a garlic-buttered sirloin for two carved tableside — with warm garlic toast and raspberry pie to finish.

Pink-walled, white-tableclothed, and romantically old-fashioned, Murray's is the special-occasion institution generations of Minnesotans have marked anniversaries and graduations at for nearly eighty years.

A signal you can check.

This is a dated award record, published by The Centurion Awards after Murray's cleared the 2025 evaluation for its market and category. It was not bought, voted on, or sponsored — the criteria are public, only winners are published, and an award that stops holding up is revoked, not quietly removed. Awards run one calendar year and renew only if the business clears the bar again. For everything else — hours, bookings, live reviews — go straight to the business itself.
