The vibe

Hai Hai is one of Minneapolis's most exciting restaurants — a tropical Southeast Asian street food bar helmed by James Beard-nominated chef Christina Nguyen. The space evokes a lush, festive night market atmosphere with rattan furniture, tropical plants, and vivid colors. The cocktail program is as playful and inventive as the food.
