Executive Chef Jack Riebel combines over 20 years of leadership and experience in some of the finest restaurants in the Twin Cities including Dakota Jazz Club & Restaurant (Minneapolis), La Belle Vie (Stillwater), Goodfellow’s – An American Restaurant (Minneapolis). Recent awards include Minnesota Monthly’s Food & Wine Experience Local Chef Challenge, The American Cheese Society Chef Cook Off and most recently a James Beard Award Semifinalist for Best Chef Midwest & Best New Restaurant.

Today, finely crafted food tuned to the Midwestern palate come together in Chef Riebel’s hands at Butcher & the Boar. With a love of seasonal foods and a touch of heat, Chef Riebel draws inspiration from food and drink found in regions across America.

with flavor and served in a communal dining environment. Chef Riebel’s menu appeals to the cooler side of Minnesota, and we’re not talking weather.
