Elevate Your Restaurant Week Experience at LaunchPad Golf The Meadows
Restaurant Week is back at LaunchPad Golf The Meadows, and if last time is any indication, you’ll want a reservation before you finish reading this.
Running July 13 through July 19, 2026, this summer’s menus are a fresh showcase of what the kitchen here does best: ingredients that mean something, plates that look as good as they taste, and a dining experience that consistently catches people off guard—all in the best possible way.
February’s Restaurant Week Drew Rave Reviews:
Last Restaurant Week, Twin Cities Live’s Ben Leber and Kelli Hanson came in and got a meal that stopped them mid-sentence. The reaction from the KSTP crew: genuine surprise that a place like LaunchPad was putting out food this elevated.
They weren’t alone. Four local food and travel influencers joined us for the full three-course experience with no script and no expectations. The consensus was the same across all four: the kitchen earns its reputation, and the value is hard to argue with.
That reputation is what this summer’s menus are built on.
Restaurant Week Menus at LaunchPad Golf The Meadows
Two-Course Lunch | $23
The lunch menu opens with sweet corn fritters before moving into your choice of main—a Puerto Rican “tripleta” sandwich with smoked pork, ham, and skirt steak, or a Thai beef salad with grilled marinated steak, crisp vegetables, fresh herbs, and lime dressing.
Worth the midday break.
Three-Course Dinner | $39
Dinner is where the kitchen stretches out.
It opens with stuffed dates: chicken, chorizo, cheese and peppadew relish. From there, guests have threemains to choose from. The Sakura Farms peppercorn-crusted pork chop arrives with jicama, baked brie, grilled summer peaches, arugula, and cherry gelée. Chilean sea bass is plated with blistered tomatoes, smashed fingerling potatoes, herb salad, and tomato jus. The vegetarian pappardelle rounds it out with parmesan cream, garlic, lemon, and crushed hazelnuts.
Dinner closes with an apple “doughnut:” macerated apples, charred Granny Smith apples, blueberry-red wine syrup, and whipped goat cheese.
When food influencers called winter’s three-course dinner at $39 a genuinely surprising value, they weren’t exaggerating. This season’s menu is built to the same standard.
