The Story
9/22/2021 – Devil’s Advocate, downtown’s cozy destination for pizzas, pastas, and plenty of beers, will expand its Twin Cities reach with a new location in idyllic Stillwater. Its first foray outside of the city is scheduled to debut in mid-October at 14200 60th Street N. in a renovated space that formerly housed Famous Dave’s and the Eagles Club 94. The new 5,500-square-foot locale will import of the greatest hits the decade-old brand is known for, including its arugula pasta pappardelle with homemade Italian sausage, Minnesota grain bowl, and margherita pizza. Its downtown digs, which relocated to 1070 Nicollet Mall a few years ago into a sophisticated space outfitted with a pretty fireplace and antler art, has remained temporarily closed since the dawn of the pandemic and is currently being used to host private events. Its 125-seat sophomore location, around the same size inside as the original, will grow outdoors next spring with the addition of multiple patio areas.
