Recently we were featured in The Adventurist Magazine. Their goal is to create guides around the world to help people experience the soul of a city in a unique way. In their guide, “12 Michelin-Worthy Restaurants in North and South Dakota” they said this about Anima Cucina…
“…starting the day as a polished cafe and ending it as a pasta-and-wine bar with fresh pasta, charcuterie, rotisserie and enough wine-by-the-glass energy to make Bismarck feel that much more Italian.”

“Kenny Howard and Heath Stocks earned James beard attention here, which I’m glad to see, because the place proves good ingredients and a skilled kitchen can work wonders.”
Being named “Michelin Star Worthy” is a major honor! This title is culinary excellence. It takes into account quality ingredients, techniques used, presentation, harmony of flavors and consistency across multiple dining experiences.
We are always striving for culinary excellence at Anima Cucina for our locals to Bismarck and those traveling through to experience world-class food in North Dakota.
Thank you for the feature, The Adventurist Magazine! We can’t wait to support and experience the other restaurants you highlighted.
