Had a family event dinner here when we were all visiting from out of town & staying at my sister's Minneapolis home. The meal exceeded our every expectation. Everything - salads, entrees, dessert - was wonderful. I like how you can get a steak & seafood combo w/ a smaller size of each. The filet mignon was sensational, to die for - awesome cut and cooked perfectly. Everyone in our party raved about the food constantly, especially those who ordered steak. The walleye, a specialty of theirs, was great, but if we ever come back to town and eat here again, I'd try a different seafood w/ the steak, it didn't make me a lifelong fan (but I'd get the filet mignon again definitely!) Nice selection of tasty sides. The desserts, presented beautifully, were delicious; my husband and I split the decadent and scrumptious mud pie of chocolate and coffee ice cream on an Oreo crust, worth every calorie. Service was amazing and friendly. Ambiance cozy and warm. I like how you can go casual or dress up and still feel comfortable here. I could see this place being great for both a romantic dinner for 2 or a family dinner (we went w/ 3 kids in our party & they enjoyed everything too). Unfortunately, we went in the evening and couldn't take in the lake view, c'est la vie. Overall, an excellent, memorable and yummy dining experience!
Pros: FOODFOODFOOD, especially the steak & desserts, ambiance, service
Cons: I can't believe I'm the 1st reviewer to rave about the food here, maybe the locals think of this as more of a bar?!
