I'll start off saying the service was fine. Everything else from there was mediocre at best. The best thing was the barbecue chicken mac and cheese which was on the kids menu. Went there with the family and I ordered the risotto which was extremely bland boring and a scallops lacked any sear, it was most likely frozen and microwaved or something because they were rubbery. The chicken sandwich was bland and boring as well even though the description was quite tantalizing. The buttered rum was fairly decent, the old fashioned and the blueberry gimlet came with what I would assume was ice from an ice maker and using tap water. Which is never going to produce the best drink. Overall a $37 risotto that had almost no flavor and frozen scallops I was not impressed whatsoever. It is Lutsen So I suppose I didn't expect culinary excellence but if you're going to put the stuff on the menu learn how to make it.
Picturesque location and a nicely designed and comfortable restaurant and bar. Salads were good, seafood bisque far too salty.
This is only one of a couple places to eat in this remote area. Make it a little later in the evening and this is the ONLY place to eat! The staff and food at this restaurant was very good. We both enjoyed our meals and the bartenders were really cool to talk with and made sure our glasses were always full.
Some of the best food I’ve had out to eat in a long time. Their buffalo and garlic Parmesan wings were perfect. Duck wild rice soup was also cozy and delicious on a fall day. In addition, I had the chicken balsamic burrata salad. It had a pesto vinaigrette and it was nice, light, and refreshing. You best believe I will come back here during my North Shore adventures again next summer!
1st night we ordered the portabella mushroom burger and spicy chicken sandwich we had amazing walleye cakes for an appetizer. They were so good we went back the next night and ordered 3 of them along with buffalo chicken wings which were delicious. Their house salad made with fresh and crispy lettuce was packed full of fresh vegetables from cucumbers, onions, tomatoes & shredded carrots. Their homemade ranch and blue cheese is tasty!
