The food was cooked perfectly. The service was 10/10 where our server checked on us periodically. Located at the Cragun's Resort, we thought the food and pricing would be mediocre, overpriced tourist restaurant, but no! The food was delicious that we let each other try our dish. I had the medium-rare sirloin. It sirloin was tender. The fingerling mashed potatoes was flavorful and the vegetables were steamed well with a hint of buttery taste. The walleye was coated well. The fish was also tender and flaky. The vegetables were also steamed well. The wild rice was OK to me, but my husband thought it was amazing. My Nana had the chef's special: taste of Tbilisi. I really like the chicken skewers. She loves the eggplant and bell pepper ragout. My Poppop also had sirloin, but we also shared the focaccia bread. I really like the buttered dried tomato mix. It was different than your usual bread and butter. After dinner, we learned there was a dessert menu when the manager checked in on us. She said, "make sure you save room for dessert." There was not a physical dessert menu, but our server had the list on her checkbook. My husband and I shared the peaches creme brûlée. Again, everything was cooked perfectly. The atmosphere was cozy and intimate. There was outdoor seating available, but due to the scattered rain, we opt to stay indoors. There was a mix of customers sitting in and outdoors. It is above the outdoor swimming pool, but we were able to eat in peace. Very well decorated too. We did recommend this place to another family for their date night. It is that good! Also by the looks of the reviews and food pictures, it looks like the menu change - be sure to check out their website for the latest menu.

I ordered another meal to go and was charged for the to go box. What!? I called and tried to chat with the manager and almost right away she had attitude and I was told I didn't have to come back. I ordered two full meals. One to eat there and one to go. I needed a box for my leftovers, so two to go boxes. My to go meal didn't cost them a dirty plate or utensils. This is not the first time I have had bad experiences with servers at this bar. The food is great and the drinks are pretty good but this one person is horrible.

The room was very nice but not very sound proof in the hotel portion as we could hear the guests next door at 1 am partying and vomiting for two hours. The room is very spacious and had a little kitchenette and jacuzzi tub plus deck overlooking the lake which was amazing and made up for the thin walls. The outdoor pool and hot tub are open in the winter and pool is of course heated. The sauna is huge and well maintained.

The view is gorgeous and the resort buildings are nicely renovated. The service was attentive. The food was fine - some things better than others.

Go for the ambiance, go somewhere else for the food.

Regional airports normally are not on my radar when it comes to looking for a breakfast joint but…read moremy mom and dad took us here after hearing good things about it. The cafe is a laid back, little place tucked into one of the airport's wings. The room has large floor to ceiling windows which means lots of natural light and the chance to watch airplanes come and go while enjoying your dining experience. Service was super friendly and on top of things. The kids really enjoyed watching the hustle and bustle of the planes which allowed for the adults to enjoy our food and conversations. Foodwise, the breakfast menu is pretty solid. Good Americana diner fare. The menu highlighted some tried and true Minnesota classics like wild rice porridge (manoomin), walleye, and blueberry pancakes. The pancakes are thick and soak up syrup like a sponge while the omelettes and breakfast platters come with golden crisp hashbrowns cooked to perfection. Best bang for your buck would be the large caramel or cinnamon rolls. Huge roll for only $3.95. Not a bad place with good service and a unique setting. Also tried and true to its central Minnesota roots so a great place for tourists to stop to sample some iconic Minnesota dishes.

Karen Sposato, owner, and Eduardo Nogal, Director of Operations were both in attendance. Neither the food nor the wine disappointed! Chef Justin made an insanely delicious five course meal that hit every taste bud in all the right ways and the wine paired so perfectly with each course. I would say that the scallops were probably the best I've ever tasted and the short rib skewers were incredible, melt in your mouth. Lastly the dessert which the chef called milk cake was like a cross between Tres Leches and tiramisu. The cake layers soaked up the milky caramel sauce and it was sublime. As for the wines, the Chardonnay was my favorite of the whites, light on the palette and a bit of citrus and just a hint of oak. The Cabernet Franc was a knock it out of the park red. It had fruity flavors to begin and then turned dark and spicy with rich peppery flavors. We can't wait for the next wine dinner with the crew at Cru! Also, can't wait for our wine to be delivered!
