    Red Pine Cookhouse - Extra veggies for the Beef and Potatoes

    Red Pine Cookhouse is getting all the buzz north of MN 210, and for good reason! The proprietors…read moreare serving up authentic modern Vietnamese and Thai dishes, alongside standard up north favorites like burgers and fish and chips. Two of us had the Pad Thai, one had steak and potatoes, and the other Szechuan tofu. The Pad Thai stands up to any version I've had anywhere, a strong and solid offering with the tanginess of tamarind balanced with fresh chopped cilantro. The traditional beef and potatoes dish can be hit and miss, but this one balanced potatoes with crispy edges and pillowy starchiness with quality strips of steak, all stir fried together in just enough brown sauce to bring it together. The tofu and snap peas in a spicy Szechuan sauce were flavorful and hearty enough after appetizers. We didn't get pictures of the egg rolls, which are as good as you'll find in these parts and the spring rolls, which were slightly less authentic than we'd hoped. We finished off with lemon bar ice cream, Vietnamese flan, and a toffee Bundt cake. Red Pine Cookhouse is a visually impressive log building with plenty of natural light flowing in through the many windows and a curved staircase leading up to a game room for the kids. We enjoyed the evening on the patio. We were thrilled to have been introduced to this gem of a restaurant, and look forward to our next trip back!

    Starting with the Good News, the Cream Cheese WonTons and Chicken Tenders very good. The bad news,…read morewe've patroned since the opening of the restaurant and reduced the rating of most of the entrees from a "9" to now a "4.5 to 5". The Pineapple, Pea Pods, Steak, Chicken, Sauce, Ingredients and Size of entree have all been removed and/or reduced. No need for take home containers any longer. You should get a plate full of food as we were served in the past. Service is still Great, ambiance Great, drinks Good. It's too bad this is no longer a first thought for a Great Dinner.

    Yum yum yum! Always…read morelove stopping at a Zorbaz when at the cabin, the cross lake version is my FAVORITE! With a variety of seating options, games, food, and drinks, Zorbaz always delivers. I love how there's even a variety of vegetarian and gluten free options. Prices are soooo good, most meals under $10! I tried the Zorbaz Drekker sour and it was SO good! But they have like 20+ different taps, so a variety of options to try! Love the self-service and always a friendly staff! Would recommend to anyone who needs to get a true minnesotan feel of a resturant!

    A little known fact about me is that I lived in the Land of 10,000 Lakes for some of my adult life…read more Northern Minnesota to be exact. It didn't take long for me to crave some of the flavors of Tex Mex that was so abundant back in Texas where I lived. My friends suggested I give Zorbaz a chance and it is still a place I like to visit when I go back. What they are known for here is Mexican food and pizza. Weird combo, but it hits the spot. You can get the best of both worlds if you order the Mexican pizza which is basically a taco salad on a pizza. It is one of my go to items here. They do put alot of focus on the Mexican food side of the menu with items you would expect like quesadillas, burritos, tacos, etc. Is it authentic or close to what I get back home? Nah. It's still tasty food and gets the job done. They also have a very impressive tap beer selection with beers from all over. When in MN, I will always go with a Michelob Golden though! They have locations throughout MN but I've only been to the location on Cross Lake. I'll continue coming back if in the area.
