Simple menu with standard breakfast items plus a couple neat specials. Today they had apple bread French toast and triple berry cheescake waffles. I had the "Loaded Scrambled Eggs" with a side of hash browns. I chose sausage, jalepeno, and onions in the eggs with pepper jack cheese. Cam with two huge slices of sourdough. It was perfect. Not much else to say. The hash browns were done exactly they way inoooe them. Nice and crispy without being burnt. And our food arrived about five minutes after we ordered. If you're driving through, stop. For sure.

My veggie wrap was really, really good (and I'm not really a veggie guy). I liked the free re-fill on most drinks. The sweet potato fries were top-notch. I also had a cup of their red lentil soup-of-the-day, which, again, was fantastic. Our waitress was attentive and patient. What a great experience.

I have no idea how to get them national recognition so one of those roaming restaurant reviewers checks them out, but they should. SO GOOD. The fries are the best, too!

The atmosphere is very 'northern MN', fireplace, stone, log cabin walls,... very cozy. I chose the soup and salad lunch special. Soup was chicken and dumpling. It was robust and service nice and hot with oyster crackers. Bit salty though. The garden salad was good with fresh tomatoes and cucumbers (onions as well but a bit too many of those). Croutons were soft and would be much better if they were crispy. There were lots of sandwich choices and husband had the Club which was good and served with kettle chips. Nice lunch. Service was excellent. Beautiful views of the course from the clubhouse.

Our server ended up being great and very attentive to us throughout the night. Our drinks never went empty and he had great knowledge of the menu.

Our last transactions were horrifying! we called 40 mins ahead of time, arrived at the time food was supposed to be ready and i sent my husband in.( i had the kids in the car) 20 mins later my husband emerges, clearly annoyed since the food still isnt done. At this point the children are hungry, crying, and im done waiting. We ask for a refund and the owner refuses! ( states we can wait!) we are beyond pissed we receive our food 30 mins after we arrived, 1 hour and 15 mins after we called it in and were refused a refund. To follow all this mess up, the owner proceeds to come out to our vehicle which im sitting in with the kids, swearing and calling us mother****! Im so disappointed with these owners. I cannot believe the owners find it acceptable to literally run up to a car full of children and swear like that! Not a friendly, family or even a restaurant i would ever bring my kids to again. We will be driving to the Viking or wooden table 20 mins away before we ever give them our money again. What a shame! The old junction was so good!
