    Walleye cakes
    Markus G.

    My wife, some friends, and I made a trip up to the Duluth area to enjoy a few activities, and after a long day we were ready to grab something to eat. We came across Silos and figured it looked like a great spot to try. Parking wasn't terrible, but since the lot is shared by several nearby businesses, it was tough to find a good spot on a weekend. Once we parked and walked in, we were seated fairly quickly, which was a plus. That said, it did take a while before our server even acknowledged us. By the time he came over, we had been sitting for quite a bit, so we went ahead and ordered everything right away. My wife and I ordered the walleye cakes and a few drinks. When the drinks came out, my wife's Diet Pepsi was missing, so I had to ask our server to get it. For dinner, I ordered the Norwegian salmon with lemon pepper green beans and garlic mashed potatoes which was a wonderful combination. My wife had the seafood pasta, but it wasn't quite what the menu described. Not sure if there was a new chef or if something changed in the kitchen. Overall, it wasn't a bad first visit. There were some bumps, but the location is great--right off Lake Superior with outdoor seating and a beautiful view. The atmosphere is peaceful and relaxing, the menu has solid options, and when the food is prepared right, it's full of flavor. The drinks were also really good, even the virgin margarita was a smash hit. A few things could definitely be improved: service felt slow even though it wasn't very busy, and there wasn't any welcome or smiles when we arrived, just kind of routine. Parking can be tough, and if you have mobility issues, even the short walk from out front could be a bit much. That said, we're open to giving it another try. There are other items on the menu we're curious to try, and we visit Duluth at least once or twice a year so hopefully next time, the service will step up and this place can become one of our go-to spots.

    In agreement with the overall scoring 2.9 stars for this place. Went with a party of 6, so we tried a variety of dishes. Good thing we had great company because the service was slow for a pretty empty morning. Positives: music and ambiance created relaxes vibes, flavorful breakfast potatoes, SPAM cooked well for the Monte Cristo Negatives: poached eggs came hard-boiled, brussel sprouts in omelet were too thick/undercooked, small omelet (not 2 eggs) for the pricing, carrots undercooked, many dishes came out ~slightly~ warm Would maybe come back for a different meal time... for sure leaving this place behind when it comes to breakfast.

    Super unfortunate that the Benedict came hardboiled. At the end they offered to remake the eggs but only after 15 minutes into my meal...also asked a server for hot sauce and never got it. They did discount the meal I'll try again in 6 months to see if they have gotten better

    The fried chicken sandwich was good. A little salty and a little sweet. The fries are good. The wait staff is on top of it. (My water was refilled without me even noticing it.) Atmosphere is nice. The prices are a little spendy. I thought the menu was a little too limited.

    We were in town for some R&R and my husband booked us a room at Pier B. After a day of sightseeing in the snow we went into Silos for drinks and dinner. Best choice ever! Out bartenders Tony and April were awesome! We felt very welcomed and were given wonderful service. Really impressed with them. The food was also super tasty. Wish we were staying longer to try more dishes! Thank you!!!

    Went to dinner after walking through Bentleyville which is conveniently right next to the restaurant! The food was very tasty. A lot of side options. Ample parking as it is located in the Pier B hotel. The walleye was our favorite dish. The seafood pasta was spicy, so watch out! Our server was very sweet and attentive.

    HUGE carrot cake dessert.  Bring a couple of friends and extra forks.

    The restaurant is located inside the Silos "Resort" (P.S. This is a hotel, not a resort in the true sense. It takes much more than 2 pickleball courts to correctly be called a "resort."). That aside, the restaurant offers pleasant views and its contemporary design is well done and includes a combination of table and booth-style seating and a few TV's. My Silos Signature Burger (a double stack w/ onion jam, cheese and more) was nicely presented (see photo) and arrived in good time along with fries (fries were tasty but were barely warm). The burger was well done and I was never asked my temperature preference which I viewed as a significant oversight. My friend's Impossible Burger and side salad was "fine" as well...(see photo). While disappearing for about 20 minutes, server (Ilea) did a nice job upselling us to a dessert (a HUGE serving of carrot cake). Prices are fair for a hotel location (even in Duluth where hotel rates are generally viewed as "gouging") but the 3% addition to the bill for " team service" should appear on the menu. This addition may be helpful to the business by generating payroll dollars however it adds confusion to the experience of many diners. Three adjacent and confused diners reduced their servers gratuity by a good amount in order to make up for the 3% plus apparently applicable taxes. Lots of confusion out there and perceived attempts to hide "automatic add-ons" are not helpful. Service needs to be far better and consistent when patrons are charged an automatic gratuity regardless of the experience.

    Are the burgers served on Thomasville English Myffins? Presentation looks unappetizing.

    The burgers are served on English muffins. It seemed to be a home made or local bakery version of English muffin. Very tasty. The ratio of meat to bread was good :).

The restaurant overlooks the lake, making for such a beautiful and relaxing setting. The ambiance is absolutely charming, and I loved the serveware, it gave the whole meal a lovely high tea feel. The food was on the pricey side, but every single thing we ordered was absolutely delicious. They also had a display of freshly baked goods at the front, so we picked up a few treats to take on the road. Those were just as amazing as our meal! The staff was incredibly welcoming and sweet, and I loved all the thoughtful little touches throughout the restaurant. One of my favorites was the guestbook they invite visitors to sign before leaving. It's details like that that make a place feel extra special. I would absolutely recommend stopping here if you're driving the North Shore. Beautiful views, delicious food, and such a warm, memorable experience.

Fresh tuna, creamy avocado on the inside with a crispy wonton shell. Nice citrus ponzu sauce but the real star was the Japanese inspired coleslaw. Curry mussels. Just a big bowl of deliciousness. Delicious tender mussels with a cravable curry sauce. Fresh bread on the side to soak up all the liquid gold in the bowl. Enjoy. Lobster roll. Freshly prepared lobster served cold in a buttery toasty bun. It was as good as it looked. Homemade chips on the side added the needed texture and crunch to the dish. Grilled artichoke toast. This was the surprise of the meal. It was an artichoke lovers dream. I would drive 2.5 hours for this dish without hesitation. It was that good.

The beer selection was a little smaller than we expected, but there was still a nice variety of styles, so everyone in our group found something they enjoyed. They also have a full bar with specialty cocktails. The food menu was surprisingly large with lots of unique and fun options to try. The only small downside was that the Brussels sprouts were still a little undercooked for our taste, but everything else was excellent and more than made up for it. Excellent brisket, fish n chips, and build your own burger! The garlic aioli and IPA mustard sauces were definitely memorable. Overall, it's a great spot for good food, craft beer, and a fun atmosphere located right on the pier. We'd definitely come back!

We got on the waiting list and were told it'd be about a 30 minute wait. By golly, we know from the time stamps on the texts that it was 32 minutes total. We were seated outside, and service was fast and smooth from that point. We had the pretzel sticks appetizer, which was fantastic. Very soft, hot pretzels, and the queso was thick and loaded with flavor. My husband had the Canal Park red lager and really enjoyed it. My main dish was the birria tacos, which were quite good but could have used more cheese. Salsa and chips were fine, too. My husband had jalapeño popper burger with fries, and really liked it. Checkout was fast and pleasant.

We went to the Lake Ave. location in Canal Park since it was walking distance. Walking into the establishment you are greeted with the aromas breakfasts being made and a hostess who was friendly. We opted to eat outside under the covered patio to enjoy the day. The menu has plenty of options to suit one's fancy - pancakes, waffles, pecan/cinnamon rolls for those with a sweet-tooth, and of course any number of savory plates for the rest of us. Making an eating decision can prove difficult. the Huevos Rancheros looked appealing as did the breakfast sandwich, and the brisket eggs Benedict. I opted for what was behind door number four and picked the country fried steak and eggs. Much to my delight, instead of the usually Sysco food distributor breaded chopped steak topped with a gravy from an institutional food can - They actually used a rib-eye for the steak, and homemade gravy. I also had the option of toast or a pancake. I always love me some decent rye toast, but today was a day to mix it up, and the pancake was nice, and not too big. I also liked that there was an option for blueberry syrup, or Maple syrup. The other item ordered was the Greek Omelet, my wife truly enjoyed it, and they also cooked her hash-browns to order which she appreciated (she likes them really, really crispy). I this will definitely be a must have place to eat every time we are in Duluth. I highly recommend this place.

I think the boozy brunch crowd comes in late morning. We were seated quickly and ordered breakfast. We got the usual pancakes, French toast, etc. Everything was good. Best ever? No, but pretty solid and the portions were generous. The kids ate it, which is most important. The service was good, too. It was a bit hectic for the staff because they sat like 8 parties of 4 all at once - all with kids, so it was a lot for them to manage, but they pulled through and we were well taken care of. I heard it gets packed by mid-late morning, so if you can, get there early!
