Everything about our meal was perfect!…read more Background: we've been to almost every restaurant within 30 miles of Crosslake, most many times. We somehow missed this place. We would rank this meal as one of our best in the area. I had the crab cake sandwich, upgraded to include the dinner salad. The sandwich is one of the best things I've ever eaten. And, am pretty sure the amazing blu cheese dressing was house made. I tasted my husband's food, and can confirm... his cheeseburger upgraded to have the Cesar salad and the shrimp bisque was FANTASTIC!!! Will definitely be back!

So many things to tell you(long post), I was searching the area near our summer rental for a good…read morespot for my birthday dinner. As I read the menu for this restaurant, I was getting that excited feeling that I stumbled upon a place where they really know good food. The Italian nachos looked promising as well as the reuben egg rolls. Sandwiches, wraps, burgers, oooh! What's this is see? Omaha Hereford ribeye? IMHO black angus is highly overrated. I love a good heffer! So we seat ourselves, the place is popping busy, they're having an all you can eat crab leg special this Friday night. We start ordering off the menu. Beverages to start, nothing fancy, just a good local craft beer and a summer mocktail. Appetizers, my birthday, I get to choose. I decided on the reuben egg rolls. For the main course, my bride orders the sirloin and I order the ribeye, we both get salad. The egg rolls arrive first, looking very homemade. OMFG, they are soooo good. Watch out for the juicy squirt (fresh sauerkraut). Ok, house salad - you'd think nothing special needs to be said about a house salad, we'll let me tell you, house made croutons, house made dressings. It's these small little touches that make a big difference. The steaks were fantastic, the sides perfectly done. The service- on point. The only drawback was the little black flies bugging my legs throughout our visit. But hey, it's northern Minnesota, it comes with the territory and can be easily fixed with a couple of Vector or Lavex bug catchers. Overall, I shall finish pontificating. My suffencies have been sorrencified!

With wonderful bartenders, an occasional pig roast, and off-sale liquor available on site, one would be hard pressed to present a better alternative for Crosby night life.

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.

Three dining areas and each was setup such that table conversation was easy and clear. The two story, clean, appropriately lit spaces in this log building invite you to relax and enjoy yourself. Drink & food orders easy and menu explanations were concise and descriptive. Entrees of sesame chicken and sweet & sour chicken, with egg rolls, wontons and the out of this world bacon fried rice. While we were skeptical about the rice our server assured us it was delicious and she was absolutely correct! Portions were generous, egg rolls were the best we've had anywhere in America. The batter was light, crunchy and nary a trace of oil, cooked to perfection. Wontons were killer and all the sauces were spot on and truly complimented each dish. We had leftovers and added a takeout order (generous) of the bacon fried rice. And all the food was as good the next day. Our dessert was a vanilla flan that honestly was the first time either of us had one. And we were floored at how good it was and laughed as we took a photo of the empty plate, but included the first picture I forgot I had taken. Delicious, light and smooth, it's another new favorite. The Chef and staff have created a menu that's rare in our area in a friendly atmosphere, in a warm, inviting rustic setting. We're looking forward to many more trips and exploring the rest of this Chef's menu.

We ordered a couple pizzas which took a good bit of time to come out and little taste in the crust (plus they were thin and heavily cooked so it was more of a cracker). The drink options are not listen anywhere so they just have your standard options. Venue was very loud and even though we were inside, our table was bothered by several flies. Plus the "plates" we got were tiny styrofoam and only worked okay because the pizza slices were so small. On the bright side however, the prices were not that high at least averaging around $10-12 per person and soda at $3

They've got a small harbor to dock your boat and walk right up to the restaurant if you come by sea. Otherwise, it's easy to access from the local highways around. The atmosphere during the summer months is always buzzing and happy. Plenty of people coming to relax from a long drive north or from a warm day on the lake. It's a great spot for local musicians that play to entertain the seasonal visitors and the regulars from town alike. Tonight was a typical busy summer night. The outdoor seating is first come, first served, so we waited around to grab a table in the sunshine. Our waitress was great and, as busy as she was, was really attentive to us. We never spent too much time without something to drink. She also took our order quickly and the food came out in a really reasonable time for it being packed. The food was delicious! We had a variety of dishes at our table, from a stir fry to pizza to a gluten free "wrap" platter. I had a Bilski Burger covered with cheese, bacon, and "Gold sauce". A side of tots to complement it. The burger was cooked wonderfully and tasted fantastic. Everyone had great food and we all pretty much finished it all up. I'll continue to come back to Moonlite Bay. It's a great place and I've not been disappointed yet (over 7 years coming up here). If you're in the area, stop in and enjoy the atmosphere and food!
