I am always nervous about the quality eating at a chain steakhouse but we had THE BEST time and…read moremeal here! Beware that everything is à la carte so it can get pricey. The staff was soooo accommodating to our group. Our waitress took pictures for us outside and even gave bandaids to the bride to be. Everything about our meal was so smooth. The bread is phenomenal. The potatoes and mushroom risotto couldn't have been better. The steak was cooked to perfection. Only critique would be the Brussels sprouts. They weren't as crispy as I would've liked and the thick cheese on top didn't seem to fit the dish. We got a piece of chocolate cake for everyone to take a bite and OMG it's huge!!! But so so delicious. Such a nicely decorated space and had a great vibe for a nice meal. I would highly recommend trying this place!

Perfect small plates sharing experience for a night out with friends. The service was…read morefantastic--our server was knowledgeable about the menu and helpful with explaining portion sizes for sharing. This is an upscale tapas menu, expect small plates and a surprising mix of delightful, seasonal flavors. We enjoyed the trio of dips, our favorite was the muhammara--roasted pepper and walnut with citrus and pomegranate seeds. We added on an extra pita to soak up every bite. Next was the dolma, a delicious combo of flavors and twist on the traditional. The kale salad was perfectly dressed and grilled peach added just the right sweet contrast. The Lake Trout with couscous was outstanding but my favorite part of the plate was the chermoula--a tangy, herby olive oil concoction that I must replicate. The chef came by to talk to us and answer our questions. We each enjoyed a signature cocktail, I highly recommend the Limonada 75, an Italian take on the French 75 with limoncello. We wrapped up our experience sharing the Olive Oil Cake with a rhubarb compote and generous dollop of fresh whipped cream. We will absolutely be back, we have to try the halloumi, which was unavailable, and the pasta at the table next to us looked tasty. There was also plenty of variety for a vegetarian/pescatarian to choose from. Alto Pino is expensive, but worth it. A dinner shared between three people including sharing 4 small plates, dessert, drink, and 20%+ tip came out to about $70 each. You are also paying for the experience of tasting something new and unlike anything else offered in Duluth. Reservations were easy to make online, you should make yours today! PS I'd love to see their twist on traditional Spanish tapas like patatas bravas or pan con tomate on the menu!

It was closer to lunchtime so I got the wild rice meatloaf sandwich with the darkest of gravies. Garlic mashed which I was assured wasn't too garlicky. I appreciated that.

I brought home a loaf of cranberry wild rice bread, cause where else would I find it? Also a tiny bottle of maple syrup. The whole pies were eye catching. Can't wait to try breakfast there.

I.e. no attitudes. My wife ordered the pot roast. It was a plate full and tasted good. I ordered the backwoods Walleye. Which is a pan seared fillet of walleye with some broccoli and a sweet potato. Sweet potato was the best part of the meal! The fish represented as fantastic. It tasted incredibly fishing! Not typical Walleye. Had this been the first time I had ever eaten while I would probably never order it again anywhere. I did eat everything due to being hungry / hangry. I mentioned how fishy the fish was to both the waiter and the manager both apologized, but did not offer anything further. I've eaten at the Blackwoods and two harbors and had a fantastic meal, not so much. Once again, staff was great restaurant was clean food mediocre.
