    New Scenic Cafe - Lobster Roll

    I can't remember the last time I went to a restaurant and made so many (for lack of a better…read moreexpression) yummy noises. New Scenic Cafe was EXCEPTIONAL. The cafe is located alone the shore of Lake Superior. There is lots of parking onsite, so no worries there. The restaurant is as stunning as the view! It's, dare I say, very scenic! As for the food (I do dream of it!), I was obsessed with this dish that was essentially dates, cheese and honey -- insanely good. We also loved the seared duck with dumplings and "the bear" chocolate cake. The only thing we were a little underwhelmed with were the tuna tacos. They were good, but just couldn't compete with the other dishes, which were fantastic. Make sure to call to make a reservation ahead of time -- they are busy, busy!

    First off, the food was superb. Like, even the WATER was delicious! We had the lobster roll…read more(amazing-better than we had in Boston!), burger (really good), tuna sashimi tacos (delicious), and burrata (very good). Also, the ambiance was lovely. Everything was presented beautifully. The prices are quite high and the menu is very Scandinavian. If you're not a seafood fan, the choices are limited. The service was the biggest challenge. We had a reservation for 6 at 7:45. When we arrived, the host told us the party before us was still at the table an hour after getting their bill. We wound up waiting 25 minutes to be seated. No concessions were offered for the wait. We ordered drinks (a soda and a lemonade) and it took another 20 minutes to get them. When the drinks arrived at 8:35, we ordered. It took almost 40 minutes for the food to arrive. Again - we ordered four sandwiches and two appetizers. Because we were seated so late, the restaurant was clearing out - I can't imagine how long the wait is when it's busy. Our server was an infrequent guest at our party. I might come back just to have that lobster roll again, but nothing else was so outstanding that it would be worth the trip.

    A friend and I stopped by Larsmont Trading Post on a bit of a lark while we were there for an open…read moremic, and I'm honestly still thinking about the food. We played it "safe" and ordered the nachos--and I say this without exaggeration: they were the best nacho platter I've ever had. Not just great tasting, but genuinely beautiful to look at. This wasn't a pile-of-chips-with-stuff-dumped-on-top situation. This was thoughtfully made, layered, and clearly crafted from real ingredients. Nothing felt canned or boxed. Fresh toppings, balanced flavors, and even details like using spinach instead of iceberg lettuce showed real care and intention. You could tell someone in that kitchen actually cares about what goes out on the plate. If you're anywhere near the area and even thinking about stopping in--do it. Great food, great vibe, and one of those meals that surprises you in the best possible way. We'll absolutely be back.

I had a turkey sandwich and a cup of chili that were delicious. The soups are made from scratch and the portions are perfect for a lunch stop. They also have a little shop area where they sell souvenirs, clothes, and decor. We fed our family of 4 for under $65, which is pretty hard to do these days, especially in the Duluth area.

    Stopped mid afternoon for a late lunch on Lake Superior. This is a fairly popular resort with…read morethis stand alone restaurant/bar. 4 staff, 3 tables with 8 patrons and service was soooooo slow. Not sure why my cup of soup took 20 minutes to come, but when it did, it was the wrong soup. She left the wrong one at the table (smoky chicken wild rice) and said the kitchen was just heating up the corn chowder I ordered and it would be out on a minute. Three minutes later, the "corn chowder" was brought out. It was not hot and did not taste good. When the wait staff came out again, I asked her to take it because it wasn't good and her reply was "I'll see if the kitchen forgot something ". Wait....what?? I also ordered the forest mushroom flatbread. It looked pretty but this is a combination that should not exist. The flatbread was cut and then two fried eggs and arugula were place on top so you could not take a bite without losing the egg and salad. Also...when you say it is a "forest mushroom" flatbread, it should actually have wild mushrooms or just call it "Mushroom Flatbread ". On a positive note, the smoky chicken wild rice soup was delicious and the manager stopped by with her apology and a desert on the house. Hopefully I was just here on an off day

    We stopped here for lunch on our way to Lutsen. We had the place to ourselves on a Monday in April…read more Our food was excellent! I loved the Portabella burger and my kids thought the burgers and fries were great! It's a little spendy - burgers are $18. There is free parking outside and nice view of Lake Superior! It's worth a stop here on your way up north!

Please choose an establishment that doesn't respond to negative reviews in this way! ] My partner and I (locals) brought my in-laws from Texas here and had a bizarre experience. We wanted to show them our favorite Friday fish fry and unfortunately, one of the items (steak kebab) came out overdone. We politely let our waitress know and she brought out the owner, Fitz. Fitz asked MIL to cut the steak for him multiple times and argued that it was perfect since his wife cuts the meat every morning. Frustrated with how MIL was being treated, my partner asked Fitz to get her fish instead and be done with it. After a bit of back and forth and raised voices on both sides, my partner apologized and began explaining his protectiveness by telling him that MIL is currently going through chemotherapy. Instead of de-escalating the situation, Fitz leaned over the table and sneered, "I'm sorry you have cancer, I had cancer too!" at MIL. After that comment, my partner got up and left. Fitz followed him outside and from my view, jumped into a fighting stance and raised his fists at my partner. We walked away after that. Such a disappointing and most importantly, embarassing experience to have with visitors. Just stick to Whistling Bird if you're in town.
