Alex and Alexis are so attentive. They really helped me pick something fresh and light from the menu.

Been coming here for years, and the Hunter&#39;s Chop is why. That rich flavor is exactly the same every time. It&#39;s the one thing I know I can count on.

The service was so attentive. I really appreciated how they took the time to explain the sourcing of the vegetables in my salad. Everything tasted incredibly fresh.

Aaron was a solid server. I got the cheese ravioli, it was fine. But I tried a bite of my husband&#39;s lasagna and man, that was the move. Should&#39;ve gone with that. The big parking lot out back is super convenient.

The honey cream cake was nice, but the portion was pretty small for the price.

The hot and tangy shrimp were a great start, really juicy. But the cherry cheesecake... that was the star. So creamy and light, not too sweet. Just the right note to end on.

Crab cakes were rich. Flavorful. Shared a few dishes with friends. That&rsquo;s the move here. Lets you try more of the menu. Good spot for sharing plates.

Been coming here for years, and that deck is still the main draw. Just a great spot to unwind with a drink and watch the boats. The view of the bridge never gets old.

Love the happy hour here! The pizza is always spot-on, and the vibe is just right for a chill evening. It&#39;s become my go-to spot in the neighborhood.

Our server was super nice and gave us some solid tips on what to order. She checked in just the right amount, never felt rushed. Made the whole dinner chill.

Nice spot for a family dinner. The vibe is lively but not too loud. Parking was easy and free, which is a plus. Food was decent, though the pasta could have been a bit warmer.

First time here. The French toast was spot on - crispy outside, soft inside, not too sweet. Our waiter was just really attentive without being overbearing. That kind of service is nice.

The breakfast burger special was pretty good. Our server suggested it, and she was attentive with our drinks. The burger itself was decent, though the bun got a bit soggy by the end. A solid choice for a casual brunch.

The server had awesome suggestions and was super helpful with my gluten-free request. Food came out fast too!

First time here and I&#39;m glad I tried the crab dip. So creamy and warm, perfect with the chips. The menu has way more than just burgers.

Great spot for a quick bite. Got the burger and fries. Food came out fast, which is what I needed. The place itself has a cool vibe with brick walls and nice lighting. Maybe a bit loud, but good for a fast lunch.

Saturday night was packed and loud, but the staff stayed chill even when slammed. Drinks are priced okay. Got there after 10 and had to wait a bit, which was expected.

Came back after so many years. The dunkel beer and Bavarian pretzels were just as good as I remembered. What really stood out was the walleye fingers &ndash; the fish tasted incredibly fresh, not greasy at all. A solid choice.

The seared scallops were a highlight. They paired beautifully with a crisp white wine from the list. A bit pricey for the portion, but the flavors were spot-on.

Been coming here for years, and the service is always consistent. The staff remembers my usual order, and they&#39;re just genuinely nice people. It&#39;s that kind of reliable, friendly vibe that keeps me coming back.

Stopped in after a lakeside walk in Excelsior. The ingredients are just so fresh&mdash;you can really taste it in the simple grilled fish. That was the highlight for me.

The staff was friendly and knew the menu well. They gave good suggestions on what to pair with our wine. Service was prompt, no long waits between courses. A solid, efficient experience.

Krista and Patrick were on point tonight. They remembered my name, checked in just enough. Felt like a regular even though it was my first time.

Stopped by for a late brunch and got the build-your-own burger. Added a fried egg on top, which was a solid move. Patty was cooked just right. Pretty chill spot to hang for a bit.

The ice cream is really good, but it&#39;s a bit pricey. A single scoop is like $6.50. The sundaes are worth the wait, though.

I was really impressed with the chicken tenders here. They had a nice kick to them, and the portion on my salad was very generous. The booth seating was also quite comfortable, which made for a relaxed meal.

The omakase at the chef&#39;s counter was great. Really enjoyed watching them work&mdash;you could tell they put a lot of care into each piece.
