Stopped for lunch today as we were driving thru Brainard and I'm soooo sad I'm not staying near there for the weekend. My husband and I both got sandwiches and soup and it was the best food I've had out in a long time. The salad was so fresh and had depth and flavor. The soup was a seafood strew and my husband and I spent the rest of the ride trying to break down the ingredients so we could make it at home. I need to find an excuse to go back to Brainard. Soooo good. I look forward to trying everything on the menu. Highly recommend the duck confit sandwhich and the profiteroles for dessert.

We were excited to go here as we were married in a train station, naturally we found the song beautiful! The drinks were denials and the service was excellent, I ordered something other than I wanted and they happily replaced my mistake! We live how away and are already planning a return trip!

Went with a friend recently and was very impressed with the food and service. The lobster bisque was amazing! We both enjoyed the daily special and look forward to making a return visit! Keep up the good work!

I took my very pregnant daughter there for dinner as part of our date night and was so unbelievably disappointed with the food and service. I live in the Brainerd and was excited to bring my daughter to try something new. I was hoping the location and atmosphere would provide a unique experience. The menu is very limited, however, she decided to give one of the melts a chance. We all know melts come smothered in onions, she however doesn't care for them and baby doesn't seem to either so it was requested that these be left off. The gal that brought us out our dinner was not our waitress and appeared to be of management position. When she dropped the food I politely told her we asked for no onions. Before taking the melt back, she just stood there looking at us. She looked at us with this look that told me she was irritated. Fast forward 5 minutes and a new plate is presented to us, the cheese is far from melted and the burger this time is so rare, it is bleeding onto the plate and soaking the bread red. It is so raw that it is completely uneditable and this was expected to be eaten by my 36-week pregnant daughter. At this point we were done. I asked for my sandwich to go and requested her food be removed from my bill. At the end of our time there, I still paid $24 for a sandwich far from worth it and service that was far from impressive. I will not be returning and I will not be recommending this place to anyone.
The only reason I gave 3 stars for service was because my original waitress was very sweet and I know she tried her best. Whoever the lead or management was last night October 27th needs to be talked to about her customer service skills and how she should treat and handle customers. For her to have looked at that food and actually brought it out to us is ridiculous. You need to get your cook staff better prepared if they are going to be expected to cook food that costs between $17 and $19 for a burger with chips.

We went out for our anniversary and wished we wouldn’t have tried a new place. The short rib was tough and didn’t have good flavor, the corn chowder lacked flavor, and the risotto wasn’t creamy. We did go to a wedding this summer at the NP event center and the food was amazing, so we expected just as good or better of results when cooking for 2 rather than 300. Hope you are able to find consistently good results. It is hard to have consistent customers when you don’t.

This used to be our favorite place to eat but since they've changed the whole menu and atmosphere we've quit going there.
Wheelchair accessibility: Excellent parking parking and and wonderful wheelchair accessibility. Their burgers are as good as any I have ever eaten Unfortunately, the evening was spoiled Because we waited more than a 1/2 hour after we were done eating to get our check.

We showed up at 7:10 pm. Waited at the host stand for 5 minutes. Finally a host came over and told us they close at 8pm and aren’t taking anymore people because they are too busy. There were plenty of tables open. We just wanted to sit at the bar and have a beer and share an appetizer. Guess my business wasn’t good enough for them.
