20 Best American Restaurants near Breezy Point

“Food was great. Atmosphere for an anniversary dinner could have been better. Server could have been more attentive. It always seemed to be a burden or chore to come to our table to get our order or answer a question. Server took forever to refill my beverages. They literally had to be put on the edge of the table for her to acknowledge and refill. When it came time to pay the bill, we were given our check in a timely manner however, it took another 17 minutes for her to come collect payment. “

“My mom and I enjoy visiting the A-Pine whenever we're in the area. Excellent food and great staff!“

“Fun and relaxed place for a meal. Food was great!“

“Great Valentines Dinner, 💕😍“

“Amazing and comfortable atmosphere. Very relaxing with a beautiful view. Service was top notch and I had the best steak literally I have ever had (and I’m quite the steak snob)! My husband had pasta and it was delicious! I thought he was going to lick the plate! And if you leave with out trying the homemade icecream………“

“Excellent service, great selections, delicious food, and gorgeous wooded setting. My sunfish appetizers were fantastic!“

“First time dining with guests and was extremely pleased. Pamela our waitress was fantastic! The atmosphere, views and food was wonderful. Besides everyone enjoying their meals, prentation on our shrimp dinners, walleye and fettuccine could have been on a magazine cover. Nice to see everyone pitching in to help one another (impressive). We will be back, thank you for making special.“

“Great eggs Benedict ( and I’ve worked for years in the restaurant industry). My favorite breakfast place in the Brainerd Lakes area. Plus, they are family owned and run. Love it!“

“**Restaurant Review**

I tried the Thai Power Bowl, which was quite good and the only vegan option available on the menu. It would be beneficial if the restaurant could add a few more vegan-friendly options and/or include allergen labels on the menu, as there are currently none.

That said, I’m glad to see at least one restaurant on the Whitefish chain that offers a suitable option for me. Our waitress was pleasant and went the extra mile by double-checking allergen information with the kitchen, which my group appreciated.

The patio was comfortable and clean. I also appreciate that they allow dogs on the patio. Thank you!“

“Great food and service! We had the shrimp tacos and a Reuben. Both were excellent. Very good tap list and drinks as well.“

“We were so happy to find this new restaurant. The food was amazing ( especially the butternut squash). There are unique menu options and the service was fabulous. I highly recommend this restaurant and, next time we are in the Brainerd area we will be going there again !“

“Was looking for a quick place to catch a beer and some "bar food' after a day on the lake, so we stopped in. Turns out we were wrong, this place served cold beer from a long menu, had the most courteous staff (were more than happy to deal with food allergies, with a smile) and then served us food that should have been in a top tier restaurant. To say the least we were more than happy and will always come back when in the area.“

“Awesome place to get some food or just grab a drink with friends after a long day at work. The food is excellent and to staff are always amazing. Some renovations done recently which definitely add to the environment and more in the works eventually.“

“I have to say all the waitresses that were on staff today 8/2/24 from 4-6 while we were there were amazing. This was the first time we have had and seen great service staff here. I hope they can keep this group of staff!!“

“I really enjoyed the decor and the excellent service at the restaurant. The drinks and food were fantastic. My husband ordered the "My Ty" and I tried the "NY Sour" - both were delicious. We also shared the Gyro Bites, which were very good.“

“Best service … lots of fun items to look at.. always bring some fun trinket or too to bring home.“

“just stopped on for a couple beers~we'll be back for the walleye tomorrow!!!!“

“We may have higher expectations for the food or we didn’t select the best menu items which evidently is the pork chop. At any rate we appreciated being seated by Pat and told what is good and also the history of the building.
I ordered a Cosmo but immediately knew it wouldn’t be great. It was red vs light pink. Oh well?‍♀️
Ordered popovers for the four of us. They were good. Here’s the menu items we had - the flatiron steak (chewy), shrimp scampi but must order angel hair pasta as a side otherwise it comes with nothing, the Pot Pie - very good crust but mostly vegetables and less chicken.
It was a very slow night - only 4 tables of diners. Maybe that impacts the kitchen.
We did appreciated the quiet atmosphere but not the flies that decided to dine on our food while we were eating.“

“Crosswoods Ladies League held their Spring Banquet at Wharf June 5th in the upstairs area. EXCELLENT service especially by Troy, food was great and Corey and Kathryn are awesome to plan with. Highly recommend for your next event or outing🥳“

“The view and decks are the best thing about Moonlight Bay. The inside is open with lots of room so you don't feel you are sitting on top of each other. The food is nothing to brag about, my fish sandwich came with "Dill Sauce on the side" it was a pre packed tartar sauce (like you would get at McDonald's). Just know you aren't going for the gourmet dishes. You are going for the ambience.“
