The server we had was outstanding. She was so busy but you'd never know it. She gets a 10 out of 10, hands down!

Upscale restaurant, reservation prefered. We walking in late on a Saturday night without reservation and barely got a table at the bar. Server's were plesent and very busy. Food was slow coming out as expected with it that busy. Salmon was cooked excellent crispy edge moist inside. Smooth red mashed potatoes Buffalo burger was seasoned well. Long beer and drink list to chose from

My wife and I have been here twice. On both occasions we had made reservations. The first time we we seated for a FULL 20 MINUTES before anyone even came by to take our drink order. We had already decided what we wanted by then (using an online menu because no one had brought us a real one) so we put in our order immediately. Even so, it was over an hour before we got our order, and other tables that were seated well after we were had already received their food. The food itself was fine, but forgettable.

Last weekend we decided to give this place another try. Again, we had made a reservation. Again, we were seated for a full 15 minutes without a server coming to take our drink order or even to acknowledge our existence. A server stopped by the tables on either side of us multiple times and walked by without so much as glancing in our direction. Eventually we just got up and walked out of the restaurant.

If a server had come by shortly after our arrival, apologized for keeping us waiting, assuring us that they would be with us momentarily, that would've been fine. If we had waited twenty minutes for a server to come take our drink order, but they had apologized for the excessive wait, and our food had arrived quickly, that would have been fine. Instead, we waited an absurd length of time for drinks and to place our order, we waited an absurd amount of time to receive our mediocre food, and the service was all together abysmal. We will not be visiting this place again.

We have been here several times and it was really good. It's been a year and now it's average. 3 had prime rib and all 3 were disappointed. It was flavorless as was the au jus. 1 had the New York Strip & enjoyed it. The salad was ok with a really soft fresh roll. The meal comes with the veg of the day and mashed potatoes. You don't get a potato choice. Not terrible but will try another place next time.

We stayed for 3 nights at the Duluth Downtown Holiday Inn & Suites for the wife to have same day surgery at St. Mary's (they kept her overnight). We were both stressed and exhausted. Because of this I just ordered room service from Lyric.
My orders: Cajun Pasta - excellent, I thought I was back in New Orleans. French toast & sausage links - simple but good. Pot Roast - very tasty, great flavor, nice portion.
Wife had: Smoked gouda cheese burger with fries - great taste, she loved it. Chicken dumpling soup (bowl) - perfect amount, great taste.
Room service: All meals were hot and arrived at the promised time. Server staff was great.
Prices are fare and reasonable. There is an upcharge for room service.
The only minus is the Duluth Downtown Holiday Inn & Suites does not have a continental breakfast and both restaurants in the hotel are closed on Sunday & Monday. This may be the winter schedule but you may want to check. Just use the hotel shuttle to go out to eat, there are plenty of good places to eat within 5 minutes of the hotel. Our truck never left the hotel during our stay.
Absolutely will stay and eat here again.

Went in on a Wednesday night at about 6pm, upon walking in, I was harassed by an unhoused individual for food or something, no employees in sight of the entire restaurant to do anything. Then stood at the hostess stand before a member of the kitchen staff walked by and asked if I’d been helped and he’d go get the hostess. I was seated, the hostess gave me a glass of water and I sat there for 10 minutes with no service waiting and waiting. There was two other people in the restaurant… and I sat there with no acknowledgment. Finally after about 15 minutes of sitting there, a group of 6 came in and was seated and asked what they’d like to drink. I got up and left at that point. Eventhough it’s a Wednesday, no wonder the restaurant was dead and empty, don’t waste your time here.

Ordered dinner for room service that had an 18% up charge along with a $5 service fee that i was never made aware of, i assumed there was going to be an up charge for a service fee but 18% with another five dollars? absolutely ridiculous. $33 in food ended up being $52. Again, i was NEVER made aware of these additional charges and i never saw them online.

Went here once 5 years ago. Gave it a four with no context. Went again today and the service was great. Food tasted great. They commented about earning that 5th star. They got it today from me.
