50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Lake Elmo

“We recently got married (October 2024) and Lake Elmo Inn catererd our wedding. It was absolutely AMAZING! We had the prime rib carving station and the walleye as well as the duck soup and salad. Our guests are still talking about the food. We decided to upgrade to the "LEI Experience" which means each of your guests get a warm hand towel, an intermezzo sorbet, and a chocolate covered strawberry!!! We were over the moon with the service on the night of the wedding and all our communication with LEI throughout the process. Special shoutout to Kayla G. who was the most patient, professional, and kind event manager! She answered every single one of my (many) questions and she did so with a smile! On the night of the wedding, we were SO impressed with how fast the servers were able to get to each of our guest tables and keep the flow going. It was seamless, seriously. We cannot recommend Lake Elmo Inn Catering enough. They've total pro's and just know that you'll be in good hands. Thank you again to everyone on the team for your hard work to make the dream come true!! <3“

“Perfect little spot to sit on a summer afternoon and have a burger and a beer. The turkey burger was first rate, better than I think any one I've had at a restaurant in the Twin Cities.

“Our first time there on Wednesday night. Service was excellent, Kendra was fantastic. The deviled eggs with shrimp was awesome The six of us all had something different from the scallops to the walleye to the salmon all fantastic. There was also dessert like bread pudding to banana cream pie, also fantastic. Can’t wait till our next dinning experience. It will be real soon!“

“Let me just start by saying:\nKeys Cafe has ruined biscuits & gravy for me — in the best possible way.\nBecause now nothing else compares. Nothing. I’ve peaked.\n\nThe biscuits?\nFluffy, warm, and so fresh you’d think someone’s grandma is in the back whispering prayers over the dough.\nThey come out steaming, soft in the center, with that perfect golden exterior that holds up to gravy like a damn champion. \n\nAnd the gravy… listen.\nI don’t know who’s in charge back there, but this was buttery, perfectly seasoned, full of actual sausage, and the ideal thickness — not that heavy, gluey kind that makes you rethink your order, and not watery either. Just… right. Goldilocks would weep.\n\nThe hash browns?\nCrispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and somehow not greasy at all.\nI don’t know how they pulled that off. Witchcraft? Voodoo? A deal with the breakfast gods? Don’t care. I respect it.\n\nOverall, it was the kind of breakfast that makes you stop mid-bite just to nod at your plate.“

“Best meal! We by chance stopped in for supper and a drink this past Friday night and were impressed by what great food we all had. 5 of us ordering different items and all were meals were so fresh and delicious! And service was outstanding! We would definitely recommend the Mad Capper to anyone who is visiting Stillwater!“

“Great food, great service, great staff. We had the fungi burger, tavern burger, pomme frites, dipping sauces(they have a lot), and French onion soup. Everything was perfectly cooked, hot, juicy, crispy, and delicious. Our server was Kendall and she was well informed on the specials and the menu, she was polite and friendly and remembered our orders and asked the right questions. All around impressive.“

“FABULOUS! My husband and I rarely try new places but this time we decided to go out of the norm. Cannot say enough great things. We sat at the bar and Timmy took care of us. Chef’s kiss 😘 We will be back!“

“The best burger I ever had! I wanted the jalapeño but wasn’t sure about putting the waitress said yes but gave it to me on the side by the time I was done that jam was all over my burger. I highly recommend this place“

“It's my 1st time @ an Indian restaurant like this 1. The service is great and friendly. Also, the food is so delicious. Especially the Alu Samosa and the Mango Lassi because they're officially my favorite stuff.“

“Best coffee ever!!“

“Went there for Townie Tuesday. Every week a different cause is supported from purchases of pints, crowlers and growlers. This week it was the Stillwater Public Library. Head over there Tuesdays to support local no-profits. Beer was great as always and had an enjoyable chat with the barkeep.“

“Fabulous evening with live music and great food. Dominic (son of Brad) the best server we’ve had in our road trip across The USofA.“

“Were there last Saturday night with friends for dinner and the festivities outside. Had a great time and very impressed with the service. Some of our party were very late (got lost), but the server and host both were very accommodating. It's been years since we've been there from out-of-state, but thought both the food and event were great. Only small criticism, get a band that plays mostly German songs - don't need to hear oldies from this country at German event (e.g. Neil Diamond?).“

“My girlfriend and I recently checked out Post American Eatery for the first time and had an awesome experience! The atmosphere was really cool and relaxed, and the staff was incredibly friendly. My girlfriend ordered the Beef Ragu and loved it! The meat was super tender, and the sauce was just right. I went for the Prime Rib special, and it was delicious – cooked perfectly and packed with flavor. Our server was great, too – really helpful and laid-back. We're definitely looking forward to coming back and trying more dishes. If you're looking for a place with great food, a cool vibe, and excellent service, I'd highly recommend giving Post American Eatery a try. We had a fantastic time and can't wait to go back!“

The menus had great variety and was delicious! This place is worth the trip for us and we WILL be back! Thanks Penny for your awesome service that made our visit that much better!“

“Great people and atmosphere. Clean place, fun history, cold beer, and cool staff. We'll be back.“

“Not only is the pizza excellent, but the staff is, too. And the restaurant seems even quieter and more comfortable than some of the other locations. Plus, the chocolate brownies are almost criminally delicious.“
