My branded cheeks wouldn't be allowed. Or I wonder if it needs a mood stabilizer. Where is it bipolar. It's high stepping into the low. Play on words

The food is the best! Love the atmosphere! Pricey, but worth it!

We had a wonderful meal at the Hi Lo Club. Their specials are unique and delicious. The waitress was very friendly and found someone who could answer a question we had. Our group had the beef tenderloin, chicken and walleye. All were cooked to perfection with delicious sides of green beans almondine, garlic mashed potatoes and salads. We were so full we didn’t have dessert, but the tray had very generous portions - easily splittable between 2 people. The Hi Lo is on our list to return to!

The Mushroom Wellington was not baked enough. Two people irdered it and said the same. The pastry wrap was white. I've had it before and it was well done, brown and crispy outside. That was disappointing.

They needed more staff because our table of 10+ was left with dishes on our table we had to bus to the side ourselves plus they charged a 20% extra tip for a large group.

Aside from that great atmosphere and facility.

WOW! Amazing from start to finish. Sirloin Oscar and Wagu Ribeye were cooked to perfection. Our waitress was truly awesome and the bartender even whipped up a drink I had while in Canada. I wish I had taken photos but I promise you that they will not dissapoint!

Great atmosphere! Such a cool place!

The Hi-Lo Restaurant is a great restaurant for date night or special occasions. This particular visit was our very first and are wondering why it took us so long to try this splendid oasis of fine dining in southern Minnesota (Lakefield). It was only a 25 minute drive from our home. Well worth the drive. We called a few days ahead for a 6:00 pm dinner reservation. A good thing we did. Even though it was a Thursday night, the restaurant quickly loaded with local and other out of town patrons. We arrived a half hour early so we could try out the basement speakeasy bar. We had a few specialty cocktails in the speakeasy and thoroughly enjoyed the atmosphere as well as our Chocolate Martini and Shipwreck. Our dinner in the main dining room was very tasty and the portions were plenty. We tried the Pork Bellies and Bourbon, and the Spinach Artichoke dip. Both were delicious. They have a pretty good selection of wines and we enjoyed a full bottle of prosecco for a reasonable price. We ordered Walleye as one main entree and Chicken Cordon Bleu as our other. The dessert menu star for us was the Bread Pudding. Their recipe was very traditional but very well made. The service was outstanding and our wait between appetizers and main course was perfect. The staff worked well as a team and our server Jen was on her 'A' game. Hi-Lo is now our preferred restaurant for special occasions.

Normally I would private message the management, but their facebook page does not have the option. We are not into public bashing of a place of business. We were seated and brought menus and water. Then our waitress Mattie walked by and said I will be right with you, 4 times she walked by and said I will be right with you. So now we have been there close to a 1/2 hour and have not ordered. Ordered our food and an appetizer. Pork bites for an appetizer. My wife ordered chicken cordon blue. I ordered a rib eye. Then we waited and waited and waited and waited. No appetizer ever came. Our waitress Mattie never put in the order. When our food did arrive. The grilled asparagus was not grilled and was barely warm and raw. My wife’s meal was very delicious. The mashed potatoes were top notch and her chicken was done to perfection. My steak was ordered medium. It came medium well, almost no pink. It tasted like the lid fell off of the seasoning container. I like the taste of a good steak. No steak sauce, no seasoning whatsoever. Just a really good steak. This steak was so bad, I could not eat it. I kept thinking it would get better as I got to the middle. Nope worse and worse. The waitress finally came back to check on us and drop our bill off. I told her about the terrible steak. She went to talk to manager. The when she came back she squatted down, as if she was talking to a child and needed to get to my level. The she offered a new steak that we could take home or free dessert. Beginning to end, a terrible experience and having a waitress that was not good at her job made it worse. I can not imagine they serve all their steaks with that much salt / seasoning on them. To top it off, this was our first time eating here. It was our 28th wedding anniversary on the 28th of June. We will help you to never receive a bad review from us again. We will not eat at the Hi Lo Club again.
