New American Restaurants near Nisswa, MN

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

“Great Valentines Dinner, 💕😍“

“Came in for a light bite and ordered the prime rib nachos. They were easily some of the best nachos I’ve had in the area. My dining partner and I split them, and they were more than filling enough for both of us. The prime rib was incredibly tender and packed with flavor.

Service was very fast and attentive, though at times it felt like the staff was almost running away before I could get a word in.

Overall, it was a great experience, and I’ll definitely be coming back.“

“Absolutely best restaurant I’ve been to in Minnesota. I wish they had the classic grill in the cities, but it’s always a special treat coming to our lake home and getting the experience of eating here. The food is phenomenal, the staff is amazing and the atmosphere is unmatched. Every time I visit, I can count on trying one of the new menu items and being in awe of the flavors and presentation. The favorite orders of our group were the Indonesian chicken satay appetizer, the chef’s risotto, and the truffle citrus scallops. My attached picture won’t do it justice, but the presentation of the meals is so unique. If they had Michelin star restaurants in Minnesota, this would for sure be the running. Maddens resort is truly the best location in the brainerd area.“

“Our waiter was kind and quick to answer our questions and concerns about allergens. He stayed attentive during our visit and kept our waters filled. Our experience featured a beautiful view of the golf course and we got to watch planes flying by. My girlfriend and I ordered our steaks medium rare but mine came out a little tough. Hers was cooked perfect and her meal was amazing. I felt my meal was decent and not worth the price, but the shallot butter pan sauce was spectacular.

Dietary restrictions: I’m allergic to peanuts and shellfish so the waiter double checked my dinner choices. Ended up switching choices due to cross contamination in the frying oil and had to swap my fries for a loaded baked potato.“

“Our favorite place to celebrate special occasions. Service is great and food is even better! Our favorite is the bruschetta, but they must have changed it and it is not nearly as good as it used to be. We will continue to make this place a tradition though!“
