I love stopping at the Burger King in Lake City. I find the location to be the perfect pit stop when I drive up Hwy 61 to the twin cities. This Burger King received a recent remodel. The restaurant feels very modern, clean and upscale. The food is consistently fresh and satisfying. My experiences here have been consistently good!

Bluffside Grill & Bar

Dining at Bluffside Grill & Bar is tucked away in a scenic setting that offers panoramic views of manicured greens and lush fairways surrounded by the majestic Mississippi River Bluffs. Whether it's a burger and a beer, or one of our signature dinner entr

Usually decide dinner based on TA reviews.........never looked this time, and our meal was great! We had the Friday night fish fry, very good and reasonably priced. Sat outside overlooking the course--first class decor and service. Looks like the management from our standpoint has turned things around. And it was packed when we left around 630 :)

A solid, though unspectacular, burger. Pretty good prices. Friendly staff. Mostly local patrons. Beer is cold and the A/C works, so a nice spot for lunch on a hot day.

Lake House on Pepin

We offer lakeside dining and cocktails with a spectacular view of Lake Pepin, the Mississippi River’s largest lake. Please relax and enjoy our newly remodeled and coastal themed dining room or the outdoor patio

This is a good location with a great view of the water and the paddleboat. The food was good too, but they need to practice better sanitation. There were flies that would not leave you alone. They were on the deck and the table. Others were swatting as well. It is likely not easy to keep the outdoor surfaces clean, but you have to do it! A fan would have helped too. Staff was very nice and everything else was fine. But it totally marred my visit.

The pizza was delicious and well priced. The best deal is the ice cream. A great selection of flavors and great price. A nice treat for a walk along the lake.

Port 104

Reviewed By fawtandthebaby

Came here with a couple of buddies. Had the chicken skewers which were quite good and loaded with veggies. Went well with my beer. Waitress was friendly but service from the kitchen was slow that night considering there weren't that many people in the place. Music was a bit too loud for our taste too. We'd come back.

Nosh Restaurant & Bar

Reviewed By 7lenny7

Fantastic food at a reasonable price! This place is probably the most expensive place to eat in Lake City, but it's worth every penny. Four of us ate here last Friday. We made reservations and were seated right away. Every one of us loved what we ordered. Seafood Paella, Lamb chops, crab cakes, scallops, calamari, and beet salad. All were wonderful! That Paella...holy Hannah is that some amazing stuff! I was the last one to finish my meal because I was savoring every single bite of this dish. I highly recommend it. I think the next time I come here I'll order the lamb chops if available. I was amazed at the amount of meat on the plate and they were perfectly cooked medium rare.If you're a bourbon drinker, check the drink menu. While they don't have a huge menu, they do have some quality picks (Baker's, Basil Haden, Makers, Knob Creek) at a lower prices than most places. My suggestion is to go for the Knob Creek Single Barrel for only $8.50. That was cheaper than my wife's wine!Oh, and lets not forget that view. It's an incredible view you won't find at many other restaurants.

Chickadee Cottage Cafe, Lake City, Mn On the Great River Road

Reviewed By JeffS228

We were in Lake City camping for the weekend, a very wet and windy weekend. So our focus moved from hiking and sightseeing to eating. Pie in Stockholm, Wisconsin, snacks at the local bowling alley to watch the Gophers play football, and some inside grazing. So when it came to Sunday morning the Chickadee seemed like a good option. We were not disappointed. On Sundays they have a brunch without the line... family style. Food is very good and plentiful, but in smaller portions upon demand. The old cottage setting provided a very pleasant atmosphere to eat and chat, making for a nice way to finish our wet and windy weekend. Oh... the staff and own are pretty good too. We will be going back.

The Railhouse Grill has a very large menu. We had a table of 8 and everyone loved their food. I had the pizza and it was GREAT. The waitress was helpful and kind. Afterward, we went to the lounge and heard great live music. The kids got free ice cream. It was blue and they loved it.
