The four of us had a very positive experience recently at McCormick's. Two of us had the clam strip roll, which was delicious. The fries were cooked just right, and my request for no seasoning was done properly. My husband had the grouper sandwich and he enjoyed it. The fourth person had a burger. Our server was great and kept on top of keeping our water glasses full. My previous experience hadn't been so good in terms of my meal, so I'm happy to give a good review.

One of my new favorite breakfast spots. They have awesome huevos rancheros, a huge selection of Benedictâs the lobster Benedict is my favorite. The biscuits and gravy are also very good. Finally the bacon is great the jalapeño bacon is unbelievable. While there they also had a meat raffle going on, who doesnât like a meat raffle. The place is decent in size but fills up fast. The service was very good and prices reasonable. I look forward to trying more of the breakfast options along with their dinner menu. The Narrows is a local hot spot and a must try.

I've been here a half dozen times since moving to the area. I can't understand why people like this place. For lunch or dinner its the same situation - slow and unsteady service. The food is just OK. I think people like the happy hour. Skip.Hi lucycan, thanks for the feedback and Iâm sorry your experiences have been less than great. We pride ourselves on great food and service every day, and typically get very positive feedback. The year we just ended was our busiest ever. If you would be kind enough to contact me and offer up specifics, that would be great. We do listen, and try to incorporate feedback. I hope we see you again.Greg PrattGeneral Manager

First time to Lord Fletcher. Warm day with lots of boat traffic and people out for a good evening. Made reservations for seating above the crazy patio which made for super people watching with good music. The shrimp, parm chicken, walleye and appetizers were shared with excellent reports. Will try this again soon.

While visiting family in Minnesota we were taken here for lunch. Overall it was a very pleasurable experience. Nice selection of food on the menu including vegetarian options, great beer selection on tap and terrific service. Whenever we visit MN we try to get some Walleye and they had a few choices.I started with the "I Just Want a Small Salad" and it was anything but small. I went for their Walleye Fish and Chips (I rarely eat fried fish but this was a treat) and they were absolutely delicious! Prices were fair and the quality of food was very good. Also our waitress was EXCELLENT! I'm sory I forgot her name! Definitely will be back the next time we are in MN.Thank you for the great compliments! We are so glad that you enjoyed your dining experience with us! We love that you rarely eat fish but loved our fish and chips! We look forward to seeing you again when you come back through town!
5. Houlihan's

Forget 'casual dining.' That's an industry term so out of touch with how consumers eat and drink today. For premium quality and style; fare that's at times familiar and other times adventurous and a laid-back modern setting, Houlihan's is a true original.

As a small group of 8, we visited Houlihan's. Everyone was happy with their meals and service. I had a shrimp dish which is great. One comment I would like to make as I have an extreme allergy. They were very accommodating and and made sure I did not have to worry about any cross-contamination. We will return!!So thrilled to hear you and your group enjoyed your visit! Thanks for letting us know.

Food is average at best BUT ir is across the street from the lake and sitting on the sidewalk deck with a pitcher of beer (Yes they have pitchers) is great people watching in the warm season. Not the best for kids, this is a working mans drinking bar inside.

Easy walk from Lake Minnetonka. In a cute down town area, with unique little boutiques.Relaxed atmosphere. Friendly wait staff. We enjoyed some good craft beers and appetizers. The nachos were very good and so were the tacos and cheese curds. If you are looking for a relaxing, no-frills place to eat in Excelsior, this is it.

I stopped in with the family on Father's day June 16th 2019. My burger was alright. Nothing special except for the bacon which was thick and smoky. We all had fries and none of us ate them. What kind of fancy restaurant can't even make some edible fries? My girlfriend got the French Onion soup and didn't eat it. It had a weird sweet flavor. My shrimp corn chowder was really good. Then I see my girlfriend picking at her walleye sandwich so I ask to try it. I took just a bit of the white walleye flake from the middle and I could not get it out of my mouth fast enough. Keep in mind that I am not a picky eater at all. I once ate 5 nightcrawlers for a charity event but I spit this walleye out and immediately began looking for something to wash my tongue. I'm home now and swishing Listerine and I still can't get the taste out of my mouth. It's as if they just completely forgot to remove the skin or something. The fishiness was overwhelming and rancid tasting. By far the worst fish I've ever put in my mouth, bar none. It was the worst thing of any kind I've put in mouth and I've had Lutefisk. I have cooked my fair share of walleye over the years and I'm not very good at it. I've botched it horribly many times and it still comes out delicious every time. Then we laugh about how it is impossible to screw up walleye. It is impossible. It's delicious every time no matter what you do. Well, not at Hazellewood Grill. God, I can still taste it. Just absolutely putrid. Literally like licking a live fish and sucking the slime off. I am shocked that a fancy restaurant with these prices would put something like this on a table in front of a customer. Just shocked beyond belief. They took it off the bill but that is far too little for something this horrible. They should have comped the whole bill. Better yet. Fire the chef from that night. That is absolutely unforgivable. I wouldn't eat here again if they gave me free food for the rest of my life.We are so sorry to read that this was your experience with us. Would you please be willing to contact our general manager and discuss this experience. Her name is dede conkey. You can reach her at 952-401-0066 or her email is [email protected]

Very nice lunch experience at Maynards. Nice atmosphere, lovely lake view and top notch service. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food. My Cobb salad was exceptional, tasty grilled chicken, crisp cool romaine and lots of goodies.. blue cheese, bacon , olives, egg and perfectly ripe avocado slices. Burgers also great, cooked to order, beefy flavor, very good. Great stop after a visit to the Arboretum.
