    Tasty fresh food. Great service. Sausage, eggs and toast were cooked perfectly. I didn't expect the big sausage patties and thick fresh bread. Put this place on your list!

    Food and service is way above average and nobody makes a better pizza! We enjoy Thursday night bingo and Sunday brunch.

    We stopped here on our way to the North Shore scenic drive, and it ended up being one of the cutest…read morespots of our trip! The restaurant overlooks the lake, making for such a beautiful and relaxing setting. The ambiance is absolutely charming, and I loved the serveware, it gave the whole meal a lovely high tea feel. The food was on the pricey side, but every single thing we ordered was absolutely delicious. They also had a display of freshly baked goods at the front, so we picked up a few treats to take on the road. Those were just as amazing as our meal! The staff was incredibly welcoming and sweet, and I loved all the thoughtful little touches throughout the restaurant. One of my favorites was the guestbook they invite visitors to sign before leaving. It's details like that that make a place feel extra special. I would absolutely recommend stopping here if you're driving the North Shore. Beautiful views, delicious food, and such a warm, memorable experience.

    Must stop on your tour of the north shore. This is the gem on scenic 61. Great staff and service…read more Relaxed family lake vibes on the inside. Order: Sashimi tuna tacos. Fresh tuna, creamy avocado on the inside with a crispy wonton shell. Nice citrus ponzu sauce but the real star was the Japanese inspired coleslaw. Curry mussels. Just a big bowl of deliciousness. Delicious tender mussels with a cravable curry sauce. Fresh bread on the side to soak up all the liquid gold in the bowl. Enjoy. Lobster roll. Freshly prepared lobster served cold in a buttery toasty bun. It was as good as it looked. Homemade chips on the side added the needed texture and crunch to the dish. Grilled artichoke toast. This was the surprise of the meal. It was an artichoke lovers dream. I would drive 2.5 hours for this dish without hesitation. It was that good.

    Went to Two Harbors tonight for a basketball game and left Duluth early to grab a bite to eat…read morebeforehand. I've heard of this pizza place several times and have been meaning to give it a try. My dad and I walked in and we were greeted by a very pleasant and polite gal who made us feel right at home immediately. I didn't have my readers so I couldn't see the menu and just ordered a sausage and pepperoni pizza. The place had a nice vibe and while she was making pizzas the gal was still interacting with us. The pizza came out of the oven and served in about 15 minutes. Piping hot and cooked just enough on the well done side to be perfect. The first bite burned my mouth, my fault for not waiting. Each bite after that was amazing. The pizza crust was thin, crunchy, but light and airy almost. I've not experienced that type of crust before. The sauce had a distinct flavor that was top notch and the sausage was flavorful but not overbearing. I looked at my dad and said this is probably the best pizza I've ever had. He said the same thing. Highly recommend this place if you're stopping in Two Harbors, passing through or just decide to drive up like we will be doing next week to try another.

    I was optimistic to explore this small town pizza place for the first time! I placed an online…read moreorder which was super seamless, they use the Square platform and took Apple Pay which I always appreciate. Unfortunately when I arrived there was no greeting from any of the numerous staff. The two front desk employees were very busy with their registers and the phone, and it was 5 minutes before I was able to speak to someone. The main lady was a bit short with me, (and I saw her be much shorter with other customers). They were really busy, so I can sympathize with the stress, but some more manners would have went a long way. Unfortunately my pickup time was 15 minutes later than the ETA I was given online. When it came to the pizza itself though, they really delivered! It's possibly the best BBQ Chicken pizza I've had, even though I was surprised by the inclusion of dill pickles. If you're a pizza fan visiting the north shore it's definitely worth considering this place!
