My friend described the coziness of it as "your grandma's house". We got in line right in time because it filled up right after we ordered. They have tons of coffee and tea options as well as baked goods and hot food of the day items (quiche, frittata, etc). They also do beer and wine and had a solid tap selection. I had the dovetail latte and my friend had an iced vanilla latte and we both loved our coffees. They also have a small craft and trinket section from local sellers which was so cool and made the space feel so homey. It was so good we ended up doing back later that weekend as well. Recommend if you're in the area!

The highlight is their lattes, especially the almond latte. They use high quality organic syrups and it makes such a big difference in the flavor.

My son and I were visiting Duluth this past weekend and had breakfast at Duluth Grill, Sunday,…read more5/31. We had checked reviews and saw there were some reviews indicating this restaurant was not as good as it used to be. We decided to see for ourselves as the menu, other positive reviews sounded like it was an incredibly good place to go. It is. It was. It was busy, being a Sunday morning especially, but the staff was handling it all well from our perspective . I used to manage restaurants a long time ago and was impressed with the flow. Our waitress, Natalie, was delightful, knew the menu well to describe and answer questions, and we were not wanting for anything. She checked on us, always grinning and managing the iace well. I had the banana bread pancakes. A perfect choice ! They came and looked like a picture stacked up and flowing down with Carmel, maple bourbon syrup, marzcapone cream and nuts. So delicious. I took half home and enjoyed the rest later. Heated up perfectly with a 20 second zap in micro. My son had the corn beef hash skillet and said his was just as good as mine. We both agreed that we had no idea why reviews were negative, especially going on a busy morning. We will be going back every time we visit. I recommend you do too.

We love the Duluth Grill. I still miss the old, bigger menu…read more My husband always orders a more traditional breakfast and he really liked it. Today I went for the Blueberry Yum Yum which is a chicken sandwich with blueberry compote and jalapenos. They make their own compote and are almost out so hurry while you can to try this item. Very good and very messy but the combo worked surprisingly well. Don't miss the hashbrowns as they are truly excellent. And the Local tea is always a favorite with honey and lemon. Free parking. Cynthia S. did a great job serving us today.

Visited Bali Asian Cuisine in Duluth today. When we arrived around 4:30 on a Saturday, the dining…read moreroom was nearly empty, but by the time we left it was completely full. I had the Bali Margarita, which has a solid kick (they can make it milder upon request). My husband ordered an Old Fashioned. We both enjoyed our drinks. We shared the Spicy Peanut Wings to start, and they were easily the highlight of the meal--they were perfectly crispy and saucy. For mains, my husband ordered the Nasi Mawut. It wasn't bad, but it lacked flavor. I ordered the Bali Roll and the Cinco de Mayo Roll. Both were excellent--large rolls with fresh-tasting fish. Even my husband, who's not big on sushi, really liked them. Service was friendly and the dining room was comfortable. We'll likely try other spots nearby before returning, but we'd consider coming back for the sushi and wings.

Delicious food with many GF options. They also have plenty of vegetarian and meat options too…read more My hippies breakfast was great and the gf bread was baked there and the best I have ever had. I bought a loaf to take home. Cute vibe with books around the restaurant that you can "adopt for a small fee." Service was friendly. They have a large coffee, drink, and mocktails section.

I wanted an omelette, but they only offered two options, but the server let me kind of build my own. It was so fluffy and amazing! The real star was the potatoes, which I normally do not eat. These were addicting! The toast was so perfect too with homemade jam. I will always visit Sara's when up in Duluth.

The ambiance and service speed could have been better, but the food hit the spot and was enjoyed by the entire family! Sandwiches and soup could be for dine in or to-go. The building has no trash so there was 10 tables sitting with the leftover trash from the previous customers which felt a little weird that nothing could be cleaned up self service or why it wasn't getting picked up on going. Overall, I'd recommend this place and at lunch time expect ~15min for your food to come.

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.

We have been meaning to try this place for years and today was the day!…read more Parking: There is a free parking lot or store we parking. Ambiance: This is located inside a building with other food and trinkets! Definitely worth checking everything out after you eat! These guys are located on the lower level! There is truly character in this basement level. If you know the "vibes" of Duluth, this definitely has that charm! When it's warm out, definitely worth taking the food to go and sitting out by superior! The service: polite and very quick to move through a very busy lunch line. Food: my boyfriend got the clubhouse toasted! That was the right move, definitely do that! I got the Cedars secret. The turkey is sooo flavorful!! I mean holy moly! It also comes on a pillowy soft naan bread! They do have gluten free option! I would highly recommend this place for a fresh bite!

The menu is simple but…read morethoughtfully crafted with local ingredients, and we happened to visit on a Tuesday when they had live music -- such a nice touch. I started with the Tempura Fried Cauliflower appetizer, which ended up being my favorite dish of the night! You can choose between sambal aioli or crabapple BBQ sauce -- I had the aioli drizzled on top and the crabapple sauce on the side, and it was amazing. I'm not usually into autumn spice flavors, but the crabapple sauce was subtle, slightly smoky, and paired beautifully with the crispy cauliflower. For my entrée, I had the Coconut Curry Bowl. It was flavorful and hearty, though a bit strong and salty for my personal taste. They also offer a kids' menu with generous portions (I've included a photo for reference -- grilled chicken, fries, and veggies). Overall, great vibes, friendly service, and a wonderful cause. We loved supporting a non-profit restaurant dedicated to the arts and community development!
