When I was looking for a place to host a larger party for dinner, I had trouble finding a…read morerestaurant in the area that would accommodate 20 people. Not only did Blackwoods accept our reservation, Ben and the rest of the staff went out of their way to make sure we were cared for all evening. They didn't give us a timeline to adhere to, the food was delicious, and the service was impeccable. I was so impressed and will continue to support Blackwoods whenever I'm in town.

My wife and I had an early dinner here 12th of July 26. We greeted with a smile and seated very…read morequickly. All the staff we encountered were polite and appeared to like working there. I.e. no attitudes. My wife ordered the pot roast. It was a plate full and tasted good. I ordered the backwoods Walleye. Which is a pan seared fillet of walleye with some broccoli and a sweet potato. Sweet potato was the best part of the meal! The fish represented as fantastic. It tasted incredibly fishing! Not typical Walleye. Had this been the first time I had ever eaten while I would probably never order it again anywhere. I did eat everything due to being hungry / hangry. I mentioned how fishy the fish was to both the waiter and the manager both apologized, but did not offer anything further. I've eaten at the Blackwoods and two harbors and had a fantastic meal, not so much. Once again, staff was great restaurant was clean food mediocre.

Enjoyed it. We've…read morebeen coming to Jade Fountain once a year when we're in the area visiting our son, for several years now. We've always ordered their Old Fashioned, so tonight was no exception. I wasn't too fond of the bourbon used but the drink was well made and was on a nice big ice cube. The vibe here is "speakeasy" in my opinion. Each time we've been here, there's only one person working and he stays busy. But he is very efficient, so we've never waited long for our drinks. One room here has a small stage and PA setup. We've never been here when they had entertainment. But they always have music on in the background for ambiance. Thanks Jade Fountain for capping off our week-long visit to Duluth. See you next time.

Typically, people sitting at a bar drinking alcohol use colorful language. My friend used some colorful language bartender was very rude and said you need to stop talking like that. My 9-year-old brother is sitting over there and I don't like it. First of all, why is there a child at the bar? I realize this is not illegal or against any ordinances, but it certainly is inappropriate to sit a child at a bar where adults are consuming alcoholic beverages. The Beacon used to be a fun place to go not anymore. I will not go back, but the bartender must have been still in high school since she was wearing braces, I did not leave a tip. This was a very tacky move on the part of the mother who thought it was appropriate to prop her child at the bar for adults were having adult conversation

FOOD: I order the Caesar wrap with fries - it was pretty good, but a little watery. A tad overpriced at $18, but that is to be expected for the location. We also ordered beers, and they have a good selection on tap as well as reasonably priced mixed drinks which I hope to try next time. ATMOSPHERE: Pretty classic ski chalet vibes, definitely got crowded around lunch time so it was hard to snag a table. Chairs and tables could be in better condition. SERVICE: You place your order at the bar, and they'll bring it out to your table for you. Despite it being crowded, we didn't have to wait long at the bar to place our order. However, it did take quite a while to get our food after ordering.

Really good food after a day of mtn biking. Excellent fries. Service was good. Would visit again.read more
