It started raining before we arrived, so I think everyone headed inside at once, but we were able to grab seats at the bar and still received great service. I ordered the AYCE walleye. The portions were a little smaller than I expected, but the fish was good and I especially enjoyed the hush puppies. My husband ordered the Loon Burger and said it was one of the best burgers he's had in a while. The only downside was the wait for the second round of walleye, which took close to 30 minutes. By then we were ready to leave, so we ended up taking it to go. Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely come back to try some of the other menu items!!

But they have like 20+ different taps, so a variety of options to try! Love the self-service and always a friendly staff!

A little known fact about me is that I lived in the Land of 10,000 Lakes for some of my adult life…read more Northern Minnesota to be exact. It didn't take long for me to crave some of the flavors of Tex Mex that was so abundant back in Texas where I lived. My friends suggested I give Zorbaz a chance and it is still a place I like to visit when I go back. What they are known for here is Mexican food and pizza. Weird combo, but it hits the spot. You can get the best of both worlds if you order the Mexican pizza which is basically a taco salad on a pizza. It is one of my go to items here. They do put alot of focus on the Mexican food side of the menu with items you would expect like quesadillas, burritos, tacos, etc. Is it authentic or close to what I get back home? Nah. It's still tasty food and gets the job done. They also have a very impressive tap beer selection with beers from all over. When in MN, I will always go with a Michelob Golden though! They have locations throughout MN but I've only been to the location on Cross Lake. I'll continue coming back if in the area.

The proprietors…read moreare serving up authentic modern Vietnamese and Thai dishes, alongside standard up north favorites like burgers and fish and chips. Two of us had the Pad Thai, one had steak and potatoes, and the other Szechuan tofu. The Pad Thai stands up to any version I've had anywhere, a strong and solid offering with the tanginess of tamarind balanced with fresh chopped cilantro. The traditional beef and potatoes dish can be hit and miss, but this one balanced potatoes with crispy edges and pillowy starchiness with quality strips of steak, all stir fried together in just enough brown sauce to bring it together. The tofu and snap peas in a spicy Szechuan sauce were flavorful and hearty enough after appetizers. We didn't get pictures of the egg rolls, which are as good as you'll find in these parts and the spring rolls, which were slightly less authentic than we'd hoped. We finished off with lemon bar ice cream, Vietnamese flan, and a toffee Bundt cake. Red Pine Cookhouse is a visually impressive log building with plenty of natural light flowing in through the many windows and a curved staircase leading up to a game room for the kids. We enjoyed the evening on the patio. We were thrilled to have been introduced to this gem of a restaurant, and look forward to our next trip back!

Our waiter provided excellent service and was attentive throughout the meal. The kid's meals were delicious, and the burgers were outstanding--definitely the highlight of our visit. The wraps and sandwiches, however, could use some improvement. The Buffalo Chicken Wrap wasn't nearly as spicy as expected and tasted pretty mild. The Chicken Bacon Ranch was on the dry side and came with a thick slice of American cheese, which didn't seem like the best choice. I think it would be much better with shredded cheese and a side of ranch to add some moisture and flavor. Overall, we'd come back for the great service, burgers, and lively atmosphere, but we'd probably skip the wraps and sandwiches next time.
