There's a fantastic new restaurant in Baudette that is quickly becoming a favorite among locals. It's the best place to dine in Baudette proper. We tried the pretzel and deep fried pickle appetizers, both of which were delicious. The Cajun chicken Caesar wrap, prime rib, and burgers were outstanding choices for our main courses.

The prices were higher than the quality of the food. The decor was nice, but there were too many flies inside and the layout of the restaurant was awkward. Overall, don't try to act trendy when you're not!

The old fashioned drink was delicious. The service was outstanding. The food was tasty. Dining in for dinner, the price per person is between $30-$50. Perfect score of 5 for both food and service, while the atmosphere rated a 4.

All I wanted was to treat myself to an upscale meal and this place did exactly that! We went from restaurant to restaurant with no such luck until we came here. Kelly was our server and she took the best care of us! Our food was fantastic and theenvironment was perfect. I was so impressed by the high quality of food and the diversity of the menu items. From now on,whenever I want a great experience, this is where I will come! Great job all around to the staff and owner for giving me what 2other towns couldn?t!
