Restaurants near Holiday Inn St. Paul Northeast - Lake Elmo

We had reservations on Valentines Day for lunch, so it was busy as expected. Everything was great. We waited maybe 10 minutes to be seated with a reservation, partly because we requested a booth instead of a table. I have waited longer in the past for a table without a reservation. The service and food were all excellent. We had a meal, cocktail and dessert. I have been to this location several times in the past and it has been very busy. I will mention that the only negative about it is because of the openness of the floor plan and how busy it is, it is sometimes quite loud. Otherwise, highly recommend!!

Always the best!!! Everything is exceptional from the minute you walk in the door!

Four people--three meal choices: the short ribs, the filet mignon, and the walleye dinner. All were outstanding. The ribs and the filet mignon were tender and flavorful, as was the walleye for which the Inn is known. We each had a cocktail and were very satisfied--no scrimping with the alcohol, which was nice. Sue, our waitress, was top-notch--I think she's been there for years so she is very experienced. No dessert for us although the choices looked yummy. Lake Elmo Inn is a special place and worth the trip there, for sure.

Wonderful! Servings are generous and service was fast!

Awesome Christmas dining experience! Our server was top-notch! The food was a 10/10.
