Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Lake Elmo

Our entire experience exceeded expectations…innovative menu was exceptional. Professional staff were gracious, experienced, personable, helpful and knowledgeable. There was tasty music and we could converse and hear. I highly recommend Young Joni for an adventure into fresh dining experience dealt by professional staff.

Great food and service.

We visited Manny’s three days in a row and are not even staying at The W! We had lunch twice and were so impressed that we’re having dinner tonight!!! The food was outstanding, and the service was top top notch! Kudos to our busboy Louis, one of the hardest working people I have met, and our waiter Jorge and waitress Catherine! All of these staff members were very hardworking, professional and friendly and made our experience exceptional. Kudos also to the manager on duty Greg Williams for helping us secure our dinner reservations and appreciating our comments.

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.
