Restaurants near Rice Lake National Refuge

We love Bar Harbor but tonight was a little off as the restaurant is preparing to close for the season. Our server Marsha was great and we definitely enjoyed being there. As you might imagine it’s a much more fun place to be in the summer with all the boats coming and going. But despite the lack of activity and people watching, we enjoyed our dinner tonight! Pearl Harbor will always be our go to place at the lake!

We had the Christmas T-Bone dinner that we shared, crab cakes, salad, vegetables, and ice tea. The steak was prepared the way we asked for it, medium rare, seasoned nicely, warm rolls, and we enjoy their ranch dressing. The waiter was very attentive and friendly. The overall experience was most enjoyable. This was the third time we have eaten here, and it has gotten better each time. We will be repeat customers.

Wonderful food, everything was delicious! Nice selection. Staff was super! Price is a tad high, but well worth the convenience of just showing up and not having to cook or do dishes. This has been our go-to for the last 5 years on Thanksgiving. Thank you to the staff for sacrificing part of their holiday with their families to do this.

Jess is always a great server. The food was excellent for all four of us. A great place for a nice dinner.

Wednesday night steak special is the best! Jen was a great server. My only suggestion is because it is such a beautiful setting that in the off-season to put a few outside spotlights on two accentuate the beautiful outdoor setting.
