Zagat scores the Lake Elmo Inn at a 28 out of 30 for food, calling us a "hidden secret". We also received Wine Spectator's Award of Excellence for our extensive wine list for twelve years in a row.

Wow! The Inn is beautifully festive. We enjoyed a wonderful Christmas gathering with my husband's coworkers. The food and service were wonderful. We had a very enjoyable evening.

Rare that we award five stars to any restaurant. Today's lunch was simply excellent. Our reservation through Open Table was jumbled a bit between the online reservation and restaurant staff but the Inn was quick to make certain things were corrected. We had a corner table in the bar and the bar tender/waiter was knowledgeable about the menu and very prompt with service.The food is creative and simply put; very good. Everything appears to be fresh and made on premises. Baked goods were all very good as was the impressive assortment of desserts that change daily.We dine out often, and the Lake Elmo Inn appears to understand why it is that people dine out; excellent food with matching service.

This restaurant has first-rate service as well as yummy meals. My favourite spot in the city. The drinks and food served rapidly and the prices were inexpensive. I recommend this place.
