Best Cozy Restaurants in Prior Lake

As always a good experience and excellent food, prices are up a little from the last time. However the price being up is to be expected verses other places adding a hidden service charge. This also allows for us to tip accordingly. Staff was friendly, prompt, and worked as a team with others.

The greeting was warm, the server knowledgeable, kind and helpful, the food cooked to perfection and so very good! What more is there to say? A delightful experience on Christmas Eve. Thank you! 🎄

All of our dishes were a very pleasant surprise! We had the Christmas seafood special. The calamari was tender. The shrimp on the second course was spectacular! As was the accompaniment. The main course entree of sea bass was generous and served on top of a potato patty with sauce. The sea bass was perfectly cooked. We had dirty martinis which were very good . Then I had a cucumber cooler which was over priced and just marginally satisfying. We also had an old fashioned which was just good, overpriced as well. How to make the meal better? We both thought that the sea bass would have been better served on a risotto cake or at least crispy potatoes. The patty ended up soggy and rather unappealing. Nor did it complement the sea bass. I would go for a lighter batter on the calamari. The tiramisu was a hit out of the ballpark, save the presentation…. It was served like it was just cut out of a sheet pan and plopped on a plate. It was delicious though. Our server was sweet and attentive. We did request to slow down each delivery of courses as we were drinking and enjoying the experience of the delicious courses and conversation.

Porterhouse was amazing as always this evening. Food and service are always first rate.

It was my first time there. We went for my parents' 40th wedding anniversary. Setting the reservation was easy, and our table was ready right on time. We got the breaking bread appetizer, very good! Their garlic butter is super good, lots of garlic we all really enjoyed it. My grilled salmon was nicely cooked, not dry, and the seasonal vegetables we great (red onion, carrots, and parsnips) if I had to be nit picky, it seemed like some of the rice was under done, but it wasn't bad. My husband and my mother got one of the weekly dishes, a chicken pesto pasta dish he was very happy with it, and there was more than enough to fill him up and take home leftovers! My father got the fiesta chicken pasta and said he liked it quite a bit. Overall, it was worth the price, I feel.
