A decent dinner, good menu, nice armosphere, good service. If your going for a birthday they don't offer anything complimentary. They'll put fireworks candles in a dessert that you purchase. Big whoopty do!! Nothing makes you feel special here. For prices charged they should change their marketing to do something special for big occasions. You can go next door to Kona Grill and they'll take care of your celebration. Just sayin...

My wife and I have dined here multiple times for breakfast and brunch. The staff experience has been mixed at best. Long wait times, inconsistent food quality and attitude of hostesses really detract from the dining experience. The place is always busy on the weekends and unfortunately one gets the impression that management is therefore not motivated to improve the experience. Also, there appears to be a lot of staff turnover which may reflect on work environment. That being said when the food is good itâs great. The Benedict selection and variety is great.

We stopped in on a Saturday for dinner and they have happy hour until 6pm, so we opted to sit in the bar and enjoy some cheap eats and drinks to start. The tuna crisps looked devine and the steak tacos (2) were amazing. Both are sort of single serve apps. We shared some edamame. My husband ordered the miso glazed salmon for a meal - WOW! At first I was a little offput by the $34 price tag, but it did not disappoint. In fact, Iâd pay for the recipe, as it was probably the best salmon Iâve ever had. It came on a bed of stir fried grains and was FABULOUS- highly recommend!

We came here on a weekend with family. Our intentions were to have a few drinks at the bar, hang out and that's it, as we had already eaten. It wasn't very busy in here, so the manager seated us at a table. The waiter came over and was VERY rude. He said because we were not eating he wouldn't split the tab for us, and said we needed to order food if we were going to sit at HIS table. Yet after explaining it wasn't HIS table, he stood there with his notebook in hand like he was a cop writing us a ticket. So we ignored him. After an hour over socializing, getting a few more drinks he said he was done for the night and refused to transfer over his tab to another person. He said we HAD to close out with him, and REFUSED to get us anything further, even though at this point we now wanted to order food. We had to go to the bar and wait on ourselves which we did. I called a friend who visits here and he said that this waiter is known for his rudeness to people and said that many customers complain about him. What a joke.

I was very pleasantly surprised at by the quality of food and service at Maggies. We were there for a large (14) people breakfast gathering. The waitstaff handled us well and the food came in fairly short order. Consider this food (breakfast & lunch) Minnesota mild. A place you should absolutely try. I understand the pizzas are very good also.

My wife and I are starting to really like our regular visits. We come early to enjoy their small bar area....and many others do the same so get there at opening. The restaurant is nicely designed and is a great date night atmospheratmosphere. We had some wonderful lobster soup and other small plates. Service is impeccable! The drinks are creative and the old fashioned has there own "special sauce!"

Cov was alot of fun. The atmosphere is great as it is right on the lake. Outdoor seating was packed because it was a gorgeous day. We sat at the bar inside and with the open environment it was like sitting outside. We had a great bartender and the food was amazing. The portions are quite large -- I had the spicy chicken sandwich and I could only eat half. Definitely come for good food and the amazing views.

The four of us had a very positive experience recently at McCormick's. Two of us had the clam strip roll, which was delicious. The fries were cooked just right, and my request for no seasoning was done properly. My husband had the grouper sandwich and he enjoyed it. The fourth person had a burger. Our server was great and kept on top of keeping our water glasses full. My previous experience hadn't been so good in terms of my meal, so I'm happy to give a good review.
