D Michael B’s Resort Bar & Grill

Stopped in for a drink after a long day, had only appetizers, but they were delicious! Their fries are amazing

Alright, the food was good. Nothing out of the ordinary spectacular, but the service was wonderful. I had a horrible cough for months and after our meal I was just telling my husband how defeated I felt. I was so tired of coughing. Our waitress, Martha, came over with a cup of hot teal with lemon and honey for me. I wanted to cry. She cared enough to think of what would help me feel better about something that was unrelated to our meal or experience there. She went out of her way to make me feel taken care of. It probably seemed so small to her, but it made a big impact on me. I wish I would’ve hugged her before we left and told her how much I appreciated that simple cup of tea. Thank you, Martha!

Went there with my family before a movie. Waitress was not thrilled about her job and it showed. A couple people thought their food was okay. Most was below average.

Our family was visiting from far away and found ourselves shopping at the outlet mall and were ready for some lunch. This place was very close by and had a wide selection on the menu that can accommodate vegetarians and gluten-​free eaters. All five of us were very satisfied with our meals, which were tasty and filling. Ihad the chicken fajita, which unlike every other version I’ve had, lacked rice. But then again, this is not a Mexican restaurant. The service was swift (although it was just after the usual lunch hour) and very pleasant.

We’ve eaten her before and were happy with the food that we’ve had. We stopped in last night and didn’t have the same experience. I had the reuben sandwich with steamed vegetables on the side. The sauce on my sandwich was extremely sweet, like someone had put sugar on it. Not what I was expecting from a tangy reuben sandwich. The veggies tasted like they just came from the freezer and were heated up. My wife had the chicken paninni sandwich with the house fries. The sandwich and the fries were both tasteless. It will be awhile before we come back. Very disappointed.

Went here a few weeks ago with my wife, son and mother-​in-​law. The restaurant made me feel in I walked into a clubhouse at a ski resort. The fireplace and mostly hard wood décor made the atmosphere very comfortable and inviting. The food was hot and very delicious. The portions were very generous, with plenty to take home in a doggie bag. The only down side to the night, was the couple sitting at the bar. The woman only took her eyes off our table for about 3 minutes of the entire time we were there. Of course that had nothing to do with the restaurant itself. Will definitely go back. This is a great place for the family or a cozy place for date night.

Could have silverware on the table. Never took any dishes until we were headed out the door. Employees talked about Snapchat right next to us. They don’t have a survey on their system. Food wasn’t great. Almost cold. No host to greet people as they walked in. Most of this is for managerial staff it they think it’s helpful.

My husband and I were staying in a hotel nearby and we wanted something in walking distance. We were seated immediately. The restaurant had a nice atmosphere and was clean.
I ordered the avocado turkey burger with steamed veggies and my husband ordered a turkey melt with the house fries. My meal was amazing with huge portions. As I was getting full I had to decide what to stop eating, as it was all so good. My husband loved his meal as well and the fries were so addictive.
The price was very reasonable, especially for the quality and amount of food.
The only not-​so-​phenomenal aspect was our waitress. She was fine and took care of our drinks as needed, but wasn’t the most personable. I don’t blame her, as it was later in the evening and she was probably exhausted, but it did bring down the overall experience a little.

Over priced crappy service. Not crowded. But took along time to get food. Or even to be waited on.

After the stores close, you’re bound to be hungry! Fortunately this restaurant is open late. I was pleasantly surprised by the food — homemade sauces and some creative dishes. Casual atmosphere and good service. I would definitely go back the next time I’m in the area.

The food here is wonderful. I highly recommend this restaurant. The staff is great, however Lauren is absolutely a fabulous server!!!

Stopped here before heading over to the outlet mall and was pleasantly surprised. The house fries were fantastic along with the dipping sauce for the fries. Service was friendly and attentive. The décor is fun and the restaurant is clean. Would definitely stop in again the next time I came out this way.

I dined here last night with a large group of family, including 4 little kids. Everyone enjoyed their food and we all agreed on how reasonably priced everything was! The server was attentive and all food orders came out correctly. I love the northwoods décor and the menu had a great variety. I ordered the hot roast beef sandwich with mashed potatoes and gravy, YUM! I was very full and a couple of people had some food envy of my entrée ;) All in all, great service and great food. I would definitely come back!

My husband and I stopped in while on a weekend vacation as we stayed in a hotel across the parking lot. We LOVED our server. She was friendly, helpful and attentive. We started with an order of their house fries, they were DELICIOUS! We had a few house drinks, the trash-​can, hook, line and sinker. They were all VERY good and reasonably priced. We then order their mac and cheese, also VERY GOOD. We had an appetizer, the mac and cheese, and 7 drinks and spent less than $ 100 after tip.

What did we like best? The food, the ambiance/​décor or the service? We loved everything about this place! If we lived nearby, we’d be here a lot. Bartender, Charity, was very friendly and quick to tell us all the great specials of the day. This was an awesome little find in our way from the cities to St. Cloud.

The food is all right, the sauces are scratch made but lack flavor. Wait staff if slow but pleasant. Could see how they would easily get overwhelmed with large crowds.

Food is good waitstaff is good but definitely depends on how busy they are.

Great place! Good food! We had great service also. Nice décor made you feel up north at a lodge in the woods!
Thanks!

Anytime I am in the area I always make it a point to stop here. They have a pretty good selection on the menu, but I can never get away from the ribs. I have had them numerous times over the years and they are ALWAYS fall of the bone and a great value. The best ribs by far that I have found in the north.
One other item that always goes well is the beer cheese soup, probably not the healthiest option on the menu, but if looking for the splurge– well worth it.

We only ate here because it was close to the outlet mall and the first place we saw. Not very welcoming. The waitresses need more pep. And it’s a Sunday game day. They all had their Viking jerseys on with the game on almost every TV on. You’d think they’d have a spring in their step. Or maybe it was cause they were losing?
As far as the service, it’s lacking. Not one smile. I asked for iced tea. I guess they only come sweetened. I put ONE pack of sweet n low and when I sipped it, it was like someone dumped simple syrup in it. BLECH! I asked if the tea was sweetened. She said «its plain tea». Um, it was a yes or no question. Then she proceeds to tell me that she’ll bring me another but tells me «don’t put a sugar packet in there». UM. OK?
Did I get the second tea? No. I finally flagged her down and said cancel the tea, just bring me WATER.
I got the asian chicken (grilled) salad. Not bad. The chicken smelled weird. Not so much the meat itself, but the seared sections. I don’t know what they did to it but it wasnt seasoned at all.
I also tried the chicken and dumplings soup. PASS. It was bland chicken broth with cut up carrots, a few potatoes, and tiny dumplings.
I tasted the chicken pot pie and it was good. HUGE portion, not so huge in flavor. The best part was the puff pastry crust.
My friend had the buffalo wrap. She said it was just OK. My other friend had the sliders. It was the thinnest, hardest, burger she ever ate. It was like a thin, dry, puck.
Now, in regards to the chicken. It appeared to be the same type of chicken in all the dishes. The soup, pot pie, salad, and wrap all looked like the same frozen meat just dressed differently. They were all bland and rubbery.
If I knew there was a perkins right behind the building, we would’ve eaten there. I don’t know if it would’ve been any better. But this place SUCKED!
The décor is like a woodsy cabin. The huge moose head was pretty neat.
I won’t eat here again now that I saw that there are 2 other options in the same parking lot.
