The Dakota

We've been planning to eat here for some time after reading the reviews and being told by friends how good the food is, but we'd heard that it's always crowded for dinner. It wasn't until a few weeks ago that we finally had a good opportunity to stop for dinner on our way home one Saturday afternoon. We arrived early, a little after 4 PM, so parking wasn't a problem. The restaurant was not very busy then, so there was plenty of empty booths and tables available. We were seated immediately and provided with menus. After 10 minutes of reading the menu, our server came by and took our orders. We both ordered a half-pound Dakota burger (cooked medium) with an order of sweet fries and beverages. Our food was served up hot less than 20 minutes later. Our burgers were both cooked to a perfect "me

Went on Valentine's Day, we saw the limited Valentine's menu prior to making the reservations ,we were fine with it had selections that we would enjoy. Tried to get 6:30 reservations but was told they were booked at that time so we took 7 pm. Got there dinning room was empty,bar had many snowmobilers. When we were going to be seated the Hostess made us aware of the limited menu and said many people left because they were not aware of the menu being limited. Our waitress comes to the table tells us FYI there was no lobster, ( which was included in 2 -3 ofselections on the menu.

We visited The Dakota, Saturday, 12/20/25. We had Marijane as our server. The atmosphere was pleasant and a nice relief after finishing up holiday shopping. We were greeted with a pleasant server who was on point from start to finish. Our food was wonderful, from time, temperature to taste! The entire experience was excellent and will be returning. I highly recommend The Dakota and request Marijane if possible. Although reservations were not required, I suggest them as it got quite busy.
