My husband and I can recommend this place! Food was fresh and well prepared. The portions were sized just right. The prices were moderate. I had the Deconstructed Fish n Chips... fresh whitefish from Lake Superior pan seared, oriental style cole slaw, and potato wedges... delicious and light. My husband liked his Chicken Fettuccine quite a bit and probably would... More

This restaurant is located in a prime location, one block down from the lift bridge. It offers outdoor seating on a wood deck in the summer but also wrap around windows for the inside diners. It does not overllok the lake, but is still a fun view of canal park. The food is incredible! They use fresh ingredients and combine... More

We dropped into the LAKE AVENUE CAFE in the Dewitt Seitz building while in Duluth the other day, and I have to say, the food was fantastic. There were 8 of us, we all ordered something different and it was fun. The buffalo cuban was super delish! (could have used some chips in it though, not enough crunch) Even better... More

Lake Avenue has a great menu with some unexpected items - our meal was excellent as was the service.

We decided to hit the Lake Avenue Café for their brunch menu. Everyone ordered something different! Everything was excellent, from the basics eggs, homemade sausage, homemade potatoes, toast, to the special rib omelet, which was fantastic! Would definitely go back! The French Toast was the best ever, the apple topping etc. were all excellent!

Our waiter was great and very helpful! We did ask why BEETS seemed to be on every local menu - and he provided a great explanation ( local farmers growing some... More

menu describes chef crafted delicious and creative dishes. Execution falls way short. The elk meatballs were tough to cut through with a fork, de-constructed fish and chips were lacking in flavor, loaded mac and cheese was like penne pasta with a very light cream sauce, white truffle oil and bread crumbs (hardly worth the price), the frog legs were under...

Different , menu, food was good, not great. Wine is expensive, limited beer selection, waitress looked like she was going thru the motions. Wanted to be somewhere else? My local guests love this place but I would rather go to Fitger's.

While on a weekend getaway with friends in Duluth, my husband chose this restaurant for us to check out and try for dinner. WOW, we could not have found a better place! We were blown away by the variety on the menu and the unique pairings of ingredients for each dish. The majority of our conversation was discussing how flavorful... More
