Delicious food, excellent service, quiet so we could talk, beautiful holiday decorations (loved the Nutcrackers)....we'll be back!

Have always been pleased with the food and cocktails at Hazelwood. The only thing I would comment about negatively is that my dish was $10 more than everybody else’s, but smaller than everybody else’s. Parmesan crusted walleye. All the food and appetizers were absolutely incredible though. The cocktails were as well. A perfect place to meet friends and expect to have good food and drink no matter what you order.

My wife and I did the Champagner Brunch at Baldamar on Nov. 23. It was fantastic; everything we hoped it would be. The wait staff was very well informed about the food and drink offerings, and provided us with valuable insight. The food was very good, though somewhat hit and miss. The Scallop and pasta dish was fantastic; we ordered it twice. The crab cake was more cake than crab. The calamari was very good, as was the lamb curry. The cocktails, and limitless champagne and wine, were great. They did not go cheap on their alcohol offerings. Bottom line, it was a memorable experience for our anniversary celebration, and well worth the expense.

Our server was upbeat and helped explain menu options and how to expect our plates to be served. The food was exceptional. The manager checked in several times to see how our evening was going. This was one of the best dining experiences we have had and I highly recommend it!

The vegan choice is poor; Please offer more choices with vegan protein ie; tofu (the bowl offered is not up to par) beans, quinoa etc. Crave is always my first choice for lunch with friends, but not after yesterday.
