Reviews for The Local 218 in Brainerd, MN
We went there for the bottomless bloody mary and mimosa bar and it was delicious. Friendly service and great food. We tried... the chicken and waffles and seafood po boy sandwich! Would highly recommend either one. If you are looking for somewhere to gofor Sunday brunch, this is the place! Read more
Upscale feel, with a very casual atmosphere. Lots of kids for a Friday night, and some very very loud tables as well. People... were having a good time. The prices reflect the effort to come off as high end, and the menu meets the expectation. Thepistachio Walleye was quite good, and the apps were too. Overall, a nice place to eat, though a little rambunctious for theprice point. Read more
I have been to the The Local 218 three times in the last 3 months. The first 2 times were exceptional! I ordered the scallop... appetizer on pea puree the first time I was there and it was amazing! I was back tonight for a ladies night and wanted somethinglight so I thought I would try that again. I expected to see the scallops on pea puree as pictured and was given scallops onrice with fried onions. It was nothing like described on the menu or how I had previously ordered. Very disappointing!

This is not our first time here, it has been great every time. Food is really good, service has always been good. The atmosphere... is ok?not our vibe, but ok. I just don?t like how open it is. But the food and service is super worth it! Read more
Good food. I had this tomato bisque that came with these little grilled cheese slices. The ahi tuna was also good, had these... little pickles at the bottom that added a good finish to the dish. Read more
My husband and I tried this place out for our anniversary. It was the best food we've had in this area EVER, starting with the... cocktails, right through dessert. We even got a special "happy anniversary" message written in Carmel sauce, which surprised usbecause I barely said it was our anniversary loud enough for our server to hear! Thank you to the chefs and servers for goingabove and beyond. It truly reaches your customers! Read more

All I wanted was to treat myself to an upscale meal and this place did exactly that! We went from restaurant to restaurant with... no such luck until we came here. Kelly was our server and she took the best care of us! Our food was fantastic and theenvironment was perfect. I was so impressed by the high quality of food and the diversity of the menu items. From now on,whenever I want a great experience, this is where I will come! Great job all around to the staff and owner for giving me what 2other towns couldn?t! Read more
