Reviews for The Woods in Brainerd, MN
So, went to dinner tonight here. To make it easy we sat at the bar. It wasn?t easy. It took over an hour to get our food. After... taking 20 minutes to get a drink. Literally, sitting at the bar. The giro strived to be mediocre. It didn?t make it there. Itwas one of the worst I have had. I had to reiterate the drink ordered in order to get the bill. And never got the soda ordered,and finally gave up. If I could give zero stars I would. It?s a great atmosphere which suffered from horrible service andmediocre ( or worse) food. Try Harpos for a better experience. Read more
One of my top 5 go to restaurants in the area. Service can be slow sometimes but they go out of their way to help you. They... have seasonal menu changes and my favorite item was on their winter menu. I told my server about the item and he said he'd seeif they could make it anyway, and they did! 10/10 service and food is great as well. Not to mention the mini drive in theatre,nice bar, and wedding venue. Highly recommend. Read more
The service was extremely slow. It took almost 20 minutes to get a drink, and the drinks came out in waves. 1 beer, 2 beers, 2... beers. The pour your own had only 2 pint beer glasses. Had to find our own menus. Many customers seated themselves and/orleft. For a place serving $20 burgers and other high dollar items, it is not good setup to succeed. Read more
HI videoed a wedding for Complete Weddings And Events. This venue is absolutely wonderful for a smaller wedding I believe they... had around 100 guest. The manager was absolutely wonderful to work with and they have a beautiful outdoor wedding venue. Ifyou?re getting married in this area definitely check them out. Read more
Fantastic place! B' Merri,1/4 mile off the Paul Bunyan trail. Ahi tuna appetizer. What a fantastic find. The owner Luke, and... his wife are good hosts. Our waiter Ryan, was a sweetheart, very knowledgeable and really knew the menu well. Ahi tunaappetizer. He took his time and explained all the amenities of the place including the drive-in movie theater, overnight stayaccommodations, catering and to go food options. The outdoor dining area has nice ambiance. Ahi tuna appetizer. The indoor isjust as nice. The name fits the decor. Ahi tuna appetizer.... I highly recommend this place. Oh and did I mention they have oneof the best ahi tuna appetizers? We went to Harpo's earlier and a gal told us about it and even showed us a picture of it. Shewas not exaggerating it was amazing! We will definitely be back for some other dinner menu options which look incredible as wellas a Thursday or Friday night drive-in movie theater. They cater right to your car window. Give it a try you will not bedisappointed. Read more
Had a wonderful birthday dinner here last night! Center cut sirloin with scallops, served with an asparagus and carrot vegetable... blend and a beautifully done baked potato. Also and equally important, a wonderful staff! Our server, Ryanne was very attentiveand Seth, the bartender even checked on how well our drinks were prepared. He made a very tasty dirty vodka martini and aspecialty old fashioned called the harvest old fashioned made with Woodford reserve and a lovely maple flavor. Delicious!Comfortable atmosphere. Everyone following covid19 protocols made for a very enjoyable evening. Thank you for making every partof our experience positive and pleasant! Read more
Have eaten here a few times. Food is ok, but with a little more attention could be really good. Scotch eggs were good, but $13... for 4 half eggs is expensive. They don?t use a whole egg to make them which seems silly considering how cheap eggs are. I?mpaying $3 for half an egg and some sausage. I got buffalo wings which I was expecting to be crispy given they were deep friedbut the were not. Read more
Not sure this is a fair assessment of the establishment. I attended a lunch meeting there recently. It was my first time there.... It appeared to be well-maintained but slightly older venue than other local options. The food was tasty and staff friendly. Read more
