Haven 55

"Haven 55 is a hidden gem. We have been regularly dining at this establishment for the last 4 years and it is extremely consistent in both food and service. We have never been disappointed and will continue to dine here. Their weekly specials are award winning and as good as any five star restaurant would serve. I highly recommend this establishment for regular dining or special occasions."

"Beautiful view at this secret little Hideaway place! There's a big river with some Falls and various wildlife that is so lovely to enjoy while you're eating. Have only been for lunch so far and had the salmon sandwich, salad, french fries, fried green beans and creme brulee. All were very good. Servers are nice. Inside is a very plain Decor but it's worth it for all the windows with the lovely view outside!"

"I will Focus on the positive side. We had a 16 oz Ribeye for New Year’s Eve Dinner. It was a tasty steak, not up to Ruth Chris standards but very good. The twice baked potato was good. The vanilla crème bru lee was fresh and delicious- the staff was outstanding and very helpful"

"Great burger! Our server was fantastic and what a view. I was surprised by the interior. I had heard so much about this place over the years that I expected a very nice, upscale atmosphere, it’s very plain and needs updating. With the view of the little falls and river and very good food it’s well worth getting off the beaten path and searching it down, just don’t expect too much atmosphere wise."

"Such a neat out of way spot to dine by the Elk River. There’s 2 restaurants here, same chef/kitchen. Haven 55 is casually formal, reservations are needed. The tavern is next door and more like a bar-the tavern has a wood fired pizza oven and they offer burgers and bar fare. Aside from the cool location, it leaves a few things to be desired. We ate on the tavern side; while the bartender was certainly nice, there’s nobody waiting on tables. There’s no hostess, and no one bussing tables. For the limited seating they have, a 3 top took up at 8 top table and a 4 top did the same thing. Then there were three 5 tops squeezed into tables sized for 2-3 people. You have to go up to the bar for drinks and to order food. There isn’t a clear line to wait in, you just belly up and hope she’ll get around to you. There’s no salt and pepper, napkins or condiments-you will have to get up and go ask for everything you need. That goes for the check too. After the 3 top at the large table left, we moved over to their table and their dirty dinner plates and beer bottles sat there until we left. The burger I had was decent, didn’t quite meet the edges of the bun, but it tasted good. The produce on the burger was perfect, especially the tomato and pickles. Fries were a little dark, but tasty-they had sat a minute, so not really hot or crispy. My friends had the pizza, see Natasha Kane’s review for that :). I also feel the place could use a good spring clean, the windows were just filthy with spider webs and gnat nests and it was the same for the patio on the haven 55 side. We poked our heads in to haven and every table needed bussing. So maybe they just need more staff? I’ll give them another try in a few months."
