Maynards

"Best restaurant in MN! Chicken Strips & the Waffle Fries are to die for! Views of the lake are amazing especially in the summertime on the patio!"

"Great food! Our server was good but he warned us that he normally bartends and it showed. He spent more time visiting than checking on tables. The atmosphere was unique! We were seated in the heated outdoor patio which was surprisingly enjoyable. Plenty of over head heat to make the space comfortable but the cold draft coming up though the floor left your feet cold. A rug would make this space all the more enjoyable. We must have been sitting near some regulars because I observed something I have never seen. Who allows their child to have their feet on a table in a restaurant and why in the world did the staff allow this. This is not your living room!"

"Maynards is pretty cool restaurant to dine in. Has nice view to lake Minnetonka. You may eat inside or outside. For outside you just find the table you like and waitress will find you to assist. We had great food. However avocado was not completely cooked. In addition waitress was pretty slow to bring back checkout receipt. In overall great experience and atmosphere."

"The waitstaff did a decent job covering all the bases being so busy. Even though it was a Wednesday, it was good to have a reservation. It would be nice if a reservation afforded a better table however. The table we got was at the front, right near the door. A horrible spot. The food was good and the variety of the menu is a positive. Parking is a mess, give yourself an extra 10 minutes."

"Limited menu outside, keep your expectations very low. The food is more like bar food out there. You go for the atmosphere to sit outside by the lake. Tables outside are first come first serve - we waited about 5-10 min keeping an eye out for tables to open up. Our server was exceptional and took great care of us. Once we were seated we felt “stalked” by the other patrons constantly cruising and watching us to see when we might be done eating. Still worth it - especially if you don’t get much lake time in this summer, it’s worth the drive."
