Best Date Night Restaurants in Excelsior

This was a Christmas celebration dinner, our aunt and uncle were very impressed with the ambience, service and food. The restaurant was very crowded, but not too noisy. The pork chops were tender and delicious. A very generous serving. The shrimp and scallop pasta was also generous, fresh and lemon-y. The popovers were a perfect first course. The steak salad dish was prepared rare and perfect. The walleye taco bowl had the right amount of spice, sauce and veg. We ordered the bread pudding to share, it was massive, the 4 of us tried but could not finish it. Hazelwood does not disappoint, we can count on it for a warm, laid back, delicious, attentive experience. Highly recommend

Server was excellent as was the food Have been there many times and will be back.

No mocktail menu or ingredients to make one; although they cobbled something together. It was ok, but it didn't taste like a rhubarb mojita. The Ceasar salad with chicken tasted good. My friend has the Italian Chopped salad and declared it delicious. There was bread left over, but the server didn't offer to box it up.She seemed offended when I asked her to box the remainder of my salad. The atmosphere was hard to judge because there were less than 20 people in the restaurant. I would go again when it is busier, like the dinner hour.

Beautiful ambiance on Lake Minnetonka, especially if you get a table near the window. Generous portions, I had the pork chop which was done to perfection. Walleye dinner always a favorite and very tasty!

We enjoyed a peaceful happy hour with wonderful staff.
