Best Romantic Restaurants in Cottage Grove

We ate at the Afton House Inn Fine Dining, Dining Room. The staff is courteous and friendly. They were helpful and so kind. We just loved our server, Phillipe! The blackened Mahi Mahi was s bit dry, but we were told they may try a new recipe on the menu to remedy that so do ask if they have a new addition to try. Steak Diane is always good and something we have been back for numerous times! The green beans and potatoes were cooked to perfection as well! It was the perfect birthday celebration for my husband and a wonderful place to relax after the holiday. The festive decorations were still up so it looked so beautiful.

Excellent experience! Service was warm and friendly!! Lots of dishes that were easy for sharing, which was nice so we could try more of a variety and everything tasted delicious! The Baked Alaska is a must get item!

Mallards is our neighborhood restaurant in Inver Grove Heights. It’s our go to place for birthdays, anniversaries, etc. I can’t say enough about the food the service the ambience. We love it.

We had a great Christmas Eve lunch! The food was spot on. We had soups and salads that were very flavorful and more than plentiful. The service was spot on and the wine choices also had a reasonable variety, and very good. This place is certainly worth the drive down from the southeast metro. On one hand I hope nobody finds this gem, but on the other hand we want them to be successful so come check it out.
