Los mejores restaurantes por los que merece la pena el viaje en Albert Lea

The pearl oysters were excellent and it would have been unfortunate if I had not ordered them. The pearls give a nice contrast in texture. I had the Maryland Benedict and was surprised that the eggs weren’t poached, or at least the egg yolk was cooked too long. Same with the scotch egg- the egg wasn’t runny like in the menu description. Having the sausage sit in a pool of honey-dijon ruined it. It’s as if the honey dijon was supposed to make up for the flavorless sausage. However, the other two dishes were great. The server was fantastic and I should’ve stuck with his recommendations. He may have been the bar tender too because he made amazing cocktails for our table. I’d be back for those cocktails.

We made reservations on Valentine's Day and selected a prix fixe option. Being vegetarian, this is a relatively new favorite. Our server, Thomas, was very attentive and made sure what we ordered was indeed vegetarian. The first delivered item was not. That was quickly corrected. Overall, the Stray Dog is definitely worth the drive.

Decently long wait even with reservations. Food and drinks were amazing and worth the price.

Pizzeria Lola was awesome. The Lady Zaza pizza was very good, along with the mushroom toast appetizer, followed up with ice cream and cookies. Our Waiter was excellent and can’t wait to go back.

Such a lovely dinner out! It was super busy so a tad slow, but it seemed the staff was pretty lean and they were all doing their best. The wine list is superb and everyone was incredibly knowledgeable! Super tasty food, and amazing selection of cheese and charcuterie boards. Will definitely be back!
