Life on Restaurants on Lake Minnetonka
In addition to its many amenities, Lake Minnetonka is home to some of the most popular restaurants in the area, whether there they be fine dining, or casual. If you are looking for a place to eat that overlooks this beautiful lake, here are some options:
Maynards: Located in the small city of Excelsior, Maynards has been around for almost 20 years. This restaurant was built on the very same spot that a popular amusement park once stood in the early 1900’s. Today, it offers one of the best lake-view dining spots around, and its casual dining is sure to make any customer happy. This wonderful place is an attraction to both locals and visitors, and on any summer day it can be seen full of happy customers.
There are two dining areas, the main dining and the wharf. The main dining, located within the building, allows a fancy venue for visitors to eat. The area is highly decorated with old, historic looking pictures of Lake Minnetonka. This world class dining locale is sure to please its daily customers, as they are able to gain an overlook of the lake while they eat. Another dining area is the wharf. The wharf can be found outside the restaurant. It offers a bar and stage for music. Customers can also take their boats to visit as the restaurant has its own docking area. Additionally, tournaments can be held along the beach as it contains several volleyball courts.
Parks, access and things to do
The Bayside Grille: The Bayside Grille is another restaurant on Lake Minnetonka’s shores in Excelsior that features dockside dining. Visitors can simply drive their boats up to the dock and dine as opposed to driving. While the novelty adds to the experience, it is the beautiful views of Lake Minnetonka that truly make this restaurant so special.
6Smith: This fancy restaurant serves seafood and steak, and offers a prime view of Lake Minnetonka. 6Smith has extremely high standards for its food quality and service. They will go above and beyond to provide visitors with an unforgettable experience. If you are looking for luxury dining mixed with a lakeside atmosphere, this is an ideal location.
