Best Cozy Restaurants in Little Canada

Right away from entering the establishment the level of service was outstanding! I had dropped my girlfriend off at the the door and the staff knew right where she was. Pointed me in the right direction. While waiting for our table we had a drink at the bar & the staff there made great recommendations. Another hostess came to get us for our table. Once we were seated our server fully explained the menu for our first time being there. She was absolutely amazing! We took her recommendations for an appetizer and our steaks were cooked to perfection! The flavor profile was stunning! The level of service was absolutely outstanding! To end our evening experience we got to chat with Santa & Mrs Claus! When leaving the restaurant every staff member thanked us for coming in tonight. We look forward to dining again there! 

Three days later and we were still raving about our evening at Joan’s. The place has a casual elegance that’s a tough spot to hit. The owners are present and engaged in authentic hospitality. Their wine list is well paired with their exceptional food leaves us very happy and well sated. Whenever you want to feel special and celebrated, take yourself to Joan and Susan’s and leave filled in belly and spirit.

The two cocktails we had - the Barrel Aged Holiday Manhattan and the Barrel Aged Old Fashioned were both OUTSTANDING! I thoroughly enjoyed a bottle of Riesling and it was reasonably priced. Our appetizers and our meals were scrumptious! I had the pork chop and it was cooked to perfection! Ther chowder was also excellent! Our waitress was so friendly and attentive! We had a lovely evening. We always go to The Lake Elmo Inn at Christmas time because the decorations are positively exquisite! We had a WONDERFUL evening!!!

The ambience of this resturant was amazing! Not loud at all and very welcoming. Management personally came to our table to wish our guest a happy birthday with a gift. Highly recommend this place

My first time here. Went with three office mates and had a delightful afternoon. Drinks and food were delicious, service was prompt despite how busy they were. I had a delicious patty melt, though one of my table mates had mushroom toast that looked incredibly yummy. We ordered their pear blackberry cheesecake to share and it was that perfect level of not too sweet but still a great meal ender. Although the room was filled with holiday parties, you could still hear the conversation at your table
