Well now, if a Minnesotan or a visitor here really wants to keep a secret for a great place to eat, truthfully it is kept secret-done writing.Ahh hah. Caught you reading on. Well the first thing we do in Minnesota is we are nice. If we see something "bad", we're careful to share it with our friends or write about it. Wait for that great dining experience. Disregard the poor reviews over nothing nothing nothing.So don't you know on a first visit here found Amazing food service and atmosphere as well.That is all you need know. Okay stop reading!Here's your 1st sign...crowded at 6:45pm 2nd sign...special of the day sold out!3rd sign...delicious alternatives served asap!4th sign...interactive staff all at our table.5th sign...customers enjoying activities going on in there. Be nice and go see for yourself.Who am I? Retired Restaurant GM. The word "Da" in the name? Great story behind the name of the restaurant. Not what you think. Now stop in, better get there early. Enjoy.

After reading the reviews, we decided to try this place. I got the Walleye sandwich and it was delicious. The issue we ran into was, we wanted to sit on the patio because it's a beautiful Minnesota evening. Right as we received our food, a few ladies who I believe to be employees, sat down up wind of us and started smoking. One even mentioned that they were not supposed to be smoking out there. It really ruined the meal for us.

First time here! We decided to get off Hwy 169 and take the roads on the backside of Mille Lacs. We were able to get a table by the window for a view of the lake. We started off with a cold draft beer; J had a Blue Moon with an orange slice and I had a Michelob Light. They have a nice variety of menu items, with items you don't normally see like Walleye fingers, walleye sandwich and walleye dinner. But we came for the burgers. I ordered a thick bacon cheeseburger with Gouda. That is right, how many times do you see Gouda as an option. J ordered the Sweet Onion patty melt. The burgers come with kettle chips but we opted for a basket of fries with seasoned sour cream. These are the best burgers! Freshly made, not frozen burgers. And nice size patties. As the pictures shows, I ordered mine medium and that is what I got. J ordered his medium rare and that is what he got. I love my French fries to be crispy and these fit the bill. I highly recommend stopping and eating at Da Boathouse. We had way more food than we could eat so we asked for carry out boxes. This will not affect the star rating but I wish my carry out boxes were not plastic. The service was excellent! We will definitely be coming back.

We had a party with 8 adults and 2 kids and everything went well. The service was excellent. Most of us got the prime rib and it was delicious. We would definitely go there again if we're ever in the area.

Great family dinner at Da Boathouse!We ended up there on a whim after legit waiting half an hour at another restaurant for a waitress with four tables to acknowledge us and then tell us they were all out of broasted chicken...I won't name names...but I'm sure my uncle will!So! We had a great time. The server was the friendliest person. She had such a great attitude and was really great with the family antics. The menu has a fair amount to choose from and someone in the kitchen knows what they are doing. Not your normal 'small town' selections. I had (when in Rome) Walleye. Came with green beans (superb) choice of potato (mashed, pretty good a little dry) and lemon caper sauce (excellent)We also shared a pizza with was super hot and tasty. I'm going to be missing it. I don't get up to Isle very much in my adulthood, but next time I make the trip I will be dining at Da Boathouse

I had the chicken bacon ranch wrap and fries tonight. It was great!! So glad they are open for business. I like being able to walk into a place and get my order!! I know the owners/manager have done a ton of work while under quarantine.

Please note that this is now called Da Boathouse. We were looking for a restaurant that could take a large party at the last minute. Da Boathouse was near our resort so we gave it a try. The salad bar was fresh and the salad dressings tasted like they were house made. They also had home baked buns that were delicious. For our entrées we had a variety of opinions. I thought the walleye was great and my husband enjoyed the special (Prime rib). One family member had a chicken dish and was not as impressed. The tab was a little high but overall the food quality was good. Also, the kids liked the pool table, which kept them entertained when the adults relaxed.

Really great atmosphere and food. We had a couple people in our party that had never had Walley and they said their sandwiches were so fresh. The boneless wings were crunchy and nicely sauced. The wait staff was helpful but not intrusive.

Why don't Lake Milacs businesses want to make money? It's 4th of July week, sat on the patio, we had to go inside to get our drinks, you will only serve a limited menu on the patio, but full menu 5 feet away indoors? Ridiculous. No logic or care about customer service. Food is mediocre at best. Not surprised that the entire Milacs area is so oppressive and run down. Too bad

Refreshing bit of good food in an area not known for good food. I've eaten here several times, as I have a cabin in the area. My go to is the Boathouse Club. Really good sauce, quality slices of bacon between marbled rye with cold cuts - it's a hot sandwich. They have very good pasta dishes. My wife's favorite is the Tri Colored pasta. I took a bite, very good. Portions were good. Service was very good - same courteous fella behind the bar. The only negative I offer is they have a large Jinga style game for customers to play that is deafening and shocking when it falls over. I hate it. It forces me right out the door. Da Boathouse and Appledorns are my favorite restaurants in the area. Both are on the water.
