What People Are Saying About Kozlak's Royal Oak Restaurant

In Short – Flowers are everywhere--they even burst out from what looks like an aquarium that sits in the center of the salad bar. Add etched glass windows, garden seating, multicolored lights and you have one of the most romantic restaurants in the Twin Cities. Food is classic American steak-and seafood; the Salmon Royal Oak--salmon stuffed with shrimp--is a house special. Kozlak's older diners appreciate the chance to doll up a plate at the expansive salad bar.
Nice established elegant restaurant

Lunch has always been a favorite - recommend the Kozlak's salad with chicken. A nice place to have good conversation and great food.
Run, Don't Walk Away!

I made what I thought were "coveted" reservations for the Mother's Day brunch. I believe the menu is the same as would be served on any Sunday, but with the addition of a holiday, the price of the meal was increased. After reading several reviews, I felt confident that the buffet would be tasteful, well cooked, and provide ample selection to warrant the price.
I would liken the experience to buying a sump pump during a state-wide flood. We paid a premium for the necessity of taking mom out to dinner. The meal itself was horrendous. The desserts were unrecognizable and inedible. The mimosas were $7.50 and made with cheap champagne. Utterly tasteless. The salad bar consisted of iceberg lettuce, shredded cheese, black olives, cherry tomatoes, and dressings. No meats, no beans, no mixed greens. The "hot" buffet should have been called the "luke-warm" buffet. Nothing was served above room temperature. I actually cried after my mom started to eat her meal, realizing just how awful it was and how much money I was going to have to shell out for one of the worst meals of my life.
The service was non-existent. We had to flag down our waitress several times to get our bill. We wanted to get out of there as fast as possible. I would never recommend this restaurant!!!!! Unless you want to be overcharged for something you could order at a Perkins or Country Kitchen, don't go!
- Pros: Ample Parking
- Cons: Food, Service, Ambiance, Wait Staff, basically everything

Delightful experience. The staff were polite and friendly. The food was very good and the music entertaining. A very nice way to spend a late Sunday morning.
