    We live in Duluth and frequently travel from the MSP airport. Hazelwood is our favorite post-flight weekend brunch location. The food, drinks, and serv9ce are consistently excellent. Keep up the great work. P.S. It's always a positive sign of a well-run restaurant when you see management pitching in alongside the hosts and servers.

    Our meal at Chianti Grill was wonderful. The ambiance was terrific, the food was wonderful and the service, Justin, was exceptional. Justin was very attentive, informative and listened to what we had to share. He also had a wonderful sense of humor. He made the outing that much more special. I would highly recommend the Chianti Grill in Burnsville for a great dining experience!
