Outrigger Restaurant & Lounge

Wow still I have taste in my mouth food was so tasty. I will start with before I decided to go to Outrigger restaurant normally I read reviews that wasn’t very helpful,which I can say from my personal experience. A lot of people was complaining about look of restaurant for me it is authentic and I like it. Food we started with appetizer which was pita bread with artichoke spinach dip my family love it. Main dish was scallops pasta, chicken Alfredo, pasta, and ribeyes. We was so happy when we tasted our food,who prepared our food is magician. Scallops in my pasta was prepared with a lot of love this pasta for sure is taking first place in USA with how tasty it is. All food was prepared great but for sure scallops pasta is my favorite ,people who preparing food doing great job!! Service was really nice,polite and friendly. Restaurant have parking lot I do recommend reservation. Everything was good,service is excellent food is great!Totally recommend!!!

Omg, I have no idea how this place couldn’t be solid 5 star. We usually come to Okoboji a couple weekends during the summer and I’m amazed we didn’t know this restaurant existed. From phone answering to the waitress, the staff was super pro and very well trained and genuinely kind. You can tell they take great pride in the guest experience. The food was absolutely amazing. The spinach artichoke dip was unreal…those pita chips were just amazing. The ranch was the best ranch we’ve ever had. AWESOME steaks, fantastic meal, perfect experience. 5-Star. What a class act…we’ll be back every summer!

Great for locals, long time caving owners and first timers. Chicken was crispy but a touch bland. Potatoes and asparagus were outstanding.

We stopped in the Outrigger restaurant on a Thursday evening without a reservation. The hostess was able to seat us right away. Our waitress Olivia greeted us right away and took our beverage and appetizer order. The menu has lots of seafood and other typical proteins..chicken, beef. Good side dish options also. I chose grilled salmon with mashed potatoes and the vegetable medley. The salmon was grilled to medium just how I like it. My wife had the Walleye with homemade sweet potato fries. She enjoyed both and gave them a thumbs up. Not everyone does sweet potato fries the way she likes them. Service was excellent. The staff worked like a team and gave everyone in the restaurant eyes on attention without intrusiveness. We will return to try desserts at another time.

What a delightful evening. Danny was a fantastic server and made for a fun and engaged evening. Food was delicious !!.

New owners make you feel like a VIP. Lamb chops excellent, balanced wine list, pro bartender. Grab a drink and look over the Lakes history on the walls, it’s like a mini museum! Nice supper club touches like bread and butter, fresh flowers. Tastiest deal? Broasted pork chop.

The best food and staff in the lakes area! The steak oscar and Rick special old fashioned can’t be beat. I highly recommend stopping in for a great meal, fantastic cocktail and top notch service!

Had an excellent bone in pork chop that was cooked and seasoned perfectly! Had fantastic service as well from my waiter Snow. Highly recommend this restaurant! Lots of other menu items I'd like to try in the future.
