This was my first time eating at Pickwick's, and I am not disappointed. I would consider this restaurant more on the fancy side than most restaurants, so plan accordingly with dress, hunger, and wallet contents. The food is a bit spendier here, but you are getting your money's worth. Between the bread, an appetizer if you choose to get one, a salad up typically get with your main course, and your main course, it would be surprising if you finished everything before the end of the night.
The food itself was phenomenal. I ordered the Vegetable Kabobs and loved the pasta and sauce that came with it. With my dinner, I ordered a mojito, which was a bit mintier than I would prefer, but delicious just the same.
Our table was also placed right next the widow that overlooked the lake. The view was almost the best part of the dinner.
Pickwick's is a restaurant that everyone should pick for their next meal! -

I was in town for a business trip and we decided to have dinner at Pickwick. The hostess seated us in the boiler room overlooking Lake Superior. Beautiful views.
I ordered the sausage platter to start. The sausage came on a bed of sauerkraut. There was a yellow mustard in the side and several types of cheese. The sausage was well cooked and the entire dish was tasty.
For the entree I decided on the sirloin. It was delivered perfectly seasoned and cooked. The entree came with steamed vegetables and I decided on the baked potato. Everything was cooked perfectly and I had no issues with the service.
Friday and Saturday there is a prime rib special that I highly recommend. The bar area is really nice and they feature live bands during the week. There are many local tap beers and domestics as well. -

We visited for lunch on a rainy Saturday and it provided a cozy booth, pleasant service and a great lunch. I had walleye and it was good, served as 3 small fillets. The sides were average. I would love to check it out on a sunny day and enjoy the lake view!

Amazing atmosphere. Live 70s music on a Thursday evening. Walleye entre was outstanding. Added a little blackened seasoning. Wine prices are very very good. I can't think of any reason I won't be back tomorrow night??!! Thanks for being that special place in Downtown DELUTH!! Also walking distance to Sheraton

Pickwick is one of those restaurants that we've always said we want to visit and then wind up skipping for one of our known favorites when we're in town. So this time through, we made it a point to get there. I'm glad I did.
First, for those of you who are not local, this is a really OLD restaurant. If you believe the back of the menu, Pickwick traces its origins back to 1888 and claims its est. date as 1914. But given that the blurb on the back of the menu ends with "but you can't believe everything people tell you. Just what's written on the back of a menu," it's your call about how much stock you place in that. At any rate, it feels like an old German restaurant where a woodsmith or a guy with an accordion just might stop by your table.
Second, these people really know how to cook beef. Man oh man. If you are a steak lover, go here. I had my once-a-year craving for something lighter so I chose the beet salad with the tenderloin on top. It was SUPER good. Like even though I didn't finish it, I took the rest home and ate it the next day even though I generally hate leftovers good. We also had the Pickwick Tidbits appetizer, which are basically beef tips cooked to temp, served with lovely grilled mushrooms and covered in bernaise sauce. Also, since clearly you need a boatload of carbs, they come with enormous pieces of grilled bread. Which are delicious. Which I totally ate completely. They should really just double the portion size, slap some veg on the plate and serve an entree version of this thing. Yum.
Third - the rest of the meal was totally fine. Service was fine. We had a lovely view of the lake and the Fitgers parking deck out of our window-side table view. But STEAK. I could feel my red cell count rising as I ate. It was delicious.
