Lyric Kitchen · Bar

From the moment I stepped into Lyric Kitchen and Bar, conveniently nestled on the first floor of the Holiday Inn, I knew I was in for a treat. For those who prefer non-alcoholic beverages, their extensive mocktail list is a refreshing surprise. No more settling for just a soda! But what truly stood out to me was their comprehensive breakfast menu – a delightful assortment that caters to every palate. And if you're a coffee aficionado like myself, you'll definitely appreciate the rich and aromatic brews sourced from the Duluth Coffee Company. This establishment is a gem in Duluth and is not to be missed! Highly recommend!

Visiting and exploring Duluth on a cold day. Stopped in for a quick drink. Very pleasant bartender. She had good recommendations. Nice atmosphere. Menu looks fantastic. I had to take a picture of the restroom wallpaper, funny!

Food was exceptional. The salad portion was the biggest that I've literally ever seen, ever.
The flat bread was amazing.
All of it was amazing.
I'm not sure how busy it actually gets there but we went earlier in the supper period, around 4pm and we were the only ones in that waiters area so we had exceptional service as well.
Well rounded restaurant, 10/10 would recommend.

Place was busy both nights we ate here! Sat at the bar until our table was ready. The bar makes a great limon and sour! Really enjoyed them! Food was delicious. Had prime one night and walleye the next night. Both were great. Food came out in a timely manner for as busy as they were. The waitress both nights were great. Very attentive. Enjoyed the fact that we could have a great meal with out having to leave the hotel.

This restaurant is located in Duluth downtown, attached to a shopping center. We easily find some street parking across from the restaurant. The restaurant interior is simple and clean. Service very pleasant and attentive. For appetizers, we ordered amazing onion rings. Our martini was very good. We ordered Diablo bacon cheeseburger, power ball and oriental chicken salad. Their portion sizes are very generous.

Petra was great. So friend. The food is ALWAYS great here. Not sure why it’s not always full!! Best Tots and chicken fingers.

Super friendly server and the food was great! Walleye sandwich was delicious and so were the sweet potato fries. Had a good drink selection and a large menu

Onion Rings were very good! Fettucine Alfredo was the best he had ever had. My Prime Rib sandwich was okay. Kettle chips were pretty good. Server, Brian, however, was probably the best server we had ever experienced. He should be at a Michelin restaurant. Super attentive even though the restaurant was busy. Also, extremely personable and acted as if he truly cared about us, as if we were someone he had known forever instead of random strangers.

Went to the Lyric Kitchen • Bar tonight. Never Been There Actually. Definitely Recommend. I Had The Bbq Ribs And The Gouda Mac & Cheese. I’m A Bbq Person And I Find It Hard To Find Many Good Bbq Foods In The Twin port, And I Have Tried Manyyy Around The Area And Got To Say, It’s The Best In Town! if Your In Duluth MN Stop By At Lyric Kitchen • Bar, Best In Town But Don’t Take My Word, Let Your Taste Buds Do The Judging.

I stopped by between lunch and dinner and it was a very pleasant experience. The service was attentive. The manager of the restaurant was ensuring all aspects of the business were conducive to a pleasant experience for the customers. The food was delicious and I will be back to explore the rest of the menu.

Stopped back in today, ordered the chili and it came out drastically different today. Much better presentation.

Food was fantastic had beef power bowl very good little spicy but I like that. Cheesecake was good too. Definitely come back. We were in town for Bentleyville.

Absolutely loved our meal here. It was a nice quiet night. Food was excellent. Diablo burger for my husband and chicken Alfredo for me. Our server was Petra and she did an amazing job. And even better, she had amazing conversation to share. Thoroughly enjoyed and will definitely come back.

Visiting this place was probably the first time I've been in a group where it took us all at least 5 min to just get comfortable with the menu.

That being said, everything we ordered was great (except the Mac and Cheese Tator Tots. They were good, but lacked some flavor in my opinion). I had a Teriyaki bowl--the wuld rice was a bit odd, but the sauce was amazing and the veggies were cooked well. My boyfriend had the Cuban BBQ and it was massive and he ate every bite. The burger was a little lite on the side of fries, which were especially delicious which is why we noticed when they were gone so quickly.

All in all a great place.

Jane provided great service. Had a poor experience with a bartender the night prior but Jane earned that star back for Lyric. The balsamic garlic dressing was amazing, as were the Yukon Gold potatoes. Sirloin was cooked as requested but had a few unchewable fatty sections. Convenient location, prices are reasonable for the quality of food.

The jambalaya pasta is flavorful and has a good amount of spice. The lavender lemon drop martini is delicious. I was not a fan of the artichoke dip, which was too bland. I liked that the pasta comes with a side salad. The salad even comes with bread.
My server, Brandon, was very friendly and helpful.

Great place for breakfast & dinner with consistently delicious food! Jackie, our server, was very attentive and pleasant! Thank you for your wonderful service!😊

The waiter Brandon, was immaculate! Was quick with the drinks and food and was very kind. The strawberry short cake cocktail was my favourite! When I asked the host for some extra pop overs for my grandfather he had no hesitation in helping me out. Overall the experience was amazing! Will definitely recommend to anyone and will come back again!

This beautiful and elegant looking restaurant is located in the beautiful heart of downtown, Duluth, Minnesota. You can’t miss the hustle and bustle of Superior street but on a big wall out front of the Holiday Center you can read in big letter “The Lyric.” My wife and I were stopping here to eat because it was just so conveniently close to our daughters dance studio “Just for Kix.” Now if you are at all familiar with the Duluth location you know this was once another grand restaurant called “Porters” before it was closed in May of 2017 and soon went under a complete overhaul, gutted, brand new light, kitchen, and bar put into its place and I can tell you the new look is so grand you won’t forget it. You absolutely feel welcomed by the wonderful staff who work here, we were at a high top table near the bar, as we sat here we got the feeling we were probably under dressed for this amazing restaurant. The menu was vast selection classic Italian dishes from shrimp scampi to chicken Marsala. My wife went with the Honey Sriracha Salmon, and I went with the chicken Caesar Salad. Both items on the menu were wonderful and came out relatively quick which was great because not soon after we had to leave to go pick up are little girl from Dance Class. Our server was very kind, made recommendations for both appetizers and and drinks, and even though we didn’t get anything other then our main meal we were very delighted and are thinking of coming here sometime for breakfast when we are in town next. My wife and I both agree that are experience was great and know when you visit here you will not be disappointed. Take my word for it, it’s a place you can really take in, relax, and enjoy the view. That’s all for now, talk to you guys later and Lyric…..well….let’s just say, we will be back. #schroyerfamilydaily #family #arrenschroyer #sxhroyerfamily #duluthmn #cassieschroyer #lyrickitchen #ceasarsalad #salmon #food #foodie #greatplace #service

We had the best dinner experience. Brian was amazing. He suggested so many wonderful choices and we loved them all. Definitely will be back the next time we are in Duluth! (Onion rings, tots, chicken fingers and patty melt) all amazing.

Let me just say after being out all night in duluth...we were staying here and went to the lyric bar. Brandon was helping us....I review tons of places every year...and Brandon was the best service we had before the pandemic started. Give this man a raise and get rid of the grapefruit mojito...it sucks and everyone sends it back according to the bar. Thanks Brandon for a great time.
