"6Smith, perched on the shores of Lake Minnetonka, offers a modern American menu with a surf-and-turf bend: chimichurri hanger steak and tamarind-braised shortrib are served alongside delicate seafood dishes like miso-marinated seabass and seared scallops. The happy hour menu offers oysters on the half shell, calamari, crispy brick shrimp, and lobster sliders." - Eater Staff
"6Smith, another gem on the shores of Lake Minnetonka, offers a modern American menu with a subtle surf-and-turf bend: chimichurri hanger steak, tamarind-braised shortrib, and tenderloin tip salad are served alongside delicate seafood dishes like miso-marinated seabass and seared scallops. Broad umbrellas shade this deck (and the rooftop) from the summer sun." - Eater Staff
"Celebrate a special occasion with a view of Lake Minnetonka at 6Smith, which serves aged steaks and seafood prepared with flourishes like pickled fresno peppers. The “fat burger” might be tricky to eat, but it’s worth the effort, thanks to a plethora of toppings including bacon and onion jam, bacon, sharp cheddar fondue, and melty American cheese. Finish with the towering mocha mud pie, a sized-to-share combination of Oreo crust, walnuts, and mocha ice cream lavishly topped with hot fudge and caramel." - Stacy Brooks
"Lakeside happy hour is the best kind of happy hour. 6Smith in Wayzata has more than a few times to choose from: weekdays from 3 p.m. to 5:30 p.m., late nights Monday through Thursday, Saturdays until 5:30 p.m., or all day Sunday. Stop by for $5 tap beers, $9 for classic cocktails, and $10 for “good wine” (the rosé of the moment looks like a winner). Oysters on the half shell and $10 lobster sliders on the shores of Lake Minnetonka? Yes, please." - Alex Lodner, Eater Staff
"The lakeside views from the patios have made 6Smith a beloved Wayzata stop for a ideal summer dining. While drinking in the view, there’s also a stellar bar program with lovely wines, tap beers, and cocktails. The menu is abundant with something to please everyone from meat lovers to vegetarians." - Eater Staff
