Food was solid--my Tossed & Seared steak salad was tasty, and the Smokeshow burger is a must if you like bleu cheese and balsamic. The vibe was great for a modern bar, and the outdoor patio was super cute. Service was fine overall, though my friend's "large" walleye dinner came out as a small plate of walleye fingers, which seemed like a mix-up. All in all, good food + fun atmosphere = worth a visit.

Mozzarella sticks were bomb. My bfs food came out good he says (Parmesan Garlic boneless wings). My fries were seasoned good and fresh. Unfortunately, my chicken was overcooked :( barely ate it. It was $1 per tender tho so that was very nice. Bf got 20 pieces of his wings which was $22. Overall, meh. Don't hold your expectations too high when you come here.

We came in & were asked if we were there for the music. Our faces must have reflected confusion as…read morethat was followed by "Did you know there's music tonight?" We, in fact, did not know & answered such. We were seated immediately with a run down on the gent that would be taking the stage shortly & a run down on how the blue oyster came to be... because they grow blue oyster mushrooms. Speaking of, the blue oyster mushroom app is NOT to be missed. I'd come back for that alone. As a matter of fact, I tried to today on the way home but they're closed Sun. Service was friendly & leisurely. We both ordered cocktails & both agreed that we wouldn't again. $8 was a reasonable price & they did use decent liquor in them. They just weren't really our kind of drinks, a bit too sweet & colorful for our bitter tastebuds. As I mentioned, the mushroom app was FANTASTIC & I'd highly recommend it. I opted for the Cajun Pasta - very good, creamy, cheesy sauce - tho very Norwegian spice level. I'll call it Norw-ajun vs Cajun. The hubs had the fried rice. It was a solid dish. We were overly full with the 2 dishes and an app. We agreed that next time we would order the app & 1 dish to split, no cocktails - or at least not any off the featured menu. All in all, we found pricing reasonable, food to be tasty, drinks would be a hit for many & service good but not fast. Glad we found it!

Good food, easy downtown location on the second floor of a historic building. The appetizers we…read moreordered were delicious - Chicken Parmesan soup, Caesar salad, Moo Ping. The salmon was decent, if a little overcooked. Service was very friendly, but slow. I'm not sure if they're understaffed, but it definitely took some waiting to take orders & get us food. Would try again.

He's one of the best servers I've had in my dining experience, so ask for him when you go. I had the walleye tacos and my husband had the bison burger. We also got a Caesar salad and highly recommend any fries they offer- sweet potato and truffle fries were incredible- hot and crisp, just the right amount of seasoning. The kids both had cheeseburgers and everything was cooked perfect, fresh and seasoned well. (Hence we came back a second time.)

The first visit on this trip we ate outside on the deck. Great weather, great view. We ordered walleye fingers for the table, they were delicious. We also ordered the hummus plate and stuffed dill pickles. The hummus platter was great, especially if you're looking to eat something light to eat. The stuffed dill pickles were good, but not what we expected. On another day we ordered the caprese bites. They were awful. Frozen battered cheese warmed up and placed on top of a thin tomato slice and basil leaf. For entrees both days we ordered a walleye sandwich - good, walleye tacos - good, Black & bleu burger - good, Thai chillie chicken salad was ok. The service could be better. Both days our servers were frazzled, and we had to hear how overwhelmed they were. When asked a simple question earlier about seating, the restaurant manager answered very snappy. The view is great, and the food is ok.
