Our drink order got taken right away and the drinks came promptly. We tried the OG Fungo stuffed mushroom app and the duck tenders. The stuffed mushrooms were great and I'd order again. The duck tenders were forgettable. I ordered the pretzel pork schnitzel and my brother in law got the Thai steak. Portions were large and the entrees came out in a timely manner. Both were interesting concepts, different than standard menu options. The schnitzel was good, not great. The pretzel breading didn't really provide the flavor or texture boost I expected. The Thai steak was flavorful and a hit

What the heck this is a supper club on steroids. My son and I were able to be seating at the bar. He had the kids cheeseburger, I had side of Brussels, the beef tip appetizer, and the blue cheese wedge. Wow that wedge salad was amazing- the bacon was perfect, blue cheese great and it had a French dressing sauce as well. I have never had a wedge served that way and it was great. My son's cheeseburger was amazing.They use the left over meat from trimmings. Our server (perhaps owner I should have asked) said they don't want to be a burger place. Well I hear you but that kids burger was amazing. The beef tips were fantastic- great Dijon mustard sauce. It was a great meal! Crowd was up north Chicago style- but man the food is stellar. Make a reservation- this is a gem. I was enjoying it so much I forgot to take pictures!

After waiting an hour and 20 minutes for fish fry and a pizza, (food still has yet to arrive), the bartender advised that on a Friday, it's pretty normal to wait nearly two hours for a pizza. It's not nearly 10pm, it's empty and food is god knows where. I get it that this place is quintessential up north and has been here forever, but after waiting 30 minutes for a beer that was warm and wrong and now two hours for food, I'd recommend bringing snacks to quell the hunger while you enjoy the ambience. I hope it's good. If I'm still awake when it arrives. Two stars for the location.

Started with shared pasta salad and cheddar spread best eaten with bread sticks. Warm rye bread was an add on. We ordered the appetizer special - cheese sticks deep fried with marinara sauce. Would pass on it next time. Four adults and two children in the party. Adults had filet mignon, baby back ribs and two had fish fry. The steak was prepared perfectly and came with a baked potato. Ribs were good but they were not typical baby back as expected and came with a potato pancake with apple sauce. Fish fry was generous and served with cole slaw and baked potato. I spilt a wedge salad and it was delicious. Romaine lettuce split and loaded with blue cheese, tomato's, bacon and a blue cheese dressing. Kids had grilled cheese sandwich with fries, and the other had pasta with red sauce. Both meals were clean plate club. Our server was excellent. The meal was timed perfectly and we were kept informed as the night went on. Would definitely return. Recommend without any reservations.
