Steak was textbook rare, lobster ravioli tasted homemade & the bread was a rich warm slightly sweet brioche dough. Pickled beets, ham salad, and French-dressing infused cheese spread on the salad bar ... I mean, come on. A delightful server & we sat in the "frank sinatra booth" ... definitely worth a visit.

I've never been, but my parents, on a road trip with my nephew were told to take cover because of a…read morenearby tornado. They were told about the County Line by a local, and they were welcomed with open arms by the owner. She could see how scared my 8 year old nephew was and whisked him away and introduced him to her dog Jake. He was quickly put at ease and after about an hour, the tornado had changed paths and it was safe to leave. I'm really not one to write reviews of places I haven't been, but I was really touched by this story and the kindness of the owner and I feel it's something that should be commended. I'd be glad to stop in, if I'm ever en route or in the area. It's nice to see there are some special people in the world! Thank You!!

Owned by Didier and Anne, who emigrated from Belgium, the Mini-Mart is built on their shared passion for community and entrepreneurship.

After quite a good dinner last Thursday night, we decided to have breakfast there on the way out of…read moretown next morning. We ordered the french toast and waited nearly 20 minutes for it. The place was nowhere near busy and nothing seemed out of place, but the wait just seemed to get longer and longer. Finally we had to bring it up to the waitress who then brought out the food as though it had been waiting there. The food was barely warm. We had to ask the waitress to warm the food for us, which is an uncomfortable thing to do. The food came back only slightly warmer. This place may be very good at night, but in the morning they have a lot of work to do. Very unfortunate to have such service after having a good dinner the night before.

I found this place through a search and we loved it so much we already planned a return visit! The staff were super friendly (and funny) and kept our drinks and bellies full. We ordered the nachos for our appetizer and while not traditional nachos, they were still good. For dinner we had the shrimp tacos and a cheeseburger. Both were really good and the sides of fries were well seasoned. We sat at the bar as it looked like rain, but did get to enjoy the view of the marina. I can't wait to visit in summer to enjoy the back patio with friends.

Shannon and Todd are serving up breakfast, lunch and dinner every single day!! You can choose to sit in the dining room or bar. The locals are eating and hanging out here and that's all I needed to know!! They have gaming, but more importantly they have the Wisconsin pull tabs. A fully stocked bar and ice cold beers are ready for your sipping pleasure. We stopped in on 3 different occasions during the weekend. What we ordered: *** homemade hand battered fresh cheese curds- these were the best curds I have ever eaten!! For breakfast the following day: ** 3 egg omelet with fresh ham, tomatoes and cheese with a side of bacon. ** Biscuits and gravy with an over easy egg. Our food was hot fresh, and delicious. This restaurant/bar is exactly how you picture a locals place to be. Everyone was friendly, welcoming and made us feel at home. We were sad to leave as we felt like we were leaving family. This is a must stop while in De Soto!!

I wish they came in different sizes and were homemade crust. Otherwise, basic toppings, expensive add-ons, and not many specialty pizzas. Meh. The jukebox in the bar area is soooo loud. It does not "fit" the crowd of old people out trying to visit. They kept coming out to the dining area complaining it was too loud in the other room. Despite the staff's back and forth, we were not greeted or waited on for 20 minutes. We could hear them BSing in the back, but I think they forgot they were at work. We kept closing the door between the bar and dining room and the staff walking in between constantly left it open. The owners need to "read the room" and adjust the jukebox accordingly. We shouldn't have to YELL over dinner. I wear hearing aids and couldn't hear a thing! Food is inconsistent and owner-after being complimented that the food had improved since they opened only argued that it's the same food they had when they opened, which it is not. Shut up and take the compliment!
