The Cheese Curds were absolutely fantastic, we killed 3 plates with no issue (there were 9 of us). Most people got the pan fried Walleye, i would say it's a specialty of the restaurant and NOONE WAS DISAPPOINTED!!! Our waitress forgot to bring out our salads but there was so much food no one even cared! Each dish came out perfectly hot and delicious. When you're in the North Woods you absolute have to stop here! They've got a great ambiance and the food was fantastic, stop in and enjoy the best meal you'll have all week!!

Everything else seemed to be normal be type food.

Checked this place out after hearing good things from a few neighbors. Came on a Monday night, but…read moreit was still moderately busy, which we felt was a good sign. Service was friendly and quick. Never waited too long for a drink or for food to come out. All in all, very pleased with the meal. Reuben was one of the best I can recall in recent years. Crispy bread, good corned beef, plenty of sauerkraut and dressing. And I found it interesting they added smoked gouda as well. Overall, excellent, excellent sandwich! One of our party members ordered the broasted chicken, which looked and smelled amazing. She said it was excellent. Great portion size and I may try that next time. Another had the bacon Gouda burger and said it was good but messy. And he wasnt the biggest fan of the garlic bread instead of a bun, but said it was still tasty. Messy, but tasty! Other than that, drinks were not bad and were comparably priced to other places in the area. We had brandy old fashioneds for the most part. Have had better but they were still good enough to have multiple! Soup of the day was beer cheese chicken chowder, which was light and flavorful and surprisingly good (I am not a beer cheese person usually but would have this again if given the chance). Fiesta poppers for the appetizer were quick to come out and a great start before entrees rolled out. No sitting and waiting around at all between courses. Overall, very good experience and we will be coming back again to try more of the menu!

The light fixture above the bar is stunningly made from a huge tree trunk and has to be seen to be understood but trust me. It is beautiful. The dining room is spacious and welcoming. Our waitress was right on the ball. Arrived to our table promptly, was attentive but gave us space and time to visit and decide. Eventually, she came back with a warning of an upcoming big party so we ordered right away then and our meals came out in perfect timing. The lobster bisque was a very tasty starter for me and was a nice side option for my friend. No chunks of lobster but the seasoning and taste was just right, so no need for salting. I had the Kimchee ribs special. Wow! So tender and juicy. They slid right off the bone, and the wild rice side with avocado was tasty. My daughter had a "spicy" chicken wrap that they happily modified to not be as spicy and she loved it. My friend tried the mushroom Swiss burger that her husband had the previous time and it did not disappoint. My other friend had the brisket sandwich. The meat was tasty but a little dry. Could have used a little more sauce or juice. HOWEVER, he said that the yummy coleslaw on top served as a perfect "moistener". Overall a delicious meal was had by all.

When we finally asked our server about it, she casually mentioned she'd "take a discount off" instead of comping the meal -- as if waiting nearly three hours for food was somehow acceptable. The lack of urgency, accountability, or even basic hospitality was astonishing. Riverstone clearly has no regard for their guests' time or experience. Save yourself the frustration and go literally anywhere else.

Fishing widgets and bait are available here and if actually did fish I'm sure I'd stick up when in the region.
