    Really good fish fry! Drinks are strong at a reasonable price. Definitely small town vibes. Service was great & they had live music.

    We were welcomed immediately. The place was decorated with cute 4th festivities. We ordered a dirty Shirley and a Captain and Coke. The waitresses, Avril and Becca, were very friendly and good at their jobs. The food came out hot and delicious. Three of us ordered: fried mushrooms, onion rings, a side salad, a cheeseburger, and these delicious pretzels.

    All in all, a great fish fry stop! We made reservations since we heard it gets busy. They had already run out of perch due to shortages, so that was a bummer. They also said the kitchen was backed up but it made sense with how much they were turning out. We were seated and we put in an order for some wings - fried perfectly and juicy. It took a while to get our drinks throughout the night, but our server was very friendly. We got the cod and shrimp at our table. Some of the best cod in the area! Seasoned well, crispy coating, and good sized. The meals also came with choice of potato, rye bread, tartar sauce and coleslaw. We will definitely be back for that cod. And hopefully the perch!

    I can't believe I'm writing a review for The Depot before Stephanie H.! She and her mom turned me on to this place and it has been our go to for Friday Fish Fry in Caledonia/Racine. Or, if you're sitting at our table (and many others), a Friday Fish Bake! That's right. The Depot is very well known for their delicious baked cod. Seasoned beautifully, served on a bed of arugula, and a side of red buttery potatoes, this dish brings a bit of sophistication to the neighborhood. There ain't a whole lot goin' on around here except for the train chugging along the tracks every 15 minutes or so, hence the Depot name. Also recommended is the panko breaded perch, macaroni & cheese and possibly one of the fish on special. But overall, that cod bake is the way to go. Every time I've gone, the place is packed with hungry seafood eaters and happy drinkers. I've only come on Friday nights though, so just base this review on that fact. I recommend reservations unless your ok with a 30+ minute wait.

The place is quite big, if you see a full parking lot, don't worry, between the large bar, restaurant area and patio, you will find a place to sit. We went for Taco Tuesday. All of the food is great! The quesadilla had a lot of cheese and chicken, his taco's were as full as you could get them. Just because it says Taco Tuesday does not mean they only serve tacos. They have a great selection of Mexican food on Tuesdays. It was hard for me to choose, but I finally decided on a quesadilla for $9.50 and added rice and beans for $1 each. My husband chose the taco place for $10. Sour cream is an extra $1, salsa $.75. Bailey our server was great, she was spot on. Every employee greeted you with a smile and a hello. It is a nice atmosphere here, very friendly. Upon leaving, there were a couple at the bar that said goodbye and to have a nice night and chatted with us for a little bit. I am thinking they are regulars, It is so nice to have people do that and you never saw them before. Anyway, while we were there someone ordered spaghetti and meatballs, that is something I want to get from there. I almost asked if I could get a picture. 3 good size meatballs. We will definitely be back. Side note, we always go out early to avoid crowds and wait times. We were there around 4:30ish.

    Trattoria di Carlo(TDC): Just south of Milwaukee, TDC opened in Oak Creek, WI nearly 25 years ago…read morein 2002. Founder Carlo Pedone utilized his grandmother's recipes that she brought from Sicily. 2021 saw the restaurant close, but after a brief hiatus, it was revived by new owner Frank Carini in 2023. Carini still uses all of Carlo's original recipes. My experiences with the restaurant go all the way back to high school as my parents are fans of TDC's pizza. I'm going to get it right out there, I am not. Not as a teen, nor on second chances as an adult, which is why I'm reviewing their gourmet lasagna instead. Carlo's recipe fills the lasagna with ricotta cheese and tops it with a beef meat sauce. All of this is also smothered in mozzarella cheese. Two observations (not necessarily complaints), the first is that the lasagna was not as "tall" or stacked as what I typically experience, being flatter instead. Second, I thought it was interesting that a large amount of the toppings were not actually on the lasagna but instead trailed it. I know this does not sound appetizing, but it reminded me of a snail and its trail of mucus (with the lasagna representing the snail and the trail of cheese/toppings being the mucus). Anyways, before you scold me for that unappetizing simile, the gourmet lasagna at TDC was tasty and is Doughboy approved . Only I would order a dessert drink to kick off the meal I had there with my family, but let's be real, it's better than an appetizer. TDC's version of a chocolate martini is made with Five Farms Irish Cream, Chocolate Liqueur, and vodka. There was also obviously a little chocolate sauce, which the menu description omitted (along with the brand of vodka). You could taste the alcohol, but I wouldn't say it was overly boozy. It was just about right for a martini (which is still a lot for a lightweight like me). With a sweet tooth like mine, it still beats any standard martini, even if it's not the best chocolate martini I've ever experienced. Shaken or stirred, this dessert martini is Doughboy approved . Additionally, I included pictures of the fried Mozzarella Sticks and Ricotta-cheese filled ravioli we had for appetizers. The Mozzarella sticks were crispy on the outside and stuffed with melty cheese on the inside (you should have seen the cheese pull, and I wasn't even trying), doughboy approved . The ravioli was just okay . For dessert, I did try a little of my dinning companions' massive chocolate cake slice. There's a creamy chocolate buttercream on top of the slice along with alternating layers throughout the slice. The cake itself was rich and moist, while the frosting was chocolatey and sweet. Chocolate shavings also decorate the top of the slice, which in addition to the visual appeal, add a pleasant crunch that contrasts nicely with the soft and creamy cake. Dessert was easily Doughboy approved Doughboy_Food_Reviews

The menu states a Chicago stuffed pizza and since I'm from Chicago I thought I would try it even though I'm a thin crust cracker fan tavern style pizza from Chicago. Most people people not from Chicago have this misconception that it's a thick crust and they are turned off and say it's pan pizza that has too much crust and I'm tired of correcting them. Yes it's cooked in a pan with a thin crust and high walls like a pie cooked upside down with the cheese and toppings on the bottom and topped with a thin crust or not but the pizza sauce/tomato purée on top. I ordered takeout with a friendly young woman and the restaurant was very nice as I walked around and probably the nicest in the area. My pizza was ready in about 30 minutes and it smelled amazing. I ordered a 12 in stuffed Chicago style pizza with sausage which could feed 4 regular people because it's packed with cheese and toppings/sauce like a pie vs a flat pizza. Halfway into two slices I was full with the meat sweats. The cheese pull was absolutely perfect just out of the oven. The sauce was tasty with a garlic flavor and not sweet which I prefer as an Italian American. The sausage was top quality with some zing. Overall as a chicogan who likes thin over stuffed pizza it was fuc%ing delicious. This is a really tasty pizza with quality ingredients so they hit this pizza out of the park today.
