Cheese curd with no cheese. Cheese curd, more like bread curd.

Worst cheese curds I have ever had in my life. No cheese in them, they were just bread curds. Also all of our food was cold. Not worth the price.

The best shots.

Came up to castle rock for my buddies bachelor party. Great time at the turtle. The bartenders at the outdoor bar were amazing. Good food and drinks were great. Recommend the bacardi buckets. Loved it so much we got turtle tattoos. Turtle Boys For Life!!!

Kids enjoying the playset

The wings, drinks and atmosphere were great. The rest of the food - meh (specifically the salad: wilted spring mix with black pieces, I won't be making that mistake again). We were equally bummed with the fries and onion rings, I think they used to be beer battered and deliciously crispy several years back. Will we be back though? yes.. the kids loved the playset which was the perfect distraction while the adults enjoyed some drinks.

It's a lake bar. ..nothing fancy, just comfortable. Friendly to tourists, yet the locals hang there as well.

Slow and rude service followed by a long wait for burnt food. Not worth the time or money. I'd recommend another lake establishment.

Sitting directly on Castle Rock Lake, it is a beautiful place to eat, watch the boats and look at the water.

Aldo's serves one of the most amazing breakfast buffets! The first thing I noticed was the coffee…read moreand they nailed it, a good cup of coffee. When it comes to breakfast, I like mine simple and basic. Scrambled eggs, hash browns, sausage, bacon, English muffin or toast. There may be other offerings, but this is my go to/comfort zone. I at first wasn't going to get the buffet, but when I noticed how they made sure the offerings were always fresh and not just sitting on a warmers, I decided to give it a try. Everything was hot and fresh! The scrambled eggs were not lifeless and flat, for lack of better words they were fluffy. The hash browns were amazing too. I'm going to skip over to the breakfast sausages and bacon. Truly Amazing, the best I've ever had. I must admit that I did return to the buffet for an additional serving of both. It took much self control not to keep returning and continue grazing on sausage links and bacon. I would highly recommend the breakfast buffet and wish you luck on portion control.

Utterly fantastic food. While the restaurant caters to resort guests, it is possible for locals…read moreand visitors to get a reservation. We chose 5:00 on a Friday thinking they wouldn't be too busy yet, and there were plenty of tables available. My wife and I had the same thing, a glass of Malbec, the chopped salads, the pork shank with mashed potatoes and crispy Brussels sprouts, and the cast iron cookie with ice cream. Everything was delicious, and very plentiful. Service too was outstanding. Absolutely the finest restaurant in the Wisconsin Rapids area. We enjoy The Dirty Oar and the supper clubs, but Aldo's food is far superior.
