    Prime rib perfect - the au jus is thick and smothered on a huge cut. The add on scallops were just ok - slightly overdone and the side salad was boring as well as the wild rice blend but the prime rib - the reason for going that night was the star. Nothing fancy inside - just your regular small town, out of town, up north supper club. But the food is good and the service decent. This is where we usually go while up at the cabin or farm if we don't feel like traveling to Hayward.

    Ummmm, NO fresh water fish here. Help, Robert Irvine!!

    Yelp directions are not accurate. Hours should be listed. Never did find it but it wasn't opening for 3 hours anyway. not traveler friendly

    My family goes to Hayward each July 4, and while we have our favorites in town to eat at each…read moresummer, I always like to try something new. So my family asked me to pick a new-to-us spot. I chose The Boulevard after looking at the reviews. But overall, it was a meh experience unfortunately. I got a reservation for our large family group, and our table was waiting for us when we arrived. Besides us there were just a few more parties dining in. But while we were seated quickly, out experience then went downhill. The biggest problem: We had to wait nearly 90 minutes to get our entrees. We had to ask a few times what the hold-up was, and the owner (I think) ended up providing free desserts for the table to compensate. This helped, but still ... 90 minutes. And our entrees were a bit hit or miss. I got the shrimp alfredo, which didn't have much flavor. A couple of our other entrees were cold. My husband's pork chop was delicious, though, he said. It overall felt like The Boulevard didn't know what it wanted to be -- either more high-end with its entrees and prices or casual. I would be interested in trying it again, but hopefully our dinner won't take as long as it did on our first visit.

    As I scan previous reviews-like the one from 2 years ago, the experience my Wife and I had was the…read moresame. Our table had a nice greeting card to make you feel welcome and appreciated, but it went down hill from there. We got our drinks quickly, placed our dinner orders-we both tried the "Nut Crusted Walleye, thinking we should try what you'd think was a Northern Wisconsin "specialty. Mind you, the price is $38 per dinner, so you'd expect the food quality to match the price-NO WAY. First-the owner misrepresents what comes out of his Kitchen by using Stock Photos you buy for advertising. I'll get back to the food quality in a bit. We got our salads quickly-probably because our Server plated them, but they came with our salad dressings in packets you get at places where the menu is behind a fast food service counter. Honestly, this is insulting, lazy and cheap for the cost. We then waited 25 minutes after the salads to get our Entree's. They were not busy, nor understaffed and we were the only seated table in the entire place, everyone else was at the bar and there we about 10 people who had already been there, so they hadn't ordered before us. At the 20-minute mark for getting our food, I asked our server about our meals, nicely, she proceeded to lie to us that our orders came in AFTER several others and it would be a few more minutes. When our food arrived, it was ALL beige, and the fish was obviously low-grade Walleye with fishy-tasting blood line inherent in low-grade product. The Lonesome Pine in Deerwood, MN has a $36.00 Walleye dinner to die for. The only thing good on the plate were the baked potatoes, which we smothered in butter and our second experience that night of "squeeze tube delivered" Sour Cream. In summary, I see the owner takes offense to criticism. He never said boo to us, but he looked over at us more than a few times as he and his pack of Bar regulars yakked and looked over their shoulders at the "strangers" in their watering hole. Just me and the Wife, looking for new places in the area we thought we'd try. We came with normal expectations, set by how the place is advertised, and it's nothing of the kind. People vote with their dollars. The owner should understand it makes no difference if the patrons aren't your long-time crew and you'd think that it would be a chance to get out from behind the bar, walk over to our table and just say "Thanks for coming in-we hope to see you again" Our bill was $110.00 BEFORE tip for a server who lied to us. She must be related to the owner.

    It is a bit of a bittersweet story about my first Pine Ridge experience. My grandma grew up in this…read morearea, and this was her favorite place to get fried fish. She always talked about it and would eat here any time she was back in the area. I hoped to visit with her someday. She was supposed to go in July 2025 with some family, but was sick and not able to make the trip from her home in KC. Unfortunately she recently passed away, and our family gathered in Wisconsin for her memorial service. Pine Ridge was so gracious and accommodating and opened early for about 30 of us to visit and have grandma's favorite fried fish experience after we had her service. It was unbelievably good, and I now know why grandma loved coming to Pine Ridge all those years. Nothing better than being with family enjoying amazing food. The staff was so kind and accommodating, the restaurant was beautiful, and none of us left hungry. Until next time!

    We've been loyal customers of Pine Ridge for over 10 years, which makes this review especially…read moredisappointing to write. We only visit a few times a year, since Pine Ridge is a highlight of our vacation spot, which made this visit even harder to swallow. The restaurant changed ownership recently, and based on this visit, that change has not been for the better. Things started oddly: before we'd even ordered, the host came to collect our menus, asking if we already knew what we wanted. We said yes since we're regulars, but in hindsight, that was the start of the problem. We then waited over two hours for our entrees. Our waiter explained they were slammed with large parties in the front room, the same parties who'd been given our menus, and who ordered and were served before us. We flagged down the owner about the wait. He called my mother-in-law "love" and said, "well, we're a very popular restaurant." When we mentioned we'd been coming for a decade and never experienced this, he replied, "if it only happens once in 10 years, that's not bad," adding, "at least your food will be fresh." It wasn't. The au gratin potatoes are usually a generous, reliable side but they arrived as a single small spoonful, looking unappetizing. The owner's explanation: "it's just missing a little paprika." The prime rib and green beans were cold, and the pork chop was overcooked. When we raised these issues with him again, he claimed he'd already apologized. He hadn't and we reminded him our menus had gone to the large parties, who got their food first. We understand restaurants have bad nights. But the owner's lack of respect and rudeness is why we won't be returning. Others may have a fine experience but if anything goes wrong, don't expect anyone to make it right. It'll feel more like "you get what you get."
