    Hash browns with cheese & onions (left) Cheese crusted NY Strip (right)

    Great food and excellent service at this cozy small-town supper club. Went on a Friday, but we both tried steaks instead of fish fry. My partner was very impressed with his cheese-crusted New York strip! Melt in your mouth goodness. I enjoyed the filet with grilled shrimp--delicious A+ The steaks were even tender as leftovers the following day! Definitely will return to Driftless Social.

    Checked out Driftless Social for brunch on Sunday. Had reservations- but there was plenty of room. We had martini's - mine was hazelnut flavor which was quite yummy and my friend had the caramel latte - it was good. But be forewarned very sweet. I had the tenderloin tips sizzler - which had plenty of tenderloin tips- I had it with scrambled eggs but best time I would do an over easy egg. I really enjoyed it. It also comes with onions and peppers, hash browns and fruit. A very filling meal. Service was good and would live to check out their dinner menu sometime.

    This was a stop while hanging out with friends in small town WI . It's in downtown with all the other places that serves food and has a bar area. It's a nice place and maybe the old school term as the yuppie spot in town that looks like the trendy people hang out at. The food I can't speak about but the manhattans and craft gin Ricky's were good with craft booze, not dive bar booze. The place was nice with exposed brick walls, an old space. The bartender was friendly and knowledgeable about the spirits and made awesome recommendations.

    Great meeting place in downtown Mount Horeb, it was hopping on a Saturday evening. Bright lighted sign out front but not a lot of fanfare. This place has been open for drinks for some time. Pretty extensive martini menu for the suburbs. Wines, beer, and a fun atmosphere. They have a popcorn machine in the corner with seasoning to dress up your basket. They don't serve meals yet but sounds like food service is coming.

    Omg, finally a great martini! How hard is it to give 1 or three olives.

We didn't get immediate seating, but for a Saturday at lunch time that makes sense. They did get us in about 25 minutes later which I didn't think was too crazy. In total we were there for 90 minutes. We were seated upstairs, so we all got to take the elevator up. That was fun. We were kind of seated in a corner booth behind a wall, so I feel like maybe we were forgotten about a little bit by our server. I also think he was the only one working upstairs, so he might have been a bit overwhelmed. But he was very nice and took care of all of our requests. All of our food was decently good. Three of us got the bbq bacon style burger, one got a salad, the kids got the Mac bites, and one of us got the brisket sandwich. I was happy to see that one of the side options was carrots and celery, and they were big pieces of veggies for the sides. Would I come back here again? It's certainly not out of the question. This is my first time visiting this area so I'm sure there are other places to try as well.

Between the four of us we ordered a burger, a salad, a bowl meal and a chicken sandwich. I had the Pesto Chicken sandwich with a side of tater tots (many other side choices to choose from). The sandwich was very tasty, even the roll itself, but the chicken was a bit chewy. The tots were awesome! Everyone enjoyed our lunch gathering. Our server was attentive and was happy to take a couple photos for us.

The weather was perfect, so the manager gave us a table in light shade. It was around 2, so it was warm enough for everyone. The ice tea, and beer were cool and delicious. Our first course, fried pickles and fried cajun fish bites. Crisp bites and juicy pickles......hot side sauces, just enough to keep me happy. Second course. generous crisp cold salads. Third course, we all had different ribs. My Maui Maui ribs, just as I thought, light and sweet and seasoned with a nice pop of hot green. Auntie ate almost all her half rack of dried rub ribs. Filled up, she took some home. I haven't asked my boyfriend about his sweet ribs, but let me guess how tasty they were. ( I meant his meal.) For dessert, we chose key lime pie and chocolate pecan pie, to go. Best birthday party ever. Thank you, Alice, and all who worked to make our meal perfect.....!

The Saturday special: baked tilapia in a bed of risotto and zucchini was delightful. The service was excellent. The only downside was the A/C. The dining room felt extremely cold at 4pm.

    We came here on a Friday for fish fry, and arrived shortly after they opened. Good thing, because…read morethey filled up very quickly and we hadn't had a reservation. It was the first weekend they had their patio open to dining, so we naturally chose a spot outside -- in the shade, it was a bit much in the unabated sun. I thought we'd have a river view, but it was hidden behind some trees and a few cabins. Oh well. Still a nice outdoor spot away from the city. We were warned that there was a party of like 20 people coming in shortly to the patio, but we did not notice and interruption in our service as the gang flowed in. I will never love the ability to smoke cigarettes on an outdoor patio, so maybe I should have sat inside, but still worth being outside despite the occasional irritation. To each their own. Our server was great, and was very patient with our slow proces of ordering drinks, appetizers, and the meal in relatively spaced out time periods. The Old Fashioneds were great, without too much of the muddle and soda and more emphasis on the booze -- still a Wisconsin Old Fashioned, though! I enjoyed the cheese curds and was very intrigued by their potato and cheddar crusted cod. I usually get the fried cod during a Friday Fish Fry, but this sounded somehow elevated. Alas, I didn't find it to provide any extra or new flavors, and there was nothing crispy about it. The breading was more like a mooshy exterior that didn't do a ton for the fish. The fish was cooked nicely, but the very high price was very much not warranted. I can get crispier and lower priced cod closer to home, so just can't justify the trip for the fish fry. But then there was dessert. I'm always looking to recreate a favorite (late) childhood dessert that involved brandy infused ice cream. I always ask at a Friday Fish Fry if they can make a Brandy Alexander that's thick enough you need a spoon. They claimed this to be the case, and they did not disappoint. This was a delicious Brandy Alexander and definitely worth a trip back. So, while I wasn't crazy about my overpriced, non-crispy fish fry, I still enjoyed myself and enjoyed my food... I'm glad we came and tried it out, and if you're looking for a nice supper club spot, I don't think you'll be disappointed.

The garlic bread is also super yummy. I ordered a filet mignon with asparagus and a side of onions and mushrooms. My bf ordered the 14oz steak. Unfortunately my steak was lacking flavor there was no seasoning at all. No salt or pepper here. My steak was extremely dry. I didnt enjoy it much. The asparagus was okay, again no salt or pepper here. My boyfriends steak tasted much better. The garlic mashed potatoes are also good. We ordered a bourbon old fashioned and it was super good.

My whole family had another wonderful dinner experience. It was packed, so it was a bit louder, but we didn't mind. We were distracted by all the food. The cheese curds were lightly breaded and fried perfectly. They even had a bit of a squeak. The haystacks were enjoyed even by my family who didn't like onions. The prize app were the pork bellies. Tender, meaty, and covered with a sweet tangy bourbon glaze. I could've eaten those as an entree! My filet was a perfect med-rare. Tender with just the right amount of char. The ribeye was prepared with the same tender perfection as well. My son, who lives in Chicago, said his steak rivaled those of the steakhouses in Windy City. He really enjoyed his filet. The scallops were seared to perfection, and they were nestled in a bed of soft, warm, creamy risotto. And I mean CREAMY. It's the way they should be made. HPSH doesn't skimp either on the number of scallops; we had to box up the rest. We didn't have room for dessert, but we did box some up for later.....and they tasted great. Can't wait til our next visit to High Point!
