Front Entrance
Derek B.

Welcome to 1977. The wood paneling, the oil lamp, the ambiance you would expect from a steakhouse that never let the 1970's out of their sight. Phenomenal steaks, loaded bake potatoes & homemade garlic ranch. Service with a smile and just the perfect amount of Northern Wisconsin charm. Definitely a great experience!!

Ice-cream dinner drink!

Went here on a whim for a birthday dinner and boy were we happy we did! Excellent ambience, service, and food! We order the chicken and the cheeseburger soups which were hot and delicious! Next we had our salad and this is one of the few places still in the valley to serve hot bacon dressing too! After being told so much about it i was glad to finally try it! We had cheese curds appetizers with home made ranch which was also amazing! Our server recommended after-all the owner has been snacking on em for decades (something we saw with our own eyes here too ) Our steaks were cooked perfectly too! We will definitely be back! Oh and can't forget the cherry desert!

Cheese Curds
Kyle V.

Stopped in because we were recommended to try it out for a good steak. We wanted an early dinner so we came right when they started seating dinner and we had a table instantly. This is an old building with a cool bar and you can tell this place is a blast from the past. It truly looks like it hasn't been updated in 40 years, but that's the vibe they are going for with this traditional "supper club". Our service was very quick and organized. She asked for our drink order but we never received a drink menu so she went and got one. That's when we noticed they had appetizers on the drink menu, which we also would have never seen. So we ordered some beers and cheese curds. The curds were delicious and she brought us their house made garlic sauce. For my meal, I got the porterhouse which included bread, a salad, soup, and a potato of my choice. The amount of food was incredible. The tomato bisque soup was hot and tasty. I wish my baked potato had more than just sour cream but that's all she offered. Overall, an interesting old building with pretty good food. The portions were massive for a reasonable price for a steakhouse.

There is a lot of history here

Solid steakhouse in the middle of downtown. Friends and family gather in this dark-paneled den for fine-dining. My steak was cooked perfectly, with just the right amount of sear, and it tasted great. Good cuts of beef, with a garden salad, and recognizable side-dishes ciled me up. I was too full for dessert.

I heard this place gave the cheddar cheese and was a nice little steak house. We called and made a reservation. We were seated on time and it was a nice little place. The service was good but a little slower. Our dinner was 2.5 hours long. The soup was very good and flavorful. The salad was poor with a lot of pieces that were bad. The onion rings on the steak were thin and good. The steak was okay. Not the best but not terrible. I would eat it again but I wouldn't rush back for it. Overall it was a decent experience.

Food was great! Our table had everything from steaks and seafood to prime rib. Drinks were perfect!…read moreI had an excellent dirty vodka martini, made correctly without my having to explain it to the bartender, and our table loved the Old Fashioneds. Service was top notch! The wait staff was attentive and polite, and I never had an empty water glass (my standard service test). The atmosphere is 1970s, and it's tired, tacky, and kind of dark. It seriously needs to be updated, unless you like that sort of thing. Then again, I sort of do. There are two other negatives: the prices they charge and the rules they enforce. It seems like there's a "Don't do this" or a "We won't do that" everywhere. Why would any business, especially a restaurant, put so many negatives in front of its customers? I just wanted to make a substitution on my plate, and the menu said right at the top that it wasn't allowed. Really? I probably would have spent more money on a different entrée, but the message put me off. As for the prices, this place is very expensive for what you get. There's no way their 8 oz filet mignon with a baked potato should cost $50. It's not that good. The best steak restaurant in Appleton is at least $10 less. They seem to know it, too, since they try to convince you that you're getting a good value and a better price per ounce. Again, really? I'd definitely say check it out if you've never been. Will I go back? Probably. I'm sure I'll be back at some point, most likely when someone I'm with wants to go there again. Enjoy!

The salad tasted as though it was prepped a few days in advanced and sat in the refrigerator without a cover. You know the taste, like an old fridge. We were a party of six and no one enjoyed their dinner. The place has an underlining mold damp smell. The atmosphere leaves a lot to be desired. It should be featured on Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares.

I was in Appleton for 4 days and 3 nights at a conference and staying at the Hilton across the street. I had seen Rye and talked myself out of going there on my first night. On night 2 I was fully committed to "treating myself" as I was traveling alone for work and just wanted a nice meal. My husband is a manager at a fine dining steakhouse in Scottsdale and I truly missed the "family" feeling that I get from sitting at his bar waiting for him to close up. The feeling of "I'm home". As soon as I started talking with Jonathan, he instantly recreated the feeling that I was missing from home and made me feel like a regular. After finishing my drink, I told him how much I appreciated his hospitality. Before saying my goodbyes, I briefly discussed going to another restaurant closer to the water on my last night in town so I could see the views before leaving. When the next day came and my conference ended, I walked out of my hotel and found myself walking in the opposite direction of the water and right into Rye. I ended up eating dinner, having a few drinks and even getting to know other regulars as Jonathan has such a welcoming aura everyone quickly becomes family. Having this kind of hospitality is a talent. It is not only special but almost impossible to accomplish in just one encounter. Traveling in an unfamiliar state can sometimes leave you feeling very much like a tourist, but Jonathan had an incredible ability to make me feel like a regular from the moment I sat down. He was welcoming, personable, attentive, and genuinely seemed to enjoy making sure that every individual at the fully seated bar had a great experience. Great food can bring you into a restaurant, but people like Jonathan are what make you remember it--and want to come back. Highly recommend!

Stepping into Rye in Appleton, WI, felt like entering a warm, glowing hideaway. The quiet hallway…read moreof the Copperleaf Boutique Hotel by Best Western opened into a dining room alive with texture: reclaimed wood walls, polished copper accents catching the light, and a tall, handsome bar gleaming at the entrance. The air held a faint aroma of roasted meats and spices, a subtle promise that dinner would be satisfying. We were led to our table, the soft hum of conversation and the clink of glassware creating a calm buzz around us. Michael, our server, appeared with a polite nod and offered Saratoga sparkling water. The first sip was airy and fine, the delicate bubbles dancing across the tongue--an understated luxury compared to the harsher fizz of more common sparkling waters. The bacon and cheddar risotto balls arrived still steaming, their golden crusts giving off a toasty aroma. As my fork broke through the crisp exterior, the interior oozed rich, creamy cheese, and the first bite delivered a satisfying contrast: crunchy shell, molten center, and a playful heat from the sriracha-laced cream sauce beneath. Next came the poached pear salad, a vibrant mix of greens topped with glistening fruit, ruby slices of pickled onion, and dark swirls of balsamic glaze. The first bite, however, was sharp and assertive--the onions and heavy drizzle of glaze overtook the gentle, floral sweetness of the pear, leaving the dish leaning hard into acidity. The pumpkin harvest tenderloin plate was a feast for the eyes: tender slices of pork laid over creamy risotto, punctuated with bright pumpkin purée and caramelized Brussels sprouts. The aroma was subtle, almost shy. Each bite revealed perfectly roasted, moist pork, but the flavor was muted, missing the seasoning or smokiness to match its visual promise. Dessert arrived like a small work of art: the date and fig carrot cake, topped with a scoop of cheesecake gelato and a sprinkle of honey graham crumbs. The gelato was cool and creamy, the crumbs giving a faint crunch, while the cake itself leaned more toward a fruit-spice profile than a true carrot cake. Its scent was lightly sweet, but the comforting warmth of cinnamon or nutmeg was barely there, leaving a sense of something missing. Overall Rye delivered a solid experience with wins for atmosphere and presentation and misses for flavor execution.

I Came Back to Appleton... Wisconsin Immediately Fed Me…read more There are many ways to kick off an HS Reunion weekend. Apparently, the correct Wisconsin way is cheese curds, a soft pretzel, beer cheese, mustard, and craft beer. One of my host~family sisters and longtime friends brought me to Stone Arch Brewpub shortly after I touched down in Appleton, and this was exactly the kind of welcome~back I needed. Let's talk about those cheese curds. Pillowy. Soft. Tender. Ridiculously good. I don't say this lightly, but these may be some of the best cheese curds I've ever eaten. Then came the pretzel~super buttery and incredibly soft~with Wisconsin beer cheese and mustard for dipping. At that point, the reunion could have ended and I would've considered the trip successful. But we weren't done. We worked our way through an assortment of craft beers spanning Hazy IPAs, West Coast IPAs, Sours and Gose~style beers. The atmosphere was cool, the service was great, and the combination of food, beer and catching up with an old friend made this feel like the perfect beginning to my return to Appleton. Sometimes the best travel experiences aren't about finding the newest or trendiest place. Sometimes it's about sitting down with someone who knows you, sharing some great food and beer, and realizing some things really do feel like coming home. Stone Arch was a damn good way to start the reunion. Would absolutely return.

They were extremely friendly and accommodating and had no problem getting all of us taken care of. I kept it pretty simple and got a burger and a beer. The burger was really good and everything came out well, especially considering how many of us there were. What really stood out though was the service. One person in our group is extremely picky about how she likes her steak cooked and ended up sending it back three times. Each time they were friendly about it and genuinely seemed more concerned with getting it right for her than being annoyed about having to remake it again. For us to come in with 25 people on such short notice and still have everyone be so friendly and accommodating was really appreciated. They handled our group incredibly well and never made us feel like an inconvenience. Definitely a 5-star experience and somewhere I would come back to.

It was a Trio Diavolo, a trio of protein with squid pasta, and a red sauce. I didn't understand that the proteins were diced bits that were stirred into the red sauce pasta. I actually thought the protein was separate from a side of pasta. It disappointed me because I generally dislike seafood in red sauce, but honestly, that wasn't their fault so I still gave them a high rating. Service was friendly and playful. Pretty efficient and seemed to like their job. It is a beautiful restaurant with a pretty amazing view, even if the water is at very sad low levels. Maybe this is natural, I've never been here before. All of the wildlife/birds really enhanced the experience. Flocks of seagulls (not the band), and surprisingly large number of pelicans were wonderful to watch. You can see the riverfront exterior and distant bridge in my standard and 360° photos.
