    Good food. Grate service. The place itself was really cute and unique. Would definitely recommend as a fun place to go and hang out

    Sooo so much fun for our little one! She went in all the buses and pretended to drive. All the kids there were having a good time running around to check out everything. The coolest thing to see is the huge greyhound bus above the bar (that you can sit inside!). The food was good too - burgers. Our little one's food came in a car box that was also fun. Shakes looked good but we didn't have one - all kinds of fun varieties of shakes with lots of toppings! We'll be back here in future visits to the Dells.

    The place is pretty cool and the service was good but the drinks were way too sweet. The drink also requires a purchase of a novelty cup. To me that seems a little excessive. They do serve yeungling beer though!

    This is a fun place to have food in Dells. The place gets packed very quickly. I stopped by on a Friday afternoon. The place was not fully occupied at that time. I climbed steps into a bus which is a floor above. It is a fun place especially with kids. There are buses and vans for them to pretend play. There are multiple food vendors in the place. Food was also surprisingly good. Amigos, which is in the truck in the entrance was my favorite. I got oreo overdrive shake, 3 empanadas and an arepa from here. All were excellent. For empanadas, I went for one each of beef, chicken and cheesy corn. Beef was my favorite, others were good as well. I had chicken and beef arepa. I also had a mac and cheese asada bowl wich come in a small fun little paper car. That was fun for kids. In the evening there is fire pit, and the outdoor gets vibrant.

    Perfect spot to sit outside and listen to great music and watch the Mt. Olympus fireworks on independence Day (2025). There are plenty of spots to choose from for a drink and food. We chose Low Rida for the Mexican food and I'm not entirely sure where the pizza came from. The service at all of the businesses was wonderful. Even the woman who was at the truck who was walking around with samples of slushed drinks. We had a great time and it's a great time for the whole family!

    Atmosphere is so cool for families or just people looking to have a drink or catch up. My kid was able to get a hot dog at one of the trucks and the guy accidentally gave me a grilled cheese when I asked for a grilled chicken sandwich, but it was okay. We got Oreo milkshakes from the one place and they were expensive but delicious.

    Refillable cup. $9 for a large refill.

    Got into the Dells and went looking for a quick bite to eat and a drink. Found the Grateful Shed and ordered from Cluck Yeah and it was exceptional. The chicken cobb salad was a very nice size with generous toppings and one of their pizzas had a nice fluffy crust and a fantastic amount of cheese and pepperoni. We'll for sure be back before we leave town. Also, get the souvenir cup from the bar for cheap refills! Really friendly staff all around as well.

    They have butter beer!

    The family and I were in the Dells late last year and I wanted to leave my review because we have good memories of this place. We went here after a day at the parks, so we got here late, around 9:30. The place is a variety of food trucks indoors, with outdoor eating space, games, etc plus a full bar. We tried a few of the item but didn't get too much because we had already eaten. The bar service was good and the selection was also impressive. The selection of food was varied and appeals to a variety of people. It was very loud, as there was live music and a lot of people, but a great happening spot and I would definitely stop here again.

    Great place for photo ops but food was mediocre. We came here with a large group and tried a little of everything...the Jamaican food and milkshakes were my favorite! We got my son the

    Large outdoor seating area

    So many delicious food options. Bar service was not great (teenage employees in training). But it's fine if you just order a tap beer. Variety of seating options and SO MUCH to look at.

    Weird potatoes that came with the dinner plate

    Definitely a unique stop in the Dells area. They have a bunch of food trucks inside this large garage that also has arcade games, TVs and music. Didn't notice it until after chatting with the bartender that the happy hour on weekdays is from 4:20-6:20pm. Got 1/2 off beers so not bad. It was nice that we could both get something different for dinner. I tried the taco dinner from Pasqual's (3 street tacos with side of potatoes) and it had good flavor and plentiful toppings. Liked the salsa verde on the side. You also grab your food yourself so there isn't much in the way of staff walking around. Husband liked his pepperoni pizza and it was a good sized portion, too. Only gripe is the online menu differs from what's available there (showing more taco choices buttered were only 3 or 4). You can even order on kiosks in front of the trucks but we noticed those also didn't match the menu on the truck.

    A must stop if you are visiting the dells! This is a vibrant, unique spot with a bar and various indoor food truck options. There are plenty of TVs around and many fun drinks and tap beers to satisfy your desires! We tried the clamari from one of the food trucks which was surprisingly good and came with a really good dipping sauce. This joint is kid friendly until late night when it turns into more of a bar with live music or a DJ most nights! During the summer, there is a big outdoor area to enjoy as well.

    Plenty of outdoor eating space as well.

    This place is FUN! Such a great atmosphere. With multiple food trucks to choose from, everyone in your party is sure to enjoy their meal. I had the ribs from the BBQ truck and they were seriously some of the best smoked ribs I've ever eaten. Prices are a little high, but it's still worth it.

    This is an experience. You cook your own meat on volcanic stones. They are super hot and if you…read moredon't like to try cooking your own meat you won't enjoy this. Be aware that adding butter over the top of your meat while it's searing will cause some splashing and little hot droplets of butter may land on you. We ordered the Volcanic Punch with the take home specialty punch dish/mug. It's very cute and comes out with a flame coming out from the middle. It tasted good, not overly alcoholic and not too sweet. Easy to drink but if I went again I would get my own drink because it's a little annoying sliding the drink across the table every few minutes so each person can take a sip. We started with the Seared Ahi Tuna which you cook on the lava stone. This one is easy because you just sear it really well on each side and can eat the inside pretty raw. Then we had an order of the mussels. These come in a tomato based sauce which was good but we had hoped for a more butter or wine base. Then we shared the seafood trio and steak trio. The scallops were fantastic! The salmon I wasn't that fond of. All the steak trio meats were delicious but do take longer to cook on the stone. I will say the quality of meat was pretty good. Our server was very informative and funny! The restaurant is a little smoky inside because of all of the cooking happening at eat table. Overall it was a cool experience but I don't see us going back again, only because I'd rather have someone else cook my food

    Hands down one of the best dining experiences I've ever had. I was staying across the street at…read moretreescapes and wanted to try here for dinner. I've only ever cooked on a lava stone once before, so I was excited to do it again. The tiki theme in here is well executed and super cute. Obviously I had to get the shark bite drink and take home the shark cup because now I'm prepared for shark week. I forwent apps because I had a feeling the meal itself would be filling and it definitely was for me at least (I'd been swimming all day). My salmon was delish and I appreciated my waiter's instructions on how to cook it. I also grilled up my side of broccoli and some extra mushrooms and onions in butter on the stone. The garlic mashed potatoes on the side too were a great call. I'd literally drive 14 hours at least one way to come back here and eat, I'm not kidding. Beyond delicious, it's an experience to remember for sure.

    Monk's Bar & Grill gives 'welcome to the midwest' vibes and we loved it. We stopped in on a Friday…read morenight for dinner after craving a burger. We were seated quickly and the server was awesome. We started with a pineapple sour mocktail- it was good but nothing to write home about. The good on the other hang was awesome. We did a bacon cheese burger- no complaints, a spicy burger with subs- made as ordered, and the brisket burger with a TON of subs- 100% made to order. All of the burgers were fabulous and came out within about 15 minutes. Our waitress came back to check on us but honestly everything was perfect and we didn't need much. I would come back the next time we are in town. I noticed they have an upstairs but didn't have a chance to check it out.

    We came in relatively late on a Monday, as a party of 4. We were greeted and seated immediately-…read moreservice was very good & staff was bilingual, easily switching between English and Spanish. 2 specialty beers, a fountain drink, an order of pretzel braids, Gouda Burger, wrap with upgrade to tots came to about $80 after tip. Averaging $20pp with splitting meals and 3 drinks, 1 water. The rather standard pretzel came with 3 dips- the jalapeño cream cheese easily being the favorite, followed by mustard & no interest in the nachos cheese one from anyone. The burger (& wrap) came with battered fries that are quite tasty & were used to finish off the pretzels dips - my preference would be the fries over the tots (the wrap order upgraded to). Now, the star... the burger was thick and juicy with a bun that handled it well. Yoppings were fresh - we paid extra (not much) to get the works on the burger & asked for a side of mayo for the fries. This worked well for the 2 of us to split. The gal was thoughtful enough to bring extra plates & utensils for splitting. I would stop here again en route or if staying in the area. Yes, even if not drinking.
