We shared these things: Small plate with scallops, pork belly, cantaloupe. Pork chop, flattened & breaded & fried, with amazing sauce and fresh green beans. Delicata squash, stuffed with a feta forward filling, with hummus and fresh mushrooms on the plate as well. My descriptions do not adequately capture the depth of flavors & sauces on each plate. So many flavors in pleasing combinations! Finally, this place is a great value. I'm not saying it is cheap. But you can spend this kind of money on much less interesting food.

Everyone was very friendly! When asking for special substitutions (regular chicken breast instead of breaded for chicken Parm), they didn't hesitate to help me out. The mozzarella sticks were very good. Not too often you get homemade mozzarella sticks! The chicken Parm was good too. The side salad was a nice touch and was nicely done. Portions were very good, ended up needing a takehome box. Prices were also very good. ~$50 for two sodas, appetizer, and 2 entrees. Would rate this a good experience overall!

We stopped in for dinner and sat at the bar. We were greated by the bartender and we asked her what…read morethey were know for food wise. She quickly responded "Pizza". We were a little apprehensive since we are from Chicago. We ordered the pizza and an order of Mozz sticks. The pizza crust was crisp and cooked perfectly, was it Chicago pizza? No it wasn't, was it good? Yes it sure was. We took the left overs. The small pizza is huge! The Mozz sticks were good and enough to feed 4 people. Service was very friendly and personable. This a great spot to stop in for pizza and beers, giving off sports like pizza spot vibes.

This is just above average. Fries are crisp and good but the burger was just ok.

But Lacrosse isn't too far away so I'm guessing not. We sat at a table so can't really speak on the service as you go to the bar to put your order in so very little interaction with the staff. Locals at bar definitely were something and gave us a lot to listen to... Won't go back.

There was 2 of us, 2 eggs sausage links and toast for my friend and 2 eggs and hashbrowns for me. After 45 min we asked the waitress if she could check on our food. She said our order was next. We waited another 15 minutes. I went up to the bar and asked again. The daughter yelled across the restaurant, you saw how busy we were when you came in. My friend said we are just wondering because you are both out here talking and we've been here an hr. She then said, hashbrowns are made to order and they take a while. Our food finally came and the hashbrowns were so salty I could not eat them. The waitress was wonderful but the owner and her daughter need to work on their customer service!! We will never be back. It should never take over an hr for eggs and hashbrowns. Regardless if you make them from scratch. Yelling at customers like that is ridiculous. I understand if you are busy, but 4 orders? For breakfast? I'm all about supporting the local businesses but they lost me today for good.

Meals made from scratch and dessert too. Specials the day we stopped were a hot beef sundae (Iowa State Fair style) and biscuits topped with creamed chicken. I opted for the hot beef which was totally satisfying and my wife enjoyed a perfectly grilled burger topped with homemade pickles. Also, we couldn't resist sharing a piece of warm freshly made apple crisp! Our waitress was super friendly too. You don't find a lot of places like this nowadays. Outstanding!

Duck, quail, rabbit, steak, and so much more. The menu was incredibly impressive. However, breakfast was delightful.

Everything tasted incredibly fresh. On our way out, we even picked up some tomatoes and carrots from the farm table. 10/10 on everything.

We'll definitely make a point of coming back for dinner next time.
