This is what they call a purple rain martini? It looks like sewer water.
Prince S.

This place is a pile of crap! The inside was deceiving because it's beautifully decorated. The waitress was completely spaced out and forgot a quarter of our menu items. I ordered a purple rain martini and it came out grayish blue! I will never go here again. My bun was completely dripped with grease and I couldn't eat my fries, cause they were soaking wet.

Located right off the highway next to the Johnson Creek Outlet, Hi-Way Harry's is hard to miss. The Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired architecture explains the quirky yet fascinating decor -- including a waterfall right at the entrance. If you're stopping in for lunch, go for the smashburger. It's got that perfect balance of grease and onion flavor that makes it worth the stop. Enjoy!

The architecture and ambience in here is very cool! We came for lunch on a Saturday and got seated right away. The waitress was very attentive and we had our food very quick. Food was nothing special but very good for what we had.

On Sunday we went to Hi Way Harry's at 11 am, the place wasn't too busy. By 12:45 pm we only received one appetizer (note we only ordered one other dish) so asked for it to go and received a bill for $70 (lobster ravioli and risotto croquettes, and 2 coffees). Waitress didn't check on us, apologize nor comp the meal at all. I went to the restroom and there was no toilet paper either ‍ I used up all my patience for the day and was embarrassed for them. The atmosphere was nice but I don't foresee myself going back there again.

Ribs

This always a fun place to stop on our way back from Madison. My mom loves this restaurant. We stopped here recently on a Saturday around 5pm. There are so many options to choose from. I narrowed it down to the pesto chicken with strawberries and my mom got the ribs. Both our meals came with soup or salad, choice of potato and veggies. You also get warm bread before your meal and it is so good. The pesto strawberry chicken was amazing. I hope to recreate it at home. My mom enjoyed her ribs. We splurged on dessert. They bring out a tray of options which is always fun to look over. We went with the carrot cake. It's not pictured because we quickly gobbled it up. Our server was attentive and friendly. This restaurant is also really cool with a raised bar area, a water feature, and very nice bathrooms.

Cool entrance to at Hi-Way Harry's

We met my sister & husband here for brunch on a Sunday and really enjoyed the meal. I had the Crab Benedict and the portion was more generous and I really liked the flavor. All the ingredients were fresh and I like the fact that they added fresh spinach. We got there before my Sister arrived and our server greeted us right away and we were able to able to enjoy a Bloody Mary while waiting. And a $3.00 bloody at that!. Fun atmosphere with a cool waterfall as you walk in. We have driven by this place for years and I'm glad we finally stopped. We'll be back again.

Chateaubriand (medium): it was pretty dang blue for medium, and not the best.

Chateaubriand (medium): pretty dang blue for medium, juices filled the plate and the taste was not great. Mashed potatoes were the best. Mixed veggies seemingly from a frozen bag and reheated - we asked for broccoli for our son but the veggies only came mixed. I now understand the Yelp rating. The quality isn't what it was 15 years ago! The landfill on the property over really reeks as you walk in and out. The restaurant itself is just very out of place.

They have a nice bar area with tables so we were able to grab a table and drinks while we waited. With the crowd, it took some time to get our drink orders. The dining room is cozy. It is family style, all you can eat. The waitress came over to confirm we wanted everything on the menu and then dishes were brought out to our table within 5 minutes. There were sides (baked beans, coleslaw, etc.), fried chicken, baked fish, fried fish, and fries. Overall I thought everything was ok. We were not a fan of the baked fish and the chicken was hit or miss. The chicken was bone in, some pieces were good and some weren't great. Overall our favorite thing on the table was the fried fish. Cool experience and friendly staff but overall underwhelmed by the food.

The dining area is much smaller and you are literally shimmying and squeezing into spaces so you don't bump others. The ambiance is stunning though, with details on the ceilings, the fans and anywhere else you look. We went on Friday, so the menu was limited. I usually get a tenderloin or filet, but I only had ribeye as an option, so I went with it. Many others in our party got the fish fry. There was a relish tray that came along with that, including beans and potato salads. The fish fry came with bake fish, fried fish, and broasted chicken. But we had four people at our table who ordered it and when they asked for more, they brought two pieces of things at a time, seemed extremely silly. Our waitress was extremely hard to hear, as it was so loud in the dining room and she was always walking away from us. The overall experience was okay, but not extremely memorable.

Jordy's definitely had their act together, and I was quite impressed with a few things here. First off, the friendly staff and clean atmosphere were very inviting. We had a large party, and everyone was directed to a nice, clean area. There wasn't food all over the seats or brushed off to the sides. The floor was very clean, making the establishment inviting to sit down and have a meal. We ended up ordering all sorts of platters, samplers, steaks, and ribs. People got many different items, and no matter what we threw at the staff, everything for appetizers came out at the same time-and then all the main entrees together. Given the variety of foods ordered, the timing of everything being served was seriously impressive. A big shout out to Emilio, who did just about everything as the person who we constantly interacted with. His demeanor was wonderful, and I would ask for him by name going back to the establishment.

I found the prices to be very affordable, especially for the quality of food you were getting out there, and the drinks were not priced at extortion rates like you see at other restaurants. I'm not in the Watertown area too often, but if I were and was looking for a great place to get some food, I would absolutely recommend Jordy's.

We all started with cocktails which were good, though a bit small for the price. Small glass, lots of ice. I ordered a ribeye medium rare with blue cheese add-on and a loaded baked potato. I was very pleased overall. It was cooked just right and was very tender. My baked potato had plenty of add ons; bacon cheese and sour cream. The mushroom soup was good. The small dinner rolls were outstanding; hot and crispy on the outside. Everyone else ordered the fillet, one rare and the others medium rare. All commented that their fillets were perfectly cooked and very tender. Our server was very pleasant and attentive throughout and the prices were very reasonable for the quality of the meal. I'd call it a 4.5 stars but overall I went with 5 for the overall experience.
