Stopped in Saturday night for some live music. The place was busy but thankfully not chaotic busy…read more When I entered the host sign was turned to "Please Wait To Be Seated" but nobody was there so I started to mosey to see where I thought the musician would play? I entered the dining room off to the north and asked a staff where he would play? She pointed to the area by the host stand. As I began to make my way to the stand to wait to be seated I saw two women vacating a table so I asked them if they were leaving and if I could have their table? I was only there a short few minutes before the bartender came out to ask if I needed a drink or a menu? Also stated she would clean the table. I told her "I saw the wait to be seated sign but nobody was there". She said they do that so the servers don't get overwhelmed. There were a few cocktails that sounded absolutely delicious, but they'll have to wait for another day when I have room in my belly. I opted for the kids grilled chicken tenders, it was like a pounded out chicken breast cut in to strips, perfect enough for me. I like the decor...look up, some of the light fixtures are wagon wheels w lanterns hung from them. The area above the "gambling" corner has a car bumper and old Radio Flyer just below the ceiling, fun. There is a sign on the wall there that reads: Drinks 2-for-1 while gambling. If that's your jam! The acoustics were great for the musician! Parking Parking was easy w all four sides of Main Street offered free parking and the east/west running streets also offered free parking. Nutty Squirrel has a sign on the wall near the host stand that lists their daily Specials. My server was "sous-chef trying to earn some extra cash, Anthony". Let me tell you, as I asked a fellow who was bopping around all night "are you the manager? Sous-Chef Anthony wasn't good... he was freaking fabulous! I asked him for a sauce lid a bit ago and said don't you dare come back here in two minutes with a lid... I'm here all night!" Anthony replied "I'm not doing anything else at the moment." When he had brought out my food I asked "could you bring out silverware when you get a moment?" Anthony replied "I can do it now, I got you." He was so friendly and attentive, very much appreciated. Thanks Nutty Squirrel for a simply delightful evening! Delicious food ordered from and brought out by a friendly fellow in a comfortable and well lit environment for a reasonable price. Looking forward to my next visit when I can imbibe in a cocktail or maybe have the Burger of the Month! Cheers!

Pulled Pork Sandwich was inedible, mush with sour coleslaw on top. All of the food was barely warm- we did order a pizza, so they maybe waited for the pizza to be done and then brought all the food together(?)IDK. The wings we ordered were good, but not like they used to be. Nachos were sad, curds mediocre. The service was fine, but the food isn't worth the price. We talked this place up so much, but it seems it's going the same direction as all the other restaurants these days: severely low-quality food for super high prices

I have been here three times and my experience is always the same. The place is so sticky and the floor covered in puddles of spilled drinks. This place is has a shoddy dance floor so it is popular with the 21 year olds but I would recommend going out of town to the cities to dance.

It should be known, this is a college bar in a college town. If you are going for dinner with family/children, go early as the weekend festivities start around 8-9.

Whiskey burger was cooked perfectly and a solid choice. Trout bisque was everything it should be. I was glad I had a lemon wedge for my water. It is SUPER rich and you can't be afraid of salt. The mushroom and sausage flatbread was loaded and distinctly mushroomy. Drinks of course were the stars. The coffee martini with chai was velvety smooth. The Easy Street was refreshing and went down easy. It had just the right amount of sweet. The old fashioned game here sets the bar high. The Oahu gets a Minnesota "that's interesting." It smells like coconut as it should. Glad I tried it, thanks for the fun times...I'll call you later The Rye and WI old fashioneds are amazing and worth comparing side-by-side. Staff is accommodating and friendly. We did have to wait even though there were tons of empty tables (it was more about how many servers.) patio was open, but we sat inside. It is a comfortable, warm atmosphere. Love it here!

We ordered the cheese curds because that's what you do when you are in Wisconsin. Of course they were amazing. Service was prompt and excellent. This place has everything. Seems to be a venue for large gatherings, Had a bit of a sports bar vibe with the TV's. But it was nicer than a regular sports bar. Ordered a Brandy Old Fashioned which was strong; tasty and strong. One was enough. I saw some burgers go by to another table and that made me order one. Had the whiskey burger and it was amazing with the fries. I wish i lived closer. I would go here often. I understand they have drink mixing glasses and other fun things to do. This place is worth stopping for.

The place is clean, with nice-looking light-colored wood decor. It's bigger on the inside than on the outside, as another reviewer indicated. We live a half-mile away, and it's our go-to spot when we don't want to make a decision about supper. :) Good beers on tap. Nice servers. Last time we were walking there, a car pulled over and said to us, "You from around here? Do you know a good burger joint?" Boy, did they ask the right people the right question! We said, "Yep--right there!" Later, inside The Lazy River, when they were leaving, they thanked us for the good advice. :)
