The server was working her butt off, and knew everyone's name that came in. It was like family circulating in and out throughout the time we were there. I liked the vibes. I had an Irish omelet which consisted of corned beef inside the omelet and American potatoes. There were some crispy bits that were great. I enjoyed this. My mom had the same but with crispy hash browns. I would recommend this place. It waa warm and inviting.

The decor is very eclectic and busy. The quality is middle of the road for breakfast food, not bad but not outstanding. I can't speak to anything else on the menu other than breakfast items. Not terrible if you want a sit down breakfast in the area and don't want gas station food or McDonald's.

For my main I got the bacon cheeseburger, the food came like 15 min after we ordered so super quick. and it was really juicy and saucy which I like, the burger was cooked well and it was all very tasty.

It's a cute place, decorated with many cool paintings, I took pictures of a few. It's like a little Italian bistro inside. My waitress was super sweet and attentive. The menu is robust. There were many items I would want to try, but given my limited time I went with the chicken Caesar salad. It was a perfect lunch portion and the chicken was lightly blackened. It was so tasty! I also ordered their bread basket, which was two pieces of grilled bread. It was a perfect side for the salad. I enjoyed it so much I plan to eat here again the next time I'm in town for work.

I had seen good reviews about this establishment and they did not disappoint. We enjoyed 2 appetizers of "sandbaggers tots" which were more then enough for 8 people to share. Everyone enjoyed their entrees from BBQ chicken flatbread to a massive prime rib dip. Excellent price points for everything we had. Flat top seating with a full bar. Craft beer available with frosted glasses. Clean restroom. Good service with friendly staff. Located within the West Branch Country Club. I would definitely return when back in the area.

Now to the Wisconsin bbq chicken sandwich. in my opinion, dunking a chicken breast in bbq sauce, and calling it a day to me is lazy, I think that if your gonna make a bbq chicken sandwich I rather wish it be smoked and the lightly using bbq sauce not over saturating it. The fries were crunchy and delicious and right amount of salt. The cheese curds were nice and delicious with the marinara. Plus on this sandwich I'd like lettuce, tomato, pickles and instead of provolone give me Swiss. Overall I liked my meal I just make these improvements to the sandwich and it be a solid 10/10 but this over all is like a 7/10 or in this yelp reviews case a 3 out of 5.

The olive burger was so delicious...cooked perfectly, juicy and overflowing with olives! I opted to add on a side of garlic mashed potatoes, which I would also highly recommend...they were buttery, garlicky, and topped with a little cheese...very yummy! It was mid-afternoon and pretty quiet, but we were well taken care of...very nice visit overall!

I went to the Fox Den restaurant with my wife and some neighborhood friends. I ordered the prime…read morerib and my wife the spinach artichoke chicken. The prime rib was old and cold. The fat was as white as paper. The meat cold to the touch. I asked the waitress to have it warmed. When it returned it looked much better and was the right temperature and appearance. However, it was terrible. The meat tasted old and had a tinny taste to it. My wife absolutely enjoyed her chicken dish and we enjoyed out meal with friends. When I paid the bill I let the waitress know that the prime rib didn't improve and was terrible. She apologized and gave a small discount on the bill. Unfortunately, this is the second bad prime rib I have gotten at the Fox Den. I am not picky and just want consistency in a restaurant. For over $30 you have a consistent product or don't offer that item. Since you advertise it as a restaurant specialty you should really stand behind the quality a little better. Maybe offer to replace it with a fresh cut. Overall, I am sure we will go there again, just not as often. PS I commented on one of their ads on Facebook and they deleted by comment without a response. Mistakes are made, own it and improve on it.

St Helen's does not have a lot of options for lunch and my friend said he had good experiences before. My friend insisted that the portobello fries were good and we ordered the appetizer - and he was right! They were actually very good! The batter was light on them so I appreciated that as it did not make it too heavy. My hubby ordered just chili for lunch and he was surprised it had as much spicy kick to it as it did - and that was a huge plus for him. I ordered a salad with seared tuna - I forgot to get a picture of it but there was a decent amount of tuna. The salad itself was fresh and crisp with a good Asian dressing.

The mushroom soup was just okay. There was too much pepper in the soup. The hot toddy was a good drink. The elk meatloaf was just okay. The bbq sauce was a little too sweet. The mushroom pasta was not good at all. It was so unbelievably bland. Over $40 for the most bland pasta I've ever had. I am not sold at this point in coming back. Again, the service was amazing! The food was not worth it for the price.

We have been dining at Bennethum's for 15+ years based on all of these. The best upscale, (but not pretentious) option in the Gaylord area. Josh and his family go the extra mile to insure their guests feel welcome and receive great service. On our most recent visit, I had the Perch, a menu staple. Always fresh, lightly dusted and flash fried, nice portion and great flavor. Accompanied with jasmine rice and green beans. My wife had the BNI Blue Wedge Salad, blue cheese dressing , applewood smoked bacon, tomatoes, onion, with shrimp added for protein. Shrimp were plump, juicy and flavorful. And a meal is not complete without a loaf of their BNI bread. :) Great cocktails, warm ambiance. Be sure to check them out when in Gaylord area.
