    a view of the dining area of a restaurant

    It's Chinese food. Everything was fresh and hot. Taste like a million other Chinese places. MSG IS GOOOOOOOOOD!!! I tried a bite of everything. All good. Lunch is cheaper but dinner did have a couple types of shrimp. No harm. no foul. Enjoy.

    This is your generic small-town Chinese food buffet. There was nothing particularly great about this place, but no huge complaints. It's a bit rundown and grubby, but the food was alright and I didn't barf. If you desire Chinese food and want it asap, this will suffice !

    They have no clue on how to cook Mongolian beef. I have no idea about the rest of the food, but good luck to you.

    Came back into town to visit family and friends..been away since 1984 and make it back home a…read morecouple times a year from St.Louis. First time here. Met some friends for cocktails and dinner. Had great service at the bar and dining room. Ordered the perch fish fry (ya, and a few brandy old fashioneds...its Friday in Wisco, right?). Fish was really good, but the old school salad bar was a cool touch! And, some decent clam chowder to boot! Will def return. This is such a cool old school Wisconsin joint...hell, I'd call it a Supper Club--try it an you tell me!

    If you're looking for good food, I would recommend going somewhere else. We ordered a rare steak,…read morebut it came out well done, and the seafood boil was severely overcooked. We waited 15 minutes to tell our server and she didn't even come over to our table until she was ready to give us the check. There was only one server for the entire dining room, and although she seemed overwhelmed and short on patience, it was clear she was stretched too thin. We were genuinely excited to try this place despite the mixed reviews, but unfortunately, it did not live up to expectations. Even small details, like crooked photos on the walls,added to the overall disappointing experience. Sadly, we won't be returning. The food was the biggest issue, and we would strongly suggest hiring a new chef. If you do decide to visit, we'd recommend going just for drinks rather than the food. The bartender was very nice and genuinely funny, which was the one bright spot of our visit.

I hate posting a negative reviews of a small local business, but we were disappointed. No we aren't looking for discounts free food etc or anything. In fact I hope it was just a bad day for them. We ordered: General Tsos chicken Orange chicken Pot stickers and spring rolls. 45$ is pricey for 2 mains and 2 apps but my husband figured they might be good. Sometimes the food is worth the $. The General Tsos chicken had no flavour really beyond over cooked soy. No spice either. The orange chicken tasted borderline exactly like the General Tsos chicken. Lots of soy. The barest hint of orange and no spice. My spring rolls had an overpowering cooking oil flavour and the pot stickers had no water chestnuts, no ginger, no scallions or garlic. Just ground meat. I am giving the restaurant a maybe on reccomendations because perhaps the chef was off...maybe it was just a bad day. I hope they continue serving their loyal clients but sadly we will take a pass on ordering from here again. It's just too expensive to test drive a 2nd time for us.
