Mainly burgers on the small menu - no surprise given their name. We started with a beer and an order of their deep fried cauliflower with a Buffalo wing hot sauce. They were tasty but a total rip off. A very small serving for $9! I got the mushroom Swiss double burger which was a juicy mess and quite good. I not a big fan of smash burgers since they are often overcooked and I like my burgers medium rare but this one was better. $16 felt a bit much. My wife got the classic burger and liked it for a smash burger. Service was good but the cauliflower price for what we got really colored our experience.

My husband kept raving about his Asian chicken salad. I ordered a cup of lentil soup which was more of a bowl for me and it was flavorful. I had tabouli which was not what I was expecting. I was expecting more of a grain mixture with herbs but what I got was basically a bowl of chipped parsley sprinkled with a grain. But, it was tasty. I don't know if I would order again unless I was really cutting calories...lol. I took a dessert to go. It was a custard/coconut type and I loved it! They advertised hand pressed lemonade on their specials board but when I went to order I was told that they didn't have any. Also, on the menu when I ordered my tabouli, on the menu it stated it came with flat bread. I went back to the counter to inquire about the flatbread I was told no, it doesn't come with the tabouli. I pointed it out on the menu and she proceeded to cross it off telling me it shouldn't be there. These two little things that happened were a turn off but not enough to stop me from going back. But if there are more of these types of bad customer service happenings I will exit and not return.

So look at the pretty good picture on the website and trust that my meal (shown) was delicious. Upper Wisconsin is blessed with some good Vietnamese restaurants because of the immigrants that came during the evacuation of Laos and environs. Besides those restaurants and horrible Chinese buffets, I don't expect any other great ethnic food in Northern Wisconsin, except maybe German. This place, however, is the bomb. We were passing through with our 19 foot travel trailer. A quick Google Maps satellite search showed that this it surrounded by large parking lots thus I could convince my husband to give it a go. No parking issues on a Friday at 1 pm. What I liked: 1. A wide variety of middle eastern foods alongside American favorites. 2. A nice selection of Zapps Cajun potato chips. 3. A nice selection of gourmet sodas (and kombuchas and even some beer.) We had craft ginger beer and root beer. Hubby said the root beer was a little mediciney. 4. Nice desserts, including delicious baklava. What was just OK; It is located in the lobby of a quiet professional building and the AC was a little cold, but DO NOT LET THIS DETER YOU. I highly recommend you order an authentic meat pie/wrap/sandwich. The attention to seasoning is admirable and I believe authentic. If I'm ever in this neck of the woods again I look forward to returning.

I think we had approximately 20 people and a couple joined last minute. I know this is not ideal for servers, but it worked out well and again, we so appreciate it! The Informalist was super convenient since many of us were staying at the Lismore Hotel. Since this restaurant is located in the lobby, it was just super easy and the menu has something for everyone. We ordered from both the pizza and regular dinner menu and many of us shared a bit of everything! The truffle fries may have been the biggest hit of all, so don't miss out on those! Pizza is fabulous too. We saw elote fries, a burger, caesar salad, steak and so many other things at our table. My favorite pizza was the Yellow Jacket, which includes red sauce, mozzarella, cheddar cheese, pepperoni, and spicy honey. My least favorite item was the salmon crudo, but the salmon entree was not bad. Ambiance is hip and trendy and feels a bit fancy, but we were all dressed casually. Interesting due to the name of the restaurant, but it works! If back in the area, I'd absolutely return. Enjoy!
