We had a flight and several cocktails, because when you find a relaxing location that makes a delightful drink, why not stay awhile? After my first drink, I asked for a recommendation and even though it seemed strange (the Cooldown), I took his recommendation and I'm glad I did. It was refreshing while not tasting like an odd concoction. I highly recommend stopping in for a drink (or two).

On a sunny Saturday afternoon in August? Packed to the gills man, as you'd expect for a tiki shack…read moreright on the water. A couple of bars in operation here, with great bartenders, fast and efficient, and very good, considering the volume. The usual tropical drinks on offer, with beers and wines, and the perch basket looks like the hot ticket on the menu though they also have burgers and salads too. Great laid back, tropical, Jimmy Buffett vibe, but also loud and ornery -- hey it's the weekend. Not the place for quiet contemplation, FYI.

They have tv's and it's very laid back. We ordered the Coconut Shrimp to start. I ordered the SOHA, blueberry vodka, lemonade and blueberries to drink. I ordered the Walleye sandwich which was great. It was lightly breaded and not heavy. Our server was really friendly and did a great job considering it was so busy.

Ahoy!

I can't remember all the flavors I tried, but two stand out high above almost any other I've ever had: The "Ursa Major" was a spark of hoppy IPA that was absolutely spectacular. On the opposite end of the spectrum, was the Shamerhorn shanty (not sure about that spelling). I don't usually go for fruity beers, but decided to try it. They mix a little bit of their homemade orange cream soda into one of their wheat beers to make this wonderfully vibrant concoction of summer spirit. It's packed full of flavor, and the zest of orange makes it taste completely refreshing on a hot summer day. There is no food served here, but you can bring food in from the outside. They do have a small popcorn machine if that suits your fancy. Our staff was very knowledgeable about the beer and also very friendly.

Bar was cool and dark but not dingy. Will be back.

Our only feedback would be to include/try wings on the menu and either 1) leave the egg out of the tuna (preference) or 2) mention egg in the menu. This is definitely a wings kinda crowd and wings would well complement the rest of the menu.

We both picked other things to try another visit. This is very much a chill casual dining experience but their food is 10/10! The inside is very much a bar feeling but the food is like fancy.

The breading was smoother than normal plus tougher and a little doughy. They were ok but not as good. The double eagle salad was EXCELLANT and what my husband normally orders.

I had the French dip (high roller) with French onion soup as the side. I love this sandwich and the soup and get it often. It was very good and the soup was hot & good too. The only reason I didn't give a 5 is because of the onion rings. Our server was really good also but I didn't get her name.
