Had dinner here tonight. Arrived earlier than our reservation time so we could enjoy a drink at the bar. I had a dragon fruit cocktail, which was very good. A piano player was providing live music in the bar, which was nice. At our reservation time. We were seated and Jim was our server. Jim took great care of us and was friendly. We both ordered the beer battered haddock fish fry and chose sweet potato fries. Our meals started with warm rolls and butter, which was a nice touch. The fish fries also included Cole slaw and baked beans. The fish was lightly battered and not greasy. The sweet potato fries were good, but overly seasoned with salt & something else. I didn't try the baked beans and found that an odd side. Of note, it was a warm day and from our table it didn't feel like their A/C was keeping up. The restroom felt a good 10 degrees cooler. read more

If you want to wait over two hours for your food and have poor service this is the place for you. Food was NOT good. No smiles or thank yous at all and by no means ask for a different table because you will get a "how dare you" look... even though there were many empty tables. And now I know why. Good luck if you choose to eat at Marty's Place North. Never again for us. read more

The Staff was rude, and the food was not good. Too much Garlic, in everything, it was crazy. We were at this restaurant 8 years ago, and staff was rude then as well. We thought that we would try the place again. It is beautiful, a real gem for the North Woods, and is under new ownership. But, once again, it was a huge disappointment. My steak was dry and had no flavor. Everything else, was like eating raw garlic. Don't waste your time and money on this place.. it's a real shame! And most of all it's almost like the servers there just don't care. read more

Went here with a group of 12 guys for a bachelor party, was an excellent experience all around.

We've been going to Marty's during our annual camping trip for the past few years, we love it! Fun supper club atmosphere, great food and cocktails, attentive service (thank you, Brady! And we appreciated the manager stopping by to check on us). Our group of 11 loves sitting at the "circle table," We'll be back next year! read more

Although it's not the supperclub i once worked at (now have a tv in the bar for sports fans)... the food was delicious, timely and the old fashioneds were spot on. Warm, clean ambiance, friendly staff and good service. The walleye was delicious. read more

We've been to Marty's place north many times and the food and the service was excellent. yesterday was not like that. We were given the worst table in the house by the bathrooms, the staircase with everybody running up and down past us . We ordered two appetizers. The first was calamari and the second one was the brussels sprouts. We sent the calamari back because you could not even chew it. It was so tough and we never received brussels sprouts. Our entrées: the veal was very good but the mash it was on top of was salty. My son had the steak special which he said was very good. read more

Wanted to love this reopened restaurant but...had a 3-star experience. Decor inside is untouched from prior owners. Not even a light fixture refresh. Overall Marty's Place North is a wonderful spot to have an after dinner drink & dessert at the bar but our dinner reservation experience was less than ideal. We arrived right on time for our online reservation, a plus in the Northwoods to be able to make a reliable reservation digitally. Text confirmation received. Our server took over 8 minutes to greet our table while other servers were bussing their tables. Our appetizer came to the table before our drinks (wine & a root beer). Our server then forgot to bring my salad so I cancelled it after our entrees arrived. Fish fry comes with all the fixings but my steak was undercooked to my medium rare temperature leaving me to only be able to eat the outer portions of the filet. Just disappointing dinner service overall. Other local restaurants in this price range offer a more consistent dining experience. read more

Martys Place North - Chef's special steak preparation. Wonderfully seasoned but center of fillet undercooked to medium rare temperature. - Desserts Near Me - Woodruff, Wisconsin

Horrible place. We had a reservation and waited almost an hour before I left the restaurant. Don't count on them honoring your reservation. Horrible and lazy staff. read more

Service was excellent. The only negative was that the walleye was badly overcooked and had an off flavor. It was supposedly to be prepared "buerre blanc" which translates to "white butter", is a classic French butter sauce known for its delicate, creamy, and tangy flavor. It is a versatile emulsion sauce often served with fish, seafood, poultry, and vegetables. There was no sauce! Everything else was excellent. Come on guys, don't overcooked the fish, and don't forget the sauce! read more

Beautiful log building and great atmosphere. The staff and food were both outstanding. Highly recommended.

My husband and I love it there. Food is delicious, service is fantastic and the atmosphere is relaxing and inviting!!!

We stopped in for an after dinner cocktail and it was awesome. We stopped later in the evening on a Saturday night and the staff was wonderful. Had an Espresso Martini and a White Russian which was a perfect topping for our day. Have always driven by this place and first time stopping. Loved the ambiance!!!! read more

I'm not sure where to begin with this review. Here goes.. My boyfriend and I have been here one time before. It was good. I read the reviews last night before we went. They aren't good, but we like to form our own opinions. Last night was our second time. We wanted prime rib and the online menu said they had it as a special on Saturday night. We sat at the bar, as we do when we go out. Ordered drinks (neat whiskey.. neat tequila). Can't mess that up. Bartender was nice. We ordered our food, both prime rib. One queen cut, one king cut. Note: no price listed for prime rib and anything else you order is separate, not included with prime rib. Well.. both plates came out. My boyfriend's PR looked great, mine on the other hand, not so great. Mine looked like an end cut of fat. Not much meat at all. It appeared the chef/cook.. tried to hide the fat by the way it was on the plate. My BF tasted his and it was cold, not room temperature.. cold. Baked potato, the same. I found some meat on mine, it was the same, cold. My baked potato and my BF.. the butter didn't melt at all. I say that to give a picture of the temperature of the food. We called the bartender over and let her know, in the nicest way possible. She then went to another lady, I'm guessing the manager. They both apologized and blonde lady (manager I think) said she would take the meals off our tab. They both asked if we wanted to order something else. As politely as possible we said no thank you. We will go eat somewhere else. Mind you, few choices to pick from to eat after 7-8PM. We finished up our drinks and asked for our bill. The blonde lady offered to buy our drinks, we said no that's ok we drank them, we will pay for them. She insisted, so ok go ahead. We left a generous tip and gathered our things and left. Thank you for the drinks, but we will only go back to have a cocktail and never any food. To me, the meals go back to kitchen where it starts. What chef/cook would send that out? Clearly it was cold. Then, is there another person that checks it? The bartender? The manager? I know this place is under new ownership and it wasn't busy. If new owners want to succeed, step your game way up. I should've gone with the reviews on this pick. I could go on, but this is a sufficient enough of a review. Again, step up your place, dim the bar lights, check your service and food. Good luck! read more

Four of us dined at Marty's on Saturday night. We had reservations at 6:00 got there early and had drinks at the bar. My brandy Old fashioned was perfect! My wife and my friend had chicken piccata, I had pork schnitzel, and my friends wife had sturgeon. What! I have never seen sturgeon on a menu anywhere...never! We all sampled each other's dishes each dish was prepared perfectly! The chicken piccata was tender and moist. My schnitzel and spaetzels and red cabbage were out of this world! But we all loved the unique flavor of the sturgeon. A very firm and rich white fish with great flavor. I will be ordering the sturgeon next visit this Friday! I hate to say this but we have dined at Marty's many many times over the years and the food was always amazing. However Marty's is better than when Marty's was Marty's! BTW our server Angel was outstanding! read more

We had a wonderful experience at Marty's Place North! First off this is what you think of when you think of a classic Northwoods supper club. The bar was a great first stop and the cocktails were delicious. Our group of seven decided to order different entrees and share so we were able to taste a little of everything. Porsche, our server, was so helpful and attentive. We started out with calmari and cheese curds and they were delicious. Next time I want to try the riblets. I didn't order the Sturgeon because I had never had it before, but it might have been the best two bites I had all night. My husband loves walleye and the walleye almondine was delicious. I wanted to try everything and didn't want a big steak so I ordered the chile-rubbed steak bites from the appetizer menu, and they had great flavor and were a generous size. Someone else ordered the lamb chops and they were delicious, too. We shared one of each of the desserts that were offered. They all were great, but the flourless chocolate cake was insanely good. Thanks to the entire team at Marty's Place North for working so hard to get this gem reopened for the 2024 season! It was a memorable evening. We will be back soon! read more

It has it all! Great northern ambiance, delicious food and good service. We had a window view of the woods - it was lovely. The pianist in the bar area was a very nice touch. It made the experience extra special. It was a wonderful supper club experience! read more

I don't usually say anything unless it's nice, however we had dinner at Marty's and were very unhappy. Our server was fine, as were the drinks. The menu is very limited which is fine if it's good. We ordered the seafood pasta it had 5 mussels, one never opened, two shrimp and some artificial crab. We also ordered the walleye which was fried in some type of dark breading and the meat was dark and dense. Needless to say we were very disappointed. It would take a lot to go back. read more

Arrive early for our reservation went to bar. We had a drink and asked about the prime rib reassured it would be great. Our waitress suggested the brussel sprouts ap and it was great. Then came our prime rib it was less than acceptable. It was dry and tough. the worst I have ever had. Everything is ala cart so its quite expensive. not sure I will go back. it was a typical old time supper club type feel only on a micro size. read more

Cassie was a delight and attentive. We loved the beet salad, best we have had. Veal short ribs very flavorful. We will definitely return. Sturgeon next visit. read more

I went to Marty's for the first time last fall just for a drink with my family. We were so blown away by the beauty of the bar and the good service that we decided to return next time we were up north together for dinner (which just so happened to be last weekend). I'm very glad we made reservations because even though I called on Thursday night for Saturday reservations, there were only two times available to choose from. When we arrived it was definitely busy. We got there early to enjoy another drink at that lovely bar. The bartender made amazing drinks and was very quick and attentive despite a very busy bar/restaurant. When we were seated for dinner our server was VERY friendly. The atmosphere itself was pretty chaotic. It seemed like there was not enough staff for the amount of patrons in the restaurant. All the workers seemed to be in good spirits though. We ordered crab cakes for an appetizer, definitely run of the mill, but not in a bad way. I really liked the complimentary relish tray (particularly the pasta salad). We all ordered soup or salad that came with our entrees. My husband loved the seafood bisque and I thought the salad was good as well. My husband and I both ordered ribeyes and they were cooked perfectly per our temperature request. I also really enjoyed my garlic mashed potatoes. All in all, I definitely enjoyed the experience at Marty's. I do believe that next time we'll return at a less busy time, as we really did have to wait awhile for service. I also really preferred the downstairs bar area to the upstairs dining area. It looks like there is some dinner seating in the bar, so I will probably request a seat in the bar just to round off the great experience. All in all, a great place to go! read more

Enjoyed a fabulous meal in a supper club atmosphere amidst the covid staff shortage! Very impressed. We used to come here years ago but stopped dining here due to a small menu full of fried foods. Recently discovered their current diverse menu and had to come back. Plenty of red meat, chicken, veal, fish, and a few veggie options. We were so excited and it fulfilled all of our expectations and then some. Hubs enjoyed a delicious Manhattan, drink menu is large. I enjoyed a kiddie cocktail-they even offer three flavors (blue raspberry, green apple, cherry) how cool. He devoured the filet with garlic mashed and I enjoyed their veggie carbonara- very creamy and tasty, plenty to take home. We both loved our meals! Also super impressed with the staff. Even during the current severe up north staff shortage our waitress, Nikita (sp) made us feel like it was a regular fully staffed Sunday! They were obviously very busy but we did not suffer. She was efficient yet attentive-even heard me wish my husband a happy birthday and brought a delicious strawberry cheesecake. Thanks Nikita! We will be back. FYI they used to have a nice salad/soup bar but obviously aren't doing that due to the pandemic. You get a very small tray with crackers but also get bread and either soup or salad. Making it safe yet still enjoyable :) read more

This review makes me sad, because Marty's has a lot going for it. It's a vintage supper club 10 minutes north of Minocqua. They have live piano music and all the supper club classics. On the plus side - excellent rumaki app and a very tender filet, served perfectly medium. My husband gave his whitefish and brandy old fashioned two thumbs up as well. Our server was very busy but was really nice and kept the Misters drink filled. The minus - a weak relish tray (just crackers and a spread - no veggies), upcharging for "baked onion" soup when the baked part was a slice of toasted baguette with a sneeze of cheese. I'd you're going to charge me, and we're in WI, there better be a scandalous amount of cheese on that crock. Most importantly, I can't support a place that AGGRESSIVELY flouts Covid restrictions. Not a single staffer or other customer had masks on. Tables were absolutely packed together and items were shared between tables (menus etc) with no cleaning in between. It appears the owners want to pretend this pandemic is a joke. Frankly, if they don't give a shit about customer and employee safety, I don't give a shit about writing a good review. I'm sorry that we stayed and gave them our money. It was 8pm and there wasn't much else available, but I won't ever go back. read more

Decent Supper Club to go on a Sunday night when most clubs are closed. We had a reservation for a party of 10 for which they managed to sit us together. The décor is nice and rustic which is a plus. The food was very good (extremely large portions). 6 of us had the walleye, 2 pork chop and 2 the chicken marcella. The pan seared walleye was excellent, but my husband had the stuffed walleye which he said ruined the fish with too much sauce so as to drown out the walleye flavor. Me and my son had the chicken Marcella which was excellent. The big negative was the noise level and the service. Our server took our drink orders. When she got to my husband he ordered Macallans scotch and he tried to tell her he wanted it with only a splash of water, she made it obvious (as she walked off) that she did not care. The drink arrived in a glass full of ice. We told her that was not what we ordered and we wanted a splash of water. The drink returned and the good scotch was ruined with a large amount of water (we think they simply strained the drink into a new glass). Also, only a few of us had appetizer and salad plates bussed. With that said, all in all I would go back with a smaller group. read more

Such a wonderful Wisconsin experience!! So glad we were able to enjoy a night there. Ambiance and drinks and food was fantastic

Just reopened, had been there several times before and love the decor and setting. Food and service were great

We were excited to dine again at the re-opened Marty's, and it lived up to our expectations after some 40yrs of memorable meals. Currently reservations-only, it was packed, and we waited a few minutes before landing two seats at the bar to grab a well-executed press Old Fashioned and Knob Creek Manhattan. Plus, we had very pleasant conversations with our bartender and the manager. Decor in the bar area and up in the dining room seemed unchanged from our memories, and the lighting remains warm and inviting with their vintage fixtures. For dinner, our server was so pleasant and helpful. Some may be a little disappointed that, despite the signage and ambiance, Marty's isn't quite a classic supper club with relish tray, etc., instead now being an a la carte menu. That said we found the food to be mostly excellent and wines by the glass poured generously. My wife ordered a side salad and remarked on the freshness of the salad itself and the delicious Ranch dressing that tasted homemade. She and I also appreciated very much the pepper and salt grinders on the table, the pepper further enhancing my creamy garlic and mushroom soup. The bread service was only adequate and the only minor disappointment. Entrees of walleye almondine and schnitzel were both also excellent, as was our side of "haystack" onions rings. Finally, we finished with a solid chocolate dessert. Overall, the renewed Marty's exceeded our expectations, and we look forward to returning to make more memories! read more

Another awesome dinner and experience at Marty's North , thanks Andrea. Our server, a seven year veteran, Audrey, is simply the best. Our table enjoyed escargot and bacon wrapped dates for appetizers; perch, walleye, chef Jason's Chicken Carbonara, and Chicken Oscar. Everything was excellent, complemented by deliciously fresh house salads and their roasted pepper, cream soup. Of course, plenty on adult beverages were enjoyed - especially "Wisconsin in a glass" , the Marty Old Fashioned - delicious. Thanks again Andrea and Audrey for making our evening special. read more

Drinks were good walleye fingers were ok, soups were average. The small tuna macaroni salad and horseradish spreadable cheese was the best part of my meal. These two items were delicious on the snack tray I would have been happy with this. The liver pate was meh, no flavor like back home. Ordered the chicken Marsala and it wasn't Marsala it was more like creamy garlic sauce with no hint of Marsala. My filet came out well done when I asked for medium. By the time I got my replacement steak I wasn't hungry anymore. Steak doesn't have much flavor, no drizzled butter or Demi on the plate either. Pretty blah. Probably won't be back. Our waitress also didnt like the fact that we asked her to come back because we werent ready to order, she turned around and left in a huff. For the prices they charge they want to give me an attitude? I dont think so. I'll go back to Blink Bonnie instead, we are always treated with such great attitudes there, and waaaay better steak! read more

Made it a point to stop by and have dinner since it was on our list of places to go. Great setting in the woods and a gorgeous bar upon entering. Had a couple cocktails at the bar for a pregame and was seated later (but we were early fir our reservations). Nice dinner menu and went with a steak which was quite good. Waited for the dessert menu but the waitress just plopped the bill down and that was that - ok then. read more

This is one of the best supper clubs up north! This was my second time here and it is always a delight. Our server Keri was very nice and for a big group our food came out pretty quick. They serve a relish tray and basket of buns and mini muffins before hand. I am in love with the dill dip that comes on the relish tray, it also comes with veggies, crackers, liver patay, and horseradish cheese dip. For dinner, I got the 6oz filet Oscar style with garlic mashed potatoes and a salad. All of their salad dressings are made in house, the garlic peppercorn was very good! The filet was cooked to perfection and I would recommend the au gratin instead of the mashed, but the mashed was still good. I also got to try the lobster tail and I love that they bring a little burning candle holder with melted butter for the lobster. Everything was outstanding!!! read more

So bad. Manager, who goes by the name of Andrea, is extremely rude. Would not let me order a burger because Im "too old". I'm sorry, I didn't know I was too old to eat a cheese burger. She then told us that supper clubs do not serve cheeseburgers to adults. But, processed to allow the tables next to us to order burgers. Kick Rocks. They also brought out escargot without any snail in it. When we asked to talk to the manger at the end of dinner, she was extremely rude and told us to go eat at the barn instead. What manger tells this customers to go eat at a barn. read more
