This place is kid friendly too!!! definitely make sure to go early, go up to the register outside the dining room, put in your order, get a number and enjoy a drink from the bar while you wait for your number to get your food and sit down in the dining room room. It's a fun concept and a nice place! (Also bonus, they have an arcade for your littles)!

I'd say this is more of a 2.5 but we did get the food to go so I will handicap to the 3 star…read more I cannot speak for the service or ambience but my understanding from the locals, it is a nice place to dine for what they consider 'fine dining' in the area. The positive was that my Filet Mignon was cooked to perfection and tasted as it should. The concerns were that while advertised as an 8 oz cut, there is zero chance of this, more like 5 oz. - I'd also say that the potatoes lacked any real depth, just an average potato - and lastly the side veggie was some very sad and bland half sized roasted squash that truly lacked inspiration. Again, I'm will to maybe let the veggie and the potatoes go, as they were a to go situation but the size of the steak and the portions in general underwhelmed for a $43 dish.

I love the pizza, burgers and Mac and cheese but my all time favorite is the beet risotto. It's my favorite dish in Central Wisconsin.

I hate leaving bad reviews, but our experience was awful. We have ordered takeout several times and…read morehave been happy, so we decided to eat in on a Saturday night a few weeks ago. We were seated immediately, but service was very slow. I ordered a bento box and my partner ordered a chicken dish. When my box came out 20 minutes later, our server informed us that they were out of what my partner ordered. He picked something else and they left me with my food. His then came 20-30 minutes later. By that point my meal was cold. His was also sloppily put together. I saw similar things happening to other couples. There was no apology, or offer for a discount. I haven't been this disappointed with service or a dining experience in a long time.

Service was outstanding!…read more I made a dinner reservation when we arrived in town after 5pm, [even though the website says reservations must be made before 5pm] and when we arrived, I was greeted by name. Waitress and bartender were very personable and helped us with our orders. Ambiance was super romantic, White tablecloths and napkins, low lighting and candles. Just the way we like it for dinner. Also, very quiet. Food was spectacular! I had surf and turf - plus the trimmings. Hubby had steak and trimmings. [I don't remember all the details because we went there in summer of 2025 - now it's Spring of 2026]. This was one of the most incredible dining experiences I've ever had - in the world!

Afterwards I ordered the blackened red snapper which was decent. Overall it's a nice place to go for the atmosphere and views.
