Update to my review from a year ago. Everything here is still excellent. Super friendly staff,…read morenice ambiance. I could curl up in a corner and read a book. We are not locals but there were a few in here with their laptops. My husband and I both had the special oatmeal this time. It comes with Carmel, butter, walnuts and pecans and cut up apple. A little pitcher of milk to pour over the top finished it off. My husband had an Apple fritter calling his name and I had a bite. It arrived warm and soft and was delicious. My husband got a dark roast which is his to go to and a large dark roast with a shop of expresso for the road. He say great coffee. If it wasn't we wouldn't be coming back even if the food is awesome. I don't drink coffee (still thinking about a way to learn to like it because I feel like I'm missing out). I use to drink cold chai tea but recently have a sensitivity to black tea and most of the spices in chai so I am having an awesome hot chocolate with hazelnut/vanilla and whipped cream.. Yum.

The customer service sucked, we were waiting in what we thought was the line but after about 15…read moreminutes of waiting we asked what the wait time is and they said that it was a line of people who put their names on a wait list and then when we went to put our names on the list they said they weren't taking anymore names because they needed to let their servers catch up and they won't be letting anyone put their names on the list for another hour so we decided to leave. Keep in mind that we come at least once a year and they never had not accepted names onto their wait list but I understand that the servers were running behind but we were waiting for 15 minutes and they didn't even bother to tell us that they weren't accepting names onto the wait list. So for the future I would hope they would let waiting customers know if they aren't accepting names to be added to the wait list.

We also had the corn beef, hash eggs, Benedict, which was an extremely generous person and very tasty. Alyssa M. was very attentive in her service, friendly, and a nice cadence of service.

Sep 2022 - Now Dee Dee's Diner Great place... worth it being…read morecash only Split the BLT and the Reuben with our group along with regular and garlic cheese curds. BLT was very well prepared with just the right amount/ratio of key ingredients (inc ample amounts of bacon) and mayonnaise. In short the BLT is exactly the way your perfect idea of a grandmother would make a BLT for her favorite grandchild. The Reuben is classically done and the best you'll find outside of a serious delicatessen. Both garlic and regular cheese curds were well batter fried and tasted flavorful and 'squeaky'. Stop here... you won't regret

We've tried the restaurant once before and thought to give it another chance. Same. Maybe one day they will figure it out. We are locals and we can use a quality competitor since they're the only came in town.

Average Chinese buffet but food is hot and fresh. The ambiance is quiet with servers and staff…read moremostly ignoring customers in the sense that you are not necessarily greeted when entering or leaving the restaurant. They are quick to pick your plate up off the table and to give you your bill, almost like they don't want you sitting there too long to go back for seconds. They have a soft serve ice cream machine but it was out of order. I didn't take any desserts but others in our party did and they were average. They seemed to have a steady business on a Sunday afternoon. I would go back if I had a craving for Chinese as the food is satisfactory. Drinks are not included with the buffet.

My favorite place to eat in Minocqua :) plenty of options from the buffet for dine in or take out…read more They typically also have a (very basic) sushi roll available at their cold bar which I appreciate. Also plenty of little desserts that especially kids seem to enjoy. My favorite is a little fried bun they have that gives a donut vibe (pictured in carry out pic). Building is maybe a bit old and could use some love but it doesn't impact the food quality. Staff is small, they seat you and check on you periodically but don't expect to be waited on like a traditional restaurant. They come to drop off your check about the time you finish your first plates but that does not mean you need to rush out right away!
