    I have been there on two occasions, the first just drinks and apps, the second was yesterday after…read moregolf with a few college buddies. Both times we had friendly service with good drinks and good food. The appetizers, on trip one were fresh and tasty and our food after golf was very good. For the most part, they serve bar food but they have specials which included spaghetti or lasagna yesterday and they, of course, do fish fry Friday and Prime rib on Saturday. Worth a stop if in the Beaver Dam area!

    We stop in here from time to time as we live a few times over, and this time we were NOT impressed…read more The bartender was awesome, however very busy as there was no server and she had a full bar and 5/6 tables. I ordered my burger med rare (which I eat everywhere) and it was RAW (pictured with the chips, as I pulled all the raw meat out and showed the bartender). I was absolutely disgusted. I didn't get my food until the other 3 I was with were almost finished eating. The other burger pictured was supposed to be med well and was not. The bartender handled the situation very well, she comped my burger and took half off the one that was supposed to be med well. The thing that sent me over the edge was she was supposed to split tips with the cook. I didn't see him helping her as he was busy in the kitchen, but I have experience in the industry and simply do not agree with that. Our tip reflected the bartender, not the cook. Hopefully it gets better next time!

    First time coming here and had a bad experience. We waited over an hour for simple orders. I waited…read more15 minutes for 1 beer and forgot I ordered another one. They also completely forgot about one of our orders. They got a simple kids chicken tender meal wrong. It took another 20 minutes for the waitress to bring our bill after we asked for it. (Wasn't even busy) Food - 1 Star. Food was either too salty or had no flavor. Almost everything was microwaved and still cold in the middle. Service - 2 Stars. Waitress and waiters got our orders wrong and forgot orders. They took an exaggerated amount of time to give us one refill and our check. Our waitress did understand the inconvenience and didn't charge us for drinks. Atmosphere- 3 Stars. It wasn't too bright or dark. The seats are comfortable and the dining area was clean. Plenty of TVs with sports on. The bar area would be the only place I would come back to.

    So we tried this new location not long after it first opened and everything was great. We decided…read moreto come out tonight for a family night since we haven't had one in a while and we will not be back. First off, our waitress acted like we ruined her day for coming in and making her do something. And it was literally dead when we walked in. Between her tone, slouching off and facial expressions, she was not thrilled at all to be there. Secondly, the food was HORRID and that's saying it nicely. The rice that came with my chicken was so old and dried out, I couldn't eat it...most of it was rock hard pieces. The spinach and artichoke dip, the chips were so old and stale, it literally felt like you were chewing on plastic. So we just ate the bland dip by itself. My daughter ordered the ribs and they came rock hard and BURNT... She couldn't even eat it. It was rock hard to where you couldn't chew it and it also looked like they literally just barbecue glazed straight bone. So not only did my child barely get anything to eat but we wasted that money too. When my husband brought it to the waitress attention she didn't even offer to take the meal off, and claimed they were supposed to be like that. Ridiculous.... Would not and will not recommend this place to ANYONE. Poor service AND food.

    The overall experience is pretty good, but I don't think I would consider anything exceptional. The…read moreservice was very friendly. A few things to note, their cocktail menu is amusing because their specialty drinks mostly seem to be five different standard recipes with slightly different preparations to turn them into Mojitos or spritzes or margaritas. Do you want something with blueberries? Pick your preparation. All of them are too sweet. Their peanut butter crème brûlée was tasty, but doesn't really qualify as a crème brûlée. It was basically a runny, peanut butter flavored almost pudding. Their pizzas were really good though. Frankly, I was most surprised by the ambience. For a place that looks so big from the outside. It seemed really cramped inside I walked around all of the seating areas and it was the same everywhere. While they bill themselves as being on the water, you really can't see the water from any seat in the house from what I observed, even if you're out on the deck, which is terribly uncomfortable in July. We actually were seated at possibly the worst table in the house. In a back corner behind the first floor bar next to a window that only showed you the backside of another building and a sliver of grass. The upstairs seating is truly undesirable because they've converted an area that wasn't meant to have tables in. It is super cramped up there and also everywhere on the first floor. The only place with a little bit of elbow room is the deck. You know a place is to cramped when the servers have to negotiate moving between tables to avoid patrons and other servers.

    The waterfront location is definitely the biggest draw here. Sitting outside overlooking the harbor…read moremakes for a really nice setting, especially during the summer. Unfortunately, the food just didn't live up to the view. We tried the nachos, mahi tacos and drinks, and while everything was fine, nothing really stood out. The flavors were what you'd expect from a lakeside bar. Service was very friendly, but overall the experience felt more like you're paying for the location than the food itself. I'd come back for a drink on the patio, but probably not for dinner.
