I have to jump this up to a full five stars. The brisket sandwich here is to kill for. We also had a great waitress who clued me in to a neat place in the area that I'd never heard of (non-restaurant). She also gave us a Remi's coozie for our wait, which wasn't bad at all. Love this place and will keep coming back! read more

Hand cut Steak sandwich the BOMB. Onion rings sweet & juicy. Duck wontons so unique.Honestly, I'd like to see a Duck Wonton Soup on a cold winters day. Its creamy & flavourful & such a comfort food. Spicy &sassy bloodies with a big ole chaser. But most importantly is the over-accommodating, eager to please staff. covid Sucked for many in the food/ bar industry. Please support this crew! They deserve it! read more

Fantastic find on our way through Wisconsin. Shayne helped us with our orders and we enjoyed our delicious food while watching the sunset. We'll definitely stop by again whenever we are in town. read more

Shane is awesome!! He suggested the best things on the menu and our group wasn't disappointed. We played a round a darts, ate some great food, and enjoyed some good beer. Great experience and would highly recommend! read more

Remi's Thirsty Moose - American Near Me - Poynette, Wisconsin

I would give Thirsty Moose 5 starts, but... First, google and other reviews said their hours were 11-2am on Sundays. We called them at 7:40 just to make sure the kitchen would be open (not uncommon for bars to close kitchens early often). I was told the kitchen closed at 8pm so we barely made it. I also wish they had an actual website to look at the menu and all the IPA's they had available because they seemed to have an Interesting variety. Interior was typical, nothing fancy shmancy. Would have given it 5 if those things were in place. Oh, and the extremely loud & foul mouthed local at the bar needed to be kindly cut off and sent home. He had just came in when we did so that's not the Moose's fault. Lol Now for the important stuff: The manager, Shane...was fantastic! When I called he was very kind to say he'd have no problem keeping the kitchen open for a few minutes longer so we could eat. We get there and right away got greeted by a kind waitress. Shane was so friendly and took our orders. The guy has a great personality! We ordered the roasted chicken (more like fried) but it was exceptional. So flavorful and crispy skin. Came with homemade sides. We also got the Ruben and Duck Wantons for the side. The Ruben could have been just a tad more toasted, but it had REAL corned beef. And the Duck Wantons...ugh...don't get me started! As my husband said, he's just glad he doesn't live closer or we'd be packing on a few winter pounds eating those daily! We would totally go back and enjoy some of the frozen lake weekend events Shane told us about. We also liked that he is a family man who spoke highly of his wife & gave up the Chicago rat-race so he could be with family and raise his kids. Yup, I'll support those efforts! read more

I will start by saying that we almost didn't eat here because we could not find the place. There was no sign on the road that we could find and it is kind of off the road a bit behind the boat launch. We thought maybe we missed it but when we left we looked again and couldn't find it. I want you to keep in mind while reading this review that this place is a bar, so we went into it with that mentality and that is what this review will be based on. We got there pretty much when they opened so it was a bit confusing because it looked like they were just getting things fired up. We asked if we could sit outside by the lake and we grabbed a couple menus. Very shortly after sitting down we were greeted by Helen our waitress. Helen was definitely one of the highlights of our visit. So friendly and when she found out we were not from the area she was a wealth of information and we had a very nice visit with her. I ordered a Philly cheesesteak and my wife ordered shrimp and fries. Neither of them were the best we have ever had but they were very good. We got the lobster bisque which was creamy and very flavorful but we didn't have any lobster in it. The atmosphere was pretty much a basic bar but the outside dining was very nice lakeside. We went into this expecting a bar experience and that is what we got, don't expect much from the menu you are going to get what I consider above average bar food. When we are in the area we would go back, super friendly people and a nice location on Lake Wisconsin. read more

So we came here for some food and drinks ,even that food was to late to get Candes made us pizza and some great old fashioned,thank you guys !Manager was a nice man,with whom we chat and he even apologized that kitchen was close :)Great time,looking forward to get some food here read more

This place is definitely a hidden gem. Driving back from Minneapolis to Milwaukee, we decided to find a non-chain restaurant to catch some lunch between the Dells & Madison. About 5 minutes off of I-94, we are so glad we found Remi's! Located on beautiful Lake Wisconsin, not only is the view great, so is the food, atmosphere & staff. My husband had the steak sandwich (the owner apparently just cut up the steaks that morning). It was done to perfection. I had the boneless wings with the spicy chilly sauce. I love boneless wings and these by far were some of the best I've ever eaten. Our 15-year-old ordered the Mac & cheese bites and was in heaven. I would say my favorite part of our experience was the staff and the amazing service we had. Although we had never been there before, we were treated as though we were regulars. You can tell they take great pride in the food they serve and the service they provide. Because of it all, we will definitely be back, most likely with our friends, to spend a weekend or two taking in the fun winter and summer events they either host or partake in. read more

Best place ever! Food and staff are amazing!! Awesome atmosphere right on Lake Wisconsin. Tiki bar in the summer! Go by car or boat! You won't be disappointed! read more

We decided to stop on our way up north and it was so amazing we had to stop again on our way home! The moose burger is so juicy with brisket and bacon on top. The staff is extremely friendly and the variety of beers is great. This will definitely be a stop we make often! I highly recommend stopping by, you won't be disappointed. read more

We stopped in one night for some drinks and had the best service and conversation with the bartender Shane. He stayed open late for us, extremely hospitable. We came back the next night for fish fry and a Philly cheesesteak. Food was amazing. Service was outstanding. Would definitely recommend. Will be back! Can't wait to see how it is in the summer! read more

I got the bull moose burger with lettuce tomato grilled onion, mushroom and green pepper and jalapeños without a bun. The burger was perfectly cooked medium rare and it was possibly the best burger I've ever eaten. The atmosphere is great, perfect view of the lake, service is excellent, everyone was super friendly, excellent beer selection and they were incredibly accommodating of my food sensitivities. They made sure I didn't miss anything with my meal. Shane was the best bartender /server. We live 5 hours away but we will be back, a lot. read more

What an awesome experience. Cheese curds best ever. My Mooseburger was great. Service was awesome. Go it is awesome !!!!!!

Really cool place off the lake you have great views and very friendly bartenders. I got the Reuben sandwich but there was way too much sauerkraut on it so it kind of made it soggy and really overpowered the taste of the meat. If I was in that area I would definitely go back. read more

I love this place!!! Very inviting staff that are willing to help you find and choose the perfect meal!!! Our bartender Candace was helpful, funny and fast! That woman can hustle! We love coming in and having her serve us! read more

Fantastic people! Great food! Awesome selection of beer! I highly recommend you come here and enjoy. We loved our 1/3 lb and 1/2 lb burgers. Next time we will order the Philly Cheese Steaks. read more

Wow! I did not expect the food to be SO GOOD! Not only that, but the service was phenomenal...Thank you, Shane, for taking such good care of our party of 10. I had the Lobster bisque soup, philly cheese steak, and cheese curds. I think that was the best philly I've ever had...even better than in Philadelphia. read more

Hold the phone and swipe right for Remi's Thirsty Moose. We were there on a cold fall evening. I'd love to return on a nice day to better enjoy their location and outdoor seating. At our table we ordered a steak salad, fish fry, and children's hamburger. Zip - zap - zoom. All three entrees went above and beyond our expectations. Thank you Remi, I hope your moose stays thirsty for many years to come. read more

The food, beer and atmosphere were amazing! As soon as I walked in the door I was welcomed as though they knew me. Their bar has the largest and highest quality craft beer selection that I have ever seen! The bartender was extremely friendly and willing to help find a beer just for you, especially if you want to try something new! For food I ordered the Bull Moose Burger. It was hands down one of the best burgers I have ever had!! If you like good food, craft beer, and a fun friendly atmosphere, this is your place!! read more

I'm new to the area and Thirsty Moose was the only place that was friendly. Around here, if you're not a local, or known by the locals, you would have a better chance getting a date with Katy Perry before getting served. Not the case here. The staff was attentive and kept the drinks coming. I had a Moose Dog to eat. That's a all beef hot dog, with pepers, brisket, and some other stuff I can't remember. What I do remember is the awesome taste. Well worth the trip. read more

Stopped for lunch. 2 big blondes at the bar. Nobody else but the bartender, the daughter of the owner, the man who makes the chili. Great chili. Good perch basket. The best smoked salmon sandwich I've ever eaten! Cherry smoked bacon squared the treat. Not on your way to MN? Leave the route for a delightful lunch. Pretend life is worth taking the time to enjoy it. read more

We love this place. The bartender/owner is the nicest guy on the planet. You can tell he's really proud of their food and a lot of thought goes into the menu. All of the food is really good. The moose burger is crazy good, loved the brisket. The reuben is honestly one of the best reuben's I've ever had. The fish fry is very good, I'd recommend the cod over the perch which I usually never would. The moose sauce is boss, put it on everything. Good beer selection. They always have sports on. The location is money, right on the lake. They usually have live music on the weekends and there's always something going on. This is a staple of the region. If you are in the area or on Lake Wisconsin do yourself a favor and go to the moose. read more

Family owned for three years. Helen our server was great and is a Packer fan...Ok just finished the best burger I have had in years. A bacon brisket pepper jack Burger! Fantastic, not fast because each burger started out raw... come in you will not regret it. read more

This place was awesome! We came with a party of 20 after skiing, they were so accommodating and welcoming even without a reservation. The waitress and manager were so great and so good with the little kids. Best of all the food was amazing!! The moose dog was a big hit with everyone.

This place would be awesome if we were here in the summer. We're here on January 1st and the appetizers alone are worth a five star review. Jalapeño cheese balls and deep fried green beans, fantastic. Then the main course came, hot beef sandwich is actually hot. Burger was great and the gyro was very serviceable for a bar. Worth the 30 minute drive. read more

Remi's Thirsty Moose - Size of my daughters head. - American Near Me - Poynette, Wisconsin

My husband and I stopped on our way to the Dell's. We sat outside and the view was lovely, and serene. The water is gorgeous. The waitress was extremely friendly and welcoming ( thanks Tracy). We shared duck wontons that were really nice and flavorful. My husband thouroughly enjoyed his Korean barbeque soup. It was hearty and super tasty. I had the smoked salmon BLT with sweet potato fries. The portion was hearty, the sandwich was fresh and not soggy. The smoked salmon was a real winner. We will be back if we're ever in the area again. Worth the quick detour!!! read more

Quintessential Wisconsin restaurant. Great Bloody Mary, great breasted chicken, and a pretzel with cheddar cheese baked on. Also the service rocks. Amazing. read more

Went here after hiking at a nearby park due to the overall positive reviews. Waited 10 minutes to be told the bartender would be with us in a minute then waited 5 minutes until someone finally helped. After being helped we we're told there would be no table service and we would have to order at the bar. After finally getting our order in we waited another 20 minutes for food that was okay at best. Would not recommend spending your time or money at this establishment. read more

Met here with some co-workers after an evening on the lake. What a diamond in the rough! The food selection is great (we had cheese curds because when in Rome) and I had the Cayenne Kicker sandwich, but the beer selection is amazing. My only gripe was I wish they had more tap beer, but 130 different bottles is good enough for me! read more

Amazing beer amazing bar tenders and I love Wisconsin people! They are so nice. Love the spotted cow and the Wisconsin snowshoe.

Excellent food, great service, awesome views. They are dog friendly, can have dog tied at table.

The food is always great! We have been going here since we moved to Lodi last summer. The staff is always so friendly and they make you feel important even though it's only to go. I definitely recommend the burgers and ask for the homemade Russian dressing to dip the fries in or add to the burger. So good! read more

Great stop on our road trip. Great food and service. Food was well prepared and hot. Generous portions with lots of choices. Service was just as good and very friendly. read more

My entire family absolutely loves this place!!!! Looking forward to several visits this summer season while boating.

Great atmosphere, great food, great staff, and a great view. I highly recommend this place. Unless you have no soul you won't be disappointed. read more

On another of our weekly New Food Thursday road trip meals, we found Remi's Thirsty Moose. This spot is generally quiet, has some moose heads on the wall as expected, and the food was decent. It wasn't amazing, as my burger was missing some flavor. Even the ranch they put on the table was pretty bland. However, the baby Bella fried mushrooms were pretty tasty! read more

Everything we've tried is excellent. All soups are unique and tasty. The Philly is a must. Staff is friendly and welcoming. You will feel right at home. read more
