Everyone was so friendly and tge kids could run around and play, which we always enjoy seeing. But if you read my reviews, you wanna know about the food: Homemade Ranch - homemade says it all. Delish. Potatoe Salad - good, different, not stellar. Sweet Potato Fries - great side. Gunsight Burger - good, hearty, good flavor. Bandit Burger - spicy version of their burger. Beer - Cold Smoke, my wife loved this beer. Like I said, fun venue, good service, great atmosphere.

On our last night in the area, we had to try Gunsigbt Saloon. It was highly recommended by the…read morelocals with good food and live music. It was popular, so the line to order was long but went through fairly quick. Food and drinks are different lines. When you get your order in, find a table and the beeper will page you when it's ready. We got burgers, one with fries and with the watermelon. Burgers were delicious. Cooked smashed style, they had nice crispy edges. Watermelon was fresh and juicy. Fries were crispy. Great dinner. While the food is good, the music was even better. It was a solo guitarist who sang classic country. He was great. Many were sending up tips with a request and he did a great job of being able to handle most requests. The outdoor setting was awesome and the stage allowed everyone to see the entertainment. On street parking was easy. Great stop.

Our family of three adults and a toddler came for Mothers Day dinner…read more We ordered three pasta dishes, a side of broccolini, tiramisu, and lemon marscapone cake. The broccoli was just a tad underdone to our liking but we were in euphoria over our pastas. My tiramisu was good, overly sweet and would have loved more of that bitter coffee flavor. The lemon cake was so good my son stole it from my mother in law. Our server was David. He was on fire, running in this tiny space to us and all of his other tables, making drinks, taking orders, etc. Chef PorkChop was AMAZING. The amount of communication, leadership, and attitude that man has is astounding. If our family finds any time out of our busy schedules, we will absolutely be back.

Respectable Americanized Italian, great customer service, fair prices, huge wine selection, and all-around nice atmosphere makes Mambo one of the most consistent restaurants in WF. We've been visiting WF for 10 years and always make it a point to stop into Mambo because it never disappoints. Definitely recommend a reservation because it's a quaint place and gets really busy on the weekends and peak seasons.

I'm a fan of pickle chips and don't generally care for the fried spears but these fries are great! The ranch is home made, also very good, we asked for extra. My husband ordered a mushroom Swiss burger and I ordered the bulldog burger. Both very good. You order, pay and it's brought to your table. Bar tab is separate. We're here on a Sunday evening after 8p and it's fairly full- we'll hang out a bit longer and order a second round. Cheers!

Typically, I like my filets without a sauce, but it was cooked to perfection and the sauce was a nice touch. My friend's chicken was cooked just right and flavorful. The meals were nicely presented. The service was super friendly and checked on us in a timely manner. The space is well open and has plenty of seating. Would come back again.

The shrimp were not the best bust were from Florida. The burger was fantastic, except for the bottom bun was soggy. I removed it and ate with a knife and fork. So delicious.

This is a few weeks old but want to share our experience at The Boat Club…read more It was a beautiful warm day. We stopped in at The Tiki Bar at The Boat Club after a long hike at Whitefish Mountain. We walked up to the hostess and even though there were tables available, she said nothing was available at the time. No problem. We thought perhaps they were short staffed but noticed they had several servers standing around. Perhaps it was our shorts and hiking shoes? After all, everyone else was dressed to impress in their swimsuits and coverups. It wouldn't be a big deal but she sat several people that walked up behind us at those tables. No, they didn't have reservations. Okay.... We saw there was couch seating available just outside the hostess stand and asked to sit there and she said yes. It was actually the perfect spot. In the shade and a beautiful view of the boat marina and Whitefish Lake. Our server was Ainsley who was very sweet and an excellent server. She made drink and appetizer recommendations. Ainsley was very friendly, engaging and never left us waiting. We started with the Tiki Punch, which is the popular cocktail on the menu as well as the Full Send which is a rum and espresso cocktail. Both were delicious but $15 for a small cocktail is too much. For appetizers we ordered Mezze Platter and charcuterie board. Again, both were tasty.

The most perfect hash browns I have ever had, expertly and lightly crisped. I had the avocado, cheddar, and egg burrito, though as a scramble without the tortilla, and it was also perfectly cooked with generous cheese and avocado. Huckleberries were a tasty addition to my husband's pancakes, for a little extra charge. Service was very attentive and very fast. It's a small place with log cabin ambience but clean and cozy. It's a little hard to spot - check out outdoor photos so you know what you're looking for. Worth a visit if you're in the area. If we come back here, we know where we'll have breakfast!
