We drove through Cumberland and looked for a spot to eat. I found Nezzy's on Yelp and decided to…read moregive it a try based on the reviews. The restaurant is actually located in the back of the building. We parked street side since the back was full from festival ride and food trucks setting up for an event. The place was busy. Not a seat left at the bar. The tables were pretty full so we immediately thought we made a great decision stopping at Nexxy's. Unfortunately it took a while for the server to come by our table. That was okay but she immediately went to handle tables of locals she obviously knew that walked in after us. When the sever took our order she didn't seem very happy but we smiled and tried to be as friendly as we could and she warmed up. For being so busy, our server was the only server on duty. I believe the owner had to com out and help. We ordered cocktails and our server made sure they were made correctly which was great. We split the bacon burger and a large pepperoni & olive pizza. The burger was dry, we ordered a medium burger but it appeared to be a frozen patty so obviously there is no way to make it medium. The thin crust pizza was not crispy but soggy, however it did have decent flavor. We would have ordered more drinks but the server never came back to ask us if we wanted another drink, she just dropped off the check and walked away. This is definitely a locals spot so you will get great service if they know you. If you're not a local, you may be waiting a while.

We borrowed a cabin from family for the weekend and just google searched a place for dinner. We were lucky enough to end up here, where the owner sat down to talk with us as we ordered, tell us her favorites and what the specials were. Our food was great, the root beer ice cold, and the atmosphere was perfect. The music was great and we didn't really want to leave. But the staff made it wonderful and we cannot wait to go back and try more food. We missed the chili cookoff, but hopefully next year!

She told us The Northern and to make sure to order the cheese curds. Looking at the menu before hitting the road again, sis and I knew the place was for us: burgers, sandwiches and wraps. Pulling into the parking lot was easy. Even though looked full, we were still able to find a spot. I want to note the gorgeous view of the red barn/farm across from the pond when pulling in. I noticed a patio on the North side of the building, which would put this farm in your view. We did have about a 20 minute wait for a table for 2. The restaurant looked busy from what I could see. Once we were brought to out table, I then noticed that the bar seating was pretty much open. Had I known, we might have elected to just sit at the bar. However, I asked for menus right away so that we could at least ponder it during that 20 minutes. We were sat at a high top right near the kitchen door. Being able to see all the food come out, I changed my mind on what I was going to order almost 10 times. We asked for the cheese curds as soon as we were greeted by our waitress. OMGosh! They were in the shape of cubes, deep fried to golden perfection. The outside had perfect firmness from the fryer. The inside was gooey, salty white cheese. Perfect just by itself. It did come with a ranch dipping sauce that was just so yummy. It reminded me a seasoned sour cream. The waitress didn't know the brand of the cheese curds (ie. Ellsworth) but did say the ranch was homemade Sis ordered the Great Northern Burger with French fries. She's a fan of BBQ sauce, bacon and onion rings on a burger. Fries were nicely seasoned, long, soft and semi-skin-on (not crinkle or steak fries). Burger was huge and worth the $15.99 price tag. I settled on the BOTM, the Nacho Burger, with tator tots. Toppings included nacho cheese, Fritos chips, bacon, diced/sliced jalapenos. The tator tots were one of the best I've ever had. Again, seasoned nicely. And the perfect ratio of hard outside crunch to soft inside potato. The Nacho burger was huge too....and messy with the nacho cheese. The Fritos did get a little soggy at the end. The bacon was under the melted cheese. And there were plenty of jalapenos hidden under the meat patty. Those were easy to discard so I could control how many fiery peppers were in my mouth at one time. Was service slower than normal? Yes. Was the service friendly? Yes. Was it worth the wait? Also YES! I would definitely recommend (I already have to my coworkers.) for anyone who loves gourmet burgers. They also have a nice variety to the sandwich, wraps, tacos and flatbread menu. I will just have to take the 40 minute drive again to try something else.
