    Amazing views and fun bar to spend a relaxing night. Kid friendly and live music options. Amazing place to spend a summer evening. With great views of the water and close to downtown, this is a great place to cool down. The outdoor patio has mist-ers so it stays cool. Food was decent. Bar food and a bit overpriced but it is the Dells. Service is minimal since you order at the bar but the patio makes up for it. The drinks are very sugary but they have a nice selection of beers and seltzers.

    I stopped by on a Saturday afternoon before the crowd started. The place had good vibes. I went for a Hawt motha cluk'er sandwich and waffle fries. It was a good one. Ambience of the place was really good. There were some good outdoor seats.

    Stopped in here for some cocktails and sit down time. The Bloody Mary was DELICIOUS, but other than that, not much to write about. The outdoor area is nice if you can get a spot in the shade. The service is non-existent as you go up and order, then go pick up your order. Not a bad place, but not great either.

    Visiting on vacation and this actually was our favorite spot of the trip for Wisconsin Dells. Easy to order and then just find a good seat. Food is made fresh! Perfect coming right off the Dells Boat Tour. Ideal spot for good food and GREAT view. Highly recommend HAWT MOTHA CLUK'ER. Crispy chicken tenders, homemade cabbage slaw, and fresh green onion on a brioche bun. We will be back when visiting this state again.

    While the location is great with amazing views the same cannot be said for the menu prices and drinks. While I understand the Dells is a tourist area, the price of food is ridiculous! A taco salad with meat is $18 and it's about 6 oz of food with barley any lettuce. The lavender mojito was better last year. They changed the formula and now it tastes terrible.

    Chicken Sweet CLUK'ER

    Come for drinks and that's it. The drinks are ok. But is more like fast food than an urban concept. I order the Sweet CLUK'ER and was even a drop of sweet dressing In there, cold fries and bad customer service experience. Definitely don't even close to the photos to they show in the menu and in his advertising. No flavor, cold food definitely don't come to eat. Maybe to the bar and the view.

    Food was very marginal. Service was slow and they messed up our order. The drinks are overpriced and weak. The view of the river is lovely.

    Know before you go…read more.. Let's just start by saying that I am a big fan of German food, and given that there just so few German restaurants around, when I find one I get excited to try it. Initially, I was hoping to dine here with my wife on a Monday evening, but the online hours said they were closed. So we drove downtown into the Dells to search out somewhere to eat. As we drove past Hofbrewzhaus, I saw that they were actually open, so we excitedly parked and walked over. The exterior is really nicely done, and it looks modern and up-to-date, as if someone was really excited about what they were doing. Having heard they had 30 or so German beers, I was excited to try something I don't often get. My first hint that something was odd was when we walked in the door, and the wall in front of us was done up with Colombian flags and other such South American decorations. I was confused, but we continued in to the bar area, where we met a friendly Colombian (?) woman wearing a t-shirt that said "Prost!" Businesses in the Dells are known for having a lot of foreign employees, so again, this didn't throw me off too much. She sat us at a table, and served us, and was very friendly and sweet the whole time. We tipped her well. When we opened our menus, however, I quickly noted that page 1 was German food (and it was a somewhat limited menu), and page 2 was Colombian food (and it was a jam-packed, extensive menu). I ordered beer, and it took about 5 tries to pick something they actually had! Somehow, I managed to pick--again and again--the beers they were out of. Bit of a bummer, but I suppose it happens. Still, it's never a good feeling when you can't trust the menu... Anyway, I got schnitzel and my wife got something Colombian. I had ordered the schnitzel sandwich (which was around $14) and was served the actual schnitzel entree (which was $22)...but oh well. Look, none of this is really a complaint...service was good, the food was ultimately fine. The beer (once I found one they had) was good. But it was nothing special. And if you're looking for an authentic German experience, this was about as authentically German as the kids running around Wizard Quest down the street are authentically wizards. About as authentically German as Mt. Olympus Waterpark is authentically ancient Greek. About as authentically German as Kalahari Resort is an authentically southern Africa safari experience. Which...I suppose...fits the Dells...

    I read the reviews before coming here. My husband didn't. Hence this mess of a review…read more I don't enjoy giving one-Star reviews. You'll see I rarely give them. I was a business owner and I know that kind of thing can hurt. But there comes a time.... It would appear that this used to be a very good German restaurant. The building has exquisite bones, with German murals on the wall etc. there's an adorable outdoor area that looks like a German fest. Idk what exactly happened, but presumably it's what's happened to many German restaurants. They were started many years ago by immigrants and then eventually the line died out or lost interest. I'm assuming it was bought by a family from Colombia. Who for an unfathomable reason must have thought "we'll still keep the German restaurant but just add a Colombian menu too." Which really wouldn't stress me if they cooked both foods well. You do you. But when they cook German food so poorly as to make it inedible, then I get pissed off, because food is super expensive now and you've just made me waste $50 on horrible food. No! There was absolutely nothing on the menu for a vegetarian to eat besides an $18 salad or cheese curds. I went with them figuring I'd just eat later at home. Hubs ordered his favorite German meal, chicken with gravy and spaetzle. The gravy tastes like they opened a jar, the meat was anemic and he described it as floppy. Had barely any coating. And the spaetzle was inedible. It's his favorite thing. He always orders extra. The place was like a ghost town and now I know why. Believe it. Supposedly the Colombian food is better so just dump the German part and make it a Colombian restaurant if you enjoy that. If you like German food I wouldn't recommend eating here.

    We were staying in the area before graduation at UW-Madison and needed some late night eats on a…read moreFriday around 9pm. A group of six of us walked in, sat ourself, and I asked a bartender if the kitchen was open. There were two guys behind the bar. They looked at each other and gave a nod. The younger guy said yes, but we are out of the fish fry. No problem for us. We were served by the younger guy and he was friendly, attentive, and didn't treat us as second class as most of our group took water while I had a couple beers. It was pretty quiet when we arrived. We tried a couple apps, and a few different burgers and fried shrimp. Having read about the steak burger, we had high expectations but it fell a bit flat. Others mentioned a sauce, but there wasn't any in ours. The burger with bacon and jalapeño was a banger though! Onion rings and fries were excellent. The curds were good, but I've had better. When it came time to close the check, our server met me as I jumped off my stool. I don't know his name, but gave him a 25% tip. Wish he worked at my place! For the Dells, the price is very reasonable in my opinion. As we were leaving things were lighting up, and getting loud. I got the impression the kitchen was closing even though they say they are open late as the older guy was grumbling about only having two people working. As an owner of a cocktail bar I get that things happen, but I don't like my employees getting upset about it. The younger guy kept his cool - even if he was hoping for more. I do plan to go back for another service and ask about the sauce on the steak burger. Felt weird to talk about it before getting it the way I assume they serve it. Our son is staying for grad school so we have an excuse to try again!
