We got the wedding of our dreams from Stonewall Farms.

They have a wedding planner included, Liz, and she is wonder woman! The entire venue is beautiful with so much to do and see. While the venue is already beautifully decorated as you can see in photos and comes with so many decorations, we also brought our own and they helped set it up for us! They have a fantastic reputation and working relationship with the vendors in the area too, so catering and other vendors went without a hiccup because of the seasoned experience everyone has out there. Many of our guests told us it was the most beautiful wedding they'd ever been to, all because of the venue and the owners and their team. It's unique, classy, elegant, and so fun! We didn't need it, but they did have the option to move the ceremony indoors as well. Don't hesitate to plan a short road trip out to see the location for yourself, you won't regret it!

I really wanted to like this place. The vibe is awesome & the partially open kitchen is cool but…read morethe service was incredibly lacking & the food was mostly sub par. We visited for lunch and the restaurant was about half full. Our server however, was often nowhere to be found & we had to have the food runner attempt to help us on more than one occasion. Even then, we still seemingly couldn't get them to bring us plates for the cornbread. Trying to pay the tab took nearly 15 minutes of just trying to flag her down. My husband ordered their burger & the fries that initially came out with it were super undercooked. My shrimp po boy had a skewer inside the sandwich (not holding the bread together but running the length of the bread.) My mother in law did say her gumbo was amazing & their cornbread was delicious but I just don't think we'll be back, it really was nothing to rave about, even if they were just having an off day.

We drove 2 hours for our anniversary for a New Orleans meal…read more The Blackberry Highball is very sour and not so fruity. We started with the Boudin Balls and Hush Puppies - both very good. My husband had the Red Beans and Rice and really enjoyed it. Lots of meat in it. I was hoping for Crafish Étouffée but it isn't on the menu any longer. So I ordered the Shrimp Étouffée. Very disappointed. Only 5 small chunks of shrimp. It also has a sort of poblano verde sauce or maybe a poblano Maque Choux without the corn. Lots of celery. And the small amount of rice. I didn't eat much of it, after the shrimp was gone it was just bad sauce. A wasted $21. The cornbread was nice with honey butter. We split the bread pudding for dinner and it is excellent - DON'T MISS IT! Service was excellent. Especially the bus boy / water refiller. P.S. They don't do anything for anniversaries. Not sure if we will drive over 2 hours each way for Étouffée that was mediocre. The Crawfish Étouffée was excellent last time.

The server was very rude! My walleye was terrible, not that she took the time to ask us how our…read morefood was. The soup on the salad bar was terrible. And when I told her my walleye was terrible she walked away without saying anything. She took 10% off our bill and still didn't apologize. This is the 2nd time we've been there and the first time was no better. Needless to say we won't be going back. The only reason I gave it 2 stars is because my husband's all you can eat cod was good although it took at least 20 minutes for him to get a second plate full.

Took quite a long time for our order to come out. If you ordered a dinner, it comes with a salad bar. The salad bar was a bit anemic. Lettuce, onion, olives, and mushrooms were the only veggies. Seemed like an odd mix. Once our order arrived, the food was really good. Shrimp 2 ways & walleye on my seafood platter for a reasonable $18. We'll definitely be back as we have family in the area, hopefully service picks up a bit, too.

I ordered ruff summer drink which I recommend. Very sweet and delicious. For the food I ordered mango habanero and the new blackened wings traditional style. I think there wasn't enough seasoning on the blackened wings which I was left disappointed. The seasoning itself was pretty good just not enough on the wings. The mango habanero was ok if you like sweet and tangy spice. I'd come back to try the burgers

All the food groups: dairy cheese, gravy, bacon, fat, vegetables, how could you go wrong? We happened to go here for a birthday drink shortly after it opened and found out it was bingo night. Then went weekly for a year! It was a lot more fun when Rick called bingo. There were people of all ages playing (18+) with one cash prize, and several certificates, T-shirts, etc.,back when it was free. We spent enough on food and drinks that it wasn't really "free" but cheap entertainment bringing friends together. Was a highlight destination while it lasted. Still go for the wings. Now it's pay bingo with cash prizes, but I find it less camaraderie anymore. I guess the person calling bingo made a huge difference.
