I heard about this place and decided to give it a try. I was blown away by the excellent food and service. Also, very clean and great atmosphere. I had the fish tacos for lunch. Also tried the Philly cheesesteak and the turkey avocado sandwich. Was all very good. Also had the salad bar with the stuffed pepper soup and was amazed. The salad bar was very fresh and clean. It is hard to find salad dressing that is somewhat healthy in this area. Most restaurants have your typical heavy dressings, and I was happy to see that they had a balsamic vinaigrette. Well done to the new owners of this establishment.!!!!

I just discovered this gem of a place today. Absolutely top notch bar and grill in a rather unexpected location off of route 94. When you walk in and are greeted by the friendly staff you have the feeling that you've found something special. The place has a comfy rustic look and is immaculate. Seriously, The Pines is one of the cleanest bar and grills I've ever been in. No oily feeling tables and the bathrooms weren't just clean, they were mom's house at Christmas clean. My server, Holly, walked me through the menu and the tap list. Holly was exceptionally nice and we chatted for a bit. She told me a little of the place's history and all the work that the owners have put into it. I think a lot of love and attention has gone into The Pines and it shows. I ordered the prime rib sandwich and substituted the side of fries with a trip to the soup and salad bar. Everything was delicious. The owner smokes the prime rib and it tasted like the pork in the pork and veggie soup had also been smoked. The soup and salad bar was filled with the freshest veggies and fixings you could imagine. It was also perfectly clean, of course. I've added it to my favorites in my GPS so I will be reminded to stop when traveling through the area.

Great spot for food or a drink! You won't be dissatisfied. Even a soup and salad bar if you're so inclined!

We were staying at the lodge and decided to give the restaurant a try for Saturday night dinner…read more You can order off the menu or get the buffet. Adult buffet is $13.95 and had some good options. However most of our party ordered off the menu and the food was very disappointing. The medium steak was rare on the middle. The grilled Italian herb chicken breast was very small (under 4oz) and dry from being overcooked. Paying extra for a "loaded" potato was a joke. The potato was nowhere near loaded and was missing some of the ingredients listed in the menu description. All entrees were supposed to come with bread and butter. We had to ask for the bread, as it never came. Anything positive you ask? Yes, so giving 2 stars Kids under 2 get the buffet free. There was a free wine tasting for those over 21. Plus there was a nice selection of local beers and imports. I sincerely wish the local owners all the best with their new investment in 3 Bears Lodge. I think you should loose the white napkin fancy table settings and all dressed in black servers. Don't try to be something your not. This location would be perfect for a down-home, scratch-made, good comfort food in a casual attmosphere.

Years ago the restaurant in the Three Bears Lodge was a great place to go for a delicious fish fry…read moreon Friday nights. After being closed for awhile, we heard there were new owners and decided to try it again and support our local restaurants. We should have known that something was wrong when it's 5:30 and only one table is filled in the whole dining room. We ordered the fish and while we were waiting we were looking around to see if any changes had been made. We didn't see any noticeable improvements; but did notice that the dining room was not clean. Many of the table were even dusty on top! Our meal came and the minute we saw it we were not satisfied. There were 3 pieces of greasy fish and a half of a plate piled with greasy french fries for $12.99! No bread, no coleslaw, no options....only greasy food that we told the waitress we could not eat. She was kind and said we did not have to pay for it; so we still gave her a tip for her trouble. My tip to the owners of Three Bear is to eat their own Friday night fish fry and then they'll understand why no one is in there at 5:30 on a Friday night and their tables are covered with dust!

Excellent crab cakes, outstanding salad, had the duck. That was probably the best duck breast…read morewe've ever had. Not greasy, the potato puffs were outstanding, and the spicy thin cut Brussel sprouts were absolutely delicious. Our server was nice, kinda quirky, but nice, and the service was overall very good. We had two old fashioneds, (maple and blueberry) and I'd say they were sweeter than expected. I'd say if you don't want it as sweet, inform them to make it less sweet/simple sugar. You want to taste the liquor... and that I think was a slight shame. It was still good- but ask for less sweet.... Additionally, had the pumpkin cheesecake, and that was very good too. It was heavy, but still very good. Very clean, the bathrooms were clean, and the facility was very organized and this old building has been revamped and is now a nice shiny jewel of Baraboo. Highly recommend. Get the duck... absolutely one of the most underrated platter that goes highly unnoticed. Get it. Thank me later.

Overall a good experience. Waitress wasn't the overly friendly but she was efficient. The food took…read morea bit but tasted great. Shout out to the smoked salmon crostini and lobster Mac. There was a very loud and obnoxious group close by but thankfully they were gone about half way through our meal so we could enjoy our meal with our group. Prices are a tad high but it was worth it. Would definitely stop for another special occasion but not for a regular meal.
