My partner had the garlic burger which had the perfect amount of garlic. One thing to note is fries or chips do not come with the burger. I chose the parmesan fries not great. My partner got the onion rings and they were very good and extremely hot which means fresh. I also splurged on the chocolate chip cookie. It was good but not amazing. This place is right on the corner so parking can be tricky. You need to order at the bar and then go back to the bar to pay your tab. Family atmosphere with corner bar feel. It wasn't super busy on a Sunday afternoon but I imagine when it is ordering and paying at the bar can be frustrating. Overall this is a nice place with great burgers. If I go again will for sure try the chips, which could lead to a 4 star review.

How cool is this spot?! Fortunately, we were able to reserve a table at the last minute. First,…read moreambience. Real candles, classic blues and jazz music, plus lots of antique flair oozing historic vibes. A retro phone booth for the server station: nice! Next, service: Brooke is the server who now sets the standard in my mind for her excellent tableside manner! She was on the ball and then some, with a fun personality and friendly demeanor, making sure we enjoyed our night out. I loved the menus, both food and drinks. I tried a Citrine martini and it was ice cold with fresh lemon -- yum. My dining companion had a seasonal tap brew and the perch fish fry; he ate every bite! I had to try the shrimp and grits. It's not something you see on the menu every day in Wisconsin, but I have a love for it from trips down South... And they nailed it. Fragrant with garlic and generously portioned, it had a brothy, exquisite base. It makes my mouth water to recall! We will return for some of the other delicious items on the menu. Thanks for a great evening!

Stopped here for Easter brunch. Saw the menu advertised in the local paper, and that was enough to…read moredraw me in. $47 per person is a little bit steep, but the economy the way it is, it's understandable. Started out with the jumbo shrimp cocktail. Very fresh, and the cocktail sauce was tangy with a citrus undertone. The lamb chops were cooked to perfection, and the glaze only added to them. Plenty of beautiful side dishes, omelet station, and other tasty dishes, complimented them! Bottomless mimosas on the house! If you had room, which I didn't, the pastry assortment was outstanding. The staff were very cordial and accommodating.

IF you Have nothing better to do than wait, then by all means check out this restaurant. Upon…read morearrival you will wait to check in, be told there's a wait for a table, wait while parties of four or more get seated immediately, wait for a table once all the bigger parties are seated, wait for a server to even greet you, wait some more until she actually comes to take your order, wait while watching the tables next to you ( who were seated after you) get served and eat their food before you get your orders. Wait some more for the server to even be in the area so you can ask about your order and then she doesn't even come back to say why/what's taking so long. Manager says the kitchen was busy... Food & especially Service are Absolutely NOT Worth the Wait!

I've eaten here a couple of times, usually late in the evening for a snack. The service is fast and…read morefriendly, and there's plenty of seating. Use caution approaching the place as the entrance by the railroad tracks is tricky. I have yet to have a main course, because I get sidetracked by the appetizers and usually end up sharing a few small plates. I'm a sucker for bacon-wrapped water chestnuts, and I rarely find them. The oriental glaze is potent and tasty (and you can't go wrong with bacon and the crunch of the water chestnut). The walleye fingers and tartar sauce are quite good, but sometimes a little fishy - if that's a concern for you, go with the cod. Cheese bites are fantastic. I'll have to return sometime to check out more of the menu, but I'm looking forward to it.

Now that's saying something since I live a good hour away from this place so it's a hike....but man, WORTH IT! Sounds like it gets pack on Friday evenings for the fry, and the wait staff mentioned they were going to start frying at 4:00 P.M. instead of all day....so get in there early if you wanna miss the crowds who know how awesome the fish is here!
