It was large and stuffed with sauted bits of ham, onions, and red peppers. It was covered with a nice melted shredded cheddar cheese. So good. It came with hash browns and toast. Hash browns could have been a bit crispier but overall, a delicious breakfast. Lots of fun things to look at in the bar. Glowing fish, Elvis, Jeeves.... Fun to walk around and take it all in. Service was excellent. Great stop.

I had 5 with bbq and 5 with bourbon. I actually asked for Korean bbq but that's not what I got. I think the server either didn't hear me (it was loud) or the kitchen messed up. But it's fine. Wings are wings. The rest of the gang had the chicken Philly, the shrimp tacos, and more wings. Everything came out hot and good. For drinks, we had a couple bulldogs, a pina colada, some old fashioneds and a Bloody Mary. Everything was great. Their bloody was seasoned! Music was fun. They take requests. I couldn't see them because the high tops and people standing and dancing were blocking my view but we could hear fine. We were sitting by the patio at the end of the bar at a table so the servers were in and out the whole time. Unfortunately there are a ton of flies and many were bothering us. It's a dive bar, so I couldn't be too upset. Parking was plentiful. It's a dirt lot so wear appropriate shoes. They have indoor and outdoor seating. I've heard the drinks at the outside bar are terrible! So I'm not sure what happened out there. They have gas for sale. There is a dock where you can park your boat. Bathrooms are clean. They have some games like crane game and pull tabs. This is a fun, low key, casual, place with good food and it's very popular.

The food and drinks were amazing, we ordered Tavern chips with Brisket and wings. The waiter was…read moresuper friendly. You could tell it's a popular place for locals, boaters and SxS riders, it was very busy in there the whole time we were there. I liked how it was very wide open, kind of gave an out door feeling while being inside.

Vi's ended up being our favorite stop. We ordered a Sauerkraut Pizza for the first time, and it blew us away! The tangy Kraut with the rich cheese and perfectly greasy, flavorful crust was everything you want in a classic dive-style pizza. The cheese was great quality, the crust had just the right consistency, and the whole thing hit the spot after a long day outdoors. We also grabbed an order of onion rings, it was a massive portion, perfectly crispy! It was honestly shocking to find this level of quality so far away from the city. We sat at the bar with a friendly bartender and chatted with some locals playing pull tabs, which just added to the charm. Great food, great people, and exactly the kind of small-town gem you hope to stumble into while exploring.

I tried the cheeseburger, fries, walleye fish fry, pizza and wings (both boneless and bone in). Everything was great other than the tartar sauce which tasted like pure mayonnaise. Our waitress was great the first night we came (on a Friday) but on Sunday there was one waitress also working the bar so she was not able to get to us in a timely manner for the entire night. Definitely a staple spot when we come throughout the year!

Sometimes, you just have to cut your losses. I started working in restaurants in 1978, and have…read moredone everything from bussing tables and washing dishes to owning. Believe me, I get it; I really do. However, when I go out, I always give a place at least 3 strikes until I stop going. Today was strike 3. The last 2 strikes happened within the last 12 months - all related to service/attentiveness of the staff. Strike 1 was when we were one of two tables in the place, and it took nearly 30 minutes to get food. Also had to go to the bar to get refills. Strike 2 was a couple months later - it was a bit busier (as there was a band) but it took waiting at a table for 15 minutes before going up to the bar to get our drinks. Owner was there but just "hangin' out". ABSOLUTELY unacceptable for the owner of a business. Food took nearly 40 minutes AFTER we ordered, and we had been there over 30 minutes before staff actually came to the table. Today, there was a good band that we came to see. Place was busy, so we were patient. Got our first round about 10 minutes after we came in, but next time staff showed up to our table was 20 minutes later. Took care of all the tables around us, but skipped over us (and one other table near us) several times. Had to make a couple of trips to the bar for refills during the show. Ordered deep fried appetizers at 20 minutes to 7. At 7:30 (50 minutes later), after seeing ALL THE OTHER TABLES THAT ORDERED FOOD GET SERVED (including 2 that were OUTDOORS) I called of the waitstaff over and asked for our bill. Staff asked if we had gotten our food and I said no. Disappeared for a couple minutes and came back and said "I can have them drop the order now and you'll have it soon..." I said no. They served sandwiches, pizzas, burgers and other fried stuff to at least 7 other tables that ordered after us. Oh, and the owner was there not doing much of anything that we could tell. Strike 3. Not spending money there anymore for any reason. The kicker? We know the owner and staff. Didn't even get a drink chip out of the deal (not that it would matter.) If it had been me, I'd have had the food made and packaged up to go, on the house. [In fact, I would have picked up the entire tab, but that's me. I've done it.] Certainly not worth a trip 30 minutes out to the middle of the woods. KS
