While visiting town for a family funeral, we stopped in for a late lunch and were pleasantly…read moresurprised by our experience. The deep-fried queso cheese curds were fresh, hot, and absolutely delicious. We also enjoyed the deep-fried pickle chips, which were crispy and full of flavor. The Bang Bang Shrimp Salad was excellent, with fresh snow peas and cucumbers, and the Thai dressing added just the right amount of flavor and zest. We also ordered the perch dinner with sweet potato fries, and both were very good. The only item we would not recommend was the lobster bisque. It came out warm not hot and It lacked flavor. It seemed to be missing something that would have made it more enjoyable. All of the portions were generous, and we definitely felt we received good value for our meal. The servers and restaurant staff were friendly, attentive, and provided excellent service throughout our visit. We would recommend this restaurant to others. Plenty of TVs throughout your watch your favorite sporting event. Being on the water on a beautiful summer day made for a peaceful setting. There is tons of seating available, including tables, booths, and seating at one of their two large bars, making it a comfortable choice for a variety of dining preferences.

On my last visit, she mentioned that her attached Blue Line Tavern serves a fish fry every Friday AND Saturday. That was all the encouragement I needed! On Saturday, October 24th, Ann and I went for a Saturday fish fry. Growing up in Wisconsin--especially Milwaukee--I've enjoyed fish dinners all over the state. I figured we were heading out for another tavern fish fry. What we got was a meal worth telling people about! Upon arrival, I found the tavern roomy and very wheelchair accessible. As someone with a disability who uses a wheelchair, I appreciate being able to enter a restaurant and feel comfortable in the space. Their menu offered a wide variety of delicious dishes to choose from, but I went with the baked cod, served with lemon caper sauce, garlic mashed potatoes, steamed vegetables, and a dinner roll. The dinner included a choice of soup or salad, and I chose the mac and cheese as my soup. The baked cod was absolutely AWESOME! The lemon caper sauce complemented it beautifully, and the plate was presented with care. This was fine dining quality food in a comfortable, relaxed tavern. The food quality is top notch, the portions are large, and the prices are very affordable--well worth it for the meal you get! A big compliment to the kitchen for giving this longtime Wisconsin fish fry customer something to rave about! The staff were super friendly and welcoming, and the restaurant was very clean, including the bathrooms. Multiple TVs had live sports playing, with the volume at a comfortable level that allowed Ann and me to enjoy an easy conversation without raising our voices. Between the food, the friendly people, the accessibility, and the relaxed atmosphere, we will definitely be making Blue Line Tavern one of our new dinner destinations! If you're looking for a Friday OR Saturday fish fry--or another dinner from their varied menu--I highly recommend giving them a try. Kari, I'm glad you told me about it! Blue Line Tavern 90 S.

As soon as you walk in, the bar and restaurant is lively with a good vibe, so I had high hopes. Our server was great, very personable. But the food was subpar at best. We started with the Fire Cracker Shrimp appetizer. The shrimp were frozen cheap shrimp tossed in a little sauce with soggy coleslaw on the bottom. I would be embarrassed to serve that appetizer. The Spotted Cow burger sounded amazing but the burger is a frozen burger with no seasoning and it was not juicy at all. The homemade potato chips were greasy and soggy. I have never had chips like that, ick. The green pepper soup was ok. It may have been homemade, I am not sure but I was so turned off by the other food I could not eat it. Such a waste of money. There are food & drink specials posted all over. My guess is that they are hurting. Plus parking is terrible.

Also, you had the option of super salad. I got the creamy potato soup. Excellent! For the side, I thought I would try the deli salad. I was told it was like a macaroni salad. It was a decent scoop of macaroni salad with peas 1 inch pieces of cheese and also pieces of ham. Very good my waitress was friendly and on the ball. Some of the booths seem kind of dark to me. I requested a table by the window and it was perfect. I definitely would come back here again and try something else.

I'm a lover of goat cheese, but it was way too overpowering. I wasn't able to finish! Overall, we had a good experience and I would just select another entree next time!

To Em G. - your ignorance on religious history is very telling, if not appalling. The building used to be a bank (or so we were told). The "swastika" design on the floor dates back more than 11,000 years... literally. It is an auspicious symbol in Hinduism as well as several other religions. It was installed in that building before WWII (also, so we were told). In case you haven't priced flooring lately, best to leave original craftsmanship and educate yourself than replace an entire bar floor because some ignorant folks are "offended". Keep up the great work folks! We will be back every time we visit Fondy!

My 6 buddies and I flew in from all over the country for a reunion and got an Airbnb on lake Winnebago. After having a great time at nearby bars (The Coliseum and Fat Joes) we stopped here for another drink. After giving the bartender Taylor our IDs, which were from different states, she immediately said they were fake and she couldn't serve us. We are all 25 years old. When we insisted we were all of age she said she would have to call the police. She refused to return our IDs until the cops came, she also refused to give me water until the police came because she "couldn't serve us at all" Refusing a drunk guy water, what a great way to run a bar! The worst part of it all was after 45 minutes of waiting for the police, we decided to call them ourselves. She never even called them! This establishment decided to ruin our night out of malice and spite. The police apologized for her ineptitude and told us not to let it ruin our view of the town. Taylor made that quite difficult.
