TJ's Harbor Restaurant - View from patio dining of outside bar and upstairs seating. - New American Near Me - Oshkosh, Wisconsin

Just ate there and I have to say it was some of the best food I ever ate. My wife had the bbq pork with I believe were homemade chips, in which she said were very good, I had the gumbo which was very good and the Gorgonzola burger, this had to be one of the best burger I have ever eaten. For dessert we shared a pumpkin mousse with almond cake, here again fantastic!! This will be one of my favorite places to go in the future read more

Gotta give them 5 stars. Awesome burger, cooked. perfectly, everyone else also very pleased with meals. My We be were in a boat it was very crowded but we were seated within 20 min. read more

Nice restaurant with a great view. Ribeye steak was very disappointing. Italian dishes served with no bread.

Sitting here at seat yourself for15 minutes now! No menus! No drinks! Not even a clean table! Don't know if I can stay if it's gonna take 3 hours to get my food! Turned into 45 minutes was able to get a coffee and a water but sat over 15 minutes waiting for waitress to take order. Left disgusted. Won't be back. read more

I've been here multiple times since its convenient, originally it was "ok" but it seems there's no flavor anymore everything I've tried lately has been disappointing to say the least. I've had anything from the crab cakes to the rotisserie chicken, NOT worth the price at all. read more

Entrance not easy for person with cane ....Steps! Seat yourself involves a wait for server. Good menu selection pricey for OShkosh but this is small town frugal! Had Cob Salad generous amount and dressing on side. Requested additional dressing because serving size of a shot glass , not enough for huge salad. Food was good service was fine. The bill for appetizer, sandwich, salad and soda was 35.00 plus for 2. Noted on check .50 CHG for extra salad dressing. Seriously? Paid and left. When I got home called restaurant asked for Mgr. Got a somewhat rude young lady. I asked about the CHG for dressing and was informed it was the policy like all places do! Told her not where I eat. She informed me even McDonalds charges extra!!! Bet the owner would love to know his mgt compared his place to the golden arches!!! Will not recommend. read more

Waited for 20 minutes before anyone acknowledged my presence and then was seated only to be rudely waited on. Wanted to order food and drinks right away but only took drink order. Didnt come back for 10 minutes to take food order so we left before eating. Won't be going back. Clearly understaffed. If one waitress is going go the bar, upstairs and main floor, the service is going to be terrible. read more

Came in town for a Friday afternoon reunion lunch with my college friends. The decor is modern rustic and the outdoor area was perfect right on the lake. I just don't understand how a place that advertises a Friday night fish fry cannot locate their walleye. The waitress seriously said that. So I ordered what I thought was grilled perch and was served a huge plate of waffle fries with breaded fish stacked on top. Thankfully the waitress was patient and understood my surprise. She suggested another plate with a true grilled fish, broccoli and rice. The fish was great but the greens limp with oil. I think the Moscow mule with Tito's saved the day along with the company of my friends. read more

I can't say enough good things about TJ's Harbor Restaurant. It's such a nice place with the best food, yet it feels so relaxed and is VERY reasonably priced. The atmosphere is amazing! Located on the water it was a gorgeous view from our table on the patio. Our waitress was so great too. Then there was the food. The cheese curds, the clam chowder, the beer and wine selection, the salmon (the best ever), the burgers, the desserts, EVERYTHING we tried was delicious!!! I was beyond impressed and if we lived closer we would be here all the time. Great experience at an awesome place. Give it a try, it will not disappoint. read more

We arrived at 6:30pm and were seated quickly by the hostess. Our server, Drew, got us drinks and then a few minutes later asked if we would like to order an appetizer. We ordered the spinach artichoke dip. It came up about 10 minutes later and it was okay, definitely the best food item we got. We waited another 20 minutes after our appetizer was served and Drew asked us if we "want to order entrees" and when we said yes, asked if we were ready to? It felt a bit dismissive. Well, we just waited a half hour to order our meals, so we ordered the poké bowl and the blackened mahi tacos with a cup of gumbo. The rice in the bowl and gumbo was undercooked and the gumbo was more like a broth soup. The tortillas for the tacos hadn't been warmed in any way and were cold, like they'd just been pulled from the bag and it kind of ruined the tacos.. had the tortillas been grilled, it really would have really set the tacos off in my opinion. The Chipotle Pineapple Marg was the highlight of our visit. We most likely will not go out of our way to return here which is a bummer because I'd been dying to try this place but the overall experience was lackluster. read more

Enjoyed the food and view we came back again tonight with a new group of friends. Wine pour is skimpy tonight, but 4oz. Food better yesterday, seating better today! What's a girl supposed to say! read more

We're locals & we absolutely love TJ's! The old fashioneds are some of our absolute favorites. I like trying the chef's daily special because of the variety. There are very few things we haven't loved. They have a great weekend brunch too. I love the fresh ingredients, non-standard supper club food! The people there are wonderful too! If you're thinking about going, don't hesitate! read more

TJ's Harbor Restaurant - New American Near Me - Oshkosh, Wisconsin

Highly recommend. Beautiful view and delicious food. Lots of gluten free options too.

This place is a staple for us. First off, the atmosphere of this restaurant is nothing that any other restaurant in the area has. Their industrial, modern and beachy vibe make it worth going to alone. Their large concrete bar is beautiful! My husband and I are amazed every time we go. Secondly, their food is very good. I've never had a disappointing meal at TJ's. Whether it be chicken tacos, a shrimp po boy, simple hamburgers, or an ahi tuna wrap, it's all delicious. The summer is one of the best times to go. They have a large outdoor eating and bar area that's accessible to lake winnebago. We've brought the boat over a time or two to stop and have margaritas! They also offer many options for gluten free that taste just as good as the real deal! read more

No waitresses or waiters wearing masks during a pandemic! Beware. Don't know how this place hasn't been shut down yet. We were charged extra for all the ranch each person got with their meal, the waitress did not let us know it was an up charge for ranch and several other things. Yes, it's only 50 cents for ranch, but it's the principle on letting us know that it costs extra rather than just bringing us 5 of them! Food and drinks were good, view was great, but overall place was unorganized, dirty, and concerning that no one was wearing a mask. read more

Stumbled on this on the way to EAA Seabase! Great find. Crab cakes, blackened snapper, and the side Caesar is a meal on its own. And right on the water. I'll be back. read more

What a beautiful location! Unfortunately, the service was so slow I was unable to receive my food before I left. We ordered our food at 12:05 - there was one other table and had to leave at 12:45. It's about the service! read more

TJ's Harbor Restaurant - Nice view! - New American Near Me - Oshkosh, Wisconsin

Come by boat, car, ATV, snowmobile, helicopter, whatever ... Atmosphere (outdoors and inside), food/drinks , lake views, combined with friends equals a win win, you won't be disappointed. Craft beer flavors are regularly rotated (my fave) . Bloody Mary Sunday Specials a plus ! getting hungry and thirsty again...heading there soon. read more

It's a bit of a drive but it's worth it. This restaurant has a nice ambiance with great views of the lake. They have a varied menu that should serve all appetites. I went with the pork belly and I'll definately do it again. read more

This is a quaint spot for Sunday brunch. We started with the homemade donuts that were amazing. The traditional eggs Benedict was a favorite with the group. The seasoning was unique with a nice zesty taste. The view was amazing overlooking the water even in the winter. The staff was friendly and attentive. This is a must stop when you are in the area. read more

The food was ok but we just expected a bit more. For the price we paid we could've gone elsewhere and gotten better food and better price.

We are foodies and eat everywhere. This was some of the most average food I have ever had (we were dying laughing at how the nachos are served in a rusty, yes rusty, tin pan). The drinks were horrible (simple syrup. No craft cocktails here). Not worth the money. It's the worst feeling ever when you leave after spending $60 and find yourselves saying how bad the food and drinks were. However, this place can get away with having sub-par food and drinks because of the view and deck/patio! Its what people crave nowadays. I recommend going elsewhere for good food and drinks. If you want to enjoy the weather and watch a game, TJs is the place. Stick with a Tito's soda or a beer. PS: my 8 year old sister could make a better burger. The best chefs in the world say you can judge a restaurant solely based on 2 things: their burger and their wings... read more

Good food and service, friendly place, great view of the lake. They good selection of beers, just lacked porters and stouts.

I was not aware of this amazing restaurant between Oshkosh and Fond Du Lac. I checked Yelp for Friday Fish Fry (it was a Friday) and it came up. I was so impressed!! Super cold winter night, fireplace was stocked with burning wood, amazing atmosphere! Beautiful newer building. Amazing service and the food was excellent. We sat on the upper level. Looked like a great view of the lake, but it was nighttime for us. I had the baked Haddock and my friend had beer battered. Also had the crab cakes, excellent!!! Even the presentation of the food was super nice! This is not just a bar and grill by no means! Keep up the great work, we will be back soon! read more

I came for dinner with my dad and brother during a visit to Oshkosh about a week ago. We arrived at around 8:20 pm, and the restaurant was not crowded. There are two floors. The bar and patio are on the lower level, and there is additional seating upstairs with a beautiful view of Lake Winnebago. The menu has a good selection of seafood dishes, along with other options. I ordered linguine with chicken in a fiery tequila lime sauce. The sauce was tasty, but it was spicy enough to slow down my eating pace slightly. I enjoyed it, but If you're sensitive to spicy food, I would recommend choosing a different dish. My brother ordered salmon with linguine in a white truffle sauce, and my dad tried the arctic char special, which was served with gnocchi and vegetables. Both of them thoroughly enjoyed the food. Our server was efficient and kept our water glasses filled. I have no complaints. For anyone requiring handicap access: the main entrance is situated on a landing between the two dining levels, and you must walk up or down stairs to sit at a table. I didn't see a ramp, but I may have missed it. If you are determined enough, I believe you could go through the grass to the back of the restaurant and enter through the patio on the lower level. Overall, this was a fabulous place to eat. I highly recommend it. read more

Nice atmosphere, good food, but are waitresses was horrible! Forgot our appetizer, made my drink wrong, gave me a cardboard box, for my leftovers! I could go on and on but I would be writing all day! read more

Looking for good food and fun summer atmosphere? Look no more, TJ's Harbor is your place! My husband and I stopped here on our way home from a Cape Cod vacation and it felt like we were still in vacay mode. Sandwiches were excellent and drinks good too! read more

TJ's Harbor is an absolutely awesome place to get drinks and appetizers on Lake Winnebago in Oshkosh! I recommend their cheese curds; they're long and irresistible. Also, share a bowl of loaded tortilla chips while you're at it! I have never had an entree here, but how delicious and fulfilling the appetizers were made the review worth writing. Might I add, the view of the lake is just gorgeous when sitting at the bar. Service was fantastic! I can't remember names of servers outside my state, but it was very laid back. I'm shooting for another visit when I come back to WI next year for sure. read more

Very nice place in the lake. Going today! Check out the speciald.........^............ ....................... read more

Food was good, atmosphere was great. Service was a bit slow but waitress was very apologetic.

Can't believe I hadn't reviewed this place. New favorite for when I visit my mom. Amazing appetizers. Best view. Fun patio. I can't say enough good things. Tacos were fresh and amazing. Cheesecake was great-- and i don't typically like cheesecake! Fun summer cocktails and I wish I could go here more often! Can't wait to visit again at Christmastime. 5 stars! read more

This place has beautiful decor. It has a beautiful view. On a gorgeous day like today in August 85 degrees outside it was great to have an option to sit outside on the patio with an umbrella for shade and eat. You could see it was a popular place and especially for people who were on a boat who could dock their boats and get some food. There was even a few dogs outside on the patio which makes me want to go back and take my puppy! I got a blackberry, apple, spinach and blue cheese wrap with fries which you can make that option wrap, a salad, or a salad with soup. It was very good! They don't have many vegetarian options, but what I had was good. Would definitely recommend. It's a little in the middle of nowhere but worth the drive. read more

Second year we have eaten here for airventure. Staff is nice interior is wonderful huge bar, back and deck patio right on the water with seaplane and boat pull up area. Wonderful fresh menu lots of salad options. Great bar drinks and beers. New interior. A++ read more

TJ's Harbor Restaurant - View from inside second story - New American Near Me - Oshkosh, Wisconsin

Nice restaurant but the cheese to curd ratio was not great. Not nearly enough cheese for the curd. I definitely see the potential for these curds but there needs to be more cheese, we are in wisconsin you know lol. But harbor nachos are greatthe ranch is also to die for, I wish I had actual cheese curds to dip in it. read more

The view is alright and there's not much else along this side of the lake in terms of lakeside dining. But the food is way overpriced and only tastes ok. Don't get the truffle pasta app, it's basically spaghetti soaked in butter with a dash of truffle oil. Cajun po boy was pretty good, gnocchi was soggy and overcooked. read more

Fabulous restaurant and atmosphere- fabulous food too. Rotisserie Chicken is great- I could eat it all day long!! Their yummy house margaritas are tough to beat. Best thing though- dining with your doggies! Yep our furry friends are welcome outside at the beautiful lakefront tables. We love bringing Mr Miles and docking the boat for some food and fun here. Thanks TJ's for being pet-friendly!! read more

We have been there several times. It's close and the atmosphere is nice. But the food is terrible. The only thing we have found we like are the cheese curds. Drinks are good, most of the time. Really need a better chef. Get a better chef and we will come back. read more

Nice atmosphere, good eats and bevies. Patio rocks in summer, but be ready to elbow your way in, as it's first there, first there
