Manawa, Wi. I really wasn't expecting the food here to…read moretaste so good, but it was excellent. Service by an amazingly pleasant woman that was quick and efficient. Definitely an old local cafe kind of place that has the original wood floor. It's not decorated to look vintage, it just is. We sampled three dishes today: Pulled pork "Pizza" on naan, BBQ sauce was on it and it was neither sweet nor vinegary. Quite nice and a lot to eat. Chicken breast sandwich with bacon, Swiss cheese, thousand island on fluffy (My Word) rye. It's called Grandma Sue. I usually hate these so called "Rye" breads, but in this case the combination of all the ingredients actually work. A large sandwich, will fill you up. Pulled pork BBQ sandwich plate with baked beans on the side with even more pork. Some potato chips included. Delicious, and the sandwich is on a brioche bun that does not drip or fall apart. I also had a watermelon lemonade slushi that was delicious. It is good to have a nice place to have lunch in Manawa again. I'm going to try the Friday night fish fry next

Running orders, waitressing, bussing tables, doing checks and answering the phones for pick up orders. That is a lot for one person and does not leave room for good service to customers. We waited 15 minutes for our order to be taken. The corn nuggets were yummy, but the chicken tenders were definitely not what I was expecting. They looked straight out of the freezer section at Walmart. Their soda is cans with ice in a cup, in case that matters to you. Everyone else said their food was good, so it is definitely an improvement from no breakfast or lunch options at all.

My wife loved their shrimp so much sh had it both times and was not disappointed. They make a really good old fashion and are very friendly. We ate at tables in the bar area as we could keep an eye on the Brewers game, but they do have a small dining room also. We will return and if it's a Friday my next try will be the pollack.

Soup was Chicken Dumpling. Good flavor but thinner than expected and very little chicken chunks. Bread on the table was warm and soft. Prime rib with baked potato came. Potato was of mid-size but acceptable. Now the prime rib was an issue. Taste was excellent but portion was lacking. the cut was at an angle with the fatty part being about 2" thick as expected. But the thickness tapered down to 1/4" on the meaty end. I was not going to complain there because of the company I was with. Was definitely not worth the $36 price.

I went to the Big Texan in Amarillo to try their 72 oz steak challange and I failed on a…read moretechnicality. I realized I broke the rules, but a fellow challenger told me about the most extreme steaks even the internet couldn't come up with that goes by the bone as weights are approximate. A few years later I just happen to be in the area and thought I'd redeem myself by eating what I find to be a superior cut (Prime Rib). I was surprised at the lack of prize as it's a t shirt for 116 oz or 3 bones which is what feeds a family of 4 easily. No way i'm trying the 4 bone 10lb monster. Again I failed, but not because I tried, but because I wanted to enjoy my aged 72 oz. Huge menu for a restaurant, great options and fantastic sides. Best prime rib like 10+ years running. A long forgetten salad bar reminds me of Souplantation, but better (think Japanese Sizzler and if you didn't know it's way more elevated in Japan, so a huge compliment). Perfectly breaded appetizers. The mixed basket for the table is great, but the tavern mix is a perfect meal in an of itself. They have 9 different potato options, you'd think this was Idaho. The parm wedges remidned me of the OG Oscars in Socal, only missing hashbrowns. An extensive seafood selection that is fresh, despite being so far from water. They have half orders, kids menu that are pretty elevated. Lobster and scallops, 6 different shrimp offerings. They even offer a pate dish. Service is great, very friendly, family friendly, but not over run with kids. Decor is cool, not trendy or classic. It's inviting, but luxurious. Modern, owner designed and not by some firm. I'm guessing they were 1st time restauranteurs that actually made it. Everything comes out pretty quick which is a testament to their systems. Drinks are midwest fancy, dessert ish, but fun. Drafts are flowing. Lots of wood and comfortable but dark decor. Prices are affordable and their menu is vast. The prime rib has a nice crust, the meat is tender, but not aged. Beefy and well rendered. The jus is warm and deep, really warms up the latter stages of your 3 bone meal if you dare, ask for more half way thru. The 1st bone was easy peasy, very little chewing. the 2nd was still tasty, the 3rd things were cooling and I needed the jus. I finished it, cleaned the bones and took my shirt as I rode off into the sunset to take a 3 hour nap. I literally ubered back to the hotel as I couldn't drive comfortably. I paid cash to get the discount eventhough the prices are reasonable. No reservations, but they do accept larer parties, just call ahead and if your doing the 72 or 160 oz ribs you should call ahead. I was warned about this. I have no idea what the name Black Otter means, but Wisconsin is doing somethings right that Texas never could with these offerings. it's not just like eating/ordering a whole rib roast, people around here seem to eat 2 bones no problem.

There was space at the bar where the six of us could easily get a drink and begin our evening. The server found us quickly and took our order. Once seated, everyone headed to the well stocked salad bar. The out of towners in our group were impressed by the selections. I ordered the ribeye and requested blue cheese topping, others had steaks, and the ribs. It wasn't until my Daughter in Law commented that the steak tasted fishy, that I identified what was making my ribeye seasoning also taste odd. This suspicion was confirmed when we arrived back at home. My son, who is allergic to shellfish, started breaking out in hives. I can only assume that steaks were brushed with butter that was contaminated by the lobster tails. I plan to follow up with a phone call as this could have ended up with an ambulance ride or worse.

Bear Paw has a lot to offer, including: kayaking, lodging, gear and incredible food. It's in a stunning location, very near the Wolf River. We had a " pub style, plank pizza". It was loaded with fresh vegetables and meat with a medium thickness crust. A crunchy, yet tender crust, at that. I can't wait to go back. Eric, one of the owners and operations manager, was cook, bartender, server and entertainer. He does it all with a smile and makes you feel right at home. I highly recommend you try this place. It's on a stretch of Hwy 55 that winds and dips and while it is fun to drive, is a puke factor "8" out of 10 when I'm driving with my cat. Yeah, I drive with my cat.

We went here because it was touted and described as a "supper club"…read more This is not a supper club. It is a restaurant attached to a hotel. There is as a large sports bar with games playing but, that is not why we came here. We made reservations and still had to wait. When we were seated, it was at a high-top in the bar area with a very wobbly table. We asked to move to a regular table which was done "after they cleaned one off. So..... I would expect some bread and butter at the table. When we asked they said they didn't "do that" they did make us some burnt pieces of toast with olive oil. It was gross. What I will say, and what saves this review at 4 stars are the chefs working on an old school wood burning adjustable rack system with an open to see galley and cooking the steaks to absolute perfection.
