Seating is first come, first serve and often fills up fast. My husband is a big fan of the Dam Special, a classic breakfast combination, and I'm always alternating between the Eggs Benedict and Biscuits and Gravy. All very good and great comfort food!

Everything is made from scratch with flavorful sauces on every dish. Chef Swanson was there cooking with his wife which was so cool to be able to chat with him. Our favorite dish didn't have a photo because we ate it so quick. The fried green tomatoes were lightly breaded with a panko and pesto plus mozzarella. It was similar to a fried green tomato caprese salad. Yum! The rest of the dishes were amazing plus we tried the beet carrot cake for dessert and again perfect. There is outside seating with a view of the country. This place is very remote and you would never expect the quality of food for the price. This is an extension of the Milwaukee location where they hold special farm to table events plus bike rides etc. Please make sure you get here when it opens again because this place is a gem that we need to keep in business. There is nothing like this for miles around this area

Divine. We were…read moreenjoying a week in the north woods when I noticed Braise North and wondered if they were affiliated with Braise in Milwaukee--they are! They're only open Friday evenings and Sat-Sun. We stopped by on a Saturday morning and got the best meal of our trip. They're a cute spot with a lovely little indoor dining room as well as a patio. We opted to dine outdoors on the sunny Saturday morning we were there. I ordered the frittata and a caramel latte made with almond milk. The frittata came with a lightly dressed salad on the side. The salad was fine but the frittata was out of this world delicious. It was buttery with creamy goat cheese that was beautifully sharp and flavorful. My caramel latte was the best cup of coffee of my trip (so good with wonderfully rich espresso). My only hope is that they'll eventually expand their hours as I would have happily been in there every morning of my trip. They are a wine bar in the evenings as well (though we didn't stop by for that). The service was good if a bit disjointed (we received our meals and finished them before our coffee came out). But, aside from that small snag--exemplary all the way around. Get to it!

Let me clarify this is a 4.5 star rating. Our friends at Yelp still won't give us half stars…read more After visiting Northwoods Inn, I tell people, "I had a great meal at a gas station recently.". No kidding, don't let the gas station vibes throw you, this place has great eats. We walked in through the gas station part of the building and were surprised to see the rustic decor of a medium sized dining area and an adjacent bar. It was a pretty full dining room and we sat ourselves. It didn't look promising as we saw one waitress and one bartender. However, after a brief wait, the waitress came to our table and assured us she would return as quickly as possible to get our drink and food orders. She returned as promised. Our drinks arrived a short time later. They were well made and attention was paid to get us another round as we finished the first. Our table had ribs, prime rib and a French dip sandwich. The portion size was great and the food arrived hot. The ribs were fall-off-the-bone tender and the sauce was tasty. The prime rib had great flavor, was prepared as ordered and had very little fat. The French dip was also tasty. Truth be told, a salad bar would make this a true five star rating. The salads served with the meal were nice but very run-of-the-mill. Will we go back in the future? You betcha!

My Reuben had just the right mix of lean corned beef and sauerkraut. Real thousand island dressing came on the side, which is my preference. Portions are big here and the slices of rye were quite thick but surprisingly not overfilling. It was a very, very good sandwich and the homemade chips made it a great lunch entree. The cinnamon roll French toast also gets a good review for being tasty and the fruit bowl offered a good selection. The noise level was average and our dining experience memorable.

I'd like to give a small town diner a higher mark, I just can't. Nothing was terribly wrong, just…read morenothing great. The place needs a deep cleaning, servers could have been more attentive and the menu has room for expansion. A friend and I ate there on a day where other local establishments were closed. The full parking lot may have been because of those businesses not being open. My friend had a soda that was flat and tasted off. He was never offered a refill. He had a chicken breast sandwich which he described as average.i had the Cubano breakfast sandwich. It was underwhelming. Here are a couple of oddities; no fries or tots. Hash browns, American fries or red baked potatoes. No deep fryer? No air fryer? For as greasy as the place felt, bringing in a deep fryer would be a good investment. Also, buns on sandwiches not toasted. A small touch like that would have helped the taste quite a bit. Overall, knowing there are better options in the area (when they are open), I'd suggest looking for one.

The chicken was perfectly prepared and the sandwich so nicely grilled. It came with a side choice of fries, salad, or soup. I chose the brócoli cheddar soup - yum! For dessert had a piece of Oreo pie. Loved the touch of the dollops of different whipped creams on the plate with it. The menu here is HUGE, an entire full page of breakfast items on the front, and an entire page of lunch items on the back. Plus they have daily specials too. I'll definitely be back to try more items!

We'll…read moreknown and good burgers and fries...but my trusted dining companion, Yelp, told me about a little diner, open only until 2:00 p.m. called Misty's Menu, so we headed there for a burger, fries, and soup. My wife ordered homemade beef noodle soup (delicious). My 1/3 lb hand-pattied burger was served on a perfectly toasted potato bun which was bakery fresh! I'm very particular about fries. These were nearly perfect. Crinkle-cut, crispy, and thank heaven's not coated! Coated fries are the lazy diner's way of adding crispness to fries. Simply change your fryer oil frequently and you'll get crisp, delicious fries - like Misty's! My cup of chili contained elbow pasta but lacked salt in my opinion. My table shaker fixed that and I enjoyed the small sample of their homemade chili. Our server, Harmony, was prompt, well trained, friendly and attentive. She displayed a good sense of humor and connected with us. So, no offense to Culver's but our $17.97 meal was fast, fresh, and served with a smile! So its Culver's No, Misty's Yes in my opinion! Give this place a try for breakfast or lunch.

The place is usually very busy in the morning, we waited for about 10 minutes, maybe less for a table. Upon sitting, we were greeted promptly by a friendly waitress. I ordered the maple cinnamon iced latte, which was decent. The avocado toast plate was fantastic, but spicy. The smoked salmon tasted like it had been brought out of a cold package and warmed up in the microwave. If you bring the food down to what it actually is, it is impressive that they can make such bland food look beautiful. It seemed like they didn't care much about the presentation of the waffle.. almost as if people ordering waffles are inferior to people ordering avocado toast lol.. Overall, presentation was very inconsistent between the four plates at our table, but if you're not one who cares about that, then all you need to know was that the food was really good!
