I love the service and atmosphere, but the walleye wasn’t as good as people said it was, it didn’t feel fresh.

Great place to have brunch and meet friends and family from out of town. Amazing selection of foods. Omelettes cooked with all your choices, even goat cheese. Meats included chicken and barbecued ribs in chafing dishes. Fruits and desserts!

Their menu has multiple dishes with sea food, so if you are a fan then definitely this is the place. We tried multiple dishes and it was definitely good BUT their bread ... OMG .. it is fresh and AMAZING... Yum.
Service was a bit slow, for the place that was packed. I probably noticed only 3 servers so probably overwhelmed.
But all in all good experience.

Cheers

Service was really slow. Our server appeared to be working alone.
We started off with the bison meatball appetizer. I have never been served a rare meatball before. It was less than appealing for that reason. Otherwise the flavor was good. I ordered the fish sandwich and the wife had the 1/2 club and soup. Both sandwiches were pretty average but her potato soup was really good.

I don't know if I have ever received such professional service as I did from Senen. It's so rare to be served by someone who takes such obvious pride in his work. The walleye was delicious as well.

Actually really good! Definite northwoods vibes, but classy and upscale while being comfortable and not stuffy. The food was really good - my table got shrimp scampi, meatloaf, and steak, as well as two desserts all of which was excellent. I'll definitely be back.

I wish I live closer to this hidden gem of a restaurant. Or maybe if you're local in Rockford, you realize it's fantastic. The food offerings were unique and did not disappoint. The wait staff was very friendly and helpful. The ambiance is reminiscent of an old supper club with a huge fireplace in the room. We dined in and lots of dark wood and it brought me back to childhood memories of family vacations in Wisconsin. Seriously. I told my husband about it and we're probably making a road trip just to go to this restaurant. It was that good.

We went on a Sunday for their Sunday Brunch with a group of 10 people. I would suggest if you have a large group, make a reservation to be on the safe side. I Love this brunch! Been here several times for it Our waitress, Song, was excellent! Very friendly, engaging in conversation and catered to our every need. The food is excellent from the prime rib to the made to order omelettes. The waffles, eggs benedict, cheesy hash browns, ribs, fried chicken, fruit and desserts and more. I highly recommend this brunch and the price is just right for all this food. Try the Mimosa Flight, also priced right. My go to place for a great meal with family or friends!

Great restaurant. The employees were very personable and attentive. The food was wonderful, good value for the money. The breads were delicious and you must try their balsamic vinaigrette. It is house made and the very best I've ever tasted! Great place to take your special someone.
