We had a carry out order for perch. We were extremely happy with the food.

Toonies near Torch Lake gave us the kind of service you’d expect if you accidentally wandered into your ex’s family reunion uninvited. We showed up around 6:30, stood there like awkward middle-schoolers waiting to be picked for dodgeball, and finally someone emerged from the back to seat us. From there, it only went downhill.

Every table around us was treated like royalty—bread baskets flying left and right—while we sat bone-dry, watching our server (an older lady who looked like she’d rather be anywhere else) sprint past our empty glasses like we were invisible. At one point, she literally gave our bread to another table, then came back and took it off their table to hand to us. Nothing says “five-star dining” like secondhand carbs.

I ordered the 8oz sizzler. What I got looked like a breakfast steak on a diet—quarter-inch thin, drowning in a salt lick of seasoning. Medium rare, sure, but only because it was impossible to cook something that thin wrong. My wife’s perch dinner arrived lukewarm, with breading so soft it felt like chewing a damp oven mitt. Throughout it all, our drinks never once got refilled, and our server never asked how we were doing—not even a fake “everything okay here?” drive-by.

Food: meh. Service: aggressively bad. I left zero tip and wrote “HORRIBLE SERVICE” on the receipt so there’s no confusion. If you’re into salty disappointment, warm fish, and the thrill of being ghosted by your server while sitting three feet away from her, Toonies is your spot.

Food and server was good. Place is crowded with tables and can get very loud when everyone is talking. My complaint is one waitress was very distracting, she was wearing a white feather bath robe and underneath had extremely short shorts, to the point where her cooter and butt was almost out. Definitely not appropriate for a family diner.
