The Otter Burger is the BEST and so is their Bloody Mary. They never disappoint. I'd go every week if I lived closeby!

Few menu options. My wife's cheese curds were burnt and solidified. Waitress never brought the coffee I ordered. Football Sunday and all but one TV were on college sports ESPN U.

So I heard this place was a great place to visit and so we were determined to give it a shot. My girlfriend and I got on the motorcycle and rode up to Balsam Lake which was about an hour and some change away from our home. When we arrived we were greeted by a taller lady whose name I forgot. Anyway, we ordered chips and dip, it was good and then the cook brought out some picked dip for us to try and it was delicious. Tiffany came over to help us, she was very kind, and helpful and seemed to get along well with the locals. The locals seemed okay I didn't have any issues, good food, wonderful service, motorcycle parking, and just a great vibe, thanks Tiffany!!

Super stoked to have stopped at this spot. We celebrated a wedding the night before and needed a little hair of the dog. Breakfast was delicious. The drinks did not disappoint. Our bartender was awesome. Extremely patient with our drunk (and obnoxiously charming) friend, but also fully open to a little bit of back and forth banter with him and our party. Highly recommend.

I'm a long time customer of the Otter, but I've never had the Prime Rib. It was fantastic. Great cut of meat serve with delicious broccoli! The staff is always on top of things and the Bloody's are good anytime of the day.
