The Lily Pad/ Golden Frog Restaurant and Saloon

Stopped in for a quick beverage. The patio is amazing! The bartender service absolutely sucked. 3 bartenders behind the bar, only one other person at the bar, no acknowledgment, no “be with you in a minute”, not even a smile. Stood there for 5 minutes before being served and the guy had nothing but a crap attitude. The pizza looked good, but we decided not to stay to find out if it was any good based on the crap service.

Good fire brick pizza with a view to die for. I am from the area, and it is like I am in a different country when I am on the deck here. Breathtaking!

Boaters welcome--lots of dock space. Not arriving by boat? Enjoy the river from the nicest patio around. Great wood fired pizzas. Umbrellas at every table. Inside is cool and welcoming. Full bar.

Just across the street from it's parent place, The Golden Frog. Newly remodeled with a great cozy and rustic feel. Good drink specials paired with great hand tossed pizzas. My personal favorite was the option to create your own. A wonderful play area for the kiddos, live music and an entirely shaded downstairs make this bar a must-stop, whether you're taking the bike out for a spin or if you're just passing through town! You'll certainly be glad you did just like we were. We loved it and we'll definitely be back.

A group of eight of us went there this weekend, along with two children, who had a ball in the play area. The pizza was very good. Beer choices were robust, and the view on the upper deck was fantastic. Would highly recommend.

More than half hour wait at lunch today

We love stopping here with our boat, and last year we didn’t have any issues with the pizza. This year it’s our second time stopping and we have not had the best pizza for the price. They charge you $20 bucks for the kids “tadpole cheese pizza” and it came out way over cooked. (See pic). They also need to cut the slices better your only provided plastic knives, and you can’t get the slices cut apart without practically breaking the knife. We love the atmosphere, boat dock parking, and kids play area. Im up in the air if we will continue to keep coming after this last experience with the food. They really need to figure out the pizza it’s not worth the price.

Pizza made us sick from both ends. Do they pay off health inspector? Owners are rude to foreigners.

We have a group of friends t.hat we get together once a month for lunch. We live anywhere from 30 minutes to 2 hours from each so we try to pick places in the outlying area so no one has to drive the full 2 hours. The drive is really pretty any way you go so none of us really mind the drive. I called & made reservations & they had their back room all ready for us. The waitress was fantastic! We never had an empty glass & she was always right there for whatever we needed. The food was excellent.We all had wraps, burgers sandwiches, fries & cheese curds. The cheesecurds were so delicious & a very generous portion.
We were very pleased all the way around & will definitely be back again!

Staff had no desire to welcome us, seat us or service us. Restaurant didn't seem busy so we left and spend our money elsewhere.

I had great expectations. The location is wonderful but the pizza was the worst I have ever had. Bad crust, bad quality cheese, nasty sausage. I would go back to enjoy the atmosphere but never to eat that pizza. Sorry for the review. But you would have a Great place if someone new pizza.

Great vibe. Deceiving with advertisement. Burger was so dry I about choked on it, for some reason can't upload picture. Frog legs tasted soggy as well as the Buffalo chicken wrap, funny how it's supposed to be crispy. Went at a dead time as well.
