We always have a wonderful experience at Restore Public House. It’s our go-to night out! We always have great service with a fresh menu. The food is always fabulous. It will not disappoint!!!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Charming Dining Experience This restaurant offers such a warm and charming welcome — I felt right at home from the moment I walked in. Emma was my waitress, her service was attentive and friendly, and every detail, from start to finish, was excellent. I ordered the Shrimp Pasta, and while I didn’t snap a photo, I can confidently say it was absolutely delicious. Highly recommend this spot for a relaxing, high-quality meal out!

I took a star off because I do think there is not much value for the price. I had scallops, I think there were only three scallops. This is what the menu said 'Root Vegetable Potato Cakes, Bacon Bearnaise, Micro Radish'. It was very good, but for approx $30, there should at least be some kind of bread to accompany it. Every one else at my table got way more food. I left hungry. Like my husband said, there food was maybe ten dollars more. If I go back, I’ll just get the burger, hubby said it’s great and not as pricey.

Easily some of the best food in La Crosse. Every dish was better than the last and I can’t wait to come back!

Terrific rustic American restaurant with fresh, farm-to-table ingredients. Recommended for a nice night out with reasonable prices.

Intimate (aka small) in size, but definitely not in flavor and vibe! Was REALLY impressed with our meal!

First time visit last night, excellent food and service. I grew up about 3 blocks away on King Street and my grandparents lived on the corner of main and 19th. The burger was very good and had a interesting flavor which both of us enjoyed. For sure check it out!

A townie bar dressed up with overpriced cocktails and food. Nothing special or unique. One of the local owners even has his own special glass above the bar for when he rolls in drunk to annoy patrons with his obnoxious rambling.
Moving Kate's was a huge blunder.

My wife and I recently visited for a date night and had a wonderful experience. The atmosphere was incredibly chill, and we loved everything about the place, from the stylish decor to the charming plates and silverware.
The food was mostly excellent. I ordered the burger, which was fantastic, and I can confirm that the duck fat fries are as deliciously crispy as they look. My wife had the sirloin, and while it was perfectly cooked to medium rare with great flavor, she found it a bit chewy. This may have just been a bad draw on the steak itself.
For dessert, we indulged in the flourless chocolate cake and the mille-feuille. The mille-feuille was outstanding—I especially enjoyed the almond pastry cream. The flourless chocolate cake, though tasty, wasn't quite what we're used to. We often make it at home for special occasions, and this version leaned more towards cakey than fudgy, almost like a gluten-free take on a standard chocolate cake than your typical flour less chocolate cake which is a thing of its own. Still, we enjoyed it and finished it off.
Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant and will definitely return. I'm especially eager to try the elote pasta next time!
Oh. And great cocktails too.

we drive an hour to come here at least quarterly. we came for the first time on a recommendation for my birthday and i cried at how good the food was. the food is perfectly paired with sauces and flavors. we order at least 2 appetizers and a main. i am a vegetable lover and my partner is a meat and potatoes type. there’s more than enough to accommodate all palates. the pork belly is amazing. even just the burger and fries is phenomenal. the drinks are delicious too. my partner doesn’t drink and we appreciate the alcohol-free options. the host is always incredibly friendly. 4 stars for service we have had some amazing servers and some that were ehh. it’s worth every dime and we love coming here.

Service was absolutely phenomenal. Like above and beyond. The chef cannot cook a steak. I asked for medium, I’d have been fine if it came out medium rare or medium well. It came out so well done it was grey. Sent it back, they made another that was rare. Bleeding rare. I’m pregnant and that is not something I can suffer through. If the chef cannot cook a steak, they need to take it off the menu. My green beans were also under cooked but that’s not the end of the world. The fingerling potatoes were fantastic & my husband loved the elote corn. They took off the steak & my husband’s beer for the trouble, but I went home hungry because by the time the second steak came back raw we had to leave for obligations elsewhere.

Can’t speak to the food. But my husband called earlier to reserve a table and we originally reserved it for 7 pm. We called back around 20 til 7 and changed our reservation for 8 and both times it was for outside. We got there and she immediately tried saying it was supposed to be reserved at 6. BOTH TIMES it was way after 6 and when she said it would be a while there were literally many tables free outside and inside but she said it was going to be an inside table or we could sit at the bar. We don’t drink so that’s not an option. They had my phone number so if our reservation had been at 6 they would have called. We live literally less than 5 minutes from the place we actually live on the same street. We called after 6 the second time so I don’t know why they would have assumed any of our reservations were at 6 pm. We were embarrassed to say the least. This would have been our first time here and we were really excited to try it. It was also our anniversary. But instead we left because apparently we called and spoke Spanish or a language she didn’t understand even though she confirmed what we said both times. We won’t be back there. Ever.
This is kind of an afterthought but I really feel like we were pushed out of this place. Like they for some reason didn’t want to serve us. I was dressed nicely bc it was our anniversary. My husband was casual but he works constantly and was just trying to relax. I’m not sure why they sit there and lied to us with us able to see that there were MANY tables available unless they were trying to make sure no one else saw us there. We’re not rich, but we were paying customers and they read our reservation details back to us both times we called. I’d really love it if someone here could let me know why we deserved to be treated this way. Most likely I’m going to be calling to speak to someone in the next couple of days if I don’t get a reply here.
