“Era is the best restaurant in the Northwoods. We have been to ERA 8 times. The food is delicious. The service is impeccable. I recommend ERA wholeheartedly without reservation.“

“I used to strictly use the curbside service, but this summer has had the friendliest staff on record that I look forward to coming in to dine, even if I’m by myself. (Forgive me if I mess up names, but I want to give credit) Your J1 workers tell me every single visit “Bless you”, Savanna makes the best concrete mixers, like just perfect, you can actually hear Allison’s smile through the drive through speaker, Sky on registers is just naturally welcoming and always has the best suggestions that I’m convinced of an upgrade every visit (sig sauce on a burger, YES!), Abby (or Annie?) is constantly helping her staff and seems like a great support. I want to give a shout out to the owner for running a place that obviously cares about their employees to the point that they can genuinely care about their customers.
Call me sentimental over fast food, but I’m a fan of this store. Keep it up!“

“We stayed in Nic and Marlo's Black Bear Bungalow condo over the extended 4th of July holiday weekend and really enjoyed our stay. The condo is part of the former Black Bear Lodge, located on Little Saint Germain Lake's most desirable peninsula.The condo was freshly painted, very clean and well appointed with beautiful new major and small kitchen appliances, washer and dryer. Though we brought all of our own dishes, utensils, towels, etc. we found the kitchen cabinets were well stocked with dishes, glassware, kitchen utensils, towels and consumable supplies.We were pleased with the large master bedroom (King Bed) + master bathroom and second bedroom (2x Twin Beds + Pack-n-Play crib) with a second bathroom down the hall. Multiple closets in the bedrooms, bathroom and hallway offered generous storage to accommodate our family of family of 5.A beautiful new gas fireplace insert was installed in the open concept living room area days prior to our visit and a comfortable, large couch appeared fresh out of the showroom.High speed internet, WiFi, board games and large, flat panel Smart TV's in the living room and master bedroom kept us connected and entertained when it rained.We used the permanently installed charcoal grills, picnic tables and playground equipment just outside of the unit daily and noticed a dedicated boat slip was available ~50-feet from the sliding back patio door.Thanks to Nic and Marlo for a great stay... We'll be back again later this month!“

“Got to town after a long flight, this was the first place I went. This juicy burger was a magnificent start to a much needed vacation. It was locally sourced butcher meat cooked to a perfect medium rare, the perfect burger. Toasted bun, hot fries, at my table minutes after I ordered.

Wonderful atmosphere, the regulars and staff interacted with each other like a family, and I got to join it for about an hour on a Saturday. I’ll be here again on my way out of town, highly recommended.“

“I had the gyro and my husband had longhorn. Both were excellent. The Taziki sauce was amazing. Got the amaretto cheesecake for dessert, delicious but I felt the price was a little high for such a thin slice. And beware refills are charged per cup, no free refills here. My husband says he wishes he would have known that ahead of time. I mean he only had 2 but for $6 he would have passed.“

“Went into this restaurant had a nice bar.Great wood flooring staff was wonderful.Food was great, and on top of all of that, for 3 people we only paid $51. They didn't charge for my extra 2 beers and a shot. Absolutely. Make sure to check this place out. Fifteen dollar rib specials with chicken wings on tuesdays“

“Point octoberfest beer is good“

“Great new owners! Always something going on!“

“We vacation in the Northwoods fall and winter, and "The Whale" is almost always our first stop when we hit town around Suppertime on our way into town. FIRST, our server Sophia, was wonderful...on the ball, quick, friendly. This year, we noticed a couple changes that we didn't care for. The problems were (1) we were there on a FRIDAY, and the "Friday Fish Fry Menu" doesn't give people many food choices if you don't want fish, shrimp, or clam chowder. I had my heart (and stomach) set on their DELICIOUS sandwiches that come with their home-made chips and Au Jus dip. There used to be at least TWO of those on the menu...they were no longer offered on Friday nights. (2) We opted for the Friday Fish Fry, and were asked if we wanted tarter sauce and/or a couple other choices. I said YES to regular Tarter, and my wife took that AND the Honey/Mustard. When our bill arrived, we found that we were CHARGED $0.75 for EACH of those. REALLY? I've never been to a place that didn't include a lemon slice and tarter sauce by default as a normal part of the fish-fry plate.“

“Awesome food and waitstaff“
