Par 5 Bistro at Par 5 Resort

I dont recommend eating or drinking at the bar and restaurant. Today I received the poorest service I ever had after condo owners meeting. It was even worse than last years service. I would recommend going a block down to Champs. The service and food is fantastic.

Thought we would try some where new for a Friday fish , walked in ..not a soul atThe bar, drinks were flat. Ordered and waited 30 minutes and then was told the walleye was not thawed yet …. Needless to say we left.

My husband and I ate here tonight, it gets better each time. Tonight, I had chicken alfredo it was so creamy and flavorful. I also had the BEST soup of my life, no joke! I loved it so much I ordered 2 bowls to go. We're looking forward to our next visit.

Waited for anyone of the five servers who walked by us to acknowledge our existence. Left. Pathetic.

We were at Par 5 Bistro over the weekend....the service was horrible on Saturday April 15, 2023. People were getting frustrated as the bartender (Dorie) would not wait on customers that were there first...she would wait on people she knew and ignore other customers. There were some customers that just walked out because they could not get served. They actually then called in the Golf Pro to help out...he was very helpful and apologized for the service that was being provided. There was a wedding that day along with the Owner's Meeting for the Fox Hills Condo ownership....this bar should have been staffed better than it was...also the bar did not open up until 3:00 pm...people that were attending the owner's meeting were upset they could not get any drinks as the meeting started at 1:00 pm. The bartender would take orders from people in a group and then disregared the remainder of the group. She should not be interacting with customers as her attitude SUCKED. Hopefully this issue gets corrected before the busy summer golf/vacation season, if it does not I guarantee this business will be suffering...which is bad as we like to come to Fox Hills but if this continues we will not be back.

My wife and I went here with high hopes, but even low hopes would have been shattered with our experience. It took us over an hour to get our food, it came out over cooked. We ordered maple salmon and prime rib (medium rare).The salmon was dry with a consistency similar to sawdust with an overwhelming fishy taste to it (no maple taste whatsoever lol).The prime rib came out well done instead of medium rare with no crust whatsoever. The taste of said prime rib was not quite right. I have no words to describe it other than funky. It was grey/brown and tough. They somehow took one of the best cuts of meat, in my opinion, and made it one of the worst meals I’ve had.The fries were undercooked. The soup had little flavor. The salad was warm. The Coca-Cola was pretty much water.This is the only time I’ve ever returned food. The salmon made my wife, who loves seafood, throw up almost immediately.When I told the bartender about the food, she sent the manager to us immediately. I told her about what was going on and she was giving me a hard time about the food, saying that she just had the salmon and it was “fine.” Even if it was fine, which it WAS NOT, I am not paying $22 for a piece of salmon the size of a bar of soap that’s “fine.”After the argument, the manager said she was going to take our food back and get our original waitress. It took over a half hour for us to get the bill for our drinks.We left without receiving an apology of any kind. My only wish is that I could bill them for the hour and a half of our time that they wasted. Again, this is the ONLY meal I’ve ever sent back in my life. I will happily tell anyone I know about our experience and our desire to avoid this place from here on out.The fact that they made us pay for our 2 drinks after the experience we had is appalling to me. They were made horribly.To all reading this review, have fun if you go there. Maybe your experience will be better, however, I recommend going down the road the the next place.

Horrible food ... wonderful waitress.*Last year, the Valentine's special was actually special. Romantic atmosphere, awesome food but the abundance of waitstaff could not figure out what was going on & wait times were long.***This year, not romantic & only one waitress who had to seat people, bartend, deliver food, apologize for subpar food, bus tables, and take payment. SHE WAS A ROCKSTAR. Salmon was scalding hot (obviously microwaved) & very fishy, mashed potatoes were room temp, microwaved frozen veggies from a bag with no attempt at seasoning, regular pre frozen baked texas toast. Everything could have been bought from the freezer section at the Piggly wiggly & microwaved.Paid $66 for a few bites...at least the beer was cold.

Terrible food. Long waits. The Valentine’s Day special was far from special unless you count how poor the food was as a “special” quality.The door was even barred when we arrived, despite it being over an hour since they’ve opened.The potatoes were clearly microwaved, all of the food lacked seasoning. The garlic bread was very obviously texas toast from the local grocery store with nothing done to it besides being cooked unevenly. The maple salmon was extremely dry and fishy.Fortunately we were able to get our food returned without having to pay after some defensive comments from the manager. Another positive was that a nearby restaurant, “champs,” had very good food and took about a 3rd of the time from entrance to exit.

Need more organization. Need to have more food options open especially for a resort of that size.

(July 2020)Service was great, very friendly and welcoming place, but the food wasn't very good, in my opinion. I ordered the philly cheese steak sandwich with tater tots. The meat was disgusting and had a freezer burnt taste to it. The onions were un-sauteed and basically raw, the mushroom I requested were canned and almost nonexistent, they put green peppers on my sandwich when I specifically asked them not to, and the sandwich was extremely overloaded with a flavorless processed shredded cheese. The tater tots were also burnt and inedible. It was an unenjoyable meal.(Updated Review January, 14th 2021)I decided to give this place another try while staying at the resort this week. I ordered a mushroom and Swiss burger with tots, the chili nachos, and the Wisconsin macaroni and cheese. The burger was good. I asked for medium and got well done, but the burger was well seasoned and had good flavor. And the tots were golden brown and crispy the way they are supposed to be. The chili nachos were also good, but a bit on the spicy side. I’d recommend having different levels of heat and posting on your menu that the nachos are spicy, and I’d love to see a seasoned ground beef(not chili)option as well. Unfortunately, the Wisconsin macaroni and cheese wasn't very good. The breadstick it came with was burnt, and the cheese sauce tasted like it was a powdered or cheaply canned sauce that had a very unpleasant taste to it. I really wanted to like it though, macaroni and cheese is one of my favorite foods. With some very small and inexpensive improvements, you will have a great dish.This was a much better experience than the last time I ate here. I enjoyed a majority of the food we were served. I am looking forward to giving this place another try.

We were there to celebrate our 50th anniversary, the website advertised that they had a restaurant. When we got there we learned the restaurant was closed do to staffing issues. So we had to eat at the 19th hole. Brats and burgers and chips, very disappointed told the front desk all they said was so sorry. Will never go the again.

According to their website, the kitchen is open until 9pm. Well that is a lie. I checked into my room at 6pm and they told me only the bar is open. The kitchen is only open for breakfast & lunch. Please update your website then!

Have been coming up here for 25 years with a large golf group. Was very disappointed to see how much this has gone downhill. It appears that everyone has resorted to going up to Champs at the corner, me included. At most there were 10 people in this place on prime time Friday and Saturday night

Tried to eat there and the the worker said they closed without telling employees! We are staying at the resort. Champs Sports Bar, across the street has good casual food!
