We just came from Black Hawk
The Best onion rings We ever had. Husband had Bluegill, it was vary good. I had the Chicken blt salad, very good. Waitress was awsome. Look forward to trying something else next time.
Read the reviews about their famous blue gill. Not impressed. It was overcooked and hard as a rock. The light breaded cod was ok. Beer battered cod was also overcooked and salty.Waitress was very slow and we were her only table for half our time there. Had to ask for silverware and water and fish she forgot. And didn’t know it was cash or check only until we walked into the place. Hate to be so negative. Hope you have better luck than we did!
Really fun place when they have music outside.
So glad the Blackhawk is open again!
Updated review. We went here for New Years Eve, and had a bad experience. Terrible service due to what appeared to be understaffing led to us staying two hours at our table. Food arrived over an hour after ordering slightly above room temperature and overcooked. They only accept cash or check, no cards. We would not recommend eating here.

Love the bartenders and the whole staff! Food is amazing 🫶🏻
Had been wanting to try this place for a while finally did tonight. Had a terrible experience they were busy they had one table that was very large and it must have thrown the whole place out of kilter. Did the all you can eat fish and after eating my initial serving I asked for one more piece of cod and a few pieces of catfish and waited about 45 minutes to get it. First they finally brought out one piece of cod alone and after eating that and waiting more i asked for the bill which i finally got served with the catfish at the same time as the bill. By this point we had been there about 1hr 45 min so all I wanted was the bill and to get the hell out of there didn't care about any more fish it wasn't that special anyway. Of course waited a bit more and they never came back for the bill so i took it to them and couldn't get out of there fast enough.The only reason I gave it a three stars because this place does bring in some good live music which i appreciate that but 1 star for food and service which I won't ever go back for.

There was absolutely nothing wrong that would make me take a star away. The staff was appropriately surly but in a Wisconsin friendly way. The kitchen was equally slow for everyone.
The burger was delicious and the extra cost for the fries was worth it. It has a fantastic dive bar feel and vibe.
They dont take cards but have an atm there that charges $3. It was exactly what We wanted.

Great fish fry
Rating on restaurant, did not use bar.
It's not a place to take your family with kids to eat. Staff was swearing at customers, thinking it was funny. This was a multitude of times. Food did not match the price. Flavorless. For example, nachos, the beef had no seasoning in it, other items were purchased, nothing finished, my friend was trying to finish her burger, but the plate was taken out from underneath her so no to go boxes needed. Over half the meals are priced over $20. I don't see the justification for this. Burgers, yes, $7.99, but it comes with no sides and a cold bun. The waitstaff didn't add anything positive to the experience. She was rude. She seemed to be upset with her co-worker. Towards the end of our dining experience, we were not going to ask her for anything but the bill as her vibe was so uncomfortable. Bar Rescue needed for the restaurant.

A pilgrimage to an old friend. Go where the locals go! Great burger and fries. As I ate at the bar, attentive bartender. Made me feel comfortable, solo diner.

My wife ordered shrimp tacos and I ordered the Blackhawk burger. The shrimp tacos were horrible. They had 2 pieces of shrimp in them...no sauce of any kind...all around bad. I had the Blackhawk burger which was pretty good. Onion rings were average. Our waitress was great but overwhelmed.
