Came hungry. Left confused, disappointed, and questioning my life choices.
This place is a far cry from what it used to be. Whatever made it good back then clearly clocked out and never came back.
I paid $32 for a shrimp plate and received three shrimp and a scattered plate of cold, crusty fries—which somehow felt even more insulting than the shrimp count.
The service was slower than a Windows 98 startup, the food looked like it lost a fight on the way to the table, and somehow everything was both cold and overcooked.
I’ve had better seasoning from my own tears. The waiter disappeared like my hopes after the first bite.
Atmosphere felt like a dentist’s waiting room with worse lighting. If you’re looking for regret served on a plate, this is the place.
Would not recommend—unless you’re into emotional damage and expensive disappointment

We use to love going, even had birthday dinner with family. We were there on Saturday 12/20, sadly the quality has diminished, fast food offers better, but with a high price. Food was cold to luke warm at best, it wasn't the service as i think they are doing their best with what they have to work with. The owner and manager didn't even care to come talk to us about the food we received, cold, instead they sent the cook, how sad is that. We weren't looking for any freebies, just wanted to discuss the sad meal we received. I can't imagine how they stay in business, we won't be back. Not only was it was cold but they downsized the portions, for the price we expected more. Shame on the leaders to not have the professionalism to come and talk to us.

What has happened to this place? Service is slow and sometimes non existent. food was cold and way overpriced. Will not be back. Will go a couple blocks north and get good food for the same price.

Worst service i have had in years. We waited 1 hour 15 minutes before our food came out. And when it finally did come out my prime rib looks like it was laying around all day and they quickly pan fried it to warm it up. Not what I expect from a 44 dollar prime rib. Not to mention our young waitress did not seem interested in any of her tables. This place is trash now.

Great food. Very expensive, but worth every penny.
Expensive, rather blan, terribly slow service. Ordered lobster mac...saw very little what was maybe lobster, tasted like imitation crab.

Slow service, poor food quality, loud background music. If you have 3 hours to waist your time and money this is the place to go.

It's been years since I've been to the Rhinelander pub and I decided to bring my mother there who used to be a waitress I understand it's a supper club And that the atmosphere is dark and kind of dinghy But for me that was Kind of a minus about the atmosphere
Our waitress was very nice I liked her But the odd thing was this place was not busy in fact it was almost empty and it took forever to at least get our order and then it took quite a while to even get the salads
It's not like I was watching the clock but I had my 88 year old mother there and even she said just before the salad came Come onnnn🤦
So compared to most of the fish fries I've been to I was surprised at how long it was taking
The salsa came where nice I enjoyed the salad it was a nice size that had plenty of dressing and you know not a lot of tomatoes or cucumbers but still it was it was acceptable
The meal then came immediately right after the salads which was nice
Unfortunately I was hugely disappointed with the fish fry. It was breaded haddock It was very very greasy very very mushy and not crispy at all it was it was a real disappointment
For the price is one pays I would not ever ever go back there and have fish again
I did get a huge baked potato but you can't get that wrong
The sour cream was excellent
The rye piece of toast that was on the plate was I thought pathetic
And there was a medicine cup of coleslaw which also was kind of pathetic
My sister had a steak and she said it was good not seasoned enough but she enjoyed it
Been to lotta restaurants in I would not go back
My bill was $78 and that was the hugest disappointment of all

Heard mixed reviews prior to going for dinner with a group of 8…. Place was not what it used to be blah blah blah lol
Having never been here before in we all went. The food was prepared well and tasted good. Service was good, honestly could have been a little more attentive but not bad at all. Drink order from the bar could have been faster (read several reviews complaining about this). Not sure what the delay was since it wasn’t too busy.
Overall, nice place with good food. Prices are a bit high but then again the margins for restaurants aren’t very high and they have to make a profit to stay in business.
For everyone complaining about the cost…unfortunately everything is more expensive and yes you can make it cheaper at home but that’s just the way it is.
The food is pretty decent, but the prices have increased recently and it doesn't feel worth it to come here regularly.
We ordered an entree that the menu said came with a choice of soup or salad. We chose the soup, and were upcharged for it despite the menu not seeming to suggest this.

Overpriced for what you get. Ordered pretzel sticks ($11) only for it to take forever to come out and I got 3 miniscule pretzel sticks and the wrong sauce. My friend got wings and fries, which came separately 20 minutes apart. Some other friends were seated at a table, got the wrong stuff, and almost got into an altercation with some other customers because they were a little too loud laughing. Culvers is a better spot than this place and they don't charge an arm & leg for everything.
