We came in last minute on Valentines Day, and would have had a reservation had I known I was going to be called off work. The host told us it would be a wait, but never specified a time, so we didn't think it would be that long. After we arrived, she offered a table in the bar area to multiple arrivals (at least 4) before waiting at least 45 minutes to offer it to us. We didn't even get our complimentary bread until after our appetizer because we asked for it.
The menu was limited due to the holiday, but we still waited longer than reasonable for a medium (very low quality, full of gristle) steak and lobster. The twice baked potato and mashed potatoes were like eating paste.
From the atmosphere it's clear they cater to their regulars, which is fine. But even if the food was better, why would we want to go to a place where an open table was offered to others who arrived after us?

This has become our go to place for Friday fish fry. From the salad bar to the Chef special everything is always good. Service is excellent and drinks are strong.

Reserved a table for 4, a week ahead of time, for a 5pm Friday dinner to surprise my MIL for her birthday.
This place met and exceeded our expectations for food, service, and surprises!
The waitress, Shelley, was very attentive to our needs and kept our waters and drinks filled and coming! She even surprised our table, and my MIL, with a cream puff cake decorated in whipped topping, sprinkles, and a lit candle for her birthday 🎂 Everyone's plates came out hot and to order and in a timely manner! I believe having a reservation was smart for a Friday evening, as the place was filling up as we were beginning to leave!
With each meal we were offered the salad bar, which had all the good fixings like breadstick crackers, patè, broccoli salad, and fresh fruit! My husband enjoyed the clam chowder! My favorite was the ahi tuna crostinis we ordered as appetizers😋
The broiled walleye I ordered was perfectly seasoned and tasted fresh! The steak came out hot and to order and my MIL raved about the lobster tail and how she could order 3 more! The frog legs were also done perfectly and I took my FIL's word that they were😄
We will definitely be back and have already suggested it to friends!!
Thank you for making our night special and satisfying, Torchlite!

Dixon’s knocked it out of the park! The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, our server was friendly and made us feel right at home, and the food was absolutely delicious.

But let’s talk about those croutons perfectly crunchy, perfectly seasoned, and dangerously addictive.

I’m convinced they have magical powers because I couldn’t stop eating them. If they ever start selling them by the bag, just take my money now.

Torchlite is still the best place to eat in Shawano county! My wife and I came here 31 years ago on our first dinner date for our homecoming dance in our junior year at Marion High School. It was excellent then and it continues to be just as amazing. Great bar, salad bar and staff that truly cares about making sure you are taken care of. See you next summer!

First and last time here. So not worth it. Had reservations for four people and still waited an hour for our meals. Salad bar was very basic and our meals were not memorable at all. Waitress was also super frazzled and not very attentive. Disappointed☹️

The all you can eat fried cod was so good. The fried walleye was outstanding, as was the clam chowder soup.
