We should have known it wasn't going to be good as no one was there and the kitchen staff was standing around. We ordered drinks --- mountain dew was watery and pale yellow., cocktail was ordered as a tall and served in a high ball glass.

There was 4 in our group-- 2 ordered the burgers which they say were good, 1 ordered a French dip but the au jus was highly salted and couldn't be used. The last person ordered the fish basket which was horrible! The fish was overcooked and hard. When brought to the waitress' attention, she suggested it would be removed from the check when ACTUALLY only a 15% discount was given.

To offset the lack of a decent meal, we thought an appetizer might be a good idea. WRONG! The potato skins were so overcooked they were hard and inedible.

Save your money and go somewhere with good service and good food.

Our friends came up from Arizona so 7 of us went to have dinner, we were the only ones in the restaurant our waitress Malery was unorganized, missed alot from our orders, she was not in any hurry to help us even though as you can see from the photos attached we were the only customers she had. When we told her we had been disappointmented with the service she reacted by telling us she had only been there for 2 weeks and it was our fault for her mistakes. I have never been told that it was my fault for the waitress mistake. We did let her know that because of the poor customer service there should be some kind of credit given, she told us she could not do that the cook and bartender would not let her. Being in the food industry myself I know that is false. Very very poor customer service, when you are a waitress customer service is everything. I will not be going back, very disappointed at the horrible service and response from the waitress Malery that would not take accountability for her mistakes blaming the customer. Unacceptable !!!!

We're from out of town. Didn't stay to eat. Five of us sat outside and only given two menus. A young child seated us. No drink menus given. Table next to us seemed to be getting ignored, and we overheard them ask for a server to come. Then the server came to our table instead ..so we sent them to their table. After 15 mins we just up and left. Server was standing at the bar and watched us leave. 🤦😐 it wasn't even that busy. 🧐

I dont like writing bad reviews, but this place deserves one star. Food came out cold, the shrimp tasted as if it was microwaved. The highlight of the meal was the nice cold spotted cow. The front was ran by high school kids with no training once so ever. I dont blame them, they where trying hard to serve people, with no knowledge about customer service, they just bombed miserably. I dont recommend this place at all, save your money or order in pizza.

We came here to try the foods for our Anniversary. The foods are excellent and price are reasonable. but the server needs more training. She very very slow. Foods come out without silverware. It’s takes forever to get your coffee refill. The whole meal never stop at our table. But she did 5 minutes after we finished our meal. And we’ve to ask for our bill. I feel so sorry for the table of 5 next to ours. They have their foods on the table without their silverware’s. Also, there is 1 server try to swept the floor and pull out the chairs against the concrete floor is very very noisy.

I would never stay in this run down Inn......We were staying there for our 45th wedding Anniversary, and what a dissapointment it was! First off, our bed broke on us in the middle of the night, second, our bed only had a mattress pad, no fitted sheet over it, so we had to use our top sheet for a sheet, then a bare comforter for a blanket. The room was really small and crowded. Then we wanted to stay and eat there, but, since there was no menu for there "lounge" we assumed it was just a bar....especially since they had 3 or 4 other restaurant menus in there hotel pamplet, then we went down to the hot tub, only to find it was not hot at all, very dissappointed , also had two little kids in it, kids not allowed...., and it was really run down in general. Will not stay there again.

This place in it's time was awesome. They really need to spend some money. Pealing paint everywhere and general lack of maintenance. The restaurant/bar is the huge downfall. They need a huge attitude adjustment. This last time is our last. Bar manager kicked our less that 21 designated driver (with his Dad there) out after we had been there for more than an hour and only 4 other people in bar. Then after asking several times if we needed reservations, the last of our party showed up. We were told it would be over an hour wait. Asked for the manager & the most arrogant pompous non gentleman informed us that is how it is. Our elder of the group, 80ish plus, who has lived her entire life here said that was totally embarrassing. As she put it. Her & her wealthy, happy blue haired ladies won't be back.

Food was great..if you got your food. Went to celebrate 2 birthdays (100 and 54). 11 in party. 2/3 of us received food that wasn’t what we ordered. One person didn’t get his food until everyone else completed their entire meal. To boot he didn’t get what he ordered. To add insult to injury was charged for a more expensive meal than what he ordered. The waitress said that “well he ate it”. After she said she would compensate him, she first offered a $10 of coupon for a future meal (he lives in Missouri), then took back gift certificate and gave him a $7 off his meal. During all the problems she kept sending out a young trainee to deal with the problems. On the plus side, the walleye was delicious while the vegetables were cold.

In short, Olive Garden and Perkins should be considered James Beard level compared to the food we were served. Everything was lukewarm and felt as if they were ran through a microwave rather than cooked (especially the fries, cheese curds, and alfredo). My walleye was decent especially without the tartar sauce therefore warranting the rating of 2.

The service was very sad, the restaurant was virtually empty when we arrived. We waited nearly 10 minutes at the hostess stand to be seated only to see several of the wait staff hanging around in the alcove to the kitchen, looking at their phones. On multiple occasions, I had to request another wait staff member to remind our server that we were ready to place our order or that we were ready to pay our bill. I promise I am not being over the top. There were literally three other tables of people in the restaurant that probably fits around 30 tables. There is no reason for a wait that long and when I say long, it was well over 10-15 minutes between requests. We were our server’s only table. Our server also forgot to bring us our salads and never checked on how we were doing or how the food was (maybe she knew and chose not to bother, IDK).

First time eating here while on vacation and must say the steak was great and the chicken wrap sucked. The prices are kind of pricey for the quality of food. Also, it was kind of disappointing when a waitress argued with me when I wanted to add another side to my steak order. It wasn't like I wasn't going to pay for the additional side. Chicken wrap had no real flavor. And there was like no chicken in it. I would recommend the steak. Especially if you like rare steak.
