“This place has stepped up its game in the last few years. The food and service is very good. I remember coming here several years ago a couple of times (I live in the neighborhood behind this establishment) and the service was awful. So great job manager, cooks, and waitresses. Tonight i had the fish fry haddock beer batter. 10 out of 10. Pizza appetizer 10 out of 10. Fries 10 out of 10. The server (sorry forgot her name) awesome. Thank you for the great meal.“

“We absolutely loved The Orville! Went to celebrate my husband's birthday and Valentine's Day, but decided to skip the hustle and bustle of V-Day. Sam was such a sweet and attentive waitress, couldn't ask for better service! We had the best artichoke dip I've ever had, I think it was the grilled toast that really did it, but the dip was amazing too! I had Lobster Mac & Cheese and my husband had a beautiful salmon dish...both perfect, and can't wait to have the leftovers from my Mac (huge chunks of lobster!). I had a lavender martini, simply lovely and delish! Tried my husband's old fashioned and yummmm to that too, had a cinnamon twist to it. We'll be back, hands down. And the ambience and lighting make for a very romantic time. Oh and they gave my husband a birthday card that everyone signed! Gave him a choice of dessert, just so sweet, no pun intended. It would be hard to find a better salted caramel creme brulee. Then since we had a late reservation Sam so kindly said we could take all of the remaining roses 🌹 🌹 🌹. They smell heavenly. Thank you all, we're so excited to have found you, when I heard it was the sister restaurant of The Norbert I knew it would be fantastic, but that's an understatement!!!“

“We had dinner here for the first time in Sweetest Day. It’s been on our list of restaurants to try for some time, but we’re new parents. We enjoyed the spicy poloma margarita! One of the best cocktails I’ve ever had anywhere. Then we had the pretzel crusted cheese curds and jumbo wings as apps. There wasn’t anything jumbo about the wings, but both apps were good. I had the pork schnitzel with spatzel and my husband the pork belly topped burger with fries. Phenomenal!!! Our server, Heather, was super friendly, fast and complimentary. I’ll ask for her again next time!“

“Been here 5-6 times already and have never had a bad experience. Best Eggs Benedict and fresh squeezed OJ around. Worth the wait when there is one.“

“There was one server and one cook when we went in on Monday at lunchtime. The server had 12 tables going at once! She did an awesome job! She took our order right away, our food was brought out quickly and was really good. She handled all of these tables so well and was super pleasant.“

“My wife and I stopped at Jugs Hitching Post for lunch on a Monday afternoon. To our surprise the special was BUY ONE BURGER/CHICKEN SANDWHICH GET ONE FREE. We both ordered burgers with spiral fries. These were definitely the best burgers we have ever had. our waitress was amazing and provided top notch service. This place was jam packed on a Monday afternoon at 1pm. The inside is beautiful and clean. Great up north feel and decor.We plan to come back again. This ace comes with the highest reviews here. Thank you!!“

“Excellent“

“Great food, great employees, great owner. Always entertaining“

“I really appreciated the way that the sandwich maker that I had spread all of the ingredients over evenly, it's kind of my pet peeve when they just do it all willy-nilly and don't make it like they're making it for themselves. It seemed as if she was making a sandwich for herself and I appreciated that.:)“

“I had chicken cordon bleu. I paid $16 for exactly what I could buy at Wal-Mart for $4.98. Definitely not worth the price.“

“I enjoyed trying the new menu options. We went with the Swedish Meatballs, Beef & Noodles, and gnocchi sausage stuffing. I normally choose Krimmers if in the mood for a steak (dry aged ribeye with blue cheese). They now have a lot of alternative pasta and entree dishes. It is a lot more versatile; we will be frequenting more often.“

“We stopped into Joker’s 5 for lunch after spotting it the night we arrived in town, and what a fantastic find. The moment we walked in, we knew we’d found the right place — a nice guest helped guide us in, and the bar was completely full of happy locals having a great time. What a warm, welcoming first impression!

We grabbed the two seat table in the back near the pool table and dart boards. My friend was craving a burger, but is very particular about how they’re cooked. After a quick Q&A with the super friendly bartender, we went with the double bacon cheeseburger with curly fries, deep-fried green beans, white cheddar garlic nuggets, and a couple of drinks.

The drinks were spot-on, the service was fast, and the food came out piping hot. Those garlic cheese curds? Absolutely out of this world — leave it to Wisconsin to keep raising the bar on cheese perfection!

My friend took one bite of that burger and looked ready to propose… to the burger itself. It disappeared so fast we actually ordered a second one to go.

Joker’s 5 is everything you want in a local hangout — great food, friendly people, a little gaming, pool, darts, and a laid-back atmosphere where you can just relax and enjoy yourself. I would definitely visit this spot again if I make it back out to West Bend.“

“Great food. Great staff. Great new location. I had lunch at Billy Sims BBQ in Joplin , MO and enjoyed wonderful brisket and was very impressed with the staff. Jennifer, Dontavious, and Brandon provided great service and a very clean environment. I will be back often.“

“I’ve brought my grandkids bowling all summer. Your staff is wonderful during the day. Thank you for a great summer!!! $10 for 2 hours and shoes per person is great!! Monday through Thursday!!“

“We had a great time, food was very delicious and Kennedy service Rocks ! Ask for her tables !!!“

“My husband and I took our 2 year old son there for lunch today and staff member Issac made it such a nice experience. My son loves lizards and Issac happened to have a lizard tattoo on his forearm and we asked him if our son could see it closer up, and he was more than happy to. Issac also got a Culvers Turtle plush toy and gave it to him so nicely. Very sweet person, very attentive and great staff member.“

“Ive been coming to Michalenos for well over a year now. Only in the recent months did I start dining in with my mother and daughter. We always come on a Friday, and we usually have Sarah helping us. She is always so kind and patient. My mother has early onset dementia, and often forgets where she is or what she says, Sarah never misses a beat reanswering questions or repeating what she already said six times before. She’s always prompt and accurate as well. Tonight, she was hopping, the phones were ringing off the hook, she had many tables and people coming in and out. She always had a smile on her face and never stopped moving! She suggested we try the baked pasta because we had the regular last time and it was delicious! I had the spinach lasagna and a fresh salad and it was all hot and delicious. The only complaint I had for the evening, is that you could tell the cook in the kitchen was very frustrated with his slamming, yelling and cussing. I know he was busy, we could see all the people, but maybe vent a bit quieter! Despite that, we’ll be back next week, and the next week, and the next week…“
