“We used The Suburban Bourbon / Three Legged Pig for our Wedding on 9/3 at the South Shore Pavilion in MKE and I cannot recommend this place more, 10 out of 10! We ran into a catering glitch 2 months before the big day and found this business- the owner Pete swooped in to save the day! He was extremely responsive, helpful, friendly and FUNNY and helped make it one of the best days ever! Everyone LOVED the BBQ, mac and cheese, CHIPS and late night paninis. The food and service was SPOT ON! They also accommodated our vegetarian and GF friends :-) I will always call this a serendipitous encounter and I am so happy to have found The Suburban Bourban/ Three Legged Pig/ Pete and the whole crew, thank you all!“

“First time here and we will be back. Great food with great flavors.“

“Ww absolutely love the fish fry at Hickory Sticks! They have a family deal that works out perfect for two couples.....Their deck overlooking the golf course is so relaxing, and great to use when the weather is nice....The beer batter fish are nice sized pieces, and is plenty for the average person....Great choices for sides, including some amazing mashed potatoes, glazed carrots(My Favorite), and potato pancakes in addition to fries......Give it a try! One of my favorites in the area ..“

“Went for the Friday fish fry with the family. As most places it was busy around dinner time on a Friday (30 minute wait). A young lady pointed us over to the hostess table which is on the opposite wall of the entrance. Once seated server was there almost instantly. Drink and appetizer order was taken immediately. Wisconsin cheese curds were light and stringy, our boys loved them. Chicken wings were good, crispy where sauce wasn’t applied, think I might actually like them better this way. Grilled shrimp was ordered by a few of the family and they were large compared to most other places. Red potatoes were soft and well seasoned. Baked Cod fish fry was great, potato pancakes were also softer and not greasy. Will be returning again.“

“Absolutely delicious food!“

“Wow, what a great restaurant! The cozy bar area, great staff, wonderful food. I just moved to the area, and I'm looking very forward to becoming a regular.“

“Great food and great service. Mary Margaret was our waitress and she was SUPER“

“We ordered for the first time yesterday at Brothers Gyro & Pizza. The Pizza was the best pizza we had ever eaten. Best crust, best sauce, plenty of cheese and toppings. Perfect! Brother's will be a go to for us for pizza and I can't wait to try the gyro. ❤️“

“Went to Cotton Exchange for their Bunch on Sunday. It was great. They even had prime rib sliced along with the regular breakfast sides. The eggs are made individually for you how you want them done. They had salad, desserts, spaghetti, beef and noodles, chicken and many other dishes. It was very reasonable priced. Party of 6 with 2 children and bill was only $107.
It was so good my husband and I went there to celebrate our anniversary 2 weeks later after looking at pricing for steaks at closer establishments. We made the right decision. I had Steak Oscar and my husband had a 10 oz Filet. It came with salad or soup, vegetables, rolls and baked potatoes. It was awesome. They only purchase the top beef from approved sources. Steaks were under $40. It my favorite restaurant and atmosphere is country with great wood design for warm and cozy feelings.“

“Great Food. I’ve been there 10 times. The pizza is homemade and top 10. The fish fry was excellent. Cod -perch-walleye. Greatness“

“I got a chance to try Coach’s Reuben sandwich and the quesadilla with chicken. Reubens are one of my favorite sandwiches to order, so I can be a little picky about them. This one did not disappoint! The corned beef was the good stuff, shredded, no fatty bits mixed in, and it was really tender. The quesadilla surpassed my expectations for an appetizer. It was a really hearty quesadilla with a tasty mix of fillings and toppings, and I would definitely order it again!“

“Celebrated my daughter’s 40th birthday at Double D’s. The staff were amazing. They checked in multiple times during the event, helped with planning the food and even assisted with the surprise!“

“Ordered: All-you-can-eat fish fry

To start off with All-you-can-eat fish fry comes with fish, fries, coleslaw, rolls, and rye bread around $20.00 per person

One of the most exceptional dining experiences I have had in a considerable amount of time.

The fish was exceptionally well-prepared, devoid of any fishy taste. It was crispy and not overly greasy, making it a highly recommended dish. I would rate it 5 out of 5.

The French fries were served extremely hot, unlike the soggy ones commonly found elsewhere. However, they lacked any discernible seasoning, resulting in a bland taste. Overall, I would rate them 4 out of 5.

Rolls and rye bread was fresh and not dried and hard 4/5

The rolls and rye bread were fresh and not dried and hard. I would rate them 4 out of 5.

The coleslaw and tartar sauce exhibited distinct differences. Initially, the coleslaw presented a creamy texture, but the vinegar flavor ultimately dominated it. Conversely, the tartar sauce retained its characteristic taste, although it lacked the expected tanginess when consumed. I would rate them 4/5

Overall 4/5

*This establishes may serve better food then what I ordered*“

“Excelente lugar, muy buen vino, comida exquisita, un servicio de calidad .“

“Love coming in. Had a grilled cheese with pickles. I added bacon, excellent sandwich.. Everyone very friendly. Had a salty nut roll martini. Everyone should have at least 1.“

“We went for China Lights 2025 and it was wonderful! We bought the family four-pack for around $80 and drove 1:20 from near Chicago and it was totally worth it.
Very interactive. Lots of interesting prehistoric lights, enchanted forest, the zodiac, fish, dragons and crocodiles and a whole interactive area with swings, seesaws, dance floors, music interactions, a life tree, Halloween lights, pumpkins, games, bubbles and more.“

“My favorite fish fry in Burlington! Both the beer battered and baked cod are outstanding! Drinks are great and at a reasonable price. The burgers? AMAZING! And the appetizers are fantastic!“

“If you're not there on Tuesday for wings, then what are you doing with your life?? always amazing“

“The food here is amazing. The owner Ryan is so nice! We had burgers and everything was awesome. Can’t wait to go back!“

“Muy bonita la experiencia me encantó, mi familia la pasó genial. 🥰“

“We picked up the hand breaded fried cod with fries and potato pancakes. I have never had a take out fish fry that I’ve loved after getting it home, until now. WOW. The breading was crunchy, cod was cooked perfectly, it came with a delicious coleslaw, rye bread, tarter sauce (yum!), applesauce and lemon. This is absolutely a top 3 fish fry for me. We can wait to go back!!!“

“I had the macaroni and cheese. There was a lot of sauce, but very bland. I took mine home and added more cheese. Service was great and the prices reasonable.“

“First time here heard about it through friends. It didn’t disappoint us and the server was very friendly.“

“Great food! And great service“

“Had a wonderful experience there Friday night! Our waitress, Jenna, was absolutely amazing! She had some wonderful suggestions and was so kind, quick and helpful. She is FANTASTIC!!!“

“I’ve had a few little glitches with my orders, but this place is super busy and run by lots of young kids. The general manager, Nate, is awesome. He displays professionalism and great customer service always with a smile.“

“great pizza, friendly staff“

“Bartender service was amazing Cute too! Friendly and good food“

“Great BBQ restaurant in Waterford. Otis and staff were extremely friendly. Brisket was outstanding as well as the smoked sausage and beans. Definitely will be coming back.“

“The banter with Tim and the best frish fry anywhere to be found.“

“Love the Bosch“

“I am beyond disappointed with my experience here. We asked the bartender for a simple mushroom garnish for our drinks, but they mistakenly rang up an order of breaded mushrooms. When we tried to clarify the order, the bartender completely lost their temper and started screaming at us, accusing us of lying about what we ordered. ​Mistakes happen with orders, but being screamed at by staff is unacceptable. It was embarrassing and ruined our night. We won’t be returning until management addresses the extreme lack of professionalism behind the bar. this occurred at approximately 530-6 pm on 1/2 26 for reference for management as to who the young male bartender on duty was..“

“Your crew there is awesome. I had the nicest opportunity to meet Noah and Stephanie your 3rd shifters. So polite so nice and 😎. I only met them 4 times but we have the best talks. I love coming there to see those two. Iam a night owl so we all relate very much. It will bring me back to see them two. and your amazing food they handle very well. I work in the kitchen industry so I know. So thank you very much we need more people like them. I hope you take care of them..“

“Came here a few weeks ago for dinner. We have been meaning to try it here and finally made a point to stop. My boyfriend and I shared sweet potato fries and das Brat. Wow! We were very impressed with the taste and quality. Everything that was being brought out around us looked amazing, as well. We wanted to try it all. Our bartender was super friendly too! The space is super cool, has a large bar, lots of tabletop seating and also outside seating area. We will definitely be back. The food here is far superior to anything you will get in Luxe golf bays, so if you are going there thinking you will get food, just save yourself some time/money and stop here first!“
