Enjoyed their Fish-Fry yesterday. All-you-can-eat Wild Alaskan Pollock or Ribs! The fish was very good, their tartar sauce was tasty, and their old-fashions were excellent!
Service was friendly and attentive.
Had the all u can eat smoked wings. Excellent. Others in my group had the burger and also excellent! We shared the surprise cheesecake and baileys lava cake. Would definitely recommend this place. Friendly staff, cost atmosphere.
Paul and Elana did a great job hosting our large dinner group without a hitch! The food was excellent and plentiful from salad to dessert. The cornbread loaves received a 10+ rating. We all went home with to-go boxes for another delicious meal the following day. Highly recommend this clean, Northwoods cozy restaurant
