It was closed but the bar was open. It was a nice set up with a beautiful bar. My fiance and I were able to order some apps and a drink to relax and watch the World Series. Alex was a very attentive bartender that had a great attitude and personality. I did not get a chance to check into a room. The hotel the restaurant is in is extremely close to Mitchell airport making it an easy place to stay for a few days in town or overnight before a flight. They are doing a beautiful job renovating and updating the hotel on the inside! However don't work here...just a tip.

The only reason I didn’t give a 5 star is because of the limited menu. What they do offer is wonderful! Never had to search for my waitress they kept my drinks full & treated me like family!Could not ask for better service, super friendly 😁

This restaurant was the worst dining experience that I've had in Wisconsin in two weeks on my business trip, very unpleasant. In a party of 3 we only got two placement setups. The waitress wasn't very attentive as my glass of water was empty more than it was full with. I did get a refill but I had to ask for it. I ordered a steak and baked potato and wasn't asked how I wanted my steak prepared. When I asked about it, I was told that it was done already and it's medium to well. The steak was fine but my point was I wasn't given a choice. Then I wasn't given a steak knife nor condiments for my baked potato which was very dry. Then I looked at the ketchup bottle provided to my wife and it was just filthy so filthy that she had to open it with a napkin. In hindsight we should have left when the waitress Amanda didn't come right back to see if we were ready to order like a well run restaurant waitress would have. I never leave reviews for these kinds of things because I usually settle my business with managers. I try to offer my experience in a constructive fashion that allows the establishment to examine my complaints. This was the first time that I had ever asked for a manager and couldn't get one. Amanda said that she had been searching for one for 10 minutes and couldn't find him. I explained to her everything that I just wrote here and told her that since she can't find the manager I will have to take my experience elsewhere so that's why I am leaving this here. Poor poor experience.

Questions & Answers

Is this restaurant still operating? We went about 18 months ago and waitstaff told us they weren’t sure of the future since management/ownership had changed.

Yes it is still open 7 nights a week. Sorry to hear that you were misinformed. The building has been remodeled but with the same owner for the last 5 years. You are welcome anytime
