This was our first time dining at this location. My husband ordered the chopped steak which was very tasty. I had the walleye which had a crunchy coating. Delicious… no fishy taste or smell. The salads were crunchy and served on an ice cold plate! Very fresh taste The complimentary cake served to the birthday celebrant was scrumptious!! Very good luncheon experience.

Three of us tonight. Seated promptly and served our initial drinks. Calamari was great done to perfection. Two of us had prime rib. Just melted in your mouth. Our other Party had a filet cooked to order. Three sides: baked potato that was the size of a house fed us all. Sautéed spinach and mushrooms. Wheel me out now! But wait ... cherries jubilee for dessert. Always great food and a great time.
