Outstanding food and ambience. One of the best collections of Wisconsin regionalist artwork seen outside of the Museum of Wisconsin Art. Service was first rate. It will set the standard for fine dining in Lake Country.

We had a friends dinner with 6 of us last night at North Star American Bistro, and it was lovely. The service was prompt, friendly and attentive but not hovering. All six of us enjoyed our meals. They were delicious and beautifully presented. I gave them 1 less star on value, because it was a little expensive, but all restaurants are now days. And it was a full house, so it was a little loud, but still possible to carry on a nice conversation without shouting. All in all a good experience, and we will go again.

Came for a birthday dinner, all my expectations were all blown out of the water and we had such an amazing experience. My only complaint was that we had to wait over 20 mins to start wine tasting which set back our reservation, although we showed up more than 45 mins early, but not a big deal at all in my opinion. Definitely returning!
