We visited the restaurant a few years ago for lunch and it was pretty great. They have amazing pretzels that are the size of pizzas. Unfortunately, they’re only served at certain times. Disappointed number one. For our latest, and hopefully last, experience, we sat at a table by the bar where an unpleasant bartender begrudgingly took our orders. We were a little early for the dinner buffet so we spoke with the waitress and said we’d wait and munched on styrofoam(aka popcorn). She said to watch for the doors to open. We did and when no one came to get our orders, we were told we had to place an order for them to make the food, so we waited some more. After waiting a bit longer, we went back to the hostess station and were told it would be easier to move to the dining room but we could stay at the bar and she’d get with us shortly(this is the same waitress that said to wait until the doors opened and we could eat). Ultimately, we decided to move and were assigned another waitress. We finally were able to order but had to wait for salad plates to be delivered so we could finally have the buffet(in the restaurants defense, they did have plates at the main buffet station but the salad bar requires the waitress to provide a plate). The salad bar was okay(spinach was a little wilty), the soup(creamy chicken and the bacon) was outstanding, the Friday buffet was terrible. They explained the one fish was supposed to apparently be mushy and was absolutely horrible, the scallops were undercooked, the catfish was lukewarm, and the sweet potato fries were rubbery. When the cashier(possible owner) took our check and asked how the food was, I said okayyyy but a little undercooked. Honesty apparently is upsetting. She asked if we told the server but given her reaction to my lukewarm reaction to the lukewarm, being kind, food, I was hesitant to mention that the lack of service. Basically, if you want to spend $ 15+ for a buffet, then by all means, go there. Otherwise, save the money, headache and subsequent stomachache. If you’re looking for a great pretzel, just make sure you’re there for lunch… And only order a pretzel.

While traveling through Wisconsin on a Friday evening, we came across this supper club hoping to have a great Wisconsin fish fry. Usually, most restaurants offer an all-u-can eat fish fry, but instead their option was a seafood buffet with a salad bar. We were in somewhat of a hurry so we didn’t want to order off the menu and the buffet had what I wanted; soup, salad bar, baked and fried fish, and shrimp. My husband was more into the broasted chicken, cheesy potatoes and corn. Granted, the buffet was $ 15.00, so I understand why they weren’t using«fresh» seafood, but they would be better off serving two or three exceptional fresh items, instead of frozen mediocre foods. The shrimp chowder was about the only thing that had any flavor and seemed to be homemade. The baked fish was absolutely horrible, it was so watery and mushy. Had not idea what kind of fish they used for the fried fish, but it was only edible when using loads of tarter sauce to cover up the«fishy» taste. The perfectly round(meaning fake/frozen) scallops were cold and tasteless. The broasted chicken was dry, the fried shrimp was overcooked, and the side dishes were tasteless and/or dried out. I suspect that because this restaurant is located in a resort community, there aren’t a whole lot of options around, so they can get away with serving this type of food. We drove 7 miles off the highway to get here, but wouldn’t do it again. Maybe ordering off the menu would have been a better idea,

Good breakfast, lunch and dinner. Nice salad bar. They also pour a good drink.

Can drive up in your car… or boat. Right on the Wolf River. The white bass and walleye runs as well as snowmobile season pack the parking lot. Food is generally very good. Nothing that will blow you away but the prices are fair and the food is fresh and cooked properly. For sure order fish when it’s locally in season, fresh and delicious. Bar is rather nice for being old, hard to consider it dated when it’s located in a town with a population lower than 1,000. :b One side of the bar is low enough for a row of normal chairs rather than barstools… a very comfortable feature. Be sure to specify if you don’t want your beer served to you in a can. Few premium drink options but offset by the lower than average prices. Wonderful and friendly waitstaff. A good place to check out during your next fishing escape.

Off of the beaten path, but another fremont gem. Cliff is the Ralph Cramden of Fremont
