“ My first time dining here. Easily one of the best dining experiences in the area. Great focused menu with quality everything and great service and cool atmosphere. I had the walleye and the smoked olives as an app. Walleye was great, served over a red pepper rice and broccolini which were great too. The smoked olives were awesome and unique and they making their way onto my BBQ catering menu. ”
“ My husband and I went for dinner to celebrate his birthday and it’s one of those experiences you can’t stop thinking about. Every bite of food brought a smile to our face, the vibes of the restaurant are top notch and the staff is incredible. You can tell they truly care about making sure your experience is one to remember. Definitely a 10/10 and we cannot wait to come back! If you visit you need to order the focaccia and pineapple rum cake! ”
“ Fantastic date night meal! The goat cheese starter is amazing. We got two pastas and the schnitzel, because we couldn't decide, and it turns out that was the best idea. All 3 were delicious! We will be back. ”
“ Had dinner for two there and requested two entrees we both wanted. They offered to split the entrees for us which was awesome, what service (Thanks Noah)! The food was absolutely unbelievable and everything was full of flavor! The Creme Brulee was the cherry on top (literally) and we will be back soon! Thank you for such a great dining experience! ”
“ A hidden and necessary gem in the fine-dining desert of central Wisconsin! WOW. The staff was so fun and welcoming, the service was fast, then dining room was special and cozy. Our party of 9 had an amazing evening! The flavors are BOLD. My husband and I have pretty developed palates, so some of the group thought things were *too* spicy or *too* salty, but we were grateful that things weren’t lacking in flavor! Our favorite dishes were the Brussels sprouts and patatas bravas! We were a bit underwhelmed by dessert, but we expected this based on the menu offerings. ”
“ Believe the hype!! This was one of the best meals I have ever had in my life! I would say the pork belly and lobster and shrimp risotto were my favorite dishes. Make sure to save room for dessert, the pineapple rum cake was a fantastic finish. The cocktails were also top notch. Erin B. was excellent, and made sure everything was wonderful. Keep up the good work everyone!! ”
“ One of the best meals of my life. Every detail, special. The Chef and his partner glow with sincerity. Perfect isn’t a word that we use a lot as chefs. But this meal was as close to perfect as any other meal I’ve had in my life. I’m in love. ”
