    Grilled Pork Tenderloin

    Best pork chop ever. Best crème brûlée ever. Best service ever. Great ambiance. Great indoor and outdoor patio. Listen to their customers and are always accommodating. Daily specials never miss. Great drinks. I come here at least once a week because it's so good. Definitely try it.

    First time to the 1855 Saloon. Although expecting a real saloon (swinging entry doors, large mirror behind the bar, sawdust & dirt on the floor), the feel was excellent. Service at the bar was fantastic: quick & entertaining, knowledgeable & efficient bartenders (Madyson & Makenzie (?)) serving delicious adult beverages . Food was excellently prepared and a good portion size. Made a fun evening. Thanks

    Chocolate cake dessert

    Went for dinner after a Badgers game (they won) ambience was really good, dimmed lights, candles on the tables really made the experience enjoyable! Our waitress Mary was very pleasant and attentive! I had the pork chop with a Dijon sauce. The pork chop was so tender and juicy 10/10 would recommend. Then had the chocolate cake dessert, best dessert I have ever had!!!

    Overdressed Caesar and disappointing pizza.
    Mary P.

    Let me start with one positive note....service was fabulous. Our waitperson was friendly and attentive. But everything else was subpar. I'm guessing new ownership making bad choices. This is probably our fifth time dining here so we can see the differences. Wine prices up with smaller pour. Our "artisan" bread was sliced commercially made rolls. Caesar was drowning in dressing and croutons. Pizza was burnt, scant on toppings and there is no way that crust was made from scratch. Very disappointed.

    Friday fish fry on the patio!
    Brian J.

    Don't know why I haven't reviewed 1855 before, sat out on the enclosed patio and it was cozy and scenic. We had the Friday fish fry, the fish , clam chowder fries and coleslaw were great and the staff was also pleasant! Never had a Manhattan before and it kicked my but, 1 and done!

    The food and drinks are all great! But the service has really gone downhill. This used to be one of our favorite places.

    Looks like a great place with the big log frame. Something about it says it should be great…read more Went after a soccer game, not too many people were in the place, about 8 at the bar and 3 tables in dining room. I'm not sure if they were under staffed but they seemed confused so no host was there and we kind of just stood there for a while. It took awhile but we were eventually seated. We were then seated. I believe the name Micheal was our waiter. We asked about drinks, not much in way of craft beers. So old fashioned,a Yuengling, a coke and apple juice. Granddaughter said apple juice was good! Friday night fish fry, what do they have? Catfish, walleye and cod. So we ended up with 2 catfish, a walleye and a cheeseburger. 1 catfish with fries and side salad. 1 catfish with baked potato and side salad 1 walleye with baked potato and side salad. Burger and fries. It took awhile for salad plates to come, it was A salad bar. Very basic salad bar, they are glad I didn't take pictures because the salad bar looked weak, not so much with topping but the lettuces looked old and barely enough for the 3 of us. They brought the burger, walleye and 1 catfish plate. Gave walleye and catfish to wrong people; we said I we think you have wrong people, they said no. You can kind of tell a catfish filet from walleye. He asked me to cut into my fish to tell the difference; he then agreed they were mixed up. My catfish had baked potato instead of fries. He said I'll get you the fries, I won't charge you for the baked potato??? Kind of strange response- why would you even think that. So we ate and pretty much done eating, my fries arrive. Oh well! He was gracious enough to say we gave you a few extras; my side didn't look any bigger than another guest portion. We enjoy hitting Wisconsin dive bars and usually they have great food! Actually the fish was good, but portions were small, 1/2 filet each for what we paid in my humble opinion. While we go back to revisit other past places while we are here, I very much doubt we will be back here. Maybe we just hit an off night since I see other positive reviews.

    Service was excellent. Dining area could have been warmer. Place has been in business a long time…read morebut the lack of cars or customers should have told me to leave.. that and the dark parking lot. Ok i ordered spaghetti. It cane with chili or a salad. I took the chili. Tbe chili was excellent. But the spaghetti and meatballs was disappointing. Tastes like spaghetti o's without the circular noodles. So my recommendation is if you like chili check it out. Hard pass on the spaghetti although the garlic bread was good. Maybe bring kids for spaghetti if they like the taste of spaghetti o's. I noticed they have a fish fry - maybe that would be good. I had high hopes. Maybe everything else is great. I was the only one eating at 7pm so i think that might indicate otherwise.

    After a beautiful fall day with my family, filled with hayrides, corn maze, pumpkin patch, and…read morecaramel apples, we stopped at a local bar and grill known for its Wisconsin charm. We filled two tables in the main dining area and just needed a third to accommodate our group. There wasn't one available in that space, so we simply asked if we could borrow a table from the adjacent banquet hall. That room was wide open, with dozens of empty tables, no signage, no setup, and nothing to suggest it was reserved or in use at any point that day. The staff refused. No explanation. Just no. We asked again. Same answer. Interestingly, another group nearby ended up with an extra table. I don't know where it came from, but it raised questions about how decisions were being made. Here is what made it hard to ignore. I have lived in Wisconsin long enough to know what normal looks like in places like this. My family does not quite match that mold. The refusal did not come with a reason. It came with a shift in tone. A kind of quiet gatekeeping that did not feel like policy. It felt selective. I am not here to accuse. I am here to ask why our request was denied when others appeared to be granted the same. Why was no reason given. And why did it feel like our presence changed the rules. Hospitality means making people feel welcome. That did not happen here.
