It seems to be a popular place and only one table was left near the door. It was a bit chilly with the people going in and out but the service and food made up for it. We started with the cheese curds which were very good dipped in their honey sauce. My brother and his girlfriend each had a burger and they shared so they could try each one. One was the picked loon and the other was the special for the day. They said both were good. They also liked the fries and tator tots. I got honey mustard chicken salad which was big. I had grilled chicken on it which was cooked perfectly. The bar tender was our waiter and he did a good job. It had kind of a hockey bar feel to it.

The location is not conducive to thinking top notch food and service just because of all the big rigs and being on the corner of a strip center. But boy were we pleasantly surprised. The server was very on top of things and personable as well. The crispy Walleye was absolutely perfect and a large enough portion to share for two senior citizens. The green beans were fresh and cooked perfectly. And the atmosphere inside was nothing at all like what you would expect from looking at the area. It was just the most pleasant evening of fine dining. Great wine list, too!

This is my opinion on the day we went in and do with it as you want…read more When we first arrived, they were busy. There was a Sunday brunch going on. No problem, we ended up waiting, maybe 15 minutes to get a table. There were 4 of us. That wasn't an issue and the staff was great. We got seated at our table and our waiter, I believe his name was Benjamin, was awesome. Great guy, didn't pressure us to order right away. Gave us time to look and would check in on us. All around great service. He was a 5 star! Even the atmosphere, with it being busy, was what you would expect. A lot of people talking and having a good time, no problems, no issues. We were kind of set back in the corner, which I'm thankful for, because we didn't have the noise from the Brunch area. The reason for the 3 stars is because of the food. With 4 people being served, you would think they would get the fries right? They were over seasoned on everyone's plate, horribly over seasoned. You might as well have been dipping them straight into the container of whatever seasoning was on them. Of the 4 orders of French fries, we left 2 orders on the table. I ordered the Gastro Pub Bison Burger, medium. Benjamin even started it was going to have some pink in the middle, and I said yes. The ticket even stated it. I don't know why they even put it on the ticket if they're going to cook it done. The burger ended up being over cooked and dry. It was a Bison burger, so there's plenty of moisture in those burgers when cooked to medium. This thing comes out as a little nothing sized burger. I wasn't impressed with it at all. My wife's order, Spinach and Artichoke Chicken Sandwich, came out good and she ate it all and really enjoyed it. One daughter had ordered a Buffalo Chicken Wrap. She's had them before at other places and was excited to try their's. Came out ok except for the, what she stated as being too spicy. And again, the fries were over seasoned. My other daughter order a Spicy Dill Flatbread, which turned out really good. She was the only one of us who did like the over seasoned fries. Now when it comes to food, I never send anything back and i don't say anything because we might not be done with ordering. I have the biggest fear about retaliation. You hear the stories from someone you know, of possibly something being a little sketchy when food is reordered or it comes back out, so I just don't do it. I have been here before and it is pretty much the same as I remember it. The staff being great, but the food just being not worth it. The funny thing is it's the Chef's name is on the door when you come in the building. If I was him, I'd be a little embarrassed that his cooking staff can't do a medium burger and do some retraining. At least watch what the cooking staff is doing while preparing food that his name is associated with. I don't need to go back there and eat.

I saw it on their online menu as well as on the chalkboard in the restaurant. So my husband and I sat down, ordered drinks, and went to order our food just to find out that apparently they haven't been receiving shipments lately to make the duck wontons. At that point, we had already ordered our drinks and it was too close to the kitchen closing to go anywhere else so I was forced to order something else. The rest of the food was good however, the corned beef was very peppery and the waitress knew that I didn't like spicy stuff so a heads up on that would've been nice. Overall, no matter how the food tasted. It was disappointing because of the expectations of having a duck wontons available. The least that they could've done is written something on their menu or crossed it off the chalkboard in the restaurant. That way I would've known ahead of time before we ordered. Also it says they are open until 10 but the kitchen closed at 8.

Oh well, the burger made up for the chips. Their burgers are smash burger style. Beer on tap is really good. What I didn't like was the bistro style seating on stools that are too small to accommodate a larger person. Mr. G. and I were uncomfortable due to seating options. More normal size tables and chairs need to be offered, not everyone likes bistro stools. This is a good place to meet up with friends and have a beer or two and some decent food. The concept of a place where time stands still fir a tavern was cool. None of the clocks work so time stands still. Over all rating is 4 due to limited table and chairs and the reliance on bistro stools fir seating.
