    Walleye basket
    Matt J.

    Tried the hand breaded walleye basket and the fish was fried perfectly. Great atmosphere and the service was excellent. Very reasonably priced as well. Will definitely stop by if I'm ever in the area again.

    Bunyan's!

    Service was horrible. Walked in and was never noticed. Tables were dirty and nothing was picked up. Don't recommend. Save your money.

    Great burger and prices were very good. Game day specials on drinks and food. Even with a packed game day crowd the service was first rate.

    No matter when we visit Bunyan's it has been a good experience- food always good, service outstanding and can't beat pricing.

    We all ordered burgers and were really happy with them. Thick, juicy, cooked to order. Clean restrooms and friendly staff. We will be back!

    Terrible. I ordered a chicken sandwich and it was literally a chicken PATTY. So gross. Greasy. Overpriced. Will never go back.

    Bunyan's remains my last stronghold for good food in a one horse town. Asian Buffet is no more so I am now down to only one place.

    Meh. Decent food. It's basic bar & grill type food. Plenty of options. The guys thought the pizza…read morewas good but average. I was trying to eat light, so I had the grilled chicken breasts with veggies. I must say it was nice and moist and a generous portion. We all got plenty to eat and left full, which is a positive. The highlight and everyone's favorite was the soft pretzel with beer cheese appetizer. This one was above average, very good. The service was a little subpar. We stopped in after normal dinnertime hours, around 8:30 p.m., so luckily it wasn't busy, because the bartender had to bartend AND wait on tables. So he was stretched too thin. In his defense, there was a private party upstairs, so the wait staff was sent upstairs to tend to the party. However, they should have had enough staff on hand to handle both the regular business in addition to the party. Being that it used to be a lumber business, I did think the building was really neat. Overall decent experience.

    I was very underwhelmed by the BBQ Pulled Pork Sandwich. The store bought BBQ sauce was just poured…read moreon top of braised pork like ketchup. I should have had a clue when I walked in and the place was empty, while another place two or three doors down was busy. It was extremely noisy, despite being empty. The noise came from line dancing classes in the space above the bar/restaurant, and the games along the wall which weren't being played One tip to the young lady who was my server - Please don't call people "dear" or "honey". You aren't working in a 1970's sitcom. It is neither cute, endearing, or professional.

The decor and vibe of the restaurant was well done. Updated and well decorated. The waitress seemed put out we were there, unfortunately she was training another waitress, continuing to train the same bad habits. We had to wait about 10 minutes between each visit she paid to our table. There were a few times I had to get her attention or find her because she kept walking by our table without stopping or acknowledging us. The food looked good and tasted...okay. My wife got pulled pork which was not fresh. It was obviously re-heated from a prior day. Had a weird aftertaste. The best things were the buffalo spring roll appetizer and the milkshakes. The waitress did discount our order due to our dissatisfaction with the food. This was good customer service. The dirty trays were never removed from our table. The trainee could've easily done this since she was hanging out at the bar talking for most of the time. This isn't necessarily her fault. This is a training and management issue. This place should be packed every day it's open. It was less than half full when we were there for dinner. This is probably due to the bad things we experienced. Management needs to step up. You're robbing yourselves, your employees, your owner and your community of something good.

    **UPDATE: This review was posted for the Roadhouse located in Orange City, IA and NOT for this…read moreparticular restaurant located in Vermilion, SD and which I have NOT yet been to. ** Not much for dining options in Orange City, IA these days. The two terrific places I'd normally recommend are both gone. Think of the Roadhouse as the new man standing and standing only because there isn't much else standing around it! Food is average to above average. Average selection of beer and wine. The service and staff are the weak links in the chain, and, ultimately, why I couldn't give this place a more than 'average' review. The 'bartenders' are anything but. I was a bartender and server for years. The female staff of this place are lazy and more interested in gossip than in their customers. The male members of the staff were busy throughout and seemed much more attentive to their job than worried about anything not related to it. Good for them! I wish one of the men here would have been my bartender rather than the two women who didn't know what Tabasco sauce is or the one who told me that they "just don't have a need to have it!" You're a bar/restaurant and you don't have a need for Tabasco sauce!? If it weren't so sad and true this would be comedic! Bottom line: I'd not go out of my way to come here again. I could recommend many other places to go to in or near this neck of the woods. The Roadhouse is doomed for failure on its current course of mediocrity in both food and service. It thrives now because there is not much else for competition. Once a new player arrives that offers excellent food, outstanding service and a truly welcoming atmosphere the Roadhouse is sure to find itself as a relic left in the dust rather than a prosperous and sought after place to satisfy even the most modest foodie. If I were the Roadhouse owner I'd heed warning and get first your staff under control and go from there. If not, they will surely be the iceberg to your Titanic.
