Nick, our waiter was very helpful in assisting with our food selections. The building is beautiful and on this hot September evening, air conditioning was much appreciated! A great place to frequent!

We were in town for the night and decided to stop in. We were able to walk in and shared a large…read morehigh top table. We got the walleye fish fry and the birria tacos. Both were good but not great. They just needed something extra. We did wait a while to get service, but our waitress was very nice and helpful. I'd come back and try a few other items on the menu.

I absolutely devoured my food. Husband got the burnt ends burger (can't remember the exact name of the dish) and he says it was perfect. Our waitress was perfect. Even our table was in a perfect spot! I'm sure I'll return to La Crosse someday and we ARE eating here again.

I went to Buzzards Billy's for my sons birthday. We had a larger group of 10 with some being kids…read more The time of getting our food was not a problem that was actually pretty fast. But fast doesn't always mean hot. My food and my wife's were both like warm. We had to ask for our drinks 4 times due to some of us would order drinks and then she would leave till we asked again. My pop was flat, thought that was weird for a bar/restaurant. We did get a picture of water so we could refill our waters at least. The restaurant is clean and well decorated. It's a little tight with a larger group but that's expected. I was asked if everything was okay by a manager I think and I said it was okay. She said just okay and I said yep.... I didn't want to cause a problem for stuff that should have been checked before the dinners came to the table. I have liked Buzzards for many years so I hope this was a one off.

The customer then badgered Jack and swore at him but Jack did well to calm the situation and continue helping other customers at the busy bar.

The BEST one I've ever had. I will be begging the bartenders to teach me their ways before they close their doors. This is our top choice in town to celebrate accomplishments and achievements. The tavern and patio offer a more casual ambiance, while the restaurant itself is chic and has an element of more formality. The staff is always ALWAYS incredible and thoughtful. The food is always on point, interesting, and flavorful. This place will be well-missed come March, but I know I will be back here plenty in the mean time to get my fill and and support this staff before then.

The Waterfront is truly a very special restaurant. We were in the area and were so in love with how…read morebeautiful it was along the Mississippi River walking path that we dropped by here for an early dinner. We were so fortunate that they were able to seat us on the outdoor patio facing the water. This restaurant isn't just great for the views--the food and drinks here were phenomenal as well. Our appetizers of beer-battered cheese curds and mussels were so flavorful and hit the spot. We also loved our fish tacos and linguini with scallops (I absolutely loved the crushed red pepper that came with it too!). Our food all paired nicely with their extensive cocktail/drinks menu, which included many different breweries and distilleries. This is one of those restaurants you'll remember visiting forever--definitely come visit if you can!

A Chromatic Feast: The Warm Embrace of Sagra in La Crosse…read more To dine at Sagra in La Crosse, Wisconsin, is to be reminded that genuine culinary warmth can be found far from the traditional epicenters of Italian gastronomy. Guided by an exceptionally attentive and gracious staff, the experience unfolds with a well-paced rhythm that immediately puts the diner at ease. It is an establishment that clearly understands the intersection of great service and great food. The meal begins with a study in subtle elevation: olives presented with a gentle, deliberate warming. It is a small but vital touch that awakens their natural oils and briny depth, setting a welcoming tone for the table. The meatballs follow suit, boasting a robust, comforting heft. They are deeply hearty and undeniably tasty, anchored by a rustic authenticity that demands a proper piece of bread to chase the remaining sauce. However, the quiet star of the evening was a sweet potato dish that essentially stole the stage. It was a vibrant, chromatic triumph--an absolute masterclass in both visual palette and culinary palate. The kitchen managed to coax an astonishing spectrum of colorful flavors from the root vegetable, elevating a humble ingredient into something genuinely amazing. "Life is a combination of magic and pasta." -- Federico Fellini The pasta course, often the crucible by which an Italian kitchen is judged, was a remarkably pleasant affair. While it may not have possessed the sheer, surprising theater of the sweet potatoes, it remained a fundamentally nice, deeply satisfying plate of food that grounded the meal in tradition. Ultimately, Sagra delivers an unequivocally great dining experience. It is a restaurant that balances hearty comfort with vibrant execution, proving that a well-crafted Italian menu in the heart of Wisconsin is a journey well worth taking.

Dinner was really good overall and good wine list and service. Soups and salad all came out with the meals and the salad is massive! Breakfast service was a bit uneven, but food came out fast and was very good. Love that they have reasonably priced breakfast options. I got the Dynamite Chicken Sandwich. It was good, but I expected more of a blast of flavor. My wife got the Cranberry Pork chop and said it was amazing! Great Brussels Sprouts on the side. Her side salad was huge and very fresh. My daughter got the Bourbon Salmon and loved it as well. Her side was Wild Rice Soup that was also amazing. For breakfast my wife and I both got 2 eggs and toast. They were very good. They do drown the toast in butter. So be ready for that! Overall we had good experiences and would gladly go back.
