    Grilled cheese
    Iza S.

    Just had the best grilled cheese of my life. Chef asked me personally what cheese I wanted. Got to watch him make it with care. Vibes up. Thank you chef.

    On vacation with my sister and she is the only person who will go bowling with me. This place is very reasonable has a full bar and food if you are hungry while bowling strikes. We played several games and had some pretty good drinks.

    Great spot to spend an afternoon relaxing with a drink, socializing with friends, and working. The prices are affordable, especially for bowling, and it's never been too crowded when I've visited. The service is friendly and quick.

    Came here to break up the constant waterpark visits. The family had a good time as the bowling alley is in nice condition. Good fun at a cheap price as this place is in the splash pass for Wisconsin dells. Well worth the buy 3 games and get 3 free for a friend.

    Very quaint bowling alley. 12 lanes. Only one has bumpers. Guy at front desk was fairly unfriendly looking and acting. I asked him a question and he never responded... just walked away. Maybe he was having a bad day #socialbuzzme

    While it wasn't the best burger I've ever had, it was definitely much better than some of the over-hyped places in the Dells.

Just be ready to squeeze in The decor is the first thing you notice. The walls and ceiling are practically plastered with local apparel, and for whatever reason, there's a heavy monkey theme going on with all the gear. It gives the place a great, unpretentious, classic Wisconsin dive bar vibe. The menu keeps it simple: standard, no-nonsense bar food. We're talking burgers, baskets, and fried sides. Service was surprisingly snappy given that it was shoulder-to-shoulder at the bar. If you want a quiet, intimate dinner, this isn't it. But if you want cold drinks, killer curds, and a vibrant crowd, it's easily a solid four-star stop on the strip. I'd definitely grab a beer here again. the burgers claimed that they were world famous but topping your burgers is a little strange, they charge 25 cents for tomatoes and lettuce

The drinks however fell short. My hubby got an old fashioned and we'll see the photo of the pink concoction he got that tasted like cinnamon. Maybe it's a regional thing but he's an avid old fashioned drinker and well it was like nothing we've had before. We then ordered monk-aritas to take the place and those tasted like pure sweet and sour. They had a good looking beer list so probably should have went that way. Food was great though- no complaints there.

    A Master Class in How to Lose Regular Customers…read more We've eaten here four times. Until now it was always fine -- not great, not terrible -- but usually saved by really good servers. This last visit? Not so much. Our server vanished almost immediately (except for one heroic soda refill). Meals were dropped by a runner and we were never checked on again -- despite the restaurant being nearly empty on a frigid Friday with more staff than customers, we still couldn't seem to get helped. I eventually had to go find the manager. In a place this slow, he could have easily gone table to table. He did not. My friend's chicken sandwich was inedible: gnarly, tendon-heavy, and made incorrectly after requesting almost everything removed (none of it was removed). My institutional burger and fries were a snore. They offered to remake my friend's meal to go. Out came... just a burger. No fries. No sides. Just vibes. Finding the manager on the way out and bringing up our issues: multiple disappearances, an attempted discount after she'd already paid cash, and finally a handful of dollar bills shoved into her hand with "I took care of it." He never really asked to resolve my complaints but at least I had something to eat. Final thoughts: * Food: increasingly mediocre * Service: vanished * Management: improvisational * Fries: missing in action The only reason we kept coming back was good servers. This time we had neither. We won't be returning.

I have been here at least 8 times with a super senior who uses a cane and has a hearing impairment and several other times with the super senior and other friends or relatives. We usually come on a weekday in the afternoon or early evening when it is not very busy. The staff have always been kind and patient with taking our order and regularly checking on us. I like that the booth area on the main level is uncluttered and does not require steps to access. This makes getting to the booth easier for those with any mobility challenges and it makes it a bit quieter and easier to hear for those with hearing challenges. They have a decent size menu plus great daily specials. When we bring friends or family who can help us eat an appetizer, we always order the cheese curds which taste fresh, hot and not oily. If we don't find a Daily Special that suits us, we usually go for their Fish and Chips, Friday Fish Fry, or Mushroom Burger. They have a wide variety of sides to choose from but our typical go-to sides are the Loaded Mashed Potatoes or Chef's Vegetables. We have enjoyed everything we ordered there.

A group of six of us walked in, sat ourself, and I asked a bartender if the kitchen was open. There were two guys behind the bar. They looked at each other and gave a nod. The younger guy said yes, but we are out of the fish fry. No problem for us. We were served by the younger guy and he was friendly, attentive, and didn't treat us as second class as most of our group took water while I had a couple beers. It was pretty quiet when we arrived. We tried a couple apps, and a few different burgers and fried shrimp. Having read about the steak burger, we had high expectations but it fell a bit flat. Others mentioned a sauce, but there wasn't any in ours. The burger with bacon and jalapeño was a banger though! Onion rings and fries were excellent. The curds were good, but I've had better. When it came time to close the check, our server met me as I jumped off my stool. I don't know his name, but gave him a 25% tip. Wish he worked at my place! For the Dells, the price is very reasonable in my opinion. As we were leaving things were lighting up, and getting loud. I got the impression the kitchen was closing even though they say they are open late as the older guy was grumbling about only having two people working. As an owner of a cocktail bar I get that things happen, but I don't like my employees getting upset about it. The younger guy kept his cool - even if he was hoping for more. I do plan to go back for another service and ask about the sauce on the steak burger. Felt weird to talk about it before getting it the way I assume they serve it. Our son is staying for grad school so we have an excuse to try again!

    It's become a tradition for our family to go to Famous Dave's on our first night at Wisconsin…read moreDells. Somehow we ended up at the downtown one instead of our usual one. There are two Famous Dave's in town and tis is not the one with a big parking lot. But we were still able to park nearby, and they had plenty of room inside the restaurant to accommodate our group of 14. Being a large group, we were surprised they were able to seat us right away. Downside: the spot they put us in was pretty tight, but once we were sitting the only reason that mattered was that the server couldn't reach half our table. There was a lot of passing drinks and dishes across the table to those on the end. We keep coming to Famous Dave's because the food is delicious. Lots of tasty barbecue to choose from, and we like the variety of table sauces. There are usually more sauces on the table than there were this time. Our end of the table only had two of the sauces (they'd pushed a few tables together for us), and the other end had three, so...more passing things down the table. But if we didn't already know to look for them, or if we'd been a smaller group at a two-sauce table, we would have missed out. Some of us ordered the All-American BBQ Feast. It had a good variety of meats, plus cornbread muffins and fries. So, so many fries. Like, way more fries than we needed. I would gladly have given up most of that pile of fries for one more slice of brisket (which was a little light). But still, that food is delicious, so I guess we've gotta keep coming. Some of the kids in our group ordered kids meals--no complaints about the chicken tenders. And the kids also get pig ear hats, with activities on the back, to keep them busy while waiting for food to arrive.

The pork is just ok. It also comes with garlic toast, corn bread, potatoes wedge, coleslaw, corn, and BBQ beans. Food is a lot but not as good as the one in Tennessee. Service is average. Seat is good. The decoration is more like the pit BBQ.
