Stopped by Monk's Bar & Grill for a late lunch in the Dells and so glad we did!…read more Located right on Broadway in the heart of the Wisconsin Dells, Monk's serves up pub grub in a comfortable bar setting. When you walk in, you're immediately met with the bar. They do have additional seating but you have to make your way past the bar to find it. We decided to sit at the bar and were happy for the low key atmosphere while we enjoyed a cocktail and some lunch. For my cocktail, I ordered a Manhattan which was decently made. For my lunch, I got the bbq chicken wrap, which was great. I got fries on the side which were also crispy and delicious. The kitchen is adjacent to and can be seen from our perch at the bar, which was nice to see our food being prepared. All in all, this is a great casual spot for a beverage and a bite on any trip to the Dells. Get to it!

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

Stopped in for dinner on Friday night and couldn't believe how little business was in there; almost…read moredecided to go elsewhere but stayed to give it a shot. Overall our experience was good; the food was fresh and cooked perfectly with good flavor. My daughter got the oreo shake, which is a standard size but cost $14, which I thought was a bit steep. The shake itself was good but the 'whipped' topping was disguising; we had to take it off. Our server didn't seem very happy to be working but he was pleasant enough. One complaint is that I ordered chips with my meal but received fries instead. Overall we enjoyed our meal and would eat here again.

The Mac and cheese comes in several sizes. This is the regular size. They also have a smaller size and a larger size. There was plenty of open seating. Each table had a caddy with condiments. The Mac and cheese is delicious! The bread is a little hard. But the flavors are great. Lots of toppings. It was well worth the price especially considering the area is known to be touristy.

I never thought I'd be raving about mac and cheese, but this was hands down the best I've ever had. We ordered the Jalapeño Mac, and the owner suggested adding the Chipotle Chicken. That recommendation absolutely made the dish! It had the perfect balance of creamy, cheesy, smoky, and spicy flavors. The cheese tasted incredibly fresh, and you can truly appreciate why Wisconsin is famous for its cheese. We also tried one of their melts, which was just as delicious--crispy, buttery, loaded with flavor, and packed with that same amazing fresh cheese. Everything was so good that we came back the very next day before leaving Wisconsin Dells because we couldn't stop thinking about it! If you're in the area, do yourself a favor and don't miss this place. Fantastic food, great recommendations, and an experience we'll definitely remember.

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!

My best friend and I are up here for a spontaneous spring break trip. She's celliac, so it's important for us to find restaurants that take gluten allergies seriously and offer alternative options. Right off the bat when we asked about gluten buns, the staff were willing to ask questions about the proposed allergy and helped us find items on the menu to avoid cross contamination as much as possible. They even let my friend substitute the fries in the monkey fries for tater tots so that she could still enjoy the item. Our burgers were so juicy and great too.
