It took awhile for our food, but wow..it was worth it. We started with the pickle fries. Spicy and crunchy with a fantastic dipping sauce. Then, I had the firecracker shrimp wrap with jalapeno slaw. Perfect Asian spice and the slaw addrd great crunch with just enough heat. The handcut chips were very good Hubby had the firecraker shrimp, too, and loved it. We're looking forward to trying their other menu items.

Ahhmazing. First off, this place is just cool. It's a clean, cozy and welcoming environment with…read morefriendly service. It's a small little bar type place, but they have a cook on so your bartender isn't trying to juggle both jobs and the food is fast and delicious. I had the western burger and it was 5 star. Easily one of the best burgers I've ever had. I had it with the homemade chips which were also delicious, but they offer many sides. The bbq sauce on my burger was insanely delicious and I'm picky about my sauce. My coworkers each had different burgers and they looked equally delicious and they raved about them. I live in Green Bay, but I will make the trip to Shawano regularly just to visit this place!

They have a gigantic one (see my picture) I think it's like 1.8 lbs of meat!! I didn't order that, but a couple of guys sitting by us did. (They split it) It was crazy big, but actually looked cooked well and everything on it looked fresh and tasty. They said it was good. I did however, order a (regular) sized "build your own" burger and a side of onion rings. I liked my burger a lot. Definitely worth coming back for. Onion rings were also pretty good. My wife ordered the fish and chips basket. This meal was very average. Pretty much, your basic frozen battered fish, deep fried and served with okay French Fries. Burger was great, fish basket not so much. Would recommend stopping in for drinks and a burger. Skip the fish. (But maybe they serve different fish for their Friday Fish Fry)

Got there around 6:30 on a Thursday night, pretty crowded but not too bad. Was here a few weeks ago…read morefor breakfast and no issues. However last night the waitress took our order, berry salad and a quesadilla, we waited 40 minutes and finally received our food. Berry salad had no blueberries and maybe 3 strawberries, plus the lettuce was cut into large chunks. Quesadilla had maybe filling for 2/3 and the rest was just tortilla. No apologies from the staff over the wait, the manager came and spoke to customers behind us who also waited that long, they didn't get shrimp on their seafood platter. The manager never came to our table. Terribly disappointed for a new restaurant in Shawano that we hope will succeed, never had an issue with the restaurant that was there prior. Will not return.

My 95 year old mom and I arrived for a treat out after an appointment in town. The facility was…read moreclean and two families as well as another older couple were dining. We arrived 5:45ish on a Thursday afternoon. The greet staff and the waiter were friendly and helpful. He brought us our water just the way we like it - me a room temperature and he refilled it promptly at the right time. The Senior Menu was hard to see as I had forgotten my reading glasses and mom is nearly blind. We did ascertain that with our $20 we could each get an item from the Senior menu, which is normally enough for each of us. Mom took the roast beef with a side salad (nice and big) and mashed potatoes (full of air and a bit runny- two scoops). The roast beef was delicious and very tender. They didn't have french dressing and the portion was very small. She asked for extra gravy as no one serves enough gravy with their meals. There was plenty on her plate. The gravy was tasty. Not being a fan of roast beef and allergic to wheat and shellfish, I settled for the crispy fish, (I usually order grilled as I don't like crispy) , with a side order of green and yellow beans with garlic butter. The waiter assured me they'd be soft and done- not "chinese". I was only allowed one side. I asked for tartar for my fish and seeing the size serving asked for two more to stretch over the fish. The beans were NOT done and I had two tartar containers of unchewable strings from the beans. The flavor combination was really good. The fish was good but given the price overall, over priced. If I had scraped off the crunchy (again, no other option for me), I would have had very little to eat. It was just that serving size was a nice sample. Mom generally has enough left over when we go out to have lunch the next day. I had had a grilled onion all day and would have been content with a full meal such as I usually get when we do go out. Imagine our shock and dismay when the bill came and we were charged $1.00@ for the gravy, the second salad dressing, and each "extra" tartar sauce. Fortunately, I had an extra $5.00 bill on my person. I usually keep such to help mom with a tip when we go out. I gave the waiter the money for the bill and could do none other than let him keep the change for the tip. He deserved better as company policy is not his fault. He'd done good. We did speak with him directly about warning us that there was a one dollar charge for sauces as not everyone can see that in the menu. We also spoke with the shift manager about our unhappiness related to our meal and that we were leaving hungry. We had enjoyed the restaurant replaced by IHOP, and I have enjoyed IHOP in the past. We are glad we tried it, but seriously doubt that we'll be returning to this location. We are far better off to go to a restaurant down the street and use coupons to get $1.00 off a meal deal, although that gets us back to burger and fries or fish baskets. If you want pancakes, IHOP may be good but not on a limited budget and not for an evening meal. They need to have a grilled option for people not wanting crunchy food and when they say the vegetables are cooked done- they need to be cooked DONE.
