It appeared that the soup offering changed each day, during our visit it was a very thick clam chowder. A variety of salad dressings included one I had never heard of, bacon dressing. It was in a similar container to the soup and looked like pickled cabbage but it was actually sweet. We had a great table that over looked the river.

Waitress was nice and checked in on our meal after it was delivered. Food: THAT REUBEN SANDWICH OMG. I will be back just for that. The tater tots were super crispy and ask for the jalapeno ranch dipping sauce, you won't regret it. Unfortunately the other person I dined with got the prime beef (prime rib? not sure) sandwich. The meat was tender but had no flavor. There was a ton of fat on it that was inedible so they ended up having to dissect their sandwich and eat it with a fork and knife and cut off all the inedible bits. Drinks: Good old fashioneds here. Can't wait to come back! Prices were reasonable.

The food was mediocre my burger was over cooked when I asked for medium and my husband asked for rare and he got well done also the burgers had no flavor even with ketchup mustard ect nothing could bring out the flavor it's tasted like boiled meat. The fries were obviously frozen crinkle fries.

My side of veggies were fresh but sadly a bit too crispy and black for my liking. My dad's special bacon wrapped venison tenderloin dish was to die for - so unique and a melt in your mouth experience. He said the bacon was alright. Our server Andrew was really helpful. He assured me of what was gluten-free since it isn't marked on the menu. And he taught us about how the venison is cooked. Just a really good experience overall. The place is dark inside so with the fireplace it really screams cozy for a winter destination. There is outside seating though too which is great for summer time. I would definitely return!

So I had high hopes for this place to be a true supper club but to be honest it's not. I should…read morehave known by the fact it wasn't swarming with people by 5:30 that it wasn't going to meet our expectations. Sure you can enjoy a drink at the bar before dinner but that's about where the supper club experience ends. Take a look at the online menu before visiting because the prices are crazy. I think scallops and a small steak were in the $75+ range. The staff was friendly and attentive but unfortunately it didn't make up for this not being a traditional Wisconsin supper club experience. Where's the salad bar?? We both had the Haddock special that was $23 a plate. The fish was watery beneath the breading, no thanks. My salad and the rolls were quite nice. We both agreed we won't be coming again as there are much better places in the area for fish.

I went back and forth before settling on a three star review; however, the kicker was three out of…read morefour dinners being disappointing. I had seen positive things about this restaurant on Facebook, going in my expectations were high. The end result was expectations not being met. I phoned ahead and was able to make a reservation. When my group pulled into the parking lot at 5PM, it wasn't full. This is generally not a good sign for a Saturday night. When we entered, it looked old school (big bar, televisions and a pool table). I generally see this as a positive indicator. The drinks we received were well made and the bartender was a nice guy. He gave us menus and we were waited on in the bar area. Both waitresses we were served by were very neutral in having us as guests. No extra chit chat. After ordering, we were directed to our table and were told we could go to the salad bar. I was looking forward to the salad bar as other social media raved about it. It was nice and all the items were fresh; however, it wasn't very big. The soup, available on the salad bar, was very good. The homemade dinner rolls were also good. The main meal is where things went backwards. One dining partner had a scallops and ribeye combo. When it was delivered to the table, the scallops looked pathetically small and the steak looked paper thin. Unfortunately, my impression of it being bad was what my dining partner experienced. They described the scallops of having a fish stick taste. They were disappointed in the meal. Another dining partner had the beef tip special. It was well prepared and was quite a large portion. It was an enjoyable meal. As luck would have it, myself and another dining partner both ordered the Triple O ribeye, a 16 oz cut covered with mushrooms, onions and peppers. We each ordered the garlic mashed potatoes. When it was delivered to our table it looked good. Sadly, while tasting good the potatoes weren't very warm. Having to move the topping to find the steak, I found my first piece a little difficult to cut, but prepared to order. After a few bites and after the final waitress appearance, I told my dining partner that I did not think my steak was a ribeye. They said they were thinking the same thing. Although generous in size, it appeared to be sirloin steak and while well-prepared, lacking flavor. Having eaten a good chunk, I decided not to make an issue but found the steak disappointing. If you look at my other reviews, I think you find them to be pretty generous. After contemplating this for a couple of days, I'd say people may want to try another restaurant when looking for a quality supper club experience.

My husband and I are on a mission this summer, searching for the best Friday Fish Fry near us…read more After 10 Friday meals, Cattails is leading the way. The place is newer and very comfortable with a great bar, if you need to wait a bit for your table. We waited only 10 minutes and we did not mind. At all. A cut WAY above the rest are the Classic Old Fashioneds, served the way they should be -- heavy on your choice of bourbon and very light on the soda. (Definitely NOT Wisconsin Style.) I had a smoked Old Fashioned that was one of the best I've ever had! But the meal got better! A salad bar is not a requirement for a fish fry, but it sure goes a long way. Fresh, tasty, and a great way to start the meal. We both ordered the perch. I had a baked potato side and he had the fries. Best perch we've had -- light on breading, hot and not oily at all. Service was excellent and we decided to have a second Old Fashioned back in the bar for dessert. We'll be back!

We had a group of 4 for Friday, we had tenderloin, ribs, shrimp and perch, all were excellent,…read moregreat potato bar, salad bar and great soup, then to top it off our waitress had made a dessert to die for, sliced pears in a spice cake with a salted caramel drizzle. You can't get that every where. That's why we love this place, the staff and owners are so friendly, a great hometown feel. Also they make great muddled old fashions and if you want something different try a smoked old fashion. You go to Cattails once I know your going go back.

Where to start?! Well, the food was great, and the drinks were great, and the service was great,…read moreso... not much else to say! I'm just kidding, I always have more to say. ;) But, in fairness, it's a great little spot that's kind of tucked away about a block and a half off the main strip (College Blvd or whatever it's called). But, it's a hidden gem worth searching for! We were made aware of this place thanks to the kind woman working at our hotel. We were in town for a game at Lambeau, and we heard that there was a shuttle from Rookie's to the field, which we definitely wanted to make use of! (That's a whole other review, but let's just say, it was an experience I'll never forget, and one I would repeat in a heartbeat!) The crowd here was clearly Packers fans. But, in their defense, they didn't make us opposing team fans feel threatened or not welcomed. Quite the opposite! Once they realized we were going to be respectful of their place and their folks, they welcomed us! The food really is good, especially for the money. It's one of those rare inexpensive places left in this country, where a pretzel appetizer easily feeds a family of four! LOL! I wish there weren't just two of us, because we also ordered boneless wings and cheese curds! Everything was hot and fresh, and it all tasted great. The drinks were large, inexpensive, and cold. No complaints at all. The service was also really wonderful, with friendly staff and very efficient servers. Like I said, nobody gave us a lot of grief for being from out of town. But, we could tell right away, this was a "local spot" and for a very good reason. Locals and regulars definitely make up the customer base, but they keep coming back for all the other reasons provided: good food, good drinks, and very reasonable prices. Example: I offered to buy a beverage for a very nice person who was incredibly helpful to us, specifically in arranging our spots on the shuttle bus. She was drinking a rail Old Fashioned. You know what that cost me? $3.50. That's not a South Park reference. That was what I paid for a rail cocktail! Anyway... if I'm ever in Appleton again, I'm stopping by. This really is a diamond in the rough, and one well worth your time in searching for.
