Our first time to Hilltop Retreat. We were visiting the area and a friend suggested the…read morerestaurant. They are open on Friday and Saturday night and Sunday morning. It was Saturday evening and the hostess who greeted us was very friendly. The restaurant was busy and she found us a table on the outside enclosed space. We waited a few minutes and a server greeted us and said they were very busy so she would take our drink orders before our regular server would become available. We waited a little longer and our new server Melody brought the drinks and apologized for the wait. Melody was very nice and professional. She checked on us throughout the evening. I ordered the chicken Parmesan. My husband ordered coconut shrimp with a baked potato and our friend ordered the walleye. We each ordered the cabbage soup with the dinner. The chicken parm was delivered on a huge plate of pasta with red sauce. Unfortunately neither was flavorful and there was just way too much pasta. The chicken had a small amount of white sauce on top. The red sauce was not seasoned at all. My husband said the coconut shrimp was fine. The baked potato arrived after he finished the shrimp so that was disappointing. Our friend said the walleye was okay. The cabbage soup was good but needed seasoning. While the staff is friendly and attentive, the food is just not great, at least the dishes we ordered.

Made reservations after my boss suggested they were necessary (tiny town, lack of choices)…read more Showed up and our "reserved" table was where the kitchen and bar met; very loud and hectic. LOTS of empty tables when we arrived at 4:45 p.m., but we still got sat in an undesirable area. App of cheese curds. Meals were Hilltop Melt, country style pork ribs and king prime rib. The cheapest meal was happiest with their food: Hilltop Melt with Sweet Potato fries. My mother found that the pork ribs were dry and bland (and I did try them and they were indeed bland and the only flavor came from the BBQ sauce). Don't brag that your boneless, country style pork ribs are cooked for 18 hours, when the result is dry and bland. My king prime rib was served later so the hashbrowns could cook, according to the waitress, yet the hashbrowns that my mom and I both had were okay on the outer edges, but not warm/cooked on the inside. The prime rib had decent flavor, but it was tough and required a lot of sawing through with a steak knife. The best part of the visit was our waitress Hannah; food was mediocre.

Wednesday in Wisconsin means chicken wings, and three of us went with the traditional wings and we all agreed that they had wonderful flavor and were cooked just right; the french fries that came with the meal were nice and crispy. I would definitely recommend a trip to the soup and salad bar (I've had it in the past and they have a wide variety of options, and everything is fresh). The only thing that keeps this place from being 5 stars is that the dining room and tables/seating could use an update.

This was my first fish fry and I have thought about it countless times since. I may be biased…read morebecause it's the only fish fry I've ever been to or experienced but I'm already thinking about coming back. We did have to wait about an hour. But we got delicious cocktails while we waited. A lot of other families who were waiting were smart and brought games with them. It was so worth the wait. Every single food item was delicious. The staff was friendly. The atmosphere was electric and so community oriented. Like I said, I can't wait to go back!

We've been going…read morefor over 20 years and we were happy to wait 2 hours, but last night we learned how a new owner can take a rare gem and run it to the ground. 1.We were seated and ordered drinks & fish. They said they were out of broiled fish. My daughter ordered spaghetti and then they came back and said they were out. We jokingly Asked who do we have to fight for the last spaghetti and the owner turned around and said me and I'm not making anymore. I couldn't believe his rudeness. A simple I'm So Sorry we are out would have been acceptable. 2.Our drinks never came then the fish basket came without our drinks or the cole slaw or fry bread that is always served as an appetizer. 3. We asked a 2nd time for drinks and the alcohol arrived but not the other drinks. I saw the waitress just standing talking to other employees so I went to the bar and got our own drinks 4. Baked potatoes never came. 5. The fish used to be big and flaky and so delicious. This time it was small, overcooked and 1 per person. We asked for more and they brought some bite sized pieces back with more chicken because they ran out BUT then we saw them deliver fish to a table of employees. 6. Our bill came with the spaghetti still on it 7. The waitress never checked on us and the owner scowled at us everytime he walked by. 8. Last straw, we were leaving and my daughter used the restroom to find no toilet paper and then no soap!!! We are heartbroken! She We will never be back nor recommend it like we have for 20 years.

Several seating options from sitting at the large bar, high tops, low tops and a community high top bar. They have a game area with a pool table and a pull tab machine. As far as the food, we ordered the fried pickle spears which are crispy and tasty. The chicken wrap is delicious with some chipotle mayo. My husband said it is one of the best wraps he has eaten. The Rueben was also delicious. The flavor was right on. The burger is a 1/3 pound burger so it is thin like a thawed out frozen patty and not very juicy. It wasn't bad, just not what I would expect from a place like this. I wouldn't order this again. Fries and tots were hot, crispy and flavorful. Now, the staff has been very friendly both times we stopped in. My two cents, two people behind the bar plus the cook is not enough. We noticed they were running around getting orders mixed up, total confusion, people waiting in their checks for a while. They need more staff to help with a busy bar. We liked 7 Brothers and will stop in again.

Now it is a bar; but there is plenty of seating away from the bar. And plenty of room to accommodate families of any size. Great place to meet up for apps or a meal and hang out. The food is great. Always fresh, hot and great tasting. The Friday Fish Fry is the best in area (in my opinion!). Threw different order size options. And it comes with soup and salad bar. Not a big salad bar, but it's fresh and quality ingredients. Soups have always been good too. You really should check this place out!!!! On a Friday if you can!
