We were driving from Des Moines to Minneapolis and decided to hop off the beaten path to Lake Mills. A great little town! We each had a side salad with thousand island dressing. Typical diner-style salad of romaine lettuce, cheese, tomatoes, onions. Fine, but nothing to write home about. Then we split the burger and fires. We went with the burger on a pretzel bun (I always think they will be better than a regular bun, but should just get the regular. Nothing wrong with this one--nice and fresh, just never what I think they will be.). Anyway, the burger was fantastic and the fries were crispy, not greasy, and a generous portion. The menu was quite diverse and we will make this trip again to check out more options. It's worth a stop just to be in the old bank building and to take a walk down Main Street!

My husband and I have been getting fish on Friday nights for years. We love the fish and soup…read morespecial. Last night we got the fish and it was terrible!! The batter was so hard I couldn't even eat one piece, so I broke the other piece in half and scooped some fish out. The baked potato was ok but felt old and hard on the bottom. The soup wasn't as good as it could have been, but good. We were so disappionted. I looked to see if they got new owners or maybe a new cook. We will not be ordering fish on Friday again.

We loved the curds, which were hot and fresh with a great coating. We had two different flatbreads for our mains: bruschetta for me and hot honey for my husband. They were larger than I expected, both quite tasty.

We started with Buffalo wings. Requested extra crispy. All wings and no drums. Did not disappoint. For entrees I went beef and husband went pork. The meat was undercooked for my taste so I would not order this dish again. Husband gave the pork a good review. We both enjoyed the seasonal veggie side. The hasbrown-like potato side I tried was very well done. We hope this becomes a place we can return to year after year when we visit the Clear Lake area.

Local here who visited for the first time for a birthday dinner. This place was okay, not great…read more Catarino was not very attentive, even though the place had 2 other tables when we arrived. We were having to flag them down for requests. The Hawaiian Mac n Cheese was described as both "Mac n Cheese with Carrots" and 'Mac and Cheese with Pineapple" by two different staff... it was macaroni salad. We asked for a pasta spoon and some Ketchup and Catarino sighed loudly and seemed inconvenienced or annoyed by the request. The Sweet Potato Fries had cinnamon and sugar on them, which sweet + sweet = saccharine, so they were not a side dish as much as they should have been a dessert. We gave feedback to Catarino about our meal, but they argued with us instead of just accepting the feedback. We left a 30% tip on a sizable tab despite the meal and service... We won't be back.

Our table's orders included: *) the trashcan nachos (superb!) *) the club sandwich (tasty, toothsome, and better than expected) *) the Cuban sandwich (gloriously drippy and delightful) *) the bacon and blue burger (topped with a fried egg and bacon jam!) *) the wedge salad (nice and crunchy and fresh, although the tomato jam was a tad sweet for me) ... and an off menu shrimp cocktail that was weirdly excellent. The plump, good sized shrimp arrived warm and spicy without cocktail sauce or mayo. Not standard, but very tasty! We will definitely be back.
