Came here for dinner and unfortunately left pretty underwhelmed overall…read more The restaurant itself was clean, and service initially started off fine. When we first arrived, the restaurant was not busy. Only a couple other tables occupied, so expectations were fairly high for a smooth experience. Unfortunately, things quickly went downhill. The food took quite a while to come out despite how slow it was. When it finally did, it was first delivered to the wrong table before eventually making its way to us. The food runner then randomly grabbed a ranch from our table and brought it to another table. He seemed potentially new, but overall the service felt very disorganized and clueless, especially considering the restaurant wasn't busy. We ordered the cheese curds to start, and they were disappointing. The breading was mushy and extremely greasy, and the cheese itself tasted low quality rather than the fresh curds you'd expect at a Wisconsin pub. We also ordered several wing flavors since they were on special: garlic parm, buffalo, bourbon BBQ, and lemon pepper. One issue right away was the lack of flavor variety overall on the menu. The wings themselves were inconsistent. Sizes varied dramatically, which clearly affected the cook quality. Some were fried so hard they were like chewing leather, while others had soggy, undercooked skin. Flavor wise the buffalo were almost completely flavorless. The lemon pepper was extremely mild. The garlic parm was probably the best of the group, though still just average. The bourbon BBQ was rough. The sauce tasted like an overly sweet, overly salty cheap jarred glaze rather than an actual house-made BBQ sauce. My wife ordered the Mary Mac burger without a bun and was told extra lettuce leaves could be substituted to make it a lettuce wrap. Instead, it came out with just shredded lettuce. The burger itself was overcooked and lacking flavor. The fries were decent enough, but nothing memorable. Overall, this felt like a place with potential that just missed the mark on both execution and consistency during our visit.

Hubby is always up for a good burger, so we stopped here on our way out of town on a Wednesday…read morenight. Signage outside indicated that they have fish fry on Wednesday night so that was a plus for me. He had a water street melt with chips and fried cheese sticks. He asked for his burger to be cooked medium. The menu indicated his burger had onion spread on it. His burger was not cooked medium but well done. The onion spread was a "sauce overload" and not a pleasant addition to the melt. The cheese sticks were wrapped in a won ton wrap and deep fried. They were served with a marinara. The cheese sticks could have used some type of seasoning to give them flavor. Very bland. I had the fish fry special of fried perch. Mild fishy flavor and definitely frozen. Thin crumb breading that had some type of seasoning. I choose fries, coleslaw, and rye toast. The fries and toast were the best parts. I wanted tartar sauce for my fish but it was so sweet that it wasn't good with the fish. Service was fine. She needed to leave before us and asked if we wanted to close our ticket. We didn't plan on staying as we're traveling so we closed it out. Location was easy to find. Bar area was clean.

On one of our visits the guy behind the bar was so loud and basically stood back there and drank lite the whole time. Then a local (I'm assuming) said something to the bartender and he shouted back "F**k you old man"! I asked someone at the bar does the owner know that his employee uses that kind of language? Much to my surprise he told me that the bartender is the owner! Are you kidding me? If you are visiting from out of town or new to town there are a lot better places to go that they don't use that kind of language. Not that I'm a prude or anything because I've used that language...I guess it's more shocking to hear it when you have people in your bar you've never seen. I was going to give it one star but decided I'd give it two because we just moved here and some friends of mine were in town and I thought I'd give them a second chance. We were met by a very nice bartender named Cassie. She was attentive and probably knew as an EMPLOYEE not to talk that way. Anytime someone came in she greeted them. The kicker here? The "owner" was sitting on the other side of the bar playing dice and still using that language and of course drinking miller lite. We'll go when she is working and/or their daytime bartender Ray. He knows a lot about sports and had a great conversation with my husband.

Got the fish platter which had 4 pieces of fish and one tiny plastic cup of tartar sauce. Asked for extra tartar and we were charged $1 for it. Asked for an extra pop and we were charged for it. Put everything in a credit card and we were charged 3%. These up charges are why people don't tip or just stop going out. We will never be back again. Also, the Bloody Mary was not very good today. She didn't listen to the way I wanted her to make it.

I don't come here for looking for the best meal of my life, but it's great for an app situation. The wait staff was very nice and personable. Our waiter went missing at times, but someone would always come help.

My first visit was a five star experience, you can review those details listed on my profile…read more That's why I decided to go back with my mom expecting the same thing. I even bragged to her about it because she vowed never to visit an IHOP after challenges she's had in the past. Unfortunately, my second visit was disappointing. To speed through my review you can find the good in 1, 4, & 5. The areas requiring improvement can be found in 2, 3, & 6. 1. Atmosphere The restaurant itself remains very clean and inviting. Applebee's and IHOP menu items are served so you get a vibe from both in the decor. TV's playing sports, bar, and pancakes! 2. The Food Unfortunately, there was no food to review. After placing our order, we waited a LONG TIME while multiple tables that were seated after us received their meals, finished eating, and paid their tabs. At one point, a large party of nine seated next to us in the "Applebees side had already completed their meal. After more than 20 minutes and no food, we had to leave as we had other things planned. 3. The Coffee The coffee itself is fine. It gets the job done, especially with the flavored creamers. However, we were unable to enjoy it right away because our waiter forgot to bring the creamers we requested. We waited about 20 minutes before asking the hostess to help, and she brought them for us right away. Only for the waiter to come back to take our food order and take credit for the creamers being delivered to us as if we didn't request them from the hostess. 4. Service Service was the issue during this visit. Our waiter was extremely slow, took several minutes just to bring drink orders, forgot our coffee creamers, and was absent from our table pretty much the entire visit. I had a little concern early on when a table that was there before us stopped him while he was taking our drink order to say they've been waiting and were ready to pay, but I brushed it off. I mean not the restaurant I just praised! 5. Hostess The hostess was great and friendly, responsive. She was more attentive than our waiter. She checked on us when she noticed we were still waiting with no plates, she helped with the creamers, and even looked into the status of our food when we asked. 6. As for our waiter, I'm hopeful he may have been in training, and I understand that new staff can be slower. All of this may be true BUT management should be monitoring tables to ensure service runs smoothly. If a manager checked on us at any point, this review may have been another five star and we wouldn't have left without ever receiving our meal. To answer the big question...will I be back? Yes! Everyone has off days, and since the place is new, it probably means new staff still getting the hang of things. I'll give them a little time to work out the kinks which is sad since it's reasonably priced and so close to home. I'd still say give them a try at least once. My first visit was great. Unfortunately, I can't say the same for the second.

Kudos to them, but management should help them out with additional staff on busy days. (We had a reservation for 10 people, they knew it was going to be busy).

Authentic local gem!!!…read more Let's be fair... One must rate Hartland's Phoenix against the back drop of what it is... An local bar and restaurant the likes of which are no longer in vogue for most people whom have forgotten the authenticity of a multi generational family run eatery. Nancy ( a spritely 85?) the owner, is heart and soul not this landmark and her soul runs deep through every nook and cranny of the place, every home cooked dish, and every relationship she cultivates with her patrons. First things first... To kitchen puts out one of the best fish fry I've had any where in Wisconsin... Hands down best perch and baked walleye. The fry comes with soup and salad bar... The whole experience is less like eating out and more like going to Nancy and family's house for dinner... Home, real, no flourish just an authentic Wisconsin pleasure. They have daily specials all week long... Call, no web site because Nancy not much of a web developer ;) Secondly, the bar is a BARgin! Say no more! Drinks for a party of 4 adults and 3 kids....under $20! Seriously! I can not recommend The Phoenix any more... Go in expecting the above and you'll fall in love... If your disappointed...
