Loved the fry bread taco - so delicious! And the fried mushrooms were the perfect snack for the table. And there were so many!

Two words: Whitefish livers…read more Where have these been all of my life? Granted, I'm a liver eater. Chopped chicken liver is one of my all time favorite things. Duck liver, goose liver, calves liver, cod liver, monkfish liver, sign me up. But somehow whitefish livers have evaded me. These were delicious! I also had what might have been the most midwestern meal ever. Cheese curds with ranch dressing, a plate of whitefish livers, and a sweet brandy old fashioned to wash it all down. On the specialty drinks menu I couldn't resist the Berens Brandy Old Fashioned. I mean, I have been a fan of Charlie Berens for a few years but I didn't realize he had his own brandy for the definitive cocktail of Wisconsin. It was delicious, but it also turned out to be $12. For my second round I just got a regular brandy old fashioned which was also quite good, but weighed in at five bucks. Let the buyer beware. Which is ultimately why Pier Plaza fell short of the fifth star. The prices feel a bit high for what it is. Granted, it's right by the water, in a remote part of the state, and thrives on tourists. And that's fine. I have no regrets and would absolutely recommend folks who might be passing through to stop in for a very Wisconsin meal. Portions are large, so plan accordingly.

The "Pierly Pasta" with it cajuned up was awesome (breadstick included). I noticed they had a horseradish ranch... yeah I dipped the chicken in it and even threw some on the pasta. Game changer!

Beautiful website that does not reflect either the ambiance or the meal. My husband enjoyed his old fashioneds, but the food was not good at all. Seemed to be previously frozen, lacked flavor, and just all around not thoughtful. They missed a good opportunity to leverage local items like wild rice and other local seasonal produce. Stop in for drinks and have your meal elsewhere!

Madeline Island is already quaint and intimate yet almost every patron makes small talk in a nice way. We met a cute poodle named Tommy on the patio and the owner allowed me to feed him some of my fabulous pork apple meal. There is a wide variety of food and cocktails. My husband and I split the Caesar salad with chicken (the chicken was not that great so I recommend omitting that) and then he had the pot pie and I had the apple pork with potatoes. Everything was flavored well and felt comforting. For dessert, we split the apple pie. The staff even warmed it up for us. Thank you!!

Nothing fancy here, just a right amount of grease diner and friendly service. A few cop cars here too, so at least you know they support cops or at least aren't dealing drugs out the back. Enjoy!

I am on a restricted diet. My wife liked hers, and I really enjoyed mine. The second time we went I had the same, and my wife had the 2x2x2. Mine was good. My wife's was very large. The pancakes were very large, and the sausage was good. The restaurant was a typical small town ole-school eatery. Our servers were great, and Being this was a very small town, I think it was very good. We would definitely eat here again, if we are ever through this part again.

In the 20 minutes we spent waiting to be at least greeted, he had time to kiki with other tables and give a performance of a lifetime pretending to be mad at another waiter for not taking our order.

When we chose to go elsewhere, he immediately stormed off to complain about us to other staff. No wonder they are hiring.
