    Recently went with some friends for music bingo on a Thursday night. Nice spot to meet up-lots of tables and huge menu. Service was great! Buffalo chicken wrap was ok. The chicken wasn't cut which was odd and hard to eat. Cheese on mushroom Swiss burger should have been melted, but was still good. Would go back and try other items and see some live music! Staff was very friendly.

    Sorry to say, the great start is beginning to run out of momentum. This is not a 1/2 lb mushroom and swiss burger.

    I've given this place multiple chances. Every time is worse than the last. Went tonight to watch the US soccer game and proceeded to watch the bartender say she was too busy to change the channel on the TV. "Do you see how busy we are?" So rude. They had a very limited menu due to lack of staff. We ordered a quesadilla, burger and wings and sat for over an hour. Cocktails were disgusting. They had two people helping with bingo instead of helping in the kitchen, which is what they really needed. I will not be back. The pic is the guac we got. Gross.

    Friendly staff. Nice crowd to hear live music. We didn't eat here- just met a large group. Bartenders were attentive and drinks flowed! Was so happy to hear a band- not often that we are able to enjoy live music.

    Who doesn't love a Friday night fish fry? Schmidty's Bar and Grill serves up one heck of a good fish fry. First of all this place has tons of seating and at 5:30 pm we were seated immediately (unusual on a Friday night at that time!). There are 2 dining areas. One is more quiet, family oriented, with tables and booths and air conditioning while the other side has high tops, long tables and a patio area with a wall of garage doors separating the inside from the patio. In the summer these garage doors and almost always open (no air conditioning on this side). The patio side also has live music on the weekends, pool tables and video games. So it is a much more lively side. It seems to be the gathering place for the after work crowd and where friends hang out. For starters we ordered New England clam chowder which was creamy and chock full of chunky potato pieces and clams. The clams were tender- not rubbery and a hint of sweetness. The only thing that would have made this chowder better would be to mix in some Carrots and celery but that's just my personal opinion. Our fish fry's were both excellent. The menu stated that the perch dinner came with 2 large pieces. In fact my husband actually received 3 large pieces. The breading was proportionate and did not overwhelm the fish- which was delicate and flaky. The beer batter was light and crispy just the way it should be. I ordered the Italian breaded cod and it was delicious. The breading has a mixture of Italian herbs which was a nice change from the usual beer batter yet the breading still provided a slight crunch. The French fries were perfect- they had a snap when you bit into them yet were satisfyingly soft and tender on the inside. Our waitress was excellent. Our food was brought to us piping hot so she was definitely on top of things and picking up her orders right away- nothing sat under the warming lights :) she was also very pleasant and professional and despite handling quite a few tables at once, she was attentive and quick with our drink reorders. I highly recommend Schmidty's -whether your looking for a nice,quiet, casual place for the family or a place to hang out and let loose with friends after a long week- Schmidty's has you covered.

    Seemed like a chill place. Had some good 80's-90's tunes on. Bartender was handing out free Pina Coladas for samplers. They got themselves a new frosty machine to make them. We all said YES!! They proceeded to play the Pina Colada song to set the mood. I am not in to Yoga, I am in to champagne. :P Seems like they specialize in barbecue food fare. I did not eat. I had a beer and sip of Pina (on the bike). Seems like a fun place with friendly service and a band stage. Outdoor seating. Car show days. Bike days. Activities to attract customers. Check out ol' Schimdty's and have some fun!

    Firstly, amazing atmosphere! The staff, and most importantly, the bartenders always provide great…read moreservice. Caden and Maddie are two of my favorite to wait on us! I am a hard critic when it comes to wings and this location has the best wings I have had in Wisconsin. The Jerk dry rub and Lucky 13 dry is absolutely incredible! Highly recommend! Great place to watch a game or hangout with friends and family. 5-stars is high as it gets but I could not find a reason to give less.

    If you know Steny's Lake Country, you already expect a good time--and this newer location (only…read moreabout 2 years old) delivers, even though it's tucked into a corporate park. Don't let that throw you off--it's super easy to find and the parking lot is a huge plus (no circling like downtown). We stopped in for their Derby party and it was a blast. Fun games, great energy, and an overall lively atmosphere that made it feel like an event, not just a night out. Food-wise, we kept it classic: cheese curds and the lobster dip--both were really good. The curds hit that perfect crispy/cheesy balance, and the lobster dip felt a little elevated but still totally shareable and worth it. I'd definitely go back again, but next time I'd probably pick a less busy time so we can relax a bit more and try more of the menu. The atmosphere was great during the event, but it'd be nice to experience it on a more laid-back visit too.

    Long tables for bigger groups. Low and tall seating too.

    I haven't been to BJ's in a while, but this was easily the best visit I've ever had. Our waiter…read moreNate was fantastic and deserves a special shoutout. I tried their tavern pizza, and it was the best pizza I've had in a long time. It had a paper thin crust, was cooked perfectly, and was filling. My s'mores pizookie was great too, but in my opinion, it could've used less marshmallow.

    We'd been to BJ's once before and had a 5 star experience, so decided to try it again yesterday,…read moreand I'm sorry to say that it was not a repeat performance. The first thing that put us off was the seating. The restaurant wasn't busy, as it was around 4 pm, and there was plenty of seating. I am temporarily and obviously handicapped, yet the host took us way to the back of the restaurant, up some stairs, and to an elevated booth - why, when seating was available at the front and others were seated there? Our booth's table hadn't been cleaned and the banquette on my husband's side had crumbs all over and a glop of wet ketchup. Our sodas came very promptly, and we ordered and it took perhaps 15 minutes for our food. My husband did like his burger, and it was cooked to order. The French fries, though, were dry and not hot, just barely warm. He also got a cup of coleslaw, which he took home. I had a house side salad, which was good, accompanied by a bowl of soup. The soup was tepid at best and had a skin already formed on the surface; it was also the wrong flavor. I had ordered chicken tortilla and got clam chowder. I asked for the right soup, and for it to be hot; after waiting for 7 minutes, it was delivered, but I once again received clam chowder! I like clam chowder, and as I didn't see the server, I just ate it, and it was good - and hot. But still. What struck us as being very unprofessional was a cluster of between 5 and 7 servers, all hanging around a table playing with their phones and talking and laughing loudly amongst themselves. That just didn't leave a good impression with us. And the coleslaw my husband took home? He decided to eat it after having it in the fridge at home a couple hours, and it had a rancid, sour, spoiled taste. Not going back to BJ's, for sure!!
