BLT was very well prepared with just the right amount/ratio of key ingredients (inc ample amounts of bacon) and mayonnaise. In short the BLT is exactly the way your perfect idea of a grandmother would make a BLT for her favorite grandchild. The Reuben is classically done and the best you'll find outside of a serious delicatessen. Both garlic and regular cheese curds were well batter fried and tasted flavorful and 'squeaky'. Stop here... you won't regret

Let me clarify this is a 4.5 star rating. Our friends at Yelp still won't give us half stars…read more After visiting Northwoods Inn, I tell people, "I had a great meal at a gas station recently.". No kidding, don't let the gas station vibes throw you, this place has great eats. We walked in through the gas station part of the building and were surprised to see the rustic decor of a medium sized dining area and an adjacent bar. It was a pretty full dining room and we sat ourselves. It didn't look promising as we saw one waitress and one bartender. However, after a brief wait, the waitress came to our table and assured us she would return as quickly as possible to get our drink and food orders. She returned as promised. Our drinks arrived a short time later. They were well made and attention was paid to get us another round as we finished the first. Our table had ribs, prime rib and a French dip sandwich. The portion size was great and the food arrived hot. The ribs were fall-off-the-bone tender and the sauce was tasty. The prime rib had great flavor, was prepared as ordered and had very little fat. The French dip was also tasty. Truth be told, a salad bar would make this a true five star rating. The salads served with the meal were nice but very run-of-the-mill. Will we go back in the future? You betcha!

My personal favorite is the Western omelet and hash browns, of course with a coffee in their signature mugs! You can buy the mugs as well which is a fun keepsake.
