This is our second (annual) visit to Poncho's for lunch on our trip to the South Shore. We like…read morethis place very much. Clean and "modern" although decorated as a hunting lodge replete with taxidermied heads of deer and bear. Very friendly staff. The menu had changed substantially from October 2024. Husband had the bourbon bacon burger on ciabatta with onion rigns and he ate every last crumb. It looked delicious. I had the fish tacos, which they are evidently known for. However they were out of whitefish that day so substituted trout with my approval. They were OK, the fine breading was a little tough and there was way too much fish on each tortilla. I wasted over half of the fish. Three huge tacos was too many, I would in retrospect suggest a choice of one, two or three. The slaw was not pineapple slaw as listed but still tasty. The french fries were hot and crispy, I am a french fry lover. We'll be back next visit.

Had a great time at Fat Radish during our Labor Day trek to Bayfield County!…read more The Friday All You Can Eat Fish Fry was excellent (for only $16?!!!!), as both the whitefish and trout were fresh and well breaded, the included potatoes and green beans were well seasoned, and the salad was cold and refreshing. My partner's Lake Superior Fish Tacos ($12) were also excellent, with the only regret that they weren't more of them. Finally, the service was excellent: we wanted to catch the sunset at the Cornucopia Beach and they rushed an order of trout out to us so we could make it. The combo of great food, excellent price and outstanding service make Fat Radish a definite must visit in Bayfield County.

As I…read moregot older, I wasn't able to make it up here as often from KC, but a friend of mine took annual trips to the BWCA. I convinced him to stop here on his way back to KC and bring me 3-4 pieces of fish each time. They freeze great, and would be a special treat any time I'd get them out. I was recently able to get back to the North Shore, and it was exactly how I remembered it. The staff were friendly and helpful as well. Inside is small, but packed with lots of goodies. I got a large piece of salmon and some trout as well. I froze them, used pieces multiple times this fall with charcuteries or with smoked salmon dip. I brought the smoked salmon dip to a party, and it was gone almost immediately. Awesome fish, must stop. If you can't stop, twist someone's arm you know that is headed this way to bring you some back.

Naturally, I had them doctor up a little combo of the seafood pasta and the chicken Alfredo. I wanted the peppers and the penne noodles.

When we arrived it was clear there was no table ready for us and we were not even seated in the area we reserved. Our server was nice and the food came out fast. Our walleye cakes had sooooo many bones in them. Every single cake has bones. My friend almost chocked on one. Point blank, it's a major safety hazard and NOT professional. The garlic parmesan wings were terrible. It tasted like a flavorless sauce with a vat of garlic powder dumped in it. My sandwich was adequate, but disappointing for the price. Everything at this restaurant felt cheap and they are lucky there is no competition. It'd be worth the extra hour of your time to book a nice place in Dubuque.

The beer selections were good local beers with only be $6 a pint, very reasonable. My girlfriend got the beer battered & it looked amazing. I was craving something blackened or Cajun & loved my decision. Many places will give the non fried fish choices much smaller pieces but here they did not do this. For $20 it was right on point from a price perspective compared to most Wisconsin places nowadays. Also sweet potato fries not being extra was great. Great indoor decor atmosphere. Very nice place to catch a meal on a weekend night in town.

I could have used a bit more spice on my Cajun grilled. Very good portions. Had a side salad that was also well done. Generous amount of waffle fries. Nice wine for a house Chardonnay. They had Yeungling on tap. Sat in the bar area. Service from the bar and it really good. No problems! Nice stop when in Ashland

My husband said it's not a legit breakfast spot if country fried steak wasn't on the menu. Since Manypenny Bistro had this on the menu, we stopped in on our commute home to Minnesota. We both enjoyed ourselves. Things we loved: seat yourself, friendly and engaging staff, large dog friendly patio, crispy hash browns, homemade raspberry jam, cranberry toast, large portions, cabin style lodging, robust menu, hot coffee and clean atmosphere. My husband (of course) had the country fried steak while I had an omelette with breakfast potatoes. We both had coffee and great conversation. Highly recommend!! Cozy environment.

Each of us also had the soup of the day. The soup was tremendous. Whitefish was so well done. Nice size bun to not overwhelm the fish. To top it off we splurged and split a berry crisp with ice cream on it. Just fantastic. Side note lemonade and fresh tea were very nice as well. Check the hours before you go. No weekends. Found the service very friendly. We'll be back. New favorite in Ashland.

There is truly character in this basement level. If you know the "vibes" of Duluth, this definitely has that charm! When it's warm out, definitely worth taking the food to go and sitting out by superior! The service: polite and very quick to move through a very busy lunch line. Food: my boyfriend got the clubhouse toasted! That was the right move, definitely do that! I got the Cedars secret. The turkey is sooo flavorful!! I mean holy moly! It also comes on a pillowy soft naan bread! They do have gluten free option! I would highly recommend this place for a fresh bite!

It's so nice and light. Perfect start to a meal seafood ravioli served with salmon - ravioli is definitely the star . The salmon is just some back up dancer. That Ravioli is magic.
