Well, I just wasted $8.50 on the worst Bloody Mary mix I've ever tried. Actually, the entire…read moreexperience was less than pleasant here. I walked up to the bar, was greeted by a woman with a sour look on her face, and ordered a non-alcoholic Bloody Mary. I asked for it to be spicy. I've been ordering these drinks with and without alcohol for about 40 years now: This was the only undrinkable one I've encountered. It tasted like Red Hot on the rocks. I took a couple of sips and had to go throw up in the bathroom. Not kidding. My stomach and mouth were on fire. I'm still sick over an hour later. The two people I was with ordered food and were happy with it. I only had this horrible drink. When the waitress came back a couple of times, my full drink sat in front of me. She didn't ask if something was wrong with it. The second time she came back to the table I told her she could take the drink, that it was not drinkable. She said their mix is hot. Understatement of the year! There aren't a lot of people up north who like things spicy. I, however, do. She was kind enough to leave the full glass and bring a bill for $8.50. I paid it. On the way out, I handed the full drink to the sour faced lady that had originally "greeted" me at the bar. I told her it was so hot that it was undrinkable. No offer of a refund. I told her it was a nice way to spend $8.50. Now I remember why we stopped going here.

Yelp for the win! I always check the app when I'm in an area where I'm unfamiliar with the…read morerestaurants. Once again, the Yelp reviews helped me find a restaurant we will certainly return to in the future. It was a Friday night. The large gravel parking lot was about half full. The building, overlooking Lake Pokegama, looked like many other up north bars. Walking in, I really wasn't sure if we were in the right place. Happily, we were. My dining partner and I sat at the bar. We were greeted right away by the bartenders and asked for our drink orders. The drinks had a great pour and were affordable. We were asked if we wanted to eat and promptly received menus. The menu had a lot of stuff. Appetizers, sandwiches, burgers, pizza and fish. Having read reviews I was leaning toward the beef sandwich, while my dining partner wanted pizza. When the bartender said those were her favorite menu items, we decided to get one of each to split among us. Good choice! The sandwich was packed with meat and cheese. I could have drank the au jus; it was so good. While it was $22 (with fries), it would have been a big sandwich for most people to finish. The pizza was fantastic. The only pizza I enjoyed more was from a place in Nashville. The crust was top notch. The toppings were generous and prepared well. My dining partner and I are big eaters; we still had four (4) big pieces left at the end of our meal (it was great cold). It wasn't nice enough to sit outside on their large patio during our visit. We plan on returning here frequently in the future and will give it a try (weather permitting).

Excellent service (they know how to pour a good cocktail), excellent conversation, and a great way to spend a lil' time. You MUST order the chicken wings.

I've read other reviews that say it's kinda spendy but truth be told, they run a great operation with local flair. I can't be mad to get awesome pizza without pretension. It is exactly what you want. I only wish I lived nearby so this could be my regular watering hole.

When the lady brought our pizza we questioned if it was the right one because it was not a large pizza it was only a 12 inch. She seemed mad about something and rudely said that it was our pizza and that they only had 12" pizzas tonight. Well no one mentioned that when we ordered so how did we know. We've been coming here for years and have never had a negative experience. This place has new owners now and unfortunately things have changed and not for the better I'm afraid. We've always ordered the wings in the past as they are very large and delicious. We noticed wings were on special tonight and prefer them. When they arrived they were not the usually large wings but they were small drummies and flats. We told our waiter afterwards that we were disappointed that they changed the wings from what we were used to. He then tells us they still have the large wings it was just that the wing special was the smaller wings. Information we could have used at the time we ordered. Very sorry to see the old owners gone. I guess we had a good run though. I guess we'll have to try chubby cheeks and see what that's like
