The food was average. Nothing exciting. It's a fun place though and the service was good and drinks were served right away. I would go back because it's close to the Wild Eagle Lodge where we were staying. We could even walk there.

The restaurant was only half full when we got there but no one ever came to serve us after we were seated. At one point we saw two employees arguing about who had to serve our table. No one ever came. Two more tables close to us were seated and at least got waters. We finally told the manager and he said he couldnât do anything about it. I would say they were racist and bigoted but we were the same race as them. The place looks nice but the people stink.

1st time for us at Buckshots. Festival weekend in Eagle River and many places were not open. Great chili and soups, cheese curds and onion rings. Sandwiches looked good going to other tables. About 20 tap beers available. Place was busy but they kept up and were very attentive to everyone. We will definitely go back and try more of their menu items.Thank you so much, Debra. We truly appreciate the great rating and kind comments about our awesome food. We look forward to your next visit. Thank you, Debra.

A very local type restaurant-good food, friendly waitress but the atmosphere was OK. I guess having a direct view into the rest rooms from our table was a turn off for me. Choose your table wisely!Thank you. Not much we can do with the restrooms, being a small place.

My sister and I opted to eat dinner here after all our choices in Minocqua were closed on Tuesday. We were seated near a window which offered views of the river. We had been here before and liked it. My sister got the salmon Wellington and loved it, it was an off menu special that day. I chose the Riverstone which is an Angus burger without bun served on Demi-glacé with Yukon mashed potatoes and a vegetable and was really good. The bread they bring to the table prior to your meal is sooo good it is hard to save room for your meal and they have seasoned dipping oil on the table for it. The staff were all so friendly and efficient. I also got dessert which was Tiramisu served in a wine glass, YUM! The restaurant and restrooms are very clean.

We were there on "Walleye Wednesday." Since we love walleye, we felt lucky. We ordered the cajun pan-fried version. The slabs of fish are really big and the whole meal was generous. I had two problems: They used so much cajun spice that it was almost like breading and it was nearly too hot, spice-wise, to eat. Second, it was not a filet and it was full of tiny bones that were really hard to pick out. I gave up after awhile and didn't finish my fish.The covered patio faces are really nice little park. Our waitress was pleasant and the service was fine.

We came to Eddie Bâs for dinner after an active day in the North woods. We chose to sit on the patio as it was a lovely night and we could see deer across the river. The entire staff including the bartender, hostess, busser and our server Mike were warm and friendly. Mike assisted us with our menu choices and was attentive. The wine and beer selection was ample, and all good. Our entire table had the ribs, which were smoky and tender with a tangy sauce. We really enjoyed our night and will return in future visits up north.

We ate here twice. It was enjoyable on both occasions. Interesting entrees with variety. I had a cod dish one day similar to a scampi with lots of garlic seasoning. It went great with the margarita. Delicious walleye fish fry on Friday. My husband totally enjoyed it. If it pleases him than it must be good. Staff was friendly and prompt on both occasions.

We usually love to eat at Leifâs but the last few times not so much. We waited half an hour for our food and had to flag down a waitress to order at all. The pancakes were particularly cooked and totally raw (liquid batter) in the middle. The skillet I ordered was cold and hash browns were burnt. Bacon on the side was charred. Service was not at their peak today, hard to get coffee refills and they were not that busy :(Breakfast216, we are grateful for your long-time patronage. We are so sorry that your expectations were not met on your pancakes, bacon, and skillet. We are sharing your input with our kitchen staff for action. We truly would appreciate the opportunity to wow you with a delicious meal. We hope you will reconsider and allow us the privilege of serving you a fully satisfying meal.

Server Kyle was a big part of a delightful breakfast experience. He brought drinks, took our order, and delivered our meal faster than most restaurants take to just ask what we wanted to eat. Their extensive breakfast included typical breakfast foods and more exotic offerings, such as eggs Benedict and Florentine crepes. Kyle enabled my gluten intolerant husband was able to enjoy bread with his eggs by offering gluten-free rolls. He also allowed my husband to substitute bacon for other breakfast meats. While my preference for lighter breakfasts could have been met with their one egg senior breakfast, their equally affordable single Florentine crepe (with spinach, mushrooms, Swiss cheese, and hollandaise) was as delicious as it sounds. Kyle brought a carafe of coffee that allowed my husband to keep his coffee steamy hot. This place was an unexpected treat.
