Average burgers, average service, over priced for what seems like a hole in the wall joint. Nothing else really to say but trip advisor requires 100 characters so this should do it...

We arrived at this restaurant at 1:20 on Sunday afternoon Aug.11th. We were promptly greeted by a young lady hostess that was very pleasant. We were seated immediately. Then the wait started. 13 minutes before we met by a server when we ordered our drinks AND lunch. The meal arrived in a reasonable amount of time but no drinks (ice tea) We caught the eye of the server by waiving and asked for our ice tea. When she brought them, she apologized for wait. 25 minutes later, I had to waive for the hostess as I never saw our server to ask for a refill of the ice tea after the meal was over. While eating, another table got their food delivered and no drinks. They got up and told another server they were leaving as they never received their drinks. The table behind us received their food and again the customers had to ask for their drinks again. We finished our meal and second glass of ice tea and had to get up and ask server for check. When she brought it and left it on table, it was the wrong check. It was much less than it should have been so I had to waive to the server to motion her to come to the table. I advised her the check was for not ours and much less than it should have been. I asked for a credit and the correct check. After10 minutes she returned and asked that I just pay the lesser check as they were too busy to do all the corrections. I agreed and paid the lesser amount but after close to an hour and a half to get a hamburger, all I wanted was to end the experience. This was the case the case with the family behind us as well. I will not be returning to this poorly run, understaffed establishment. The restaurant has great atmosphere and it a nice place BUT whoever is in charge needs to be replaced with someone who knows how to run a restaurant as well as the two servers. Major changes needed. Too bad.

Avoid the âspecialsâ. Unfortunately, this restaurant put a damper on what was supposed to be a special and rare night out with my husband. We went for Valentineâs Day, left the kids home, paid a sitter, etc, etc. I ordered the Prime Rib and Crab Leg special for $25.99, my husband ordered the steak special for a similar price. We both ordered the french onion soup and baked potato as our sides. The menu stated that my meal came with 8-10oz of prime rib, and 3 king crab legs. I love crab but donât often get to enjoy it, so that was the portion of the meal I was most excited for. It was very disappointing when my plate arrived and instead of the â3 king crab legsâ stated in the menu, I had ONE king crab leg that had been sliced into 4 pieces, which they gave me 3 of; the math on that is 3/4 of 1 crab leg. The legs were broken at the joint, and then sliced long ways as to expose the meat, causing the meat to dry out and go cold almost immediately.That is bad enough, but add to that that the tendons were not removed from the legs prior to cutting, so on my romantic night out I am picking though cold crab meat and pulling stray tendons out of my mouth. We could hear multiple other diners in the room also taking issue with the crab portions and the serving style. The prime rib was an okay size but luke warm and lacking flavor. The soups were not good at all, they tasted like broth with stale bread and a pile of powdered Parmesan cheese on top. French onion is my absolute favorite and Iâm usually not picky about flavor, but I decided this soup wasnât worth the calories to finish. My husbands steak was ordered medium, but served very close to well done, and also very fatty. We both agreed that the best part of our meals were the baked potatoes. Our waitress was wonderful; very kind and attentive. She told us that their âspecialsâ are normally small, but more expensive (which is why I opened my review with âavoid the specialsâ). This location is beautiful, the wait staff is great, but the overpriced and lackluster food spoils the whole experience.

Went for dinner tonight, it's Friday in WI, so it's fish fry. Love that the fish and chips were served in the paper cones, along with cinnamon flavored fried apple slices (delicious). Three large pieces of haddock, lightly breaded, fried to perfection; potato slices, kind of like steak fries with malt vinegar to add to them; super fresh salted rye and Irish soda bread slices (like cake). I'm not a sweet tartar sauce fan, but the lemons were enough. Brought enough home for another meal tomorrow night. Joe was our server and was so helpful and friendly, would have been happy to have him join us. I highly recommend, hope to go back for lamb shanks on a Thursday night. Good job, all of you at Foley's.

We decide to go for brunch today. We have had lunch here before but never Sunday Brunch. It take awhile to get here but it was worth the trip. The buffet was well stocked. All the food was hot and fresh. We enjoyed a peaceful meal.

Nobody would think of visiting the Americana restaurant unless you were staying at the Ridge Hotel. And it's out of the way for Lake Geneva tourists (3-5 miles west of town). We had a surprisingly great dining experience there about 3 months ago... and tried it again last week to another great dinner. The romain wedge salad was the best salad my wife ever had. A salad! Delish house dressing, gorganzola, egg, smoked bacon and topped with perfectly grilled salmon.I had the prime rib, sea salt rubbed baked potato, vegetables. Fresh, cooked to perfection, to die for. Accompanied with a hand-muddled Brandy Old Fashion -- Sour "When in Wisconsin..." and a glass of Proseco.The help was wonderfully polite. A bit green. But fine. The bill was $90. P.S. GREAT window views of a lake and outdoor patio / tiki bar.

Red Dogs has a wide variety of sandwiches along with pizza. Good is made fresh and is reasonably priced. You can bring your pet and there are also menu items for your pet. Takes located on the outdoor deck are pet friendly. Fun place to bring the while family.

We had never been there before, went on a slow Tuesday night and almost walked out. No one seemed to notice that a group of 7 had walked in and was waiting to be seated - I finally had to go to the bar area to even be acknowledged and the bartender only had ONE customer!! There were 3 other tables of people eating, so we became #4. We seated ourselves and waited & waited & waited for a waitress. She did finally come by, dropped off menus and disappeared again! No smile, chit chat or drink orders exchanged! It seemed like all we did that night was wait and then wait some more!! The pizza was good, but we definitely couldn't recommend the meatballs - very chewy! And the second drink order came as we were finishing our meal!! We also had some older kids in our group who were excited about the game room during our marathon waiting time, but soon came back to the table to report how many of the machines were broken and out of order!! Maybe Pino's would be a good place for carryout pizza, but we are definitely not going back to dine in - it was our Last Call going there!!

It's hard to believe that we've never been to Harpoon Willies in all the years we've been coming to this area. A friend recommended so we went for dinner before visiting the Belfry Theatre for a show.We ran into several people we know who also were dining pre-Belfry. I had a delicious mushroom/swiss burger and sweet potato fries and my spouse had a chicken sandwich and salad. All the food was delicious and we thoroughly enjoyed our dinner. We will definitely return again very soon and highly recommend it.

We visited at an off hour to grab a sandwich after driving up from Chicago. We were warmly welcomed. This is a place your order at the bar kind of place. I have found this format frustrating when places are very busy, but it was a nonissue due to the off hour. The sandwiches we ate were delicious and the prices seemed low, until we realized sides are extra. (Which I like if all I want is a sandwich). It has a fun view of the lake. Being an indoor, outdoor place the flies were annoying but the lake area seems full of them this year. One young employee was given a fly swatter and bottle of cleaner to decrease the population. Relax and eat here.
