California Pizza Kitchen

Reviewed By ClintTraveler

We love their soups, salads and draft beers. I do miss the corn chowder but today we really enjoyed the loaded potato and the tomato bisque. We also had the huge lunch portion BBQ Copped Chicken and Oriental salads. We both commented that we normally avoid chain restaurants but CPK doesn’t feel like a chain. Service excellent. Clean. We will be back.

Jack Pandl's Whitefish Bay Inn

John Pandl opened Pandl's Whitefish Bay Inn in 1915 right here in this historic building. The current owner is his grandson. Enjoy traditional German favorites as well as popular American entrées in a casually intimate atmosphere with fresh flowers on you

Jack Pandl's Whitefish Bay Inn is a true old school, family style dining experience with a German influenced menu. The entrees are decent but not great and the service can be 'uneven' at times.

We were staying in the hotel and wanted to not go out. We enjoyed the buffet breakfast and in the evening a beer or other beverage at the end of the day. The staff was so nice and provided us with silverware and plates to take to the rooms as well. The menu is reasonably price and the food is really good.

Glen Cafe

Reviewed By TheWuch

Four of us meet here for breakfast once a month - and we are not the only group to frequent this friendly, neighborhood restaurant. The menu offers all the usual breakfast fare, the waitress keeps the coffee flowing and you can actually have a conversation without raising your voice to be heard!! They also serve lunch and dinner - with homemade soups and daily specials - and on some nights they have live music!!

Solly's Grille

Solly’s Grille is an 82 year old small cafe/diner. You sit on swivel stools with backs at two horseshoe counters. Our butter burgers were originated in 1936 by my stepfather Kenneth Salmon. We also serve our homemade pies, tuna salad, chicken salad, cold

We visited Solly’s early on a Friday evening for dinner, my first time going. The atmosphere is an old-school diner, and they do not have any alcohol or beer – instead, you can order shakes and malts. The seating is all counter seating around the main grill and soda fountain, so if you’re with a group or it is crowded, you may struggle to find seating. The service was okay – the server who ended up finishing our dinner with us was friendlier. It was cool to see the burgers being cooked in front of you, and although I appreciated that the servers were able to do some of the cooking as there appeared to be only one chef…please be sure to have them wear appropriate cooking attire, like gloves and hats/hair nets…because I did unfortunately suffer the consequences. Because of that, I am disappointed to say I think I would avoid returning.I was torn between one of their famous burgers and the fish fry (since it was Friday). Ultimately, I went with the fish fry, which was fine, but I would say to stick with what they’re known for. The fish fry was decent, but it was breaded – I feel like battered fish fry is so much better. My significant other had the Peno Burger (jalapenos, pepper jack cheese, and onions) which was delicious and dripping with butter, as they’re known for. Check your diet at the door! The fries were good, nice and crispy. We didn’t have enough room for dessert, but they had a variety of pies available.

The North Shore's newest restaurant, serving inspired American Comfort Food in an upscale-casual atmosphere. Warm. Welcoming. And waiting for you.

Reviewed By Yoop6424

This place checks all the boxes. Great food; pesto salmon, the best risotto I’ve ever had, great Tuscan bread, shrimp and scallops pasta, chocolate torte with berries! All amazing! The espresso Martini was great, the service was lacking but they were slammed and had one bartender and two servers who rocked it, with the support of a great food runner and two young bus boys: definitely can be overlooked due to the great demeanor of the servers and outstanding teamwork. A great spot. Definitely will be back.

Reviewed By payitfwd71

I was under the impression that the restaurant was open until 9:00. I arrived just after 8. The lights were on. Doors were open. But nobody home. No host/hostess or waitstaff. Completely empty. I waited a little while but nobody came out. So back to the hotel room I went. Ordered room service and the food was excellent!I had never heard of anything such as Quebec Poutine Tots and I am not sure what every ingredient was in it but it was delicious. The entree was just as good... Herbed chicken with risotto may not be the most adventurous item to order but it was amazing! Ate more than I should have. Portions were quite large. I wish I could have dined in the restaurant and viewed the river but I still feel myself lucky to have had such a memorable meal.

Stopped for lunch after shopping at Bayshore Mall. More and more restaurants seem to be closing near Bayshore. We were able to get seated right away on Sunday for lunch around 12 pm which was great. Our waitress was pleasant. The menu is huge like 14+ pages and calories are listed next to each food item. I ordered a side of grilled asparagus which was delicious for less than $7, the skinny-licious turkey burger I ordered for $8 came with no side and was about half the size of normal burger but nonetheless was flavorful. I won't come back due to price/value.Hello and thanks for your feedback. We are sorry we have not been able to provide you with an exceptional experience. Perhaps you'd like to join us for Happy Hour for discounted food and drinks. We also offer wonderful Small Plates and Snacks that are a great value. Thanks again and we hope you can give us another try.

Devon Seafood + Steak

Devon Seafood Grill is an upscale seafood restaurant offering simply-prepared fresh fish, premium steaks, an impressive wine cellar and handcrafted cocktails.

Reviewed By Pat N

We visit Devons 4 or 5 times a year. Tonight there was no Wow factor. People that came in after us got their food before we did. The food was good, the server was OK, but it took a really long time for our food to come. Open table asks is the visit is a special event, and it was, but no one mentioned it or asked. By the way it was our 50th Wedding Anniversary. Flet disappointed, for the price I expect more from Devons.
