We enjoyed the Sunday Brunch, especially the omelettes and the sun Aggie pops. Our service was great!

Won’t be going back, service slow food not cooked completely and not noteworthy

We realized that we could substitute the bree with goat and mozzarella. Very sweet pear Flatbread we'll try other combinations. The chicken special was great with the sides. There was enough salsa to have some on all the Mahi. We're glad we got a dessert menu or we'd have missed out on the new dessert

The brunch is always top notch. The roast beef was exactly how I like it. And the waffles are as tasty as they are pretty

Our server was wonderful, the patio was lovely, great place!

We did the Wisconsin Supper Club themed chef's dinner. We've done them in the past and they were good. This one was just ok we thought. The best course was the fried walleye which was excellent but only came with a tablespoon of slaw, a small smear of tartar sauce and a tiny beer. The first course was just 1 olive, 1 cherry tomato, 2 celery sticks, 1 small chunk of carrot and a couple pickled beets. It was supposed to mimic a relish tray but there was nothing even for dipping. I felt like the first course was 25 cents worth of raw veggies. The main course was cold prime rib and a very tiny "cheesy" potato pancake. My husband has a cheese allergy (which we did let them know in advance) so asked for a different side and he got rancid mashed potatoes. He said they tasted bad so I tried them and thought they tasted like they had sour milk in them. It was gross. Desert was small but good. Each course comes with a beverage but they are always small (the beer was in a juice glass) or mostly ice and very diluted since the bar made them well in advance. We have previously had good experiences here, but this wasn't one of them.

The food is unique and delicious. For those who can't imagine chocolate in everything, they make it work. There actually are a couple items without chocolate in case you really don't want any chocolate.

Waitress was in a hurry. Not worth 30 for brunch. You should always have the other menu available or atleast part of it. Also stop with the gloves. It does nothing except look stupid.

Second visit for Brunch. Nicest server. Hi quality, fresh food. Some original choices. Great presentation. They clearly take pride in their service and food.

Always a great Sunday brunch place to go! Great food, very courteous and attentive from receptionist to wait-staff and servers ( including meat/omelette station and waffle station servers ) .. Molly B and George are consistently welcoming, attentive and pleasant each time we're there !
