| - We (4 adults and a 4-year old) stopped by here to watch the beginning of the Badger game (so about 2:15pm on the Saturday of Labor Day weekend) and came by boat. Although, one of the best features of this location is the 3-story outdoor seating areas, we needed to sit inside to see the game. The 2 large TVs in the bar area had perfectly crisp pictures. We chose a 6-top between the 2 and everyone had a great view.
Two of us ordered from their specialty cocktail menu. And both were delicious and good sized. They were served in rather small (but interesting) glasses and came with an extra glass containing more cocktail. Nice!
Once reviewing the menu we decided to try the $25 poutine. $25 for poutine? One of the barkeeps, Drew, assured us it was the best he's had So we went with it and were very pleased. The portion was huge. It was covered with very good get and shaved truffles. I suggested they offer a half order, as this would be way too much for just two people. We also shared the Brussels sprout salad, which was also quite good. My daughter had the cheese burger with fruit off the kids menu (they only offer a cheeseburger, mac & cheese, and a grilled cheese). It was a nicely sized burger, probably a quarter pound, and came with a grilled bun. The fruit was fresh melon, raspberries, strawberries and blueberries. Perfect! I posted pics of both the truffles and kids burger.
Service was good -- plenty of staff there, even though it wasn't very busy. Overall we we quite pleased and happy there's another good spot to enjoy via boat in the area!
