    The staff was nice but the food was not very good. There was a bug in our drink which they replaced. I communicated that I didn’t care for my meal with our server but other than saying sorry she didn’t offer to replace the meal with something else or offer any other recovery options like sending over manager. We didn’t want to make a big deal or anything but likely will not return as I left hungry after spending over $150 on dinner. Kinda disappointing.

    As always our server Nate was fantastic, my wife enjoyed the salmon that was featured and I had the walleye, as I do often. Their signature tartar sauce appears to have changed and it was unfortunately not very tasty, the sauce they used before was very special and I was disappointed with how crunchy the breading was on the fish. Please bring back my favorite walleye on your menu.
