Had a great experience overall here. The food was very good and seemed like the chef knew what they were doing. The server was quick to bring drinks and was on top of getting refills - great job! Food did not take too long to come out either. After we ate we headed downstairs and enjoyed some great live music! My wife and I will definitely be visiting again soon and would recommend trying it yourself!

Monday is bingo night! We sat in a side room and it was quiet enough to chat. Service staff was friendly. The brussel sprouts were great. 1917 Burger was good. The scallops were cooked perfectly, but my guest did not care for the corn sauce. 3 NA beers on the list.

On a summer day, got an experience outside near the lake. The customer service was kind. The food was very filling and delicious. The 1917 burger was awesome and the flatbread pizza was a big surprise as to how great it was. My only nitpick is that the root beer could've used some ice. In conclusion, the beer-battered cheese curds were the best curds!

We visited with a large group of about 10 for my nephew’s birthday, and I was really impressed with everything. No one had a single negative thing to say about their meal. My seared tuna and French onion soup were amazing! Our server was fantastic—she was incredibly sweet, attentive, and very prompt. The entire experience exceeded expectations and left nothing to be desired. I will absolutely be going back!

Food and service was great. A beautiful spot overlooking the lake for an enjoyable meal. My only disappointment was lunch and dinner are two separate menus and it's tough to get over to try out at dinner time.... but the dinner menu looks super intriguing so I'm going to correlate a trip soon!

Love the window seats! Been coming to this establishment for 20 years. The updates were needed! The bar area is open and everything is so clean. Hats off to Loopy and his team! All the food was so good. The fries were super good also. The only complaint the tartar sauce is goofy.

Wow, our first time! Very impressed from the moment we walked in the door - hostess friendly and seated us immediately at a table with a view (note- we did have reservations). The interior gave a contemporary vibe. We treated ourselves to their old-fashioned drinks, awesome! We choose to start with their classic cheese curds. Truly, the best cheese curds in the Eau Claire/Chippewa Valley - freshly battered and salted to perfection! Our table ordered wings, salad, walleye cakes, French dip, and they 1917 burger. Everything was full of flavor from the first bite until the last. I was celebrating my birthday, and they offered me a free dessert, of course, I chose the chocolate cake with four spoons to share! When the candle was lit, it flamed with sparks, a perfect way to end a wonderful evening. Thank you!
