Service was a bit slow and it was quite noisy but both were understandable because we were sitting in the very busy bar area during the Wild game. (Go Wild!) The food was excellent. Walleye for two of us and a turkey and cranberry sandwich for the third. The broccoli and loaded baked potato that came with the walleye dinner were delicious, as well. We will definitely return.
