Ann HAugust 20, 2012Such a beautiful menu in such a beautiful setting! Quiet, and the timing of the food as well as the spectacular presentation made for an unforgettable evening. Cannot wait to go back!- Alexa RJune 11, 2013I'm obsessed with this restaurant. Coming for lunch? Try the salmon salad. Happy hour? Razor clams and mussels. Dinner? The scallops and colossal shrimp. I promise there isn't anything you won't enjoy
- Annah PlaisanceSeptember 4, 2021Loved the cocktails and scallops! The cheese board is also to die for. Cannot wait to return in the future !
Toni BrucatoJune 12, 2015The fish tacos are worth a visit! The Blue Gills were tasty & succulent with an accompanying flavorful sauce. Can't beat the view from the patio,
Lucas SjostromDecember 13, 2012Great food, great service. Probably the best of both in town. Came with our 8-week old and when my wife had to feed her outside they remade her food. I highly recommend!
Reid BarwickJuly 6, 2018Upscale ambience inside and riverside patio great evening with river view. Probably as good as it gets in LaCrosse.
Excellent Tavern menu! Try their burger, it's the best in town. If your going for fine dining, you have to request Angie as a server, Gusty is a close second.
The Waterfront Restaurant and TavernMay 17, 2016Arrive early on Wednesday nights for hand rolled sushi from our chef! Service starts at 5pm, new rolls every week.
The BLU GroupAugust 12, 2011Chef Alex is dedicated to providing the freshest ingredients (organic and locally grown whenever possible) and everything they do here is top notch. We cannot recommend this restaurant enough. Great!
I love that they try new things...but the Spanish Bruschetta might be a miss. One was OK. Not feeling so great after two. It's a little fishy. Try it yourself and let me know what you think.
Sabrina ScottJanuary 3, 2013Very attentive waitstaff! The hostess seemed a little snooty, but the food was great, so I'm willing to overlook that one minor detail.
Anthony VillareJanuary 28, 2012Ahi Tuna Tartar was excellent. Fois Gras Bruchetta was very tasty, too.
Ask about the featured martini - they have a new one each week. Mmmmm ;)
- Try the clams & mussels, its a delicious dish to share.
John BissellApril 23, 2013Servers will ignore you. When you complain and the GM is supposed to call you he won't. Go somewhere else where they appreciate their guests.
