Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"Great nachos and a nice place to meet up for some eats. It’s a large venue right off the highway plenty of room to enjoy a meal or cocktail. Currently under renovation."
"We came to town from Columbus, Wisconsin. A 2 hr drive, in a snow storm for tonight's concert! We ate lunch. Pizza & a gyro. I'm extremely picky about my Gyros. I've eaten them in 7 different states & nothing until today, compared or was as satisfying as Parthanons in Madison, Wisconsin! We decided to go back for dinner before the concert! Wife had deep fried green beans + chicken & dumplings. I had Boom Boom Shrimp. Everything was absolutely to die for! From portion size, presentation & flavor! The concert itself was also great! Jen our server for dinner was extremely tentative to our needs form the time we sat down until 6.5 hrs later when we left! We will definitely be back for food & hopefully another concert! Thanks for such great Service all the way around today! Sorry, I forgot to take photos of food both times!"
"Stopped in here for quick bite on the way home and ate at the bar. This place is quite huge, with an additional dog friendly outdoor patio. They serve breakfast, starting at 8:00 a.m., and their lunch/dinner menu offers a great selection of starters, wraps, burgers, pizza, chicken, fish and more. My husband had the fried shrimp dinner, and I had the bbq ribs. My husband enjoyed his shrimp, saying the outside was perfectly crispy while the shrimp stayed nice and tender. My ribs were fantastic. The sauce was amazing and the meat truly fell of the bone. Route 20 is easy on/easy off the freeway, which makes it convenient if you are looking for a great place to eat and drink while heading in either direction. Enjoy good food, fast service, and a fun atmosphere."
"Stopped by happenstance on our way home from Milwaukee. Jen, our server, was great. She was friendly, helpful, fast, and really took care of us. Amazing chili, my wife and I spilt a giant quesadilla, E had the BBQ pulled pork sandwich with tater tots. Lots of food, all good. Will remember this place."
"The best chicken tenders I have ever had. Our server Kim was very nice and took care of us well. The atmosphere was very nice and relaxing for the the time of day we went which was during early afternoon. Keep up the awesome work everyone and I will continue to keep coming back"
"Absolutely amazing experience. Went for an Adam Calhoun concert and was absolutely blown away it was incredible. The bar is a great atmosphere the prices are extremely reasonable and the food is dynamite. The staff were absolutely incredible very helpful, friendly and extremely attentive. Id highly recommend to anyone looking for a great place to eat, have a drink and enjoy the ambiance."
"I ate here for breakfast, and it was so good that I came back for supper. I had wings and smothered chicken, and it was all amazing. The service was awesome. I think my server's name was Jennifer, and she did a great job. I will most definitely come back when I am in the area"
"5 Stars ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ they definitely need more of these restaurants!!! a few months back I had tried the two chicks one waffle, which is a chicken waffle sandwich and hands-down absolutely delicious I had never had chicken and waffles before I actually thought that idea was obscene to combine your chicken with your waffle. Well I was wrong. It’s absolutely delicious like I said before. This restaurant has a very welcoming atmosphere. They have bands playing almost every weekend. They even do benefits to raise money for events like the cancer awareness which was going on when we came today. The waitress definitely has a personality. You can have a conversation with the restrooms We’re spotless and I liked the decor the hardwood floors/tile nice added touch. The layout of the dining area as well put together were you can actually see everything that’s going on They even have an upstairs which when a band is going on I’m sure it is a great place to enjoy the music from. There is a bar area as well where there’s a pool table and slot machines. And then there is also an outside patio area for dining. Every time I come into town here this is definitely a spot that we stop at so that we can enjoy those chicken and waffles."
