“the BEST Broaster chicken, ribs, and burgers AROUND”

  • Great service and the best food we had during our vacation in Crosslake! Loved the vibe and wished we hadn't gone on our last evening so we could have stayed longer!

    – Jamie B.

  • Ribs… ribs are the best ever! I lived in Kansas City, and these are still the best ribs. The au gratin potatoes on the side are a must!

    – Olivia J.

  • Amazing food with great staff! The salad we had was top-notch, and the burger was cooked to perfection! You can't beat the drinks!

    – Erin L.

  • Patrick is serious about providing really good food at very fair prices. The burgers are excellent, the broasted chicken is wonderful, the ribs are finger-licking good, and the walleye sandwich is the best in the area—all of which deserve a side of their fresh-cut fries, my favorite! Top it off with your favorite beverage or a high-end bourbon that no other establishment can beat price-wise. Go check it out once, and I bet you'll be back!

    – David K.

  • I love sitting out on the deck. The food and service are great, and it's very relaxing to watch the lake and listen to the sounds of nature.

    – Bonnie S.

  • I love this restaurant! Best broasted chicken and drinks around! Never had a bad meal here. We really enjoy the beautiful views from the windows and deck. Great place and a fun bar!

    – Linda C.

  • The food was fantastic! The service was extremely friendly, quick, and competent. Best margaritas I've ever had! Even if you aren’t local, you’re made to feel like family from the moment you walk in. Trying this place ended up being the best dining experience we've had in a long time!
