Jody Eis-Kraemer: Smoky's has the old school supper club atmosphere that I remember as a child growing up in NE WI. The filet mignon is fantastic (melts in your mouth).
Cosmopolitan Magazine: The sweetest Cosmo Cocktail you'll ever order! The Malibu Coconutini is a delicious concoction of rum, chocolate liqueur, and it comes garnished with a chocolate lollipop. Yum-my! Read more.
Tricia Pawelski: Best steaks in the Midwest for a reason- yum! Love the relish plate. Pricey, but you get SO much food that you get your money's worth!
Paul Deutsch: All the beers are great, give the Deep Winter Coffee Stout a try. It's made with Just Coffee, roasted right across the street.
Danielle Johnson: The Silk Scorpion Black IPA is beyond comparison. A silky, heavenly brew!
Terrence: Beer: better than good. Service: worse than average.

Anna Lauren: For brunch, take note that the blue corn pancake with chili butter and chili maple syrup is completely delicious.
Ken Soliva: The new happy hour menu is fantastic, and cheap! The Beef and Chorizo Street Tacos deserve a permanent spot on the regular menu. The salsa arbol is a keeper too.
Dan Miller: Half price appetizers for happy hour. 430-630.

Jody Eis-Kraemer: Get a bottle of the Super Tuscan, Villa Puccini red wine. Try the marinated golden beet salad and hand-pulled burrata.
Sean Lawler: A good place to read the paper and have a beer with Senator Fred Risser, the longest serving state legislator in American political history.
Nick Runge: A bunch of white, rich kids being over charged for drinks..

Jenny Mackin: love the apple cider dressing!! Delicious! I asked the server what was in it and I'm going to try to make it at home! Yummy! Also the fireplace was very inviting on a snowy March afternoon!

Michelle Kacer: Ou highly recommend the S'mores Martini!! And if you come on Monday they are only $5!!
