Best mocha of my life! Cozy, comfy surroundings, where people seem to know each other. We first stopped here on our way up north; we liked it so much, we planned our route back to include another stop at Great Northern Coffee Traders.

Monicals

Reviewed By Tony R - Massachusetts

We stopped in after a day in the Minocqua area for a late lunch, there were five in our family group, 1 pre-teen and 1 teenager and three adults. When we arrived the waitress/hostess tried it seat us at a table that would only accommodate four people - the restaurant was not full and there were plenty of tables available. We refused and asked to be seated at a table that would actually accommodate our party - the waitress/hostess was not pleased with our request to be seated at a larger table but eventually walked over to a larger table and tossed the menus down.

We had a different person as our waitress - service was a bit slow and the waitress did not check in with us on our needs often - i.e. drinks.

Two of us had the vegetarian lasagna - noodles were under cooked and overall poor taste. One of us had the ravioli and another had the tortellini - average to below average. The bread sticks that came with out meals were good - the best part of the meal actually.

The final member of our party had a pizza - this was decent and tasty, very thin crust which worked in this case.

We also ordered an appetizer of cheese sticks - warning stay away from them, not good - they tasted like a poor commercial variety of cheese stick.

Overall very poor food and service and we would not go back.

Best part of the meal was the view of the lake.

If you’re in Minocqua you need to check out Minocqua Pizza. Located across from The Waters. Amazing food, they have what they call Billy Bread, it’s amazing. They have lots of different pizzas available in 12 inch and 16 inch. Appetizers also, soda and beer.
You won’t be disappointed

Norwood Pines Supper Club

Reviewed By jsh326 - Orlando, Florida

The beautiful wooded lot makes a wonderful backdrop for this restaurant set back from the lake. Lots of good hors d'oeuvres upon arrival. The disappointment came with the room temperature and scrawny overpriced crab legs. There isn't much to say for the bland fish either when dozens of taverns around plate up beautiful fish fries every Friday night at a lower price. The coleslaw was good, the corn fritters were like fried tasteless rubber in bad need of the corn syrup (called maple syrup) that is served with them. We did have friendly service.

Four Seasons Supper Club

Reviewed By Bob M - Lake Bluff, Illinois

This place was recommended by a friend who raved about their real (not mushed-down fried mashed potatoes) German-style potato pancakes. Unfortunately, as we found out, those are only served on Fridays! We skipped the alternative mushed-down fried mashed potato pancakes they serve the other days of the week.

However, that disappointment aside, we did have a good meal.. My prime rib was good, mostly tender and a decent flavor -- I'd put it at the 60th percentile of restaurant prime ribs that I've eaten. We arrived early, but wern't seated even tho there were many tables available until our reservation time. We did each get a glass of wine and sat on the very nice outside area and enjoyed the great view while waiting to be seated. It was a nice way to wait. The dinner was good (not great, but definitely good), the view was great, the service was on the slow side but the price was very reasonable. 2 dinners and 3 glasses of wine for $71.00 including tax and tip.

Given the price, I will certainly go back.
