    Had we known it was a local high school function, with lots of kids being seated before us, we would have chosen a different night. With our reservation we waited a half hr.

    We have been coming here for many years. Excellent service as usual. My wife felt that the walleye special was bland. The tartar too overpowering. The fish needed a nice lemon butter sauce perhaps. My dejong salmon was fine.
