The bluegill was excellent, and my wife really enjoyed her burger, which is impressive since she's quite picky! The views were fantastic, and the prices were reasonable. I give this place 5 stars!

Next was $6. Ordered a rare steak sandwich. Confirmed it would be a ribeye. Added mushrooms. Served chopped up dry well done pieces, like a dry French dip (without au jus they do have a French dip sandwich on the menu). 5 mushroom pieces. Talked with the owner. Was told they used to have a steak sandwich that the cook must have chopped it up after tenderizing . A description for the steak sandwich should read chopped steak . Also ordered the 4 piece Broasted chicken. Overdone. Breading was hard greasy. The breast was dry. Broasted potatoes and cheese balls (curds) were good. ****** Mary was good, but not from scratch. Rocky was great and attentive.
