The Barn Restaurant - Prairie Du Chien

The lightly breaded cod was outstanding. If you enjoy fried fish, you won’t be disappointed. It wasn’t greasy or overcooked at all; it was perfectly flaky and moist. The only thing I missed was malt vinegar for the steak fries. They might have had it available, but I was so caught up in enjoying the fish that I forgot to ask. The waitstaff was friendly and attentive. I don't know when, but I definitely plan to return.

The restaurant features a wonderful salad bar, and the prime rib was outstanding! The atmosphere is really enjoyable, with friendly service. It has an appealing outdoor-themed decor that complements the surrounding area beautifully.

To make matters worse, during our meal, they began cleaning the dining room, which was quite off-putting, particularly having someone vacuum just 20 feet away. I ordered a sirloin steak, but it was served as a hamburger steak, which was never specified on the menu. Additionally, the fish dish cost more than what was listed online, with an extra $3 charge for the all-you-can-eat option. After our long wait, we received just five very small pieces of fish and were never offered the chance to order more. I can't recommend this restaurant based on my experience. The only highlight was the salad bar, but they only allow one visit to it. Overall, I found it to be overrated considering the quality of food and service we received.

We had an awesome server who was very helpful! Clam chowder was a hit with our group as well as the broiled fish dinner. I had the chicken cordon Bleu and it was fabulous. Highly recommend but call for reservations they get very busy.

We went on a Friday night and it seemed busy. The hostess asked if we had reservations.....oops. First time there and didn't know we needed them. She directed us to the first come first serve area. We sat for 15 minutes and a table opened up. We were greeted by a wonderful young waitress, Darian (spelling? , A very pleasant happy person. In no time we had our drinks and our order placed and we're directed to the self serve salad bar. Plentiful and tasty! In a timely manner we had our fish. Hey, it's Friday night! The food was good too, although I hoped for more, I had plenty to eat. Overall a very positive experience! I would suggest reservations on a busy night!
