The Boathouse

"The lure salad and mushroom soup were great. The service was amazing, and the atmosphere was inviting with a great view of the lake. It's on the pricier side but worth it."

"First-time customer. The place has a beautiful view of the lake. We wentbat lunch time in a Saturday. We did not wait long for our food, but a little longer for drinks and refills. We were a bit shocked that tap drinks were $7. It's a bit pricey compared to other establishments in the Northwoods. We were going for my birthday and heard they had good steak. Unfortunately, steak was not on the menu unless you wanted it on a bun. So I went with it. I was not impressed with the texture of slimy fat and soggy bun in the same bite. My hubby had a chicken sandwich and loved it. He would order it again. Fries were fresh and tasty. The decor was nice and the bar was amazing architecture. Used the bathroom. It was pretty clean.. until you look at the disgusting garbage can. It's one of those you have to push the lid in to drop your garbage. I just washed my hands!"

"On a Wednesday afternoon, at 2pm, if you don’t want fast food, there’s not much to choose from in Minocqua. This was a last minute decision, seen the building and swung in. Upon first impression, they are not very handicapped accessible. I literally needed assistance to cross the parking lot and up the stairs. If you were in a wheelchair, there’s not a chance that you could get in. The game’s downstairs definitely got my child’s attention, the view caught mine. The food was mid. Pretty basic. The best thing I tasted was the tarter sauce. Asked for crab cakes for the appetizer and they never showed up."

"Thursday night we came here for dinner. We made sure to get here early because last summer when we came, it was booked several hours out for a table of seven for us. We had a short wait. I will say, as someone I love is a recovering alcoholic, you had ABSOLUTELY NO N/A beers on your menu whatsoever. Please consider getting N/A options for those that don’t drink soda and or alcohol. Also, my other sort of complaint is when you have a large party like us, consider giving two cheese platters rather than one to a group of seven. If we came in as a party of two, we would have gotten the same cheese spread and bread. We had to ration out a tiny 7 inch piece of bread with seven of us as well as a small serving of cheese spread with a large basket of crackers. I am so glad I ordered my steak rare. It came out medium rare but it was DELICIOUS! I could have cut my peppered tenderloin with a butter knife it was that tender. I did laugh though when it came out, knowing a 6 oz steak isn’t that big, but my baked potato was bigger than my steak. It looked like a mini football on my plate. Server was attentive. Was a little dark where we were sitting which was hard with a baby but no other complaints!"
