Ella's Public House

"(Edit) At least the food was taken off of our bill. I love the look of the place and the ambiance, and I really tried hard to like it... Be careful ordering fattier steaks (ribeye) or burgers. They use an infrared grill that can smoke up and give smoky and oily off flavors akin to the taste of lighter fluid. Staff said there was nothing wrong with the grill, and told us that it was probably us smelling the gas from the fireplace. Thank you for the help owner in the comments to understand what happened."

"The staff is friendly, it is super clean, and our food came out within 10 minutes of ordering, with the dining room full. We had the fish fry and it was great. Will definitely come back."

"Went to Ellas for the first time this evening with my partner. Got right in and seated at a lovely table near the window and in view of the fireplace. Server was very prompt, friendly and attentive. Food presentation was great! We ordered the cauliflower wings app as well as the steak bites, and for entrees went for a porterhouse for them and fried chicken for myself. The apps and sides were fantastic! My wings were perfect and crunchy and the parm garlic sauce was lovely. Their steak bites were juicy and flavorful and the cornbread it came with was great as well. The tomato soup was also flavorful and clearly made fresh. The entrees were the only disappointment- his steak was rather bland aside from the horseradish sauce he ordered with it, and my fried chicken was overdone and extremely greasy. Our sides however were amazing! We both got garlic mash, which was creamy and flavorful, and I had the mac n cheese, which was rich and delicious. Overall, a good experience , and we were happy to have supported a local business."

"Havent been in this building for over 30 years. Love what has been done to it. Was greeted at the door as we walked in and seated at a high top. Got our drinks and app in a timely fashion. All 4 of us ordered burgers. They were cooked as requested. Had the cowboy burger, pig mac, and the 2 of the ella burger. All were delicious. I will be back the next time we are through Wisconsin."

"Ella’s is an unexpected gem. The cheese curds are the best curds in WI - state fair style with a delicious homemade ranch. The short rib sliders are a must, absolutely fantastic. French onion soup was hot, crust stayed crispy while the bread soaked up the flavorful soup, with the perfect amount of melty cheese. Steak Diane was smothered in a cream sauce. Only thing that was a bit negative was the size of the medallions, they were very thin and a bit fatty, but still tender and melt in your mouth. Green beans were cooked to perfection. Will definitely be back!"
