  Stacey and Ricky took some time out of cleaning the BBQ pit to teach me and my fiancee Euchre. Great folk, great food. Catch the chicken and the prime rib if you can.

  Love this place! Great destination from Madison on the bike. Stop in for a home cooked chicken dinner during the summer on Sunday! Just make sure to call ahead and reserve yours!

  The other reviews seems to be spot on regarding this gem in the middle of somewhere. I go here for their excellent prime rib dinner on Saturdays after a good paddle or trout fishing excursion on the Kickapoo River or its tributaries. The Prime Rib is slightly cheaper than it would be in a major city, and be sure not to go overboard! The smallest cut they serve is still huge, and I rarely see anyone actually finish the bigger cuts. They don't expect it to be so big and/or don't believe me when I warn them. They have a salad bar that comes with the prime rib which includes some pasta salads, fruits, and desserts (which you can get for $5 by itself). Add a roll and choice of potato (the cheesy potatoes are excellent if available) and you have a huge meal. They start serving the prime rib at 5pm on Saturdays until it is exhausted. I hear the Sunday chicken is great, but I have not had it so far. The Friday Fish Fry is also excellent - good portions for a reasonable price. About the only thing that prevents perfection is that they do not have soft drinks on tap - you can only get them by the can.
  
  Lastly, drinks are usually strong and reasonably priced, so saddle up to the bar after canoeing or kayaking all day. No need to dress up, as they are used to big paddling groups coming in right off the water (you should have at least dunked yourself or swam toward the end of the paddle so you don't stink up the place anyway!).
