I went here a little after it opened a couple gears back and although the wait was a tad long, it was a decent place to eat. That is no longer the case. I went here for lunch, arriving three minutes to 11am. I walked in and was greeted. I said I wanted a table for one and the hostess, who was chatting with another person, looked uncomfortable and said they didn't open until 11am. I confirmed the time, now two minutes to 11am, and said I would be happy to wait two minutes. A waiter came a moment later and shrugged the hostess off, saying he'd seat me. He explained as we walked to a tiny, cramped table that they were just finishing up their morning training, but he'd be taking care of me. I immediately felt grit and stickiness on the tables surface when I sat down. I rarely touch the surface and don't place my silverware on tables directly, so I ignored this. I asked for a water. Not only was the glass dirty on the outside with black specks, but something was floating in the water. I had to ask for a replacement glass of water. After I ordered, I waited almost 25 minutes for them to make my chicken tacos and side salad. Remember, I was the first person in the door and seated, and by the time I ordered, only one small group had arrived. As I was on my lunch hour, I had to then not only hurry while eating, but ask for the bill right away. The food was bland and the side salad made with things I've never seen. Even the "spicy" salsa the tacos came with was as hot as a mild salsa found in most grocery stores. Horrible all around. The only positive thing was my waiter, who was very kind and prompt. Oh, and must you have painful door handles? Sure, they may look cool, but if I can't get a grip in them without metal cutting into my flesh, I don't even want to enter your business.

New building, love the automated kiosks. Can't wait for all of them to be like this. No offense to McDonald's but the employees need more customer service training at all locations

Only have had dessert and drinks here, but love the place! Staff is fabulous, bartenders are master's at their craft and the desserts are delicious. Highly recommended!

This location is a joke. Sign says opens at 7AM, but in reality, they open whenever the lazy morning employee decides to open the restaurant. I lost count of how many times I've stopped there as late as 7:30AM and the doors are still locked and the drive through turned off, yet I can see at least one employee in the building. Absolutely ridiculous.

Famous for always saying "there is a 15-30 minute wait" and then still screwing up your order... Poorly managed but I guess standards shouldn't be set too high for a Taco Bell

Great service, great food. The people that run the stores in Southwest Wisconsin truly care and don't skimp on even the smallest details. Best pizza place there is!

in all my years, I have never had a bad experience at Chili's. Their menu for the most part stays good and consistent. A small percentage of the menu will change yearly or even seasonally. And of course if you're interested in drinking they have awesome drink deals there as well. I really can't say enough about Chili's as a company from a consumer standpoint and this location is no different from any other location I've ever been to as far as my expectations and them being met.

Always delicious! Great staff, attentive service, atmosphere. Works well with food sensitivities. Bang bang shrimp is a must, fish is fresh and offers special catch of the day.

Horrible service, will barely put anything on, acted cheap and acted like they don't care about their customers. Never coming back

Chick fil a is the best fast food restaurant in the world. They always have the best and most fresh food and their service cannot be topped. If you use their rewards program you get tons of free stuff. You can't find anywhere better than this.

The food was ok but the service was terrible. We were there for 2.5 hours. We never saw our waitress for the first 45 minutes. Between courses we waited forever. Our glasses were empty numerous times. The waitress we did have was super unprofessional and made comments that were way out of line. To top it off she wiped her sweat off from her face onto her hands and then handed us our stuff. It was absolutely disgusting. The manager we did talk to and brought our first two courses was nice and apologetic but due to the terrible service my family will never go there again and left disappointed. For 40-50 dollars a person the service should have been way better then it was.

Went to drive-thru. Cashier got my order wrong twice before I even got to the window. At the window my order was wrong again and then they gave me attitude for pointing it out. The customer service is horrible and then the food wasn't that great either. I will not be frequenting this McDonald's again when there's another one right down the road if you turn right on Washington and Green Bay Rd.

Food is delicious! Margaritas are potent and the homemade guacamole is a must! Plus the litle cookies they bring with your check are fantastic! The staff is always friendly. Place is busy so a wait is to be expected, but I don't mind because it's worth it!

Local, older patrons may remember Brusha’s Pizza. That is what this place is. Excellent lasagna and spaghetti and meatballs. And, of course, the thinnest thin crust pizza anywhere.
