This restaurant is moving in the right direction!! After fairly recently being remodeled and, seemingly, restructured, they have major potential to become the best fine dining in the Northwoods. Chef Maja and her team have really kicked things ...
up a notch and everything is done to a very high level of perfection. This place is no longer the out-dated definition of a Midwest Supper club.
Upon pulling up to the property, it is clear to see that the building and location are beautiful. Nestled upon a hill overlooking the lake, it sets the tone for a relaxing night in a fantastic location.
You walk through the doors to see nicely decorated interior and Brenda standing there waiting to greet you. She can seemingly handle your every need.
We tend to make our way to the bar and try to grab our normal spots if possible. They have many fine spirits, wines, and craft cocktails to choose from. If you are unsure, the bar tenders can happily offer you some great recommendations. They have a seasonally changing drink menu as well, so there's always something for everyone.
Once your table is ready, you are seated either in the bar area room or in the dining room. You may request either one when you first speak with Brenda if you please. We tend to sit in the dining room for a calm and quiet atmosphere so we can fully enjoy the fantastic food that is yet to come.
Once seated, you can look over the menus and see what is to your liking. The menu changes with the seasons so it always leaves you looking forward to the next. It's not a very large menu but that just allows the kitchen to focus on giving you the best possible quality foods without having to be spread out into a million different items.
The food is absolutely phenomenal. We have yet to find a dish that we haven't liked. There's no simpler way to put it. Each new dish we have tried just blows us away. We had dinner there last night for New Year's Eve and had Steak Tartare and Lobster Bisque for our appetizers and both were, by far, the best we've ever had. We really enjoy the specials they have from time to time as well.
We thoroughly enjoy the events they host as well. Definitely looking forward to seeing where this place is headed.

This is a hidden gem in the north woods of Wisconsin. Bootleggers’s offers elevated food in an area of Wisconsin that otherwise only serves bar food. It has the ambiance of a restaurant in a large city. It is warm and inviting. They have a seas...
onal cocktail menu, but the bartender can create any cocktail you desire. We started with the mushroom crostini. It came with 4 pieces. The dominant flavor was the creamy LeClare goat cheese. It was delicious and I would order it again. We then had the baked French onion soup served with warm bread and a spectacular herbed butter. The soup was smothered in Gruyère cheese. Underneath was a delicious beef broth with caramelized onions and a baguette. It was perfectly flavored. Not too salty as some French onion soup can be. The entrees we sampled were the Wisco Cherry Pork and the Norwegian Salmon. Both were delicious, but the pork dish was the stand out. The pork tenderloin was so tender you didn’t need a knife to cut it. The cherry jus was not over powering at all. It helped to balance the flavors. The salmon has a crusted horseradish topping. It also was not over powering, but provided a nice balance, especially with the creamed brown butter white bean puree it was served on. Both dishes also were served with roasted Brussels sprouts. The bartender suggested wines that paired perfectly with each entree. We added a “surf” to our meal with trio of scallops. They were cooked perfectly with a seared top and tender. I would add them to any entree. The service was attentive and efficient. They offered suggestions and gave detailed descriptions. If you are looking for an upscale restaurant, look no further. We will be back!

We went here for my 80th birthday. The ambience and decor is wonderful, probably the nicest in the north woods. My steak, ordered medium rare was well done. It was tender. The mashed potatoes were cold and tasted like instant. My son's hamburge...
r was almost raw, he sent it back. My daughter's steak was cooked as ordered, tasty and tender. We waited 90 minutes after ordering to get our food. The dining room was not full so it shouldn't have taken so long. The waitress tried her best, she wasn't at fault. The food is average but the prices are well above average. Next time we'll stick with the Pine Tree, true and tried.
