Oh Dennis! Saloon & Charcoal House — Restaurant in Caledonia

Long story short; waited a really long time for our food (50 minutes after we ordered) had to get it to go because our ten month old was ready for bed. Waitress did not apologize at all, came home to find out I had been charged $6.50 for sauteed mushrooms!! The real problem with Oh Dennis is there is not any management there if you have a bad service so you leave feeling like the restaurant does not care about your dining experience.

My wife and I went to Oh Dennis for Valentine's day hoping to enjoy a nice meal. We came early since we have a ten month old. They sat everyone at once so we understood when it took 10 minutes before we even saw our server for drink order and then another 10 to take our order. When we finally ordered we waited for 50 minutes before our food came and at this point we had been there over an hour and our son was ready to go. We understand things happen, tickets get lost, etc. The problem was that not once did our waitress come over and let us know she is aware we are waiting a long time, or just to stop by and check on us. Nothing, we sat there for 50 minutes without knowing what was going on. Meanwhile, watching as table after table that arrived after us receiving their food and eating. By the time we got our food, the tables we had been originally sat with had already paid and left. Our server did not apologize. Also, I ordered sauteed mushrooms with my steak, I know there is usually a charge of 50 cents to a dollar for that but I was shocked when I got home and was charged $6.50 for them.

It is unfortunate, because it is close for us and their food is decent but there are better places that actually care about your dining experience, I will be going to those places...

First the Host didn't want to seat us until our entire party arrived. We were only waiting for two more people, and out of the three of our party that had arrived, two were disabled and standing caused them a lot of pain. There weren't any chairs for them to sit down either. I finally had to plead with the Host to let us sit down at the table and she made it seem like a big favor it was, even though the table was already and waiting for us.

The place is like a dingy dive bar and extremely loud. We couldn't really converse at our table of 5 because you could barely even hear the person next to you.

The alcoholic drinks were very pricey given the lack of ambiance. They started at $8.95 for a low grade glass of wine. I ordered a Merlo which was very low quality and nasty to drink. My mom like the white wine she ordered tho. My friends drinks were just ok, but they were shocked at how pricey they were given it was a dive bar like place.

I ordered the ribs and filet steak that was $28.95. It came on a plastic picnic plate with a woven straw paper plate holder. For that amount of monet give me a real plate please! The rest of our party were very displeased with our lack of real plates too. My husband ordered a steak that was well over $30 and his was on the same plastic plate with straw paper plate holder.

My steak was over cooked and not tender at all. I was very disappointed by my experience as was everyone in my party. My mother and friend didn't like the sauce on the ribs and my friend who had been there before said it definitely wasn't like it had been when she went there before. We all agreed that we are NOT going...

Do you like tasty Baby Back Ribs ? If your answer is " Yes ", then Oh Dennis is THE PLACE TO FIND THEM !!

They say that they open at 5:00 pm. Get there at 4:00. Miss the first seating and you'll wait til past 6 to get your table.

Get there early, get your name on the list for a table, have a drink at the bar, then wait to be seated.

No menu needed, just ask for a FULL RACK OF RIBS.

Meat is so tender it falls off the bone before it gets to your mouth. No chewing required , just a hard swallow does the trick.*

They claim that the Ribs are IMPORTED FROM DENMARK !

If actually true, then that could possibly explain why these ribs are VERY SALTY.

Wisconsin is a long way from Denmark to be getting FRESH meat every day.

A long time ago people figured out that raw meat that is packed in SALT can preserve the meat from spoiling. Salt is also a meat tenderizer.

Order a FULL RACK and a pitcher of water, then GET YOUR EAT ON !!

CHEWING FOOD BEFORE SWALLOWING IS HIGHLY...
