I love this Bar! They have a great menu with a lot of different choices; from salads, burgars, awesome appetizers, they also have great hand made pizzas! There are great weekly specials like Mondays are $1 1/4 lb burgers, $3 Taco Tuesdays, .60 cent Wing Wed, which I have to say are some of the best wings I have ever had (and trust me I am not the only one who will tell you so!), $15 Pizza and Pitcher on Thur, Fish Fry on Fridays, Steak Sanwiches on Sat, and BOGO 1/2 off appetizers on sundays!
And not only do they have great daily food specials, but also awesome daily drink specials! One of their rail bloody mary's on sundays are only $4! They are huge and come with yummy garnishes :-)
I love their fish fry as well, and the gentleman's comment below is incorrect, they do not serve cod and have not for about 5 years. They serve hand battered haddock as their all you can eat special, but they also serve broiled haddock, pan fried walleye, and lake perch (which are not all you can eat)! But you get generous portions for the price and Sue's homemade American Potato Salad is to die for! I would never say that the fish is dry, they make everything to order. It is not made and left out until someone orders it. One of the things that I love about this fish fry is that the fish is lightly breaded/battered. I think that fish that are over-battered/breaded can ruin a good fish fry! You go to eat fish not breading!
I think service is great, yes sometimes there might only be one bartender that is both bartending and waitressing, or both a bartender and a waitress, but the staff is enthusiastic and ready to serve anyone who comes through their doors! I have been coming to this bar for years and love every second I spend there!
It is a fun place to be in the summer with its location on the water, they even have a dock on Big Arb. that you can park your boat so you can come in or sit on their nice cool deck! They host great events all throughout the summer like the milk jug regatta; which is a northwoods must to see if you are in the area!! And in the winter, being just off of the snowmobile trail, they are a nice stop to warm up, get some hot chocolate and a bite to eat!
I have always recommended this bar to friends, and when they visit we always make at least one stop into slo's for food, drinks, and fun! If you need more info, check out...
Read moreFor today’s fish fry , I will give it low ratings, The waitress was one of the worst, the usual waitresses were off , and SLOs sure missed them , They were busy tonight, we understand that , but finally got seated , and no waitress waited came to us for at least 15 minutes, and that was after we asked the hostess, than we saw waitresses arguing about who takes our table , when she did come she was extremely unpleasant, sorry we didn’t leave than , she took our order , and we waited and waited for our food , than we saw two tables that came in after us get served, we saw another waitress point to our table and finally realized our problem ,The bartender was helping , and she was great , and apologized for the wait , Finally our food came and two of our orders were wrong , most of our food was not hot ,like it usually comes form SLO’s, Mary had the orders wrong also, I know what we ordered , and she was not pleasant to deal with, This was the first bad experience here, if we ever walk in again we will leave if this waitress...
Read more1st time ever there 3 of us went for the Smelt all you can eat. Unfortunately, it was terrible. Not one of us could eat it. The fish was barely battered and limp not Krispy in a sense of the word. And extremely fishy tasting. We asked for new ones Krispy. And they took our old ones and threw them back in the fryer we were told. Needless to say, it didn't make a difference it was just terrible. We didn't eat any of it. The waitress was very aware that nothing was taken off the bill. The sad part to get home the animals wouldn't eat it either. 2 dogs and cats and neither would touch it. I Wouldn't recommend going for the food at all. It was a waste of money, time, and driving. Sorry, I wish I could have given a better review. I don't like leaving bad reviews. I wish I could have given a nicer one. But that wasn't our experience,...
