"Twar was waiting a bit... the place was with people this morning. But man, it was worth it. When I said that a place was my favorite breakfast in the past, I'm sorry, but it's just because I haven't eaten here yet. I had my usual cookies and Gravy, two eggs sunny side up with coffee and one side of Jalapeno-Bacon... but this order was anything but usual. It turned me into a breakfast type is what it did. The man was delicious. Someone in the kitchen knows what they do (in contrast to the packers against the Vikings opened for their season this afternoon). My daughter had a standard aid of eggs, toast, hash browns and sausage, while her college roommates enjoyed a healthy order of the stacked French toast. We'll be back here, regardless of the waiting time. It was worth it. I'll tell you, friend... wait for it. Just wait for her!!!"

"My husband and I wanted to try something new for his birthday dinner, and this was rated very highly. Walking into the restaurant was very elegant and a high class feel. We were seated very quickly, it was a bit late-an hour or so before seating ended- but we were still greeted with pleasure. Our waiter was overall fantastic in every way. I asked him what his recommendation was on a sweet wine, he knew right away which one. The wine he chose ended up being wonderful! We got the cheese platter. It exceeded our expectations with the fresh ingredients they pair the cheeses with. Husband ordered the shrimp and scallop day boat, he loved it. I ordered the tenderloin filet- medium rare. It literally was like cutting through butter and melted in my mouth. Perfect sear on the outside with bold seasoning. We also ordered the Mac and 5 cheese, best mac n cheese ive ever had! The salad, while im not a fan of salad, was remarkable! White wine vinagrette paired nicely with the salad. It was light and refreshing! Overall this is the best restaurant I have ever been to and it was the best experience, thank to our waiter!"

"We have been here for the last two New Year's Eves and we had a fabulous meal each time. This year, I enjoyed the London broil and my fiance had the prime rib. The steak melts in your mouth and the portions are quite generous. The salted caramel martinis are like dessert in a glass! It's a little too expensive for us to enjoy more frequently but it's perfect for special occasions."

"I was extremely disappointed with my experience at this restaurant. I have dined here a few times before and the service and food were always outstanding. However, this time was a complete letdown. We made a reservation after a recommendation from the UW La Crosse department, but when we arrived, they had forgotten to write it down. We were seated at a dirty table in the bar area, and the overall cleanliness of the floors and bathrooms was subpar. It took 35 minutes for our drinks to arrive, and our food took 1.5 hours to be served. When it finally arrived, the food was cold and the baked carrots were undercooked. I felt sorry for our waitress who was doing her best to rectify the situation, but the bartender was extremely rude. Two men who were seated behind us even left after he failed to make their drinks. One of the girls working there had to step in and make the drinks herself. To top it off, another girl behind the bar was seen vaping. This experience was a major disappointment and I will not be returning."

"Buzzard Billy's came recommended by the bartender at Pearl Street Brewery just up the road and boy did she know what she was talking about! From the time we walked in the door to the time we walked back out the door, the experience was top notch! Service was genuine, friendly and welcoming and the food was out of this world delicious!! Hubby had the Cajun Combo with the addition of dirty rice and he was blown away by all the flavors and portions! We've been to Louisiana and didn't have food this good, these folks totally know what they're doing! I had the Ca C'est Bon (Saw-Say-Bon) and I swear it was the best meal I've ever had in my life! The Cajun catfish is phenomenal and the sauce that the fried potatoes soak in is worthy of awards! The bread is a slice of heaven, all buttery and crunchy, fresh and soft but that corn... wow... what's with that corn... so good!! There are two other locations of Buzzard Billy's, both on our travel map journey if we're ever in the area. I sure hope we get back to this location some day because I will forever crave this meal!"
