In Short – Baby boomers on double dates and families with teens wait in line for this standout eatery, a sibling of the local Axel's dynasty. The shadowy dining room has a Southwestern theme. Chocolate-colored walls, a black ceiling and wall sconces make it smolder, but a tumbleweed chandelier and hanging bull sculpture lighten the mood. Wood-fire pizzas, like the Cajun chicken, are popular starters. Entrees include a tender prime rib and the signature pan-fried walleye.
Editor's Tips
- Know Before You Go:
- You can get pizza up to an hour after the kitchen closes and the bar is open until 1am.

Unhappy

Crappy bar service. If you are not very patient and very quiet, the bartenders will not serve you at all.

Can you believe they let people SMOKE in they're so called family friendly restaurant.
I had the pleasure of ordering their all you can eat crab legs, this was a BIG mistake. The first order was a full order, but it was medium warm and the legs were soggy as if they had been cooking all day long, there was no crispness to any of the legs and the meat, when there was meat, was stringy. My second order they brought out contained just two portions of legs, again warm, soggy, and stringy. I ordered a third helping hoping the first two were just flukes, but this time I only got one portion of legs. Remember when I say portion I mean just the five legs that come together. When the waitress walked by (she was good) she said, "is that all you got, I am going to order you another order, I am sorry." I thought this fourth order would be better, nope, I received just one more portion of warm, soggy, and stringy crab legs.
I can't believe I actually had to pay for this lousy meal. I should request a refund.
***This place is a complete RIP OFF !!!***
- Pros: None
- Cons: Food, Price
