Mama’s Supper Club- 50 years + of family ownership means the Chiolino family really knows good Italian food. We’ve been coming to Mama’s for decades. Angie was here when she was 7 days old! Excellent pizza, pasta dishes, and fantastic views of enchanting Curtis Lake. Off season, try the Italian buffet – fantastic. And, in the summer, let the kids feed the fish with a few morsels of bread down at the lake shore after supper.(Minocqua)

Paul Bunyan’s Cook Shanty- Open summers only, the Tonne family has operated this famous restaurant for over 45 years. Same fine menu and service in Wis. Dells too. Known far and wide for lumberjack style breakfasts with home made buttermilk donuts (still warm!) and heaping platters of eggs, pancakes …all the trimmings. But, try them for dinner too! Wonderful all-you-can-eat family style in a fun lodge setting. Kid endorsed. Gift shop.

Polecat and Lace- Peter Jr. tended bar here for several summers during his college career. I’ve been dining with the Pitzo family for many years. Great luncheon items, like the Ultimate sandwich, baked French onion soup, crispy salads. Fine dinners, with daily specials. And, you must try a strawberry schaum torte. Full bar. Downtown.(Minocqua)

Tasty Take & Bake Pizza - Jack and Esther Moulton sold their motel, and are now in the Italian restaurant business. They make a great pizza, just the way you like – and YOU take it home and bake it up hot and fresh. Lunch slices available cooked and ready-to-eat there.

Ryden's Lakeside- Lunch with Team Rondello after the triumphant return of Lauren and Eddie THEN from their Hawaiian honeymoon. The place was rockin' on a lovely July afternoon. Boats at the pier, cold elixirs served at the outdoor tables. We dined inside (only tables left!) and had a fun lunch. BBQ Rib basket for me with a cold Corona. Wish they had some lighter selections and Tex/Mex too. Can you say fajita, or taco? Service was OK. Big hit is location here; a summertime must.

Rusty Putter- I have wanted to dine here for a while, so friends and customers Roy and Julianne Karow invited us out for a fine dinner recently. The place was jumpin'! Service was great; food was good. The company was the best. Not the culinary mecca that I'd expected from the comments around town, but worthy of your time and appetite. We'll be back to try different entrees.
