   Graycie was our server and she was excellent. I had the walleye and it was very tasty with great presentation. Very pleased with food and service.

   They are really trying to be a nice upscale restaurant……but the waite staff lacks; no mention of specials, not taking the ladies order first, way too long between salad and main course. And the place was 25% full and even with reservations we waited 20 to be asked if we wanted a drink. The filet was market price, but low quality. Overall a disappointing meal. Too bad, I’m local & had high hopes.

   Beautiful setting. All four had Walleye dinners and the fish was perfectly prepared. We always meet friends here when we want to have a conversation, because the noise levels are managed with fabrics and a glass divider between dining and the bar.

   We have been going to the Hiedel House for over 55 years. It’s an experience that gets better with every visit.

   We chose to eat at Oakwood because Green Lake is halfway between us and another couple. As a resort town, Green Lake is quiet during the winter so the restaurant wasn't busy on a Friday night. We ordered shrimp havarti and potato skins for appetizers, and ribeyes, beef bourguignon, and gnocchi as entrees. The shrimp havarti was delicious and the steaks were large and cooked perfectly. The only complaint is that the potato skins were just that: potato skins, like large not quite done potato chips. We expected them to have toppings like cheese but there was nothing on them.

   Wonderful evening with visiting friends. We sat by the windows and looked out on the lake as we had our appetizers and meals.

    The view and dining room were wonderful, as was the service. The food was good but not outstanding, yet. I think it will continue to improve. The Salmon was cooked very nicely but the walleye was bland and needed seasoning. The cheesy Polenta cake was fabulous. I could have had it for dessert. The wine list was nice and well-priced. All in all, I would go back and try other dishes.
