Mark's East Side

Another great visit to Mark's East Side. We had 6:30 reservations, but they were able to seat us about 6:10. We had a group of 6 tonight. The bar was very crowded when we arrived, but we did not have to wait long for a beverage. The Mahi-mahi was quite delicious. It was served in a bed of wild rice with mango salsa and fresh asparagus. This paired so very nicely. Even with the large group, our food came out in a timely manner. Our server, Carly was very attentive. She did a great job making sure beverages from the bar were kept fresh. Dessert for myself was a grasshopper. It was a bit larger than I expected. Unfortunately, after such an amazing dinner, I could not finish mine. My husband brought home a wonderful German chocolate cheesecake. I would have never been able to eat it all....but in my refrigerator, I feel I may fit in a bite or two. The dessert menu is quite extensive, so leave room for the tasty treats.

We love this place. Great bartenders mixing great drinks. Great atmosphere. Steaks are delicious. My favorite is the German entrees. Especially the Jagerschnitzel with Spatzel and the mushroom gravey.

This our go to supper club! The decor is charmingly dated and service is amazing! However the food is definitely what brings us back time and time again. Great selection and amazing daily special menu. You need to try this place!!!

Hot bacon dressing for your salad, an aquarium built into the bar, and Wisconsin style old fashioned cocktails culminate the perfect supper club. This German style supper club had some delicious takes. Our favorites were the scotch eggs, schnitzels, and French onion soup.

Tried Marks for the first time. Got the broiled haddock and 6 oz steak filet. The onion soup is good. The salad is good as well. The haddock was okay but nothing special. Not a lot of seasoning so I liked that as it wasn't super salty. The steak was burnt on one side and the flavor wasn't there due to it. Some A1 helped. The service was good. They did take $15 off for the burnt steak which is nice but honestly I won't be rushing back. The prices are a little high which is fine for a meal that matches. It just wasn't what I would have expected for the price.

The food was amazing. It was very nostalgic to go to the restaurant as I grew up in the neighborhood. My mom used to work at this restaurant 60 years ago. I had all you can eat fish with fries. The fish was good. The fries were mediocre. I had the scotch Bavarian eggs for an appetizer they were great. The beet salad was excellent. Highly recommended. Unfortunately the service was slightly below mediocre. I'm not used to the waitress just dumping the food and very rarely visiting us. The restaurant would be nicer if they could somehow add outdoor seating but it was nice inside your typical restaurant. Nothing special.

So glad this place was recommended to us several months ago. We live in Green Bay, but it's an easy enough drive for this to now be our favorite restaurant. Service is super-friendly and the food is beyond compare, north of Milwaukee. I was tired of having to go all the way there when I wanted great German food (the place in Lena doesnt have sauerbraten and they no longer offer purple cabbage). I never get appetizers, but I do here. The sauerkraut balls were a hit, and last night I tried the Bavarian Scotch egg, and wow! Was that tasty!So far I have only ordered German entrees, and my hubby has stuck with the liver and onions. Not once have we gotten one item or course that was less than ideal. Even if not everyone in your party likes German cuisine, this is still a great restaurant option as they have a great variety to offer including steaks, seafood, chicken dishes and sandwiches. I have to admit to being a bit picky about sauces I'm served, but I'm certainly not complaining about any I've been served here. Everything is always spot-on! What keeps us stumped is how they can provide the best decor, best service, and best food at such affordable prices.Go. Just go. You'll love it. You can thank me later.

I'm sad to rate this one star as the food has always been exceptional..BUT I, and many others, have repeatedly asked for the light bulb lighting the entrance to be replaced. Last week when we ate there again I asked the hostess again to please relay the message about the unsafe lighting. Her reply was "we give the owner this message frequently but nothing changes". The owners lack of concern about his customers safety doesn't seem to be due to financial issues, as his business is booming. Apparently he just doesn't give a hoot about our safety. VERY SAD!

OMGosh!!! I'm not necessarily a salad person but some friends lifted me some Marks Eastside Bacon Salad Dressing and oh my gosh!!! I got some baby spinach, sliced some onion, added a hard boiled egg and topped it off with Mark's Bacon Dressing! Best Salad I've ever had in my life!!! It's gone and I live in Las Vegas. (I used to live in Appleton). I want more!!!

I have eaten here for years. Classic supper club fare, easy going. Packer games, old fashions, and fried Perch. Yum!
