Signatures Restaurant

The grill is our favorite. Friendly, cheerful service. Menu is classic but updated. Nice to be next to the fireplace on a winter evening - except there's a giant screen tv there also which is a bit annoying.

View-outstanding Food -outstanding Black cherry old fashioned -outstanding plus as extensive wine and cocktail menu. Lamb shank pleased our table along with the butternut squash pasta very delicious and beautifully presented. Catching up with friends they were kind enough to let us linger at our table without rushing

Bad. Just bad. I wish I read the yelp reviews before dining here. EXCEPT OUR WAITER MIKAH- he was incredible.. deserves a raise for just being a great human. Two main problems: incredibly unprofessional staff- mainly the bartender by the name of either Joe or Jon.. when I asked another staff member his name she said she did not know but would check and when she came back she asked why- I explained I over heard him talking about how bad THEIR products were that I had just ordered- and she gave me a different name then another staff member did. The bartender continued and consistently spoke negatively about various other staff members as well.Second reason was the food is just looks. It looked like it should taste what you are paying for but in reality you are eating subpar cuts of meat, over salted vegetables, and mediocre appetizers. For the price and the presentation- I expect better. My fiancé had a 16 oz ribeye and actually could eat about 6 oz because of cut. Will never be going back but has beautiful landscape.

Our experience was extremely poor. We waited for 25 minutes before our server approached us and another 15 minutes for the first drink. Two people at our table had requested soup rather than salad and it was never delivered. Apparently they ran out of soup and had to make more. When we requested a refill of soda, the soda fountain needed to be refilled to which we had to remind them 15 minutes later that we were still waiting for a refill. The main course was mediocre at best. Much of the time, a few wait staff were standing around, not doing much. It is certainly understandable when places are short on staff, but this definitely was not the situation. An extremely disappointing experience for $35 a plate.

Sorry folks Signatures is not the establishment it once was. I am tired of the Covid excuse. The menu has been reduced and the variety is minimal. Why does it take 15-20 minutes to get water? 40 minutes to take the order and another 80 minutes to get your food? Stay away from this restaurant and golf course. When they allow sixsomes to tee off and only 4 have clubs it is time Winonas to go to other area golf courses.

I just wrote a review and gave a ONE STAR review of our experience, and found that it showed up as a 4 1/2 star review, and I cannot get back in to change it. We waited 45 minutes, and did not even have our drink order and appetizer by then, and left.

I tried Signatures a few years ago. Very high end place -- or at least that is what they hope to be. I got the equivalent of a 7 course meal. I was told it would showcase a hefty array of Signature's offerings and I would love all of it. It was not very good and it was expensive as hell.My waitress was very snooty. I have never gotten the opportunity to appropriately ever label someone this way, but she certainly fit the bill. The initial offering was a salad. It was fair sized for a side salad, but a ton of lettuce. I can buy better side salads at the grocery store in a bag for $2.50. I made the mistake of asking my waitress if they served 1000 island dressing. She said in the most condescending way, "We don't SERVE 1000 island here." Like peasants choose 1000 island or something. She told me they had ranch, italian, and a vinegarette (I forget what kind of vinegarette). I told her no thank you and nibbled on a little lettuce before I had her take it away. That was a waste. Oh, and how is RANCH suddenly so high class and 1000 island isn't? Maybe I missed something not eating in the finest of circles.Most of the other "courses" were really very small items that you aren't really supposed to eat. For example, I was brought a very small scoop of what looked like a hard ice cream. It was good. Had an orange sorbet taste, but it was unusually thick. I made the mistake again of asking what it was. I was told it was a palette cleanser. It was taken from me before I finished it because -- like I said -- you aren't supposed to actually eat it. You get some of the flavor of it and then they take it from you. I guess it helps get the taste of the food you just ate -- does that mean they admit the previous course tasted bad?The main course had 4 options. I was not enamored with any of them. I don't recall the other 3, but the one I selected was a steak with a mushroom sauce. I'm pretty particular about mushrooms, so I requested it on the side or not to have it at all. I was snootily (if that is a word) informed that the chef has selected a particular way of creating his/her food and I shouldn't alter it. It came to me as the chef designed it. Not surprising, it was awful.The mushroom sauce almost completely covered the steak. And why do they put steak on top of things, like veggies or mashed potatoes? The plate is big enough to accommodate all of the food separately so the mushroom sauce isn't on the accompanying items. Unfortunately, the mushrooms were either bad or cooked bad. They had a soured gravy taste to them and it was awful. Since it was all over the food, it tainted pretty much the entire dish. I was able to nibble some parts of the steak. I prefer my steak dead (yeah, I know that isn't how it should be cooked) and this was so pink that it was practically mooing. I am not sure why PETA hasn't shown up because this animal was served alive.For the ridiculous price this place charges, it isn't anywhere near worth it. The servers are condescending and treat you like a moron for not knowing about their version of "fine dining." Making terrible food, being inflexible on how to prepare it, trying to make your customers feel dumb, and charging high prices does NOT constitute "fine dining." It does, however, constititute a "bad restaurant" and that is what Signatures is.

The new menu items and promotions are definitely appreciated. It seems like the restaurant is busier and going in the right direction. While the outdoor seating weather is waning when outdoor seating is open next year they need to manage the bugs better. Biting nats, mosquitoes, bees and flies need to be eradicated.

We were able to squeeze in a visit to Signatures while on a recent trip in Winona. Many people we talked with spoke very highly of Signatures dinner menu. We were short on time so we ended up eating there over the lunch hour with the lunch menu.One of the great things about Signatures is the wonderful view especially with our seats situated next to the window. The view was very enjoyable even being a winter day seeing out over the golf course and the beautiful bluffs of the area. We did a quick sample tasting of the menu including fried pickles, the soup of the day, siracha chicken sandwich and pot pie. Of those choices, we thought the pot pie was the best of our choices with great flavor and a very nice crust.Overall, the food was good to very good for this visit and we look forward to going back to test out the dinner menu that so many people rave about.

Weak Manhattan. Ordered up, got rocks. Decent wedge salad. Complete failure on cooking a rare steak. #2 was 1/3 the size and well done. They tried a third time but I passed. As you should with this restaurant. It used to be exceptional.
