Backwoods Grill - Burt

Love this place! We've been here several times for bar nights but just came here for the first time for dinner a few weekends ago.

We had heard good things so decided to give it a try on a Friday night. They were quite busy and we had about a 15 minute wait for a table for 4. Here is what we liked: Seating was available at the bar, there just wasn't 4 available. So the wait could have been shorter if it was just the two of us like normal. Able to order drinks at the bar for our wait in line. Very reasonable drink prices. Everyone we encountered in the service team was friendly. The mozzarella sticks were good, a nice gooey cheese and flavorful breading cooked crisp. We ordered the dry rub cod 2pc dinner and the cod was cooked perfect, and just tasty. Also tried the walleye beer battered fish dinner and it was large pieces and cooked crisp and just as tasty. Getting extra tartar sauce was a breeze, also like tartar sauce. Call me weird, but coleslaw can make or break a fish dinner. Theirs was chilled and crisp, not soggy and a little sweet. Very good. Appreciate the fries were hot. The cheeseburger was a solid good. What could of been better: Pretzels and cheese are a must if a restaurant has it on their app menu. These pretzels were cute little bites but nothing special. However the cheese dip was cold, just hard to dip into cold cheese and more of a fan of a warm cheese for my pretzels. While the fries were hot, they needed salt or a seasoning. The ladies room was having issues, it happens. However once it was brought to the staffs attention, it wasn't to the end of our meal they indicated they had another on the other side of the building. It was a busy Friday night, but service was slow. Long waits in between ordering, getting appetizers then finally dinner. Overall, the food was good and prices are quite reasonable. We want to come back and try another night and see how the service is and try a few other dishes. They are the beaten path but worth the drive to try again.

First time here but live in the area. Great burger and fries and fish dinner. Cold beer. Busier Saturday evening and they were short staffed but did a really good job! Will be back

Awesome food!! Great service!! Country bar feel! Live near here and visit them often!!

Nothing fancy, just good food and decent prices. Do yourself a favor and stop in and try the chicken tenders.
