What Are The Most Unique Restaurants In Wisconsin?

  • North Country Steak Buffet is the most famous buffet in Wisconsin, and this all-you-can-eat institution has all the favorites you'd expect from a country-style buffet - fried chicken and fish, ribs, sausage, a massive dessert bar, and regular specials. However, what sets it apart from your everyday neighborhood buffet is the grill - going at all times with cooked-to-order steak and burgers. Unlimited beef? Only in Wisconsin!
  • Paul Bunyan's Cook Shanty is another popular all-you-can-eat restaurant, this one in the Wisconsin Dells. The food here is served family-style, with breakfast featuring a massive spread of campfire classics like eggs, pancakes, biscuits and gravy, ham, and fresh donuts. For dinner, its good old country cooking - fried chicken is served daily, with a rotating second option that can include ribs, pot roast, or fish fry. It's all themed to the legend of the lumberjack and his blue ox!
  • Tom's Burned Down Cafe is probably the most unique example of a restaurant rising from the ashes that anyone's ever seen - the beachside bar, which is only accessible by boat, is built out of the ruins of another location that burned down in the 1990s. The owner reportedly came to his burned-out bar, pulled up a trailer, and started serving beer. Today, the place is filled with deck chairs and it's a thriving local institution.
  • Want the most unique meal anywhere in Wisconsin? Try a fish boil. This massive collective meal involves codfish served from a giant boiling kettle and topped with drawn butter. It's usually all-you-can-eat and often paired with barbecue chicken and ribs.
