Koehring's Grand Central House

I swear to you this place is like walking into a diner in 1942 the minute you walk in... you totally forget the world going on outside of here. The gentlemen behind the bar is the owner and he can tell you stories of this restaurants inception.... I don't even know what to say other than wow! The food WAS SERIOUSLY THE BEST I HAVE HAD IN THIS STATE!!! i ordered a steak cooked medium rare which i have never had a perfectly cooked medium rare steak in Wisconsin.... this place did it perfectly..... if you are anywhere close to this restaurant or you want to take somebody special on a first date bring them here! It's a place that you will always want to come back to.... the owners of this place should be very proud.... thank you for a wonderful night

Amazing salad bar with real greens and lots of options like cottage cheese, dried cherries, pickled beets, peas and sunflower seeds. Two kinds of lettuce to choose from. Enjoyed the salad bar more than my grilled chicken breast. Unique dining experience, lots for the eyes to look at and examine while you wait for your food to come. Proprietor was genuine in his questions about the dining experience. Unique bathroom setup. Overall, it was part of an enjoyable evening.

Stopped in after another supper club was packed. Decor is definitely dated but so unique that you should still experience it. It’s like walking into an antique store, so eclectic. So many things to look at and explore. Bartender was super friendly. Drinks are definitely worth the price. Ordered a steak and it was perfectly delicious. Husband order the house special and almost licked his plate..lol. Stopped at the bar for an after dinner grasshopper which was served in a cute decorated wine glass.

wait almost an hour and a half for food. didnt ask about drink refills. i ordered medium, got well done on my filet. i ordered loaded tater tots, got regular plain ones. my boyfriend said his fish was soggy, oil not hot enough. my dads and grandpas' steak was also well done. they ordered medium rare. they also messed up my grandmas order ??????? at least my moms food was good. didnt want to bring up these concerns because they were busy and i didnt want to deal with it. you can be short staffed and still take time on making the food right. if you rush to get it out because you dont want us to wait. i would say its better to have us waiting and get good food. i have worked as a server for years and if i see food is wrong i dont take it out. i make the chefs remake it.

This restaurant is such an eclectic place, you can't help but have you head on a swivel when inside. We've lived 4 blocks from this place for 8 years and just now visited for a belated Valentine's Day dinner, and we were so pleasantly surprised. My husband ordered the baked French onion soup as a starter, which was quite good, and we both ordered the surf & turf for our entrees. He had the lobster and I the shrimp. Our steaks were cooked perfectly and my shrimp was to die for! Our server was good, but we wished he had told us about any specials prior to us ordering. Despite the minor bumps in our visit, we'll still be back!
