Problem: I have the impression about Orocco Pier that the views it affords customers makes up for many the the shortfall left by the supposedly arty platings of the various dishes served. The table service we experienced was friendly and pretty efficient but price-wise, particularly for drinks, I found it lacking in value for money. The food was generally tasty enough although I've had better ravioli. It'll be a while before I think about going back.

Problem: South Bay Lounge is exactly what I expect of a normal Wisconsin neighborhood tavern, prefect for a casual Friday fish fry. Reasonable prices, decent selection of beers and fish, overall pretty clean and the place has a nice neon glow to it from the signs (inside and out). The selection of fish (and shrimp) is much larger than what you'd think - though be warned they do run out and were crossing off fish from the board when we went about 8pm. The fry has crispy/non-greasy. The coleslaw was good, but too much mayonnaise. Looks like they do a lot of takeout, too. I'm rating four stars, not that it's that special/unique of place, but that it does the midwest neighborhood tavern spot on.

Problem: I have eaten at the Landmark dozens of times over the last ten years and have generally been satisfied. Several weeks ago, a friend of mine and I ate the pasta salad from the salad room and two hours later, we were both very sick. I know it was the pasta salad because that's the only thing that both of us ate. We were both sick and had the same symptoms. I called the restaurant to let the know what had happened and spoke to a female manager. She was extremely rude to me and told me that we probably had the "flu" or something else as nobody else had gotten sick except for the two of us. She did not offer anything to make the situation right and told me that if I didn't want to come back in there, I didn't have to. I wasn't expecting a comp or anything like that; just an apology and a promise to look into the situation would have sufficed. She took NO responsibility for anything and made it seem like I was a neurotic who was wasting her precious time. I have not been back in there since and will not go back; not because of the food but because of the poor way I was treated by the manager. I have been a restaurant manager myself and I know that's no way to treat a customer.

Problem: The beer is as good as they (other reviewers say). My girlfriend and I just wanted a night away from our internship. The beer (she had Hopalicious and Hopticity while I had the Cinnamon Apple Cider) was refreshing and definitely what we were expecting. It was a relatively busy time (between 5-8 we were there) and only one person serving the crowd. And now for the rating: We decided we would like something to snack on. At $12, we thought the meat and cheese would be a decadent little snack (what's Wisconsin known for, but for dairy cows?) We did not know what was in the paper packages because the server just placed it on the table without saying anything. The crackers were stale, the meat was frozen (was it even cooked?) and the cheese "tastes just as bad as it smells" my friend says. We hardly made a dent in these packaged "snacks" We gave it back and tried to get our money back with no luck. Quite the charmer, that server last Thursday. Not going to return seeing as the beer was quite expensive for us as grad students.
