This place is like none other. I went with a group of 8 and everyone one of us were blown away. The experience was intimate, delightful, and the food was incredible. I went after work and truely had this feeling like I was suddenly on vacation. The deli that the owners opened across the street is wonderful as well. Can't... more

On August 10, 2009, I called to change a reservation for 4 into a reservation for 9 for 8:00 PM the same evening. NO PROBLEM!! Especially since the restaurant seats at most 20 people. The additional 5 were teenagers , generally considered to consider pizza and hamburgers the ultimates in culinary delights. The teenagers had the rabbit, chicken and tenderloin... more

This is an unassuming, small restaurant that holds a world-class chef. We were lucky enough to get reservations and enjoyed amazing dishes including a sage chicken with baby vegetables and a walleye with caramelized onions. For dessert there was berry creme brulee, cherry claufouti and French Press coffee. Don't miss an opportunity to visit this restaurant! more

Eric takes the freshest local ingredients and turns them into magic on the plate and on the palate. He and Jen support the local farmers and encourage them to go one step further to grow/make the best possible produce, meats, eggs, cheese, etc. It's always an adventure in fine dining as the menu changes to reflect the best this area... more

Well seeing as how I don't show up for reservations late and waste the time of an amazing Chef who has to accommodate as many people as he can with as small of a restaurant as he has, I can give a better review of this restaurant. The Chef isn't rude, isn't mean, and isn't a jerk in fact he's... more

I have been there eight times. Both the food and service have been exemplary. We have never had a problem and I highly recommend it to anyone. I grew up in New Orleans, have lived on both coasts as well as the south of France. The food at the Cook's House is as good as any restaurant I have been... more
