Food was good Service was great We were there at night and the lighting almost made us turn around and leave. It is very bright in there. Later on, they dimmed the lights but it was still very bright. I am sure we are not alone on this. Had a lot of fun, had a very talented guy on the keyboard and singing. We will go back.

Amazing food and family owned down home feel. Missy has done an amazing job to keep this place alive! Fish is great! Prime rib is cooked to perfection. A must try if you've never been!

A place that makes you smile from the yummy. Portion size is awesome and just wow yummy

Awesome fish Friday Dry rub delicious Cod perch walleye Very clean with outdoor patio

Stopped in for lunch - had the 2 pc. fried cod with fire and slaw. Good, but it was a bit watery (could have used 45-60 seconds longer in the fryer). Very tasty overall, s were the fries and slaw. Also ordered the Reuben sandwich - very generous portion of corned beef, and tasty. Want to come back to try the salad bar, as it looked inviting. Service was friendly, and prompt. Definitely want to stop in to try more menu items.

Just passing through and I'm still happy for the experience. What a gem! Now onto the food. I had a patty melt and it was amazing. The hand made patty was smashed to perfection! I love the option of an old school salad bar instead of fries. The salad bar selection was amazing as well. Very fresh.

Sawds always has great food. From burgers to prime rib, it's all excellent. Great service, too. Their breakfast on Saturday and Sunday is especially good.

Hey! I just had the most incredible breakfast at Sawd's Village Inn. Picture this: perfectly sunny side up eggs, crispy bacon that just melts in your mouth, and a juicy ham steak to top it all off. It was absolutely heavenly! You've got to try it!"
