- SSteveWisconsin •1 review5.0Dined 2 days agoWe come back a couple times a year or two that side of the state just for this restaurant. The ambience. We’ve always had great service from the staff. We celebrated two birthdays tonight. The waiter went out of his way to make it a very special night for us and we appreciate that! At some point once the night time lights came on outside there’s a flood light that Cheyenne straight into the restaurant that you really cannot escape and it’s very annoying to the patrons in the restaurant because everybody has to shift around their table or move tables because it’s so bright. I would hope that there must be a way to Move that light at least while the restaurant is open for dinner and then turn it back on again afterwards.More infoFratellos Riverfront RestaurantPrice: Expensive• American• Appleton•4.7

- MMaryWisconsin •4 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoThank you to our server Debbie, who managed our experience like the professional she is! We arrived 10 minutes late related to the new fallen snow and slippery conditions. We informed Debbie that we had theater tickets for 7:30pm. She showed us to a wonderful table for two and took our drink order. The salads followed quickly and were served with some superb rolls from a local bakery. The New York strip was prepared just as we like, medium rare, every bite was tasty! The sides were delicious as well. It was a special treat for our pre-theater meal.More infoVince Lombardi's SteakhousePrice: Very Expensive• Steakhouse• Appleton•4.6

Discover Appleton
Appleton, Wisconsin, may have begun as a simple fur-trading post, but this riverfront city has blossomed into an exciting dining adventure. Much like its roots where the trade routes brought people together, you can find an exciting mix of cuisines here, including German, Greek, Mexican, and Italian. Typical of Wisconsin cuisine, you'll love the fish fries available in Appleton, but be prepared as many places have a long wait for this popular Friday night fare. Farm-fresh eggs, locally-sourced vegetables, and grass-fed beef are prevalent across the landscape of this culinary scene. It's also easy to find finely crafted local brews paired with Wisconsin white cheese curds for a fun evening out. To reminisce about days gone by, several restaurants in Appleton offer Prohibition era drinks paired with organic, non-GMO food.
