nines at the River ClubNew menu!The new menu started on Tuesday 5/14/2013. I had the bone-in ribeye and it was great! The new menu definitively is more diverse than the previous one was and I think people will be very happy with it.5/14/2013 12:00:00 AMMother's Day BrunchWe had a wonderful Mother's Day brunch at the Nines. The food was excellent and the service was good. The only thing that disappointed me was they added a 20% service charge - on a table of 3. When asked what it was, we were told it was a required charge that would pay for the staff and that if we wanted to leave a tip we would have to leave an extra one. I am in general against any automatic tip - as it is not a part of the cost of the meal but a reflection of how well your server took care of you. In general, I leave 20 - 25% for good service and above. It takes a lot for me not leave a 20% tip. I find that insulting when I am spending about 30 bucks per person for a brunch to have an automatic tip added on a small table.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMBrunch at NinesI had a great time at Nines on the River Club on Mothers Day. The brunch was excellent. The atmosphere was excellent. The service was wonderful. It made my Mothers Day a terrific experience. Everyone in my group fell in love with this restaurant!5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMBrunch was spectacular!Excellent food. Great setting. Can't be beat in Ozaukee County5/5/2013 12:00:00 AMOur Date Was GreatWe tried Calamari and Sushi for starters and had two different flights. My fiancee particularly liked the sushi and steak. She even called it the most tender piece of meat she had ever tried. A couple times she looked over at me with a "This is super good" look. Dessert (bread pudding) didn't blow my mind, but it was good.
Our server, Julie, was personable but not overbearing. She was quick and was detail oriented with my requests for wine when the entrees were served.5/4/2013 12:00:00 AMThe flights are an outstandingThe flights are an outstanding and delicious option.5/2/2013 12:00:00 AMFirst time in, I will defiantlyFirst time in, I will defiantly go back! Food was great, service excellent. I am looking for a golf club to join and manager brought me info. during
dinner which was great. I will come back maybe Ladies night or soon. I do want to say, the dinning room was half empty and the hostess yelled at me for being twenty minutes late on my reservation and said she would only hold it for 30 minutes. I understand that your establishment would have to do that in ( prime time ) which is ? She just could have conveyed it nicer. Otherwise it was wonderful.
Thank you,

The service, food,and atmosphere was outstanding.
We came back Sunday for brunch!
Again a wow!4/13/2013 12:00:00 AMWe dropped our Mequon CountryWe dropped our Mequon Country Club membership several years ago and were anxioux to see all of the new renovations. The place looked great! The food was very good.
We especially loved the band H2O-OH that was playing live music. After dinner we stayed and had another drink to listen to them play a set. We loved their music. It really made the night.4/11/2013 12:00:00 AMAlways Great!This restaurant never lets me down. Another great meal from the chef at Nines.
We were seated promptly by a very attentive host staff, the service in the dining room was superb, and the food hot and delicious as always. We were told that a new spring menu will be offered soon to take advantage of the local produce. We can't wait!
And did I mention the Sunday brunch? You rarely see a fabulous brunch like this anymore. Don't miss this Mequon gem.4/5/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat Views!We were at The Nines for Easter Brunch. It was good but not too much different than their normal Sunday Brunch, other than the cost being about $10 higher. Also the service from our server wasn't very good. The ambiance is spectacular. We will be back.3/31/2013 12:00:00 AMAMAZING BRUNCH AND EASTER BRUNCH!BRUNCH, Particularly EASTER BRUNCH WAS AMAZING! I think this is the first time I have ever attended a holiday brunch where the food was amazing, i did not feel rushed. even arriving for a 1 pm reservation, the food was fresh, hot and amazing, lines moved, there was a nice flow, service was awesome. I have been to nines several times and to their Brunch and we just love it. Highly recommend and we have already made our reservation for Mother's Day (and a few Sunday brunches in between).3/31/2013 12:00:00 AMMy family and I had brunchMy family and I had brunch on Easter Sunday at Nines. While the food and service was very good, we did not appreciate being charged an extra $25 on our bill. We asked our waitress for an explanation as to what the extra $25 was for and she said that it was an event charge because it was Easter. I was not told that there would be an extra charge when I made the reservations. I feel that it was a complete rip off and would have appreciated being told of the extra charge beforehand. I have never heard of a restaurant doing such a thing. Our waitress did mention to us that a lot of other customers were complaining about it.3/31/2013 12:00:00 AMWe were lucky; we were thereWe were lucky; we were there on a holiday evening and had the whole restaurant to ourselves. It was a bit awkward, but the staff was very gracious. The kitchen closes at 10! So don't make 9pm reservations unless you plan on eating fast. The desserts were pre-made and microwaved before serving- cant recommend them. The main courses and wine were fantastic!3/29/2013 12:00:00 AMWent there for a intimateWent there for a intimate Birthday celebration and it was a unique dining experience.3/20/2013 12:00:00 AMAnother great experienceAnother exceptional experience. We had a group of eight 4 adults 4 kids. Great food, something for everyone and the kids order, go play, eat and go back and play. After dinner we retired to the lounge for another drink and adult conversation. The service was great. Very accommodating to the kids and adults. This is definitely on our visit, eat, drink, enjoy and repeat list. Weekdays and weekends. Keep up the great work.3/20/2013 12:00:00 AMWe tried it for the firstWe tried it for the first time and were very happy. We had the flight of food-3 small plates of variety. The food was inventive and beautifully presented. I try to be gluten free (no wheat) and they were very responsive to that.The atmosphere was very pretty. The dining room was not full (weekday), but the bar was packed and I think many people ate in there.We will go back.3/14/2013 12:00:00 AMWe'll be back!This is the second time that I have come to the Nines, and I have been pleased both times with the service, the food, and the updated atmosphere of the space. While I can still quibble about the rather pedestrian desserts, the appetizers and maine courses more than make up for them. I think that they would probably be just fine in a lesser restaurant, but the rest of the dining experiences sets a high bar. We'll be back.3/9/2013 12:00:00 AM
