    Everything was fantastic. We suggest however sound deadening artwork to cut down on some of the noise and echoing. Other than that, superb Food and Service. Thanks!

    Appetizers were excellent. I had Prime Rib medium rare done perfectly and seasoned in point. My wife had Mushroom Ravioli, which was very good. Waitress was very friendly and prompt.

    Was hoping to be seated in the main restaurant but was seated in the new lounge. Not as romantic and was noisy while a party was waiting in the hotel entryway. Fine after they left. Food and drinks were amazing!

    The food was very good. Our server did a great job. They were busy and perhaps that is why it took an hour for our food to arrive. Due to the number of people in the restaurant, it was very challenging to carry on a conversation. We have eaten there often at lunch and thoroughly enjoyed it. I would be reluctant to recommend it for an evening meal, especially on a busy night.

    My filet was tougher than it should have been. My wife had the crab cakes and didn’t feel well afterwards but I can’t say for sure if it was the food.

    Great service. Scallops were some of the best I’ve ever had - tender & flavorful. We arrived early to make a 7:30 show time. It was very quiet at first, then got a little noisier as the bar filled. Our server Mike was very attentive, made some good recommendations, never rushed us as the place filled up. I would definitely come again

    I was in a huge rush and Rye came through. The waiter understood completely and my food was delivered almost immediately after ordering. French onion soup and their tossed salad nailed it for me. THX

    It was our first time dining at Rye and we will definitely return. Great drinks in the bar, service at our table was top notch and our entrees were excellent. Cozy, warm decor and enjoyable all the way around. They were busy in the dining room so the noise level was a little higher than preferred, but that's nitpicking. We had a great experience at Rye. Kudos to all. Can't wait to return.

    Focaccia was not fully baked, just beyond raw dough. Steak was extra rare, not medium rare. Way too much salt in the Parmesan hash potatoes. We’ve been here many times hoping for a hit, but unfortunately, it’s always been a miss.

    Rye is our favorite restaurant in Appleton. The menu is limited, but the choices are unique. The layers of flavors are amazing. The tempura cheese curds are delicious! If you like goat cheese then don't miss the cheesecake. The service is professional and efficient. The ambiance is cozy. You really need a reservation, because they are always. busy.
