Great place for quality food and customer service. Meals come with salad bar and soup which were excellent. Make sure you have reservations during busy times.

I can't say for the rooms because we only went for dinner. The food was delicious, everything was clean. The best thing was the service the young lady worked very hard at taking care of everyone, and always had a smile on her face. We gave her a compliment and asked to speak to her boss. We spoke to Lena and told her how great our waitress was. With food like that and service like that we will be coming back frequently.

Cabin was great but the restaurant was alright waited very long to get seated even though there were empty tables the fire wood we bought was not of good quality it was kind of rotten and would burn very good but as far as the cabin and location it was wonderful and relaxing

I went there with my family for a Friday fish fry. They were busy but not crowded and we were seated immediately even though there were seven of us. There was a variety of fish options so we were all able to choose our favorites. The salad bar included the usual items in addition to pasta salads, cheese spread, soups, etc. The back of the dining room is a wall of windows and we were lucky enough to be there as the sun was setting over the lake and the sky was a beautiful shade of purple and pink. The service was very good and it was an overall great experience. Truly a hidden gem!

Great resort, amazing sunset views, good fishing. Has a boat launch on site for customers. Swim beach needs some work/up keep. Pet friendly and has a dog walk area.

Bar service (Dave) was amazing. Knows the area and history, has great stories and makes a solid old fashion. Pizzas are awesome for families and groups.

We stayed at Lena’s for a wedding that was near by. We had one of the studio units. It was clean and cute / cozy. The restaurant on site had amazing food - best in the area. We rented a pontoon one day which was perfect. The lake is very large and was a picturesque setting for our stay. Would recommend!

I had a terrible experience at the seafood buffet. The food was disgusting, with the fish being noticeably undercooked, making it unsafe and unappetizing. To make matters worse, the owner Lena was incredibly rude, showing no concern for our complaints. The overall experience was so poor that I would never return to this restaurant. Save your money and avoid this place.

Very very disappointed in the β€œSmoked BBQ Buffet”. Drove over 5 hours to visit family and plan a nice dinner and was beyond disappointed. Seen this place on facebook and thought it looked damn good but boy was I wrong. Service was the worst I’ve ever experienced. Calling it a BBQ Buffet and there were 5 protein options and 4 sides. No beef option. Almost all the food was cold or dry as sawdust. It’s bad when the lemonade was the best part. The corn was beyond terrible the cows wouldn’t even have eaten it. The chicken was extremely dry and flavorless. The Cajun catfish was the best food option and was clearly a highlight because as soon as it hit the pan it was gone. $32 for the buffet is outrageous for the food options available. The salad bar was also depressing, most of the containers were empty.

I saw a Facebook reel advertising the smoked BBQ Saturday buffet a few weeks ago and we made the decision to make the 1 -1/2 hour trip(one way) there for the buffet last Saturday. I was so excited thinking I had found a place my family was going to love. We arrived around 7pm, they had us wait standing in the doorway for 15-20 minutes before being seated. There were open tables, including 1 completely set and ready ( for 8). There was 5 of us, with no others waiting to be seated, until a table for 6 was cleaned off and set. There appeared to be 1 waitress inside, 1 outside on the deck, 1 hostess, 1 busser, who disappeared mid clean up and the hostess took over cleaning. We were there for the buffet so we didn't need to see menus, something we in retrospect should have went up and looked at the buffet before deciding on it. You can see some of the salad bar from the doorway , but not around the corner to where the main entrees are. Let's just say it was very disappointing. I understand changing up the menu a little bit but there were were so few options and of lesser quality. No crawfish boil, no sirloin, no pork belly, no elevated sides, however their mashed potatoes & gravy were good. No dessert, overcooked corn. The salad bar was good with a lot of topping and dressing options. We received our bill and were shocked that it was $187 for 5 buffets, 2 craft beers, and 3 sodas. Had the buffet been as advertised or comparable, it would have been more on target, but not for what was available on that night. If it had been as amazing as we were hoping, we would definitely try it again, but not with the uncertainty of hitting it on a subpar menu night.

We only stopped by for dinner since it's one of the couple restaurants on the lake. It's a beautiful area and pleasant restaurant. We enjoyed the walleye and the complimentary soup and salad bar with purchase of an entree. I also highly recommend NOT ordering the fries because they are incredibly bland. Get the baked potato instead. The biggest issue was the service. We waited 10 minutes to be seated and then even longer for a menu and drinks. The restaurant was a bit over half full and it took an hour to be served our food from ordering. In general, there is a good food and a nice location, but don't come here in a hurry!

We were turned away an hour before closing because the cook said so, no explanation. They apparently didn't want any business from four adults and two hungry kids under 10. Not a great way to run a business.

Good food! Very tasty ribeye and expertly cooked. Big soup/salad bar with a large variety. It's a bit expensive IE $36 for the ribeye dinner. There's not too many options for local restaurants in the Northwoods, but you can't go wrong with Lena's!

The dining area is still appealing, even when the food was anything but. We had the Saturday prime rib & bbq buffet specials - 5 of 5 people were disappointed in the quality and flavor. The pork ribs were undercooked, beef ribs overcooked and overall, difficult to consume. While appearing to have potential, the prime rib should have measured up, but alas the compensation came as intensely salty au jus. Was anticipating this meal, but greatly discouraged.

Plenty of awesome food!! All the woman received a carnation from the owner for Valentine's Day, nice surprise. Will definitely go back. We're going to try the Saturday BBQ buffet next! πŸ˜‹

My girlfriend and I were first-time visitors on Saturday, Feb 1, and had a late-afternoon lunch. We ordered a sampler appetizer of fried cheese curds, onion rings, and mushrooms, which was great, but the 6-piece chicken tenders were even better! They were HUGE, fresh chicken breast, and hand-battered....delicious!

But wait....it gets even better! We had just missed the start of their Saturday meat buffet, which looked OUTSTANDING and I'm definitely going back again to try that, as I had never seen anything quite like it. Various smoked meats and delicious-looking sides.

Furthermore, they had an excellent salad bar with absolutely loaded potato and sausage soup, and a container with fresh mashed potatoes.

The dining room, bar, and entire grounds were very clean and organized, and it's obvious the owners take a lot of pride in it...so nice to see!

I'd highly recommend Lena's!

Went there not long after reopening under the new owner on a Saturday night, prime rib was delicious. Went tonight and the prime rib was just ok, potato pancakes awful, baked potato was dried out and hard. Also, the owner went around the dining room spoke with each table that was occupied and then totally ignored us. So will we return, probably not and I don’t recommend it. The waitress was very nice.

We stopped for dinner at my friend's suggestion, she was familiar with the owner. I had the Friday night buffet which was excellent. Great salad bar, great service. The buffet had everything and then some - broiled and fried cod, calamari, cajun catfish, hush puppies, and more that I didn't have a big enough stomach for. Will definitely be back!

Edit: Glad to see Lena took over! She did great up in Glidden!

Restaurant Customer: Not like the old Bob's Northern Pines! The only good thing about the restaurant is the same old view of the lake! The fish somehow managed to be both completely dried out texturally, yet still served on the plate in a pool of water, no seasoning at all. The green beans had no seasoning at all. The only thing edible was the (likely bulk bought) dinner roll. I am guessing that "Chef Mike" does a lot of the cooking around here these days. Prices are out of control for what amounts to a microwaved dinner. Service times were not good for a completely empty, rainy summer weeknight. If this place wants to be a bar, with bar food, fine. Just get a pizza oven and a deep fryer and limit your menu.

Seated quickly, that was the best part of service, slow drinks, even slower food. 2.5 hours or more after being seated to get a two-top, three entrees. I was excited and sure, a Friday night, but c'mon really, by the time I asked to get our order to go, the place had cleared out and it was still another forty minutes plus. Never in my life have I ever, and never again.
The seven-top after us got served and finished before us even though they arrived and ordered long after us. I was hoping the food would have a stellar handcrafted element, given that I could have caught and cleaned and cooked the fish faster myself, but alas the food is sub par at best, the fish cold and bland, the potato pancakes raw in the center, the chicken Tuscany came out as Alfredo and the au jus on the loaded French dip tastes much akin to beef flavored ramen packets, gross and expensive, not good enough for my dogs let alone human consumption.
The waitress did try to make amends and compensated the drinks for free so I'll give the one star otherwise no redeeming qualities.

My family and I would frequent this establishment when we would stay at our cabin, and were always satisfied with our meals, service, and the cost. We stopped in there last weekend, and noticed it was under new ownership. Most of the items on the menu were the same, but also notice the prices almost doubled. That generally isn't that big of a concern now a days with inflation, and new ownership. The problem we had was it took close to two hours to get our food, and when got our order it was cold. Another issue we had was the fish was raw in the middle and had to be sent back to the kitchen. When got the fish back it was so overcooked it was like chewing on a rubber tire. It also seemed poorly managed, which I get with new owners. Long story short, we don't plan on every stopping back to Lena's Northern Pines in the future. The menu prices where to high for the low quality food.

To tell you the truth, my parents ran this place in the 60s when it was called "Metzes (not sure of the spelling(Metzes)) Landing". I was about 12 or 13 years old. It was great living there, swimming, boating, and water skiing, I visited Northern Pines Resort in 2022, and I'm so happy that they re-did this place. If you want to visit this place, go Google Maps, and type in Northern Pines Resort, Butternut, Wisconsin.
But you should check this place out!

Food was amazing! Drinks were so yummy;! We had a table of 4, and for 3 of us it was our first time at this restaurant. We are from Milwaukee and it was nice to dine here. One thing that bothered my party was how hot it was in the dinning area. It would've been nice to have the windows was there was a cool breeze outside. There was eating and chairs along with a fire pit outside. Very pretty and relaxing 😎

Went to get food and was flabbergasted with the prices was planning on enjoying a night out with my girlfriend and said whatever I don't care don't worry about the price just enjoy the food and luckily she said absolutely not that the prices were crazy let's go somewhere else. I guess I'm a lucky guy lol but 33 dollars for an 8 Oz stake wrapped with bacon is starting to make me feel a little woozy. Didn't get to try the food but the gentleman that greeted us was very polite as well as our waitress and it looked like a very nice place

Over an hour wait for two taco salads.
The waitress was friendly and accommodating however when asked to speak to a manager, a waiter was sent who was rude. Taco shells tasted like they had been sitting around for a day, chicken undercooked. They did comp the salads and the rest of the party with us had the seafood bar said it was okay. Pickles Fries were disgusting barely ate them. Won't be going back.

Our waitress was wonderful! Our wait for the food was at an hour and there were only 3 other groups of people waiting. The food was average to below average. The prices were high for such average food. We won't be going back. I had a BLT, easy to make. For 1$14 it should have been better. My daughter had a chicken salad. It was lettuce, chicken, and croutons. That was it, for $19. It was all very bland, no flavor.

Not worth the $! In my opinion this is a overpriced food establishment. Last night ordered food, a chicken tender basket with fries, a french dip with fries, a kids corn dogs meal and a kids chicken tender meal. The fries we received I wouldn't even call them a half order it was ridiculous, the french dip was a grease ball and we didn't even receive the kids tender meal!! Definitely not worth $65! Next time we are ice fishing I am packing cold sandwiches I would rather eat that!

Cabin 5 is great and so is the location and view. My issue is with the price almost doubling in one year. We stayed in the same cabin for a week last fall and just again last week. They did add one new memory foam mattress to the cabin. Also a new heat/AC unit. Other than that the cabin was exactly the same. The same stained couch and recliner. Dust on the walls and pictures/decor. They also added a $25 per night per dog fee. I understand not all will bring dogs but most other cabins had at least one dog last week. All in we spent over $1700 for a one week stay. Compared to between $700-$800 one year ago. Also we had a gas leak in the cabin one day which was resolved but I had to turn the gas off to the stove and water heater myself. I was not notified that the problem was fixed and waited 4 hours until I went back and found out. We were given a coupon for $5 off our bill at the resort. At least there’s that. We did not eat there. It’s a great cabin and location but in my opinion, there are other houses and cabins to rent that are just as nice and you’ll save several hundred dollars.

Find it interesting when a resort-eating establishment get 1/5 and 5/5 reviews. We stayed for a week recently, the place is awesome, while we didn't go to eat, some folks in are party did, and all said the food was good. We did have difficulties with reservations, was told they do Saturday to Saturday only, but two cabins we reserved had people in them Saturday night, leaving Sunday morning. I'm putting this in the lack of communication, lack of help, new ownership, etc. This place is really capable of a 5/5 rating, the people that were there did their best to make our stay enjoyable, We will give it another try someday, truly capable of a 5/5 overall rating! Thanks to the people who were there for making our stay enjoyable!!

Group of 13 entered a busy bar "manager" on phone texting didn't acknowledge a single person in our group. Had to go to outdoor bar for drinks and to order our food. Supposedly 3 people in our groups order wasn't entered. The waitress never came back to ask about drink refills or if our food was good. Another 40 minutes went by and the three others got their food. No compensation was offered for THEIR mistake. Asked to speak to a manager who was RUDE and trying to justify what happened. Told us it was ridiculous for her to comp the food as we should have sent it back!! Umm... Sorry didn't mean our company wasn't hungry. In the end she agreed to comp the three meals. However only one line lava cake was comped out of the three meals. Will NEVER return! Don't waste your time our money!

At the request of my husband, we came for the Father's Day meal. We were very understanding that it would take awhile for our food being a special day. Our waitress explained how they just hadn't prepared for the large turnout. We assured her it wasn't a problem.
We weren't very happy with how picked over the salad bar was, and when we got our food it was barely warm. The ribs disappointed us the most as every other time we've had them they were delicious. This night, they were bland and hardly had any sauce on them as well as being cold.
We will more than likely eat here again, however we will steer clear on any Holiday/Event evenings.

Terrible service, bartender/owners laughs at people using PPE, waitress took over two hours to take our order, get waters, and bring is our orders, not to mention the dining room being 1/5 full on a Sunday at 630 at night. The food is mediocre at par but extremely over priced, image ordering some beer battered northern perch for it to arrive broken up and mangled. Save your self some time in life and skip this establishment, and find somewhere worthy of munching at.

Excellent!
It was prom night so I was a little nervous, but our waiter Joe was awesome πŸ‘Œ
Prime Rib..perfect
Loved the salad bar!
Just a tip...talk to rest of staff...my drink sat on the bar in the sun and was watered down.
I watched rest of staff, was disappointed to see no one helped out when they weren't busy...
Joe better have gotten all his tip with no sharing because no one else deserved it.

Definitely worth the trip. Had fun, plenty of seating in the bar and restaurant. Employees were great.

Just under 2 hours finally got food. Plates were missing food. Waitress was completely ineffective and absent. There is no sort of service recovery. Asked to speak to the owner and apparently she couldn’t be found. If something is wrong the wait staff should NOT disappear. Don’t go here. Just stay home and make a burger.

I am here right now. 20 minutes to have our order taken. 40 minutes later still no food. Water tastes funky. One hour of my life-gone. No fish fry. No waitress Gretchen. This newly named old place is going to fail again.

My husband and I stopped for dinner. The food and service was very good . We had a pattie melt and it was delicious, 1/2 # burger with beer battered fries and coleslaw. A bloody Mary and everything was fresh and tasty

My family and friends we hear to eat last night and the bartender was very rude to my mother, the waitresses we're not even paying attention to us, just walked by us and said nothing. The food when not very good. I ordered a burger and it was so bunt I had to look to see if they put anything on it. The Fries were discussing, the fish, all you could taste was batter. And they were not given us what we ordered, some were missing things. We had to ask for ketchup and salt. It was just not very good service. I would not recommend this place.

Absolutely awful. My significant other and I walked in and stood in the doorway based on the "Please wait to be seated" sign. Five minutes later someone asked us if we wanted a table. (Duh?) She brought us to a spot and didn't say another word to us for about ten minutes until another waitress came up and asked us if we had gotten menus. She handed us some. We proceeded to sit yet again for another twenty to twenty five minutes -- no one came to get our order or even ask if we wanted a drink. I realize it was somewhat busy, but I've been in restaurants that were a lot busier and had great service. As we were still sitting there two customers walked out and told us that the food was almost worst than the service (if that was possible!) and they suggested a different restaurant. So after nearly a half hour of waiting, we left and went to another place. Would not suggest this place to anyone.
