  They have a delicious Celery Seed salad dressing that is sweet, but not overpowering.  Delicious.  The traditional "relish tray" selections of Kidney Bean Salad and Cottage Cheese are a nice touch, which very few restaurants still offer.  The soup I had was top-notch...Clam Chowder that didn't seem to be specifically Manhattan or New England, but something unto itself.  It was very good.  I ordered the Prime Rib and wasn't disappointed.  It was a shame we didn't have a chance to grab a drink at the bar and enjoy some cheese spread and crackers - they looked delicious!  Our friends that brought us here warned us of the security guard to watch the car, and though the neighborhood might not be the nicest I wasn't particularly concerned with leaving my car in the lot next to the building.  Will definitely return when in Kenosha!

  If you love that old school supper club atmosphere with the crackers and Merkt's on the bar and the kidney bean salad bowl for the table you'll like Bartley House.  Maybe 20 tables surround the U shaped bar in a small room with old time wooden paneling that looks like someone's basement rec room. The food is typical Wisconsin supper club fair with a great perch fry on Friday night.  The fish, coated in a light breading, was hot and delicious and came with your choice of potato, soup or salad.  Not sure about the rest of the menu but if you like perch......go for it.

  What a gem!  Don't let the neighborhood or the outside appearance fool you - inside you will find a cozy dining room and bar, white linens on the tables and some of the best food in the area.  Great steaks, seafood, ribs - you name it - it's all excellent.  The wait staff have been here for years and it shows in the professional, friendly service.  I love the complementary appetizers served before dinner - cottage cheese, kidney bean salad as well as crackers and cheese.  Go for the twice-baked potato as a side.  Love this place!!
