Mr. G's Supper Club, Jacksonport - Tuesday June 26, 2018

Door County is outside of our 52 mile radius, but we are on vacation here and decided to sample the supper clubs of the area.  Mr. G’s has been owned by the Geitner family since 1973, originally owned by Bob and Lorraine and then purchased by Bob Jr. in 1981.  Prior to 1973 the place was known as the Paldora Supper Club and Fernwood Gardens Ballroom.

We arrived late, close to 8pm, and the dining room was full, but the barroom had cleared out.  The local Rotary Club was having a dinner in a private room adjacent to the bar. We had our traditional BOFS and BOFP.  They were good.  A small table with crackers, cheese spreads and liver pate was set up between the bar area and dining room. The bartender informed us she was an Oshkosh native, but has lived in Door County a long time and raised her children here.  She gave us menus and regretted to inform us that they were out of the nightly special, prime rib.

 

We enjoyed our drinks and in a little while a waitress appeared at the bar to take our order.  I ordered the Bourbon Glazed Salmon and wild rice, and Paul tried the Angry Pasta with chicken.

 

When we were ready, we were given a very nice table by the window that looked out into a garden area and Logan Creek where I believe they hold weddings.  They had a salad bar, which was pretty typical, and served fresh rolls at the table.  The Bourbon Glazed salmon was very good.  Paul rated his Angry Pasta as quite good and something not typically offered on a supper club menu.  

Mr. G’s is definitely worth considering if you are in the area.
