We
decided
to
back
for
a
second
dining
experience
and
what
a
difference
a
night
makes!!!
We
had
two
guests
from
out
of
town
and
while
we
could
have
gone
anywhere,
we
decided
to
give
The
Plank
another
try!!
Tonight
I
gave
The
Plank
an
easy
5
Star
dinner.
We
had
reservations
at
7
and
were
seated
promptly
despite
the
restaurant
being
VERY
busy!!
Our
server
for
the
evening
was
AJ
and
we
couldn't
have
asked
for
a
better
server.
He
was
prompt
and
attentive,
offered
great
recommendations,
yet
he
was
not
overly
attentive
if
that
makes
sense!!
We
had
the
calamari,
mussels,
shrimp
and
grits
and
lobster
fries
for
appetizers!!
Each
was
amazing!
The
calamari
was
perfectly
breaded
and
contained
easily
enough
for
two
people.
The
shrimp
and
grits
had
perfectly
grilled
shrimp
on
top
of
a
nice
bed
of
grits.
The
lobster
fries
were
amazing
and
included
huge
chunks
of
lobster!
However,
the
best
part
was
the
last
few
bites
when
there
was
nothing
but
luscious
butter,
lobster
and
a
few
fries!!
That
combination
was
out
of
this
world!!!
Entrees
included
the
Divers
Scallops,
the
carbonara,
and
the
walleye
putenesco.
The
Divers
Scallops
(5)
were
melt
in
your
mouth,
fork
tender
gorgeous!!
The
carbonara
was
commented
on
as
very
good.
The
walleye,
unlike
the
previous
visit,
was
absolutely
phenomenal!
Perfectly
cooked,
not
smothered
in
sauce,
and
just
beautiful!
I
have
never
had
a
more
perfectly
cooked
walleye....it
was
that
good!!!
(Before
and
after
pictures)
Dessert
was
bread
pudding
which
had
beautifully
caramelized
bananas
and
was
brilliant!
I
would
be
remiss
if
I
did
not
mention
Shannon
who
remembered
us
from
the
last
visit
and
made
sure
we
had
a
marvelous
experience
to
include
offering
me
a
sample
of
an
out
of
this
world
bourbon
(see
picture)
I
am
so
glad
we
went
back
and
would
tell
you
to
run
NOT
WALK
BUT
run
to
The
Plank!
Absolutely
5
stars!
