Excellent! My husband and I did a little road trip from Madison for our wedding anniversary and decided we wanted a little nicer dinner. We saw that this was a supper club and thought this would fill the bill. How correct we were. We were seated immediately. Our waitress was very pleasant and helpful. I ordered the salmon oscar and my husband ordered the special that evening of a flat iron steak. The salad and soup bar was fresh and clean and the soups were amazing. Both our meals were delicious and my husbands steak was cooked perfectly. If we are ever in Prairie du Chien again we will definitely be stopping.

A true Wisconsin Supper Club — big, friendly bar with great drinks, chilled plate salad bar and the best steaks we have had in years. Tina was our server and did a great job. We felt we had the table for the night if we chose. We wouldn’t hesitate driving across the state to spend the day near the river, eat at The Angus and head for home near Madison.

This was our second time visiting this great steak house. We were seated right away. Service was prompt and everything was very good. We all had salad bar and steaks. Each steak was cooked perfectly. Good steak house!

We booked a reservation here for our 10 year anniversary. We arrived early and sat at the bar and had a drink and chatted with the locals. We were seated at the time of our reservation. We had salad bar which was fresh, but had iceberg lettuce. They served amazing warm bread and shortly after our steaks and hash browns were served. Great food and speedy service! A must stop if you’re in the area!

Excellent place. Old style super club ambiance. Great steaks and well kept with great steaks. It’s going to sound weird but their homemade spreadable salad bar cheese is to die for. It’s made in house. Yum!

We recently stayed in Prairie du Chien for our autumn Mississippi tour. We traveled from Madison with our new friends from Israel. Our dinners at the Black Angus were all outstanding. The salad bar(a Wisconsin Supper Club tradition) was full and fresh with several extra treats included. Our friends had their first Rob Roy and Old Fashioned drinks and these were also very good. I highly recommend this restaurant.

While visiting Prairie du Chien my wife and I decided to give Jones’ Black Angus a try. It did not disappoint. The supper club atmosphere was very typical of WI supper clubs(80’s look). The salad bar was fresh and still being refreshed at 8:40PM when we arrived. I had the all you can eat shrimp and did not make it passed the Coconut Shrimp because they were most excellent and the sauce the provide with it was superb. My wife got the Ribeye with Oscar(crab/lobster asparagus Bearnaise sauce) steak enhancer. Thankfully she does not eat a lot, so I got to enjoy both. It was one of the better steaks in recent memory. My wife could not stop talking about how good it was for hours afterward. To top it off our server, Britney, was personable and perfectly attentive. We will be back to Prairie, so that we can eat hear again.

I’m quite sure this place is now called The Angus Supper Club. It’s been under new ownership a few times over the years(according to our server, Bunny) so that must be the reason for the name change. My family and I were in the area for a reunion, and they insisted that we have dinner at The Angus. To be honest, I was a bit judgmental upon pulling into the parking lot. It’s a visibly old establishment located directly off the highway in the small town of Prairie Du Chien. Upon walking in, I got the feeling that the restaurant hasn’t changed much in the last few decades. This premonition was confirmed when my Aunt began telling me about a time that she celebrated her wedding anniversary at The Angus 30 years ago and that it looks almost exactly the same. An old bar is located in the back right corner, made of beautiful mahogany with classic chairs surrounding it. Make sure to at least walk past it, or better yet have a drink at it. Our group sat near the back of the restaurant where we were greeted promptly by our server, Bunny. She told us that she’s been working at The Angus for 40 years and that she’d just celebrated her 70th birthday. When Bunny walked away, Bryan looked at me with wide eyes and asked, «Did she say four-TEEN or for-TY!?» Her experience really shone through her work; Bunny clearly loves her job and provided us with amazing service. Now for the good stuff. I started my meal off with a brandy old fashioned, seeing as I was at a Wisconsin supper club on a Saturday night. It turned out to be one of the most delicious and HUGE old fashioneds I’ve ever had. I almost had to use two hands to drink it, which reminded me once again why I love living in this state. Our group ordered the appetizer sampler, which was just a bunch of fried stuff on a platter. You won’t hear any complaints from me about that, but when I return I’ll just order the cheese curds. Oh my gosh, those cheese curds. They were absolutely amazing. Bunny brought us some ranch, ‘just in case’, and I was in heaven. Angus knows how to do Wisconsin — hot cheese curds and massive old fashioneds. I knew I’d be back to this restaurant after the appetizer. They have a full salad bar, complete with homemade croutons(so, so delicious) and cold plates. There was also a daily homemade soup and a large block of cheese to take slices from. I ordered the shrimp brochette for my entrée, which was grilled(and fresh!) shrimp over a bed of wild rice and sauteed bell peppers. You get your choice of potato with all entrees. Most of my family ordered the prime rib, their Saturday night special, and everyone really seemed to enjoy it. I had a bite of Bryan’s and it was pretty darn good. We were way too stuffed for dessert. I highly recommend stopping by The Angus if you’re in the area. It’s definitely a splurge meal, so be ready to spend a little more you normally would at a restaurant in Prairie du Chien. In my opinion, it’s more than worth it!

One thing you need to take into account while reading this is that Prairie Du Chien is a small town and like most small towns there are a limited number of restaurants, so the five star rating is relative to what is available in Prarie. Angus is the best place in town for dinner. I do not eat meat, but everyone I dine with who gets a steak says it is delicious. I always get the Salmon Oscar, which is outstanding. They have a nice salad bar, which is always cold and clean. The service is always good and the drinks are very large and very cheap. If you are planning to eat at Angus on Friday or Saturday I would suggest making a reservation. Friday is fish fry night and the parking lot is always packed on Saturday. Overall, good food, good service and the best place in town to take someone who comes to visit.

Salad bar: not a lot of selections but with one exception, it was all fresh and tasty.(Note to the management: Bac-Os? Really? You guys are much better than that.) Entrees: I had the baked walleye fillet, and although there wasn’t anything wrong with it, I still had the nagging thought that maybe I should have gotten a steak. I think what happened was that the chef prepared and plated it almost like a «poor man’s lobster», what with minimal spicing and being served with drawn butter. I was hoping for something that stood on its own and had a bit more flavor. My wife, on the other hand, thoroughly enjoyed her ribs. One other downer I noted was the hash-browns with cheese and onions that was offered as a dinner potato choice. Normally, this pushes multiple yum buttons for me, but when the food arrived, I found that the cheese basically gummed up the works, and some of the onions were very aggressively sauteed, to the point of tasting a bit burnt. I think the take-away I have from eating here was that if I’d gone with my go-to order(filet, baked potato) I’d be giving 1.5 to two more stars to this place, because from what I’d seen from my spouse’s order and other nearby diners, their kitchen cranks out some top-notch meat. We’ll be back, though, next time we pass through the area, and this time I’m getting me some steaks.

This is my favorite place to eat in PDC. I used to go here with my parents in the ’70’s & it’s still good. Took my motorcycle up that way this last weekend & hit the Angus on Friday, June 13th, 2014. Had my usual, the filet. It was excellent, as usual, too. They were packed when we got there around 6:30 pm, so we had a seat at the bar where others were waiting as well. We were seated in about 20 minutes & the feast was on. They have a pretty good little salad bar, great entrees, good, friendly service & the place is nice & clean. I’ve been to a lot of «supper clubs» & this one is right up there. I will go there every time I’m in town from Chicago.

Let’s get this out of the way first: The only possible knock against the Black Angus that I can come up with is its décor. It’s old school, okay? Just accept that and get over it. It’s actually part of the charm of the place. However the food and drinks are excellent. We live in the Chicago area and have access to some really fine steakhouses, but, as I’ve told my friends, the steaks at the Black Angus are as good as you’ll find anywhere. The portions are generous and of good quality. Included with every meal is the salad and soup bar. Not the most extensive in the world, but always well stocked and fresh. If you prefer, you can order a Caesar salad as an alternative. The cocktails are well made and reasonably priced. Here’s something else – particularly in response to a comment by another reviewer regarding the cost of wine – they have a relatively small, but very high quality, selection of wines. And, rather than the tremendous markup you see in most restaurants, these really excellent wines are priced maybe 10−20% above what you’d pay in a liquor store. So, while the wines are perhaps a bit more expensive than the normal Wisconsin supper club’s, they are genuinely very high quality wines that are very fairly priced for their quality. Service is always very good. The waitresses always go through the same«Have you seen our specials?» routine, but they are very knowledgeable about the menu, and will honestly answer any questions about their preferences. It’s our go-to in the area because the food and beverages here are exceptional and it’s all priced very fairly. I highly recommend the Black Angus(Incidentally, the exterior sign simply says«Angus,» rather than«Black Angus». .. don’t let that throw you off).

I had dinner last night with my family. Im from chicago and have eaten at some top restaurants. Last nights dinner was awesome. The cheese curds are homemade not processed. The salad/soup bar had a nice selection to choose from. My ribeye was perfectly cooked and had a great flavor. They have a nice wine list with a variety of wines and price ranges. Our waitress Jennifer was wonderful.

We stumbled on this place while on vacation. The friendly staff were great. The atmosphere was warm and homey. The food was amazing. Steaks were cooked exactly as ordered. The salmon Oscar was great. My favorite was the tiramisu. We will definitely be back.

Love WI supper clubs. Got there early on a Friday night and had a great experience. Full salad bar with ribeye and prime rib, both were superb as were the old fashions and post dinner ice cream drinks.

We live not to far from here. I have eaten there several times and the steaks are always awesome no matter what cut we order. The salad bar is always wonderful and the soups are the best. One complaint: the sides of potatoes aren’t too great. We had American fries and they were literally burnt black in spots, although the soups more than make up for it! Service is always excellent.

I took my friends here for a nice dinner. We didn’t have reservations. When I explained that I was from 3.5 hrs away they found me a table even though it was Saturday night and busy. The food was excellent. I recommend the Prime Rib on Saturday night. The service was great too! I would definitely go back.
