Excellent food especially the fried perch, shrimp and frog legs. I am a frequent diner at the Rib Cage and it never disappoints. Always a friendly welcome!

We have been here many times in the past 30+ years. It has different owners than when we first started eating there, but the food and service remain excellent! We ate there last night and everything was perfect!

Very good whitefish. 2-9-23 I ate there again. Excellent whitefish with a twice baked potato and stewed tomatoes, salad and a roll. Reasonable price. My Mom had lamb which she loved. Eat at this local gem.

Excellent food and always consistent! My husband is very particular about ribs, and this is one of the few restaurants where he'll happily order them. He went for the full rack of ribs and loved it!

Shaun Briggs

The food was great. The meat options were prepared very well and fresh. Salads were really fresh. The service was great as multiple employees checked in to make sure everything was ok and were very pleasant and friendly.
