What a great place to dine on Mothers Day with family. The buffet was very reasonably priced. The food and dessert assortment was fabulous. I do wish that the Sportsman would consider taking reservations, especially on holidays. Even though, without reservations, we were able to get a table for 20 within an hour wait. It was nice to be able... More

I stop here almost every time I'm in town. The food and service are good, reliable and the best in town. It might do them good to have a little competition because if they upped their game a bit, they could become a destination restaurant for a wider region. I just tried the salmon for the first time...delish, as we're... More

My personal favorite is their chicken wings; however, everything is great here. Seafood, steaks, mexican, it doesn't matter, it's all good. I come here from out of town and meet up with family friends. Our total party is always 10+ people and the wait is never unreasonable, even on NFL Sundays.

Moving from Chicago to Monticello, left muuch to be desired on the food scene. I was happy to find Sportsman a great place to drive to or boat to. It is located right on the water and is perfect for a romantic night out or a family dinner or lunch. The food is always great. The vegetables that come as... More

This place is so much better since the remodel. The dining is beautiful and scenic! The bar area is just as nice! It is wonderful to be able to dine and view the water. The food and customer service is right on par! Great place for family and friends!

Fun local spot. Nice river views and pretty good food. Not outrageously expensive, but not the cheapest either.

We love this place. We have been here many times and have never been disappointed. The food is excellent and the staff is friendly. The fried fish, brisket, and coconut shrimp are some of our favorites. Be sure to try the house made ranch or blue cheese dressings. This place is very popular on weekends and in the summer, but...

The food and price range are ok -- but the coctails are like water!!! They do have good wine and beer, which is what I would suggest over any mixed beverage ---- unless you prefer a very, very weak drink.
