We went here to grab a burger with some family members. The prices were good and the burgers were very tasty. We got a basket of fries that we split among the 4 of us and still had fries leftover. We also tried the fried mushrooms and enjoyed those as well. Had to try the signature drink Purple Monkey and... More

Having read other reviews on Monk's Bar and Grill, it seemed like a great choice for entertaining out-of-state friends. I was not disappointed. The restaurant has a definite "Wisconsin theme" in it's decor and on it's menu. The french fried cheese curds and beer battered onion rings made a great introduction to the rest of our meal. There were three... More

The absolute best burger i`ve ever had in my entire life!! You owe it to yourself to try one.It`s situated on Broadway in downtown Dells. I wish they would consider bringing back the mushroons they used to serve years ago! Love the fries too!!

I have enjoyed Monk's hamburgers since I was a child......50 to 60 years.....it is hard to visit the Dells with out going to Monk's or Nigs (across the street). Both are just good old fashion fun!!

I have to admit the food was pretty good but very costly for four kids meals couple sodas 2 hamburgers and two appetizers for all of us too share since no fries came up to over 65 dollars.. Quite a bit for some hamburgers..

We stopped into Monk's for lunch while in the Dells and we were glad we did! The Burgers there are great! We also got an order of cheese curds which were very delicious. If you are looking for a great burger joint while in the Dells, I highly recommend stopping at Monk's!

Our family of 4 went to Monk's for lunch during our visit to the Dells. The cheese curds were good but not awesome and for $10 for a medium sized basket I expected a little more. The kids meals come with fries and a drink and are served on a Monk's frisbee that they get to keep which was a... More

Best cheeseburgers and cheese curds in the Dells! I've eaten at Monk's at least 100 times. The wait staff is fast! The food is amazing. The signature drink... the purple monkey is delicious! Great place to stop for a quick bite or hang out.
