Not Sure Anymore - Pewaukee

Delicious corn and crab soup. Tasty Wagu meatball sandwich with truffle fries. Beautiful view of Pewaukee Lake. Professional, friendly staff ready to take good care of you. Peaceful, warm, artistic decor to guarantee an experience you will look forward to come back to.

The food was really well done, and it's hard to beat the view out onto Pewaukee lake! Our service was spotty with a few things taking far longer than they should've (drinks, bread, apps). Server was very personable, and made up for a lot with a surprise birthday desert for my wife (even though we really wanted some angel food cake inside that mug! The short rib was tender and delicious, so was the snapper, and the cauliflower bits can with a tangy and spicy sauce that was delicious. The price tag and the lack of really excellent service made this meal a little underwhelming, and it's the second time that it's been that way. We will probably be back, but we won't rush back.

Outstanding food and service. I was impressed on how customer centric the owner and all staff were. We'll be back!

Several more visits since last review, and still great experiences. Tonight, a friend and I shared the Waygu Meatballs with Burrata and Caramelized Brussels sprouts as starters. The meatballs were a perfectly firm texture with the right amount of seasoning. The Brussels sprouts were as great as they look in the photo! My friend ordered the Ricotta Gnocchi, and I ordered the Bucatini Bolognese. The pasta and gnocchi are made in house. I had a couple pieces of her gnudi (gnocchi made from ricotta) and found them to bee too dense, but the sauce they were served in was delicious! My bucatini was a perfect texture, and the bolognese sauce tasted great! It's made with wagyu beef and Berkshire pork, so I wish the sauce had a lot less cream, so the meat could stand out in a thinner tomato sauce. Again, great flavor! For dessert, we shared the Chocolate Sachet, filled with white chocolate mousse and raspberry puree, and it was mind blowingly decadent! The Limoncello Chambord Mousse with sugar cookie was also decadent, but the Chocolate Sachet was our favorite! We each ordered a cocktail. I had the Blood Orange Manhattan, and it was one of the best cocktails I've ever had! Their cocktail program is pretty strong! I've enjoyed many over the years from them. Our service from Emily and Mary was on point! They were both fun and personable. The view of the lake across the street, as we dined on the patio, added to the great experience! They've been here for 10 years and still going strong! Check them out!

Among my very favorite restaurants in lake country. Great food. Great service. Owner Ted is an outstanding proprietor. Outdoor dining with the very best sunset views over Pewaukee Lake!
