    Delicious and plentiful salad!

    We had 2 events in the month of February. Meg was my point of contact for both. She has the best communication skills I have ever come across at a restaurant! She was super easy to get ahold of and always answered my questions promptly and efficiently. She was very accommodating with our themed events and made sure the room was set up to meet our needs. The room was organized well and we had ample space for both events that had over 20 people at each one. The food came out quickly and the portions were good and the food was tasty. I enjoyed both my meals and the great service that was provided. When they were made aware of any questions or concerns, they were dealt with quickly, we just had to let them know. There was a discrepancy with the gratuity accidentally being charged 20% for one of the events, but as soon as they were made aware of the situation it was taken care of. They went above and beyond and they will be at the top of my list for my next event!

    Best onion rings EVER

    We always stop by Cheap Charlie's while antiquing in the area. Can't beat their onion rings, patty melts on marble rye and burgers are excellent as well. Unassuming exterior, but not anything you'd want to pass up.

Steven and Megan are a proper fun duo behind the bar but their skills really stand out. My only negative is HOW EXPENSIVE the drinks are. You have to remember that this is an experience and enjoy every moment but be prepared for a steep bar/restaurant bill. We will definitely be back again. We are locals and have so few lakefront dining/drinking venues that this is a nice place to enjoy the views with a mix of local wines and international, spirits and beers. Cin Cin!

    Would give them 3.5 stars. Agree with some other reviews that the view and atmosphere is nice but…read morenot worth the upsale price. We came as a larger group and they were nice enough for us to order from the breakfast menu as they switched over the lunch menu at 11:30am. Our table enjoyed the food but all agreed it wasn't worth the price point. I tried the chocolate croissant with homemade butter and maple bacon jam along with the Canadian bacon Benedict. The chocolate croissant was nice with the maple bacon jam but definitely not worth the price point of $12. The croissant was quite smaller, like the chocolate croissants you can get from Costco or Starbucks. The Canadian bacon eggs Benedict however was delicious and I really enjoyed it! I just am not sure again it was worth the high price point. However I definitely felt the service was missing. As we were the only ones in the dining area, I felt the service was missing the mark. The server saw we were carrying a baby in the restaurant but didn't ask if we wanted a high chair. My mother-in-law spied it in the corner and then we had to ask for it and we proceeded to set it up at the table. As I was with 2 young kids, I ordered some simple items before the main course like their chocolate croissant and fruit cup. I assumed the server would ask if we wanted those ahead of time but that didn't happen. He also had forgotten my son's drink order and which my son actually had to ask him after some time "where's my juice?" My older son had ordered the s'mores waffles and it looked good when it was delivered but as I cut some of it for me to try later on, I soon realized the batter was uncooked in the middle of most of them. I was thoroughly disappointed he had eaten some of it before I discovered it was uncooked. The server throughly apologized and they remade the order which in the end, we ended up taking home with us. They also didn't take the order off the check for us which normally that would happen. For such a classy restaurant, we would think they would know how to make waffles and for more top-notch service. I think next time we will just enjoy the nice views and choose to eat somewhere else when we are in the area.

She comes back maybe three minutes later, and I wasn't ready to order yet. So she leaves. They were busy, but they only had two servers covering the entire restaurant I was ready to order just a couple of minutes later, and my server never came back. I waited, I even tried to wave down the other server. She just looked at me and walked away. She didn't even bother to tell my server that I was ready to order or that I needed something. Not only that, but the prices were pretty ridiculous. $18 for a simple Cuban sandwich? Not including something to drink? I found a little place just up the road a few miles in Geneva you could get a full dinner for a little over 10 bucks. Thanks anyway, buh--bye.

Their smoked mac and cheese will blow your mind and you can split it with someone, it's so much food. I do have to comment that I, along with my family, does not enjoy country music at all, so listening to that isn't my favorite. More disappointing, my Mother asked if they might try some other music for those who have been frequenting that location since the 50s (maybe some 50's, 60's, 70's music) and was told "that's what the staff likes, country". Where I come from, it's not about the staff, it's about the customers. Regardless, I still go because the food is just that good.

The kitchen clearly knows what it's doing, but the front-of-house needs some serious help. We began with the fried pickle chips, which were amazing--served piping hot, fresh, and perfectly seasoned. The kitchen is remarkably quick, too; almost immediately after our appetizers arrived, the staff was already at our table taking main course orders. For my entree, I ordered the chicken tenders and fries basket. The tenders were perfectly golden and incredibly crispy, served with a generous mountain of fresh crinkle-cut fries. I'd rate the tenders a solid 3.5/5--my only minor critique is that they could be a bit more generous with the dipping sauce for a portion that size. My dad also ordered a beer, which was poured beautifully with a nice head. Unfortunately, the front-of-house experience completely dragged the meal down with some glaring cleanliness and professionalism issues. I found a long hair wrapped right around the lemon wedge in my iced tea. To make matters worse, I watched the staff member pouring drinks rub her mouth right at the drink station before handling other beverages. Meanwhile, the lady behind the counter was completely disengaged, literally just scrolling on her phone instead of focusing on the dining room. The overall neglect was obvious if you looked around. Hanging directly above our dining table was a vintage wall thermometer covered in a heavy, flaking buildup of rust and grime--definitely not what you want hanging over your food. Even the bathroom was neglected, with trash and used paper towels left on the floor. If you are strictly judging by the kitchen's output, the food tastes fantastic and comes out incredibly fast. However, management desperately needs to invest in a deep clean and have a serious huddle with the staff regarding basic front-of-house hygiene.

As soon as we walked in, the welcoming atmosphere immediately stood out. The cafe has a warm, comfortable feeling that makes it a great place to sit down, relax, and enjoy a good meal. It's the kind of place where you instantly feel at ease whether you're there with friends, family, or just stopping in for a quick bite. One of the things that impressed me most was the friendly and professional staff. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with smiles and treated with great hospitality. Our server was attentive and helpful the entire time, making sure we had everything we needed without ever making us feel rushed. They were also very knowledgeable about the menu and happy to give recommendations, which made the experience even better. The food itself was outstanding. Everything we ordered came out fresh, hot, and full of flavor. You can really tell that the kitchen takes pride in the quality of the ingredients and the way each dish is prepared. The portions were generous and very satisfying, and the presentation was great as well. Every bite tasted like it was made with care, which is something that really makes a restaurant stand out. Another thing that made the experience enjoyable was the overall environment of the cafe. The dining area was clean, organized, and very inviting. The seating was comfortable and the atmosphere was calm and relaxed, which made it easy to enjoy our meal and conversation without feeling crowded or rushed. It's the kind of place where you could easily spend time catching up with friends or enjoying a quiet meal. I also appreciated the variety offered on the menu. There are plenty of options to choose from, so whether someone is in the mood for something light or a more filling meal, there is something for everyone. It's clear that the cafe tries to offer a good selection that appeals to many different tastes. Overall, Parkplace Cafe truly exceeded my expectations. Between the great food, welcoming atmosphere, and excellent service, it's easy to see why so many people enjoy coming here. Everything about the experience felt positive and well put together. I would highly recommend Parkplace Cafe to anyone in Wisconsin looking for a great place to eat. Whether you're a local or just passing through the area, it's definitely worth stopping by. I will absolutely be returning in the future, and it easily earns a well-deserved 5-star rating.

Having made reservations for 7:30pm, we arrived early and waited for our table to be ready. We made a note in our reservation for a booth on the fireplace side, and the woman (host) worked hard to make sure that happened. After sitting down, we placed in a couple appetizers. The bacon-wrapped scallops were delightful. The bacon, crispy and the scallops incredibly tender. Served with a side of drawn butter, but these were delicious on their own. As for the loaded potato puffs, we received a generous number of puffs, and each one was also very tasty. The sriracha ranch sour cream was the cherry on top. For mains, we opted in for the prime rib, and Delmonico "cowboy" cut. The prime rim was incredibly tender, juicy and perfectly seasoned. Served with a phenomenal au jus, this is the best prime rib I've ever had. I can confidently say that about the Delmonico steak as well. This 20 oz. center-cut, bone-in was grilled to the perfect requested medium-rare. Seasoned perfectly, tender and juicy. Although I didn't care much for the gorgonzola cheese sauce, the steak was amazing. We also ordered a side of lobster tail. This was also incredibly tender and really brought the meals together. To end all things, we ordered their creme brulee served in a chocolate shell. This was a great dessert, although I would have preferred the custard to be firmer, and less chocolate sauce overall. I found the generous amount of chocolate sauce on the bottom of the plate, and on top of the creme brulee, on top of the chocolate shell they're served in to be over the top. Nevertheless, we enjoyed this dessert. I want to point out, all the staff members including the owner was very kind and welcoming. From the initial host to our server Lauren, to her boss who came around to ask us how everything was, the staff are very hospitable. Add in a warm and cozy dining room area with a fireplace, this is easily a 10/10 experience for us. We will make it a point to revisit more often and not years in between.

For anyone interested in the prime rib, I highly recommend getting the 20oz (look at the picture!!) because this was massive and could easily feed two people, especially considering it comes with a side. My only regret is ordering my own meal (the Sheridan) and not splitting the prime rib with my BF. Luckily our leftovers made a great second meal. We also tried the garlic bread which was great, and I have to give a shoutout to the free bread that came at the beginning of our meal, because the sweet butter on the side was to die for. Also, love that our servers came to ask if we wanted more bread (we declined because we knew we ordered a ton of food). Finally, please get the raspberry margarita. This was the best raspberry margarita I've ever had. I wish I ordered this to start instead of the strawberry margarita, so that I could've had TWO raspberry margaritas instead of one raspberry and one strawberry. Can't wait to come back!
