if you're searching for an adult evening out while visiting the Dells - this is the place. Enjoyed an amazing meal with excellent service from our waitress Morgan. Flavors for everything were top-notch, from the appetizer to the entrée + the desserts. I particularly recommend the walleye. read more

What a fun new spot in the Dells. It was easy to find and nicely updated. This place is huge. We went up a grand staircase to our table. Service was friendly and food was really good! Lots of options. The Wisconsin brandy old fashioned was delicious! The cheese curds were perfection. The burger was enormous but nice quality meat. We will be making this a regular stop in the Dells! read more

I love historic homes and restaurants that are unique. This place caught my eye on our way back to our hotel. We didn't have a reservation and was able to get in and seated in a room of our choosing...the Haunted Room! The staff was very friendly and welcoming. Our waitress was on her first day and we couldn't even tell. We ordered coffee which was deliciously rich and smooth. I am picky with coffee and this one was perfect. I would say the salmon was better than at another well known supper club in the same area. The Manor Salad was a huge portion with fresh spring mix, a lot of candied walnuts, and the salmon add on was full filet. I had the Harper Pasta which had quite a bit of shrimp and a large portion of pasta. Overall, a great experience and beautiful place to enjoy a nice meal. read more

We drove by this place last year when it was still in the construction phase so for sure wanted to try this place out on our weekend trip. We were here on Friday night, was a bit surprised they didn't have a fish fry special but was not a big deal. I'd heard portions were large so knowing me and my sister both wanted the meatloaf, I suggested splitting it. We also tacked on the loaded potato soup, wedge salad and the brussel sprouts. Everything was so good! The wedge salad came with a ton of crumbled bleu cheese, iceberg lettuce was crisp and cold, perfect. Loaded potato soup was delicious. The brussel sprouts were plentiful, flavorful, and crispy. The cheese stuffed meatloaf was really good, placed on top of mashed potatoes and topped with mac and cheese, plus veggies. Loved seeing the mocktail section. I got the demure mule and my sister got the peach Collins. We enjoyed both. Service was great. We liked starting out with a sample of their dream soda, butterscotch flavor. The restaurant is beautiful. There are a variety of rooms to be seated in. We were seated upstairs. I was surprised that the bathrooms were near the speakeasy in basement. With it being new construction, I would have thought each floor would have had bathrooms. There is also a cute gift shop. Definitely check this place out! read more

There were a lot of hits at this new hot spot in the Dells. Parking lot is open and grounds are beautiful as you enter. Downstairs speakeasy is very cool and fun. We sat upstairs by the window and were thankful that we had a great spot. Prime rib and walleye were delicious. Waitstaff were good at their jobs. A few misses: downstairs bathroom smelled very musty. No rolls, crackers, or homemade bread of any kind offered. We were celebrating a special occasion and no perks or fun treats were given or acknowledged. There is a lot of potential for this space and it was a fun experience, but other spots in the Dells might compete on a higher level when it comes to a special night out. read more

This has to be a Wisconsin Dells gem! They just opened up earlier this year, and someone in our group found this place and made a reservation for a party of 8, including two children. As you walk in, you'll see a gift shop, and the maître d's post directly facing the door. You're then shown to your table - they have dining rooms in the main floor as well as the upper floor. Their bathrooms are down in the basement next to the speakeasy bar. Their menu offers a lot of classic American and hearty variety, ranging from prime ribs, to meatloaf with Mac n cheese, to salmon dishes. The top favorite was the prime rib (this is a MUST TRY!) and the salmon dish was great! The Mac n cheese and meatloaf was also a classic. They offer some good appetizers and desserts. I definitely recommend! read more

Have been here many times since they opened, and have tried nearly everything on the menu and really enjoyed the place. Unfortunately this visit was underwhelming. The $32 Honest Abe meatloaf was not good, potato soup had a single chunk of potsto in it and the steak crostini had an odd flavor. Unlike many diners who have a subpar experience, I made a point to give a heads up to the manager. Bad move. After being curtly offered a free desert, removal of entree charge, replacement, etc. (all declined, I wasn't looking for a freebie) I was then informed that he has opened 93 restaurants, apparently I must be in the wrong. While the issues with the food wouldn't prevent me from returning, the s arky attitude we received will have us spending our money in the Dells' other restaurants. Note: they did remove the charge for the entree and soup, which was kind. read more

Dawn Manor - The house specialty..... - American Near Me - Baraboo, Wisconsin

Love a good speakeasy so stopped in after dinner for a drink. From the moment we walked through the door the service was amazing. Three moms with three teen girls we sat down and had mocktails they loved and fun adult drinks. Don't pass this place up, will stay for dinner next time! read more

I wanted to love it. I think it needs something extra. Inside it just looks like a beautiful home. Make it funky or make it eclectic. Or make it colorful. I don't know but - as is - just a home. The food. Same. I had the prime rib (under seasoned. No horseradish.) and basic mashed potatoes. Had the soup of the day and it was luke warm and basic. Manor salad was delish, asked for extra goat cheese but was disappointed with quantity still. I don't want to be a hater so really what I'm getting at is that this place has the potential to be an incredible spot. Ambiance needs an edge of mystery or intrigue. Food needs to be seasoned better and a little bit more unexpected (menu is safe and predictable). Maybe give me a live musician or some funky mood music. Good luck to the owners and chefs. But. Give us a little bit of zest and excitement and I'll be back! read more

Just traveling thru on business & found Dawn Manor. Ate in the bar as a single. Herman was amazing for conversation & a treat that made my dinner. They should be proud to have him as an employee. I had the best salmon I've ever had. The hoy honey nails it! W the leaks & Boursin topper!! A killer ceasar side salad & corn crem brulle for dessert. Dawn Manor isn't just reheating food like the chains in town. It's truly a great meal. read more

Went here twice. First time Prime Rib was excellent. Second time I ordered Filet mignon. The filet was not what was expected. I'm used to a thick cut of filet. What I received was a flat piece of meat. read more

We went there for lunch during the week. The service and staff were great. I got the demure mule, very ginger forward. I love ginger, so it was perfect. We shared the steak crostini, which was really good. My husband ordered the uppy burger and I had the cheesesteak. There are fries in the cheesesteak, I guess I forgot that when ordering because I got fries on the side. I should have gotten the potato salad instead. Both entrees were good. We really enjoyed the history and seeing original photos of Dawn Manor. We had a good lunch! read more

I can't tell you how disappointed we are in our first visit to Dawn Manor. I should say we were embarrassed for them for this dining experience. We went in with high expectations and looked forward to a wonderful experience. Unfortunately we have dubbed it the Haunted Mansion rather than Dawn Manor. I assume this was a very bad late Saturday afternoon for them but hard to believe it was an isolated event. With reservations in hand, we arrived early and had a great drink with the bartender Germany at the smaller bar. Very nice drink, atmosphere and Germany was great to chat with. After that it was a steep drop of a cliff. Our waitress greeted us and she was obviously drunk and incoherent. I can't imagine how the management team let her serve anyone. Unfortunate. Started with the Shrimp Tower which is a nice presentation but for $25 for 6 medium shrimps and not enough sauce... very disappointing. The ribeye was full of gristle. The au gratin potatoes were a very small serving. The chicken was very small. Lastly, the salad was served without dressing. Unfortunate outing, 3 meals, a confused and drowsy, slurring waitress and a $200 bill. The place was filling up and did not want to make a compliant with a busy front house crew. What good would of done and we just wanted to leave at this point. Paid bill and left, found it difficult to believe this happened with high expectations and other people who left strong Yelp reviews. Hope they clean this up because it is a nice location and facility. read more

Dawn Manor - Shrimp Tower - American Near Me - Baraboo, Wisconsin

Was our first time. We went for the happy hour. It was excellent the restaurant is extremely clean and well run. The service is excellent the appetizers were outstanding and the bar staff friendly and attentive. We plan on going back to try dinner. It's nice to finally see a good upscale place in the area. read more

What an amazing place! Decor was just as expected, they had old newspapers and pictures framed with descriptions all over the restaurant which were very fun to read. The speakeasy is in the basement and although it's not very secretive, it definitely looks as a speakeasy should! Food was amazing, I had the ribeye with lobster and garlic mash, the mashed potatoes were good, but not very warm, steak and lobster was cooked perfectly, the presentation was neat. Service was very good, our server who's name was Onur and the manager did a great job of making sure our food and experience was good. I am a local and will be coming back in the near future! My bill was very large, but it was worth every dollar! read more

Dawn Manor - 14oz Ribeye with Lobster and Garlic mash - American Near Me - Baraboo, Wisconsin

Pretty much everything was at best a 3. Service was kinda slow, never asked if we wanted a second drink (wouldn't have had one, but still). We had pot pie and the hamburger. Pot pie was good, hamburger is nearly impossible to eat as a hamburger need to use fork and knife and way to expensive for what it is. Ambiance is very nice except it is very loud upstairs. We could barely communicate across the table. Not in a hurry to go back, but pretty sure we will at some point. Always believe in second chances. read more

Had a fabulous evening from the well trained, personable wait staff to the fabulous food. I will definitely go back when in the area.

Just ate here - this place is killer. Everything we had was perfect. Great service, really nice place too. I hope it flourishes.

The appetizers were really good but the entrees we got were lacking seasoning and leaning very bland. Service was alright. The ambiance of the place is very pretty and inviting. read more

Our first time stumbling into Dawn Manor and our experience was phenomenal. We enjoyed the adult beverages, Cheese Curds, the Lobster Mac, the Harper's Pesto Pasta and the Ribeye, Pop Rocks Cheesecake and Creme Brûlée were fantastic. Great meal. Highly satisfied. Highly recommended. read more

We had the Walleye and Amish Chicken. Both were excellent! We sat in the Raab Room on the top floor which was full and very noisy, and we were seated at a small table close to the back stairs. They were also out of filet, which was what I originally intended to have for dinner. All of this is why I rated a 4 and not 5, but the restaurant is beautiful, the food service quick, and the staff super friendly. Likely just some new opening bumps to overcome but the food is top notch, and we will absolutely be back. Even though reservations were booked, it looked like plenty of walk in space with no waiting, so don't hesitate to just drop in. A wonderful addition to the Dells. read more

We went for brunch - everyone loved it. The ambiance is so unique and the building has been beautifully restored. Staff was friendly, welcoming, and quick to replenish drinks. Food came at a perfect time. We will definitely be back! read more

Yes! A definite yes! If you're like me and like new restaurants which smell and look amazing and are not run down, this is a place for you. This restaurant is where history meets charm, a place with great esthetics, with a story to tell. Super attentive and well trained, friendly staff and food cooked with love. Stop by and visit this gem in Baraboo! We came across this while traveling on I90 from MN. Usually it's in and out type of a dinner when we travel, but when we got here, we did not want to leave. The greeters were attentive. Our server Dim was super impressive. As someone who worked in the restaurant I can tell that the management puts a lot of time into training. We had an amazing experience from start to finish. We are marking this to be our spot for trips on I 90. Try their cheese curds, prime rib bruschetta. They can hold a private party, have a lovely back deck where you can dine. A speakeasy bar for those who crave some mystery in their life. You might want to stay... read more

Unique small dining rooms. Nice food options. Cute mini desserts. Server was busy but friendly. My salad with salmon was huge. Took home over half for lunch the next day. read more

Loved the food. We had the pork and the meatloaf. Both were excellent. Fabulous ambience and extraordinary service. Enjoyed some after dinner drinks in the speakeasy. read more

Dawn Manor - Pork chop - American Near Me - Baraboo, Wisconsin

Amazing, cannot wait to come back. I'm making a statement and I don't take this lightly...best prime rib in Wisconsin...Boom, mic drop, prove me wrong, you can't, 9.5 prime rib, wasn't a 10 only because I'm mad at myself for not ordering the 22oz one vs the 16oz. Best prime rib in Wisconsin. read more

Service for 4 was Friday 8/15, 6:30pm. Wrong drinks delivered, 2/4 "looked" right so they were tested, all were wrong. Mushroom side was very salty, I did not eat it all. The wild rice was soft/overcooked, did not have that made fresh flavor or Al dente consistency. Caesar salad w/chicken was not dressed (we didn't say anything). We'll come back to try more dishes. We are from Reedsburg, would like more choice other than our favorites Ishnala and Del Bar. Both have a lot of what you got. Let the competition begin! read more

Showed up 5/27 @ 8:45pm website shows dining open until 10pm. Receptionist said chefs are gone for the day and kitchen is closed. Please update your website to 9pm. Not a good first impression. read more

Our lunch was wonderful. I had the Prime Rib Sandwich and my wife had the Lobster Roll Sandwich. Both were great. Server was very helpful and friendly and shared some background on the relocation of the restaurant. The interior is impeccably decorated with artwork and furnishings from the original Dawn Manor on Lake Delton. Every room is unique and has its own character and history. The Speakeasy downstairs is loaded with antiques and memorabilia from the past. Great to have another fine dining experience option in the Dells! read more

Best restaurant experience in a long time. At Dawn Manor you're not a customer, you're a treasured guest from the greeter who held the door open for us to the Manager coming by our table to inform us of the history of the Manor. His were very interesting story's about famous historical figures. The main event, the food, is outstanding. My wife had the prime rib and I had the filet mignon. Both were cooked to perfection and tasted wonderful! My filet was crusty on the outside and pink in the middle, perhaps the best ever! We surely plan on making the three hour drive from Chicago to patronize Dawn Manor again. Finally, Dawn Manor accepts reservations. So, if you don't want to wait two hours for that other popular place a few blocks down the street, go to Dawn Manor. You won't regret it! read more

We just got back and it was a great experience. A new waiter was being trained and he was very friendly and attentive. We split the steak crostini' which was very good. My wife got the lobster mac & cheese, which was excellent and I chose the prime rib for my dinner. Which was the best prime I've ever had. The scallop potatoes with leeks are great. We split a molten lava cake it's was very yummy. I like chocolate. We were in the Frank Lloyd Wright room, which is very interesting. read more

We went here on a Thursday night with a group of 8. We were seated immediately and also drinks were delivered immediately. Plenty of staff to take care of our needs and all staff very friendly and personable. For apps we ordered the deviled eggs and dates...beyond delicious! Out server Annamarie was a delight and very good! My husband and I ordered the Abe Lincoln Meatloaf dish and it was out of this world! The rest of our party enjoyed their dishes and we all agreed the best food we've had in the dells. We all went downstairs to the Speakeasy bar afterwards and were met again with outstanding servers who were personable and entertaining. Bee and Adam were a lot of fun. I smiled at this place from beginning to end. We will definitely be back and all the other restaurants in the area better watch out because there is a new competitor in town and they are blowing it out of the water! read more

The restaurant itself is one of a kind. Great ambiance, great service, great food. The way a prime rib should taste! They have some delightfully different items on their menu. This place will be added to our (my wife and I) place to go when we want to feel fancy. Definitely will recommend this restaurant to anyone I talk to. Truthfully amazing! The service was top notch and timely, always willing to make our experience as perfect as possible. The speakeasy in the basement is cozy and perfect for a date night. read more

Adam at Uphoffs is one of the best bartenders I've seen here in The Dells, he's very attentive, great personality, and great with customers. Atmosphere is awesome, great place to get a small bite to eat and get some drinks. read more

What a wonderful addition to the Dells! Great food, drinks and service! Don't miss the beautiful deck overlooking the dam in the back! Being surrounded by trees and the sound of rushing water transports you to the Dells area as it was when this historic home was built! read more

We really enjoyed our dinner at Dawn Manor. Two of us prefer to eat gluten-free. This was not a problem at all. All phases of our dinner were excellent, drinks, apps and mains, as well as service. I would not hesitate to recommend read more

We tried Dawn Manor for the first time. It was just ok. We were sat in the upstairs area. It was loud and hard to hear. We were given a free shot/drink that was famous to the story of the house. Very sweet. I'd rather bread service or relish tray vs. the drink. Our meals were good. We both had prime rib. It was ok. Not stellar. The potato casserole was bad. Probably won't go back with Del Bar close by. read more

Really great experience. All food was very unique and great flavors. Shrimp tower was definitely a new way for shrimp appetizer with a really tasty horseradish sauce. Prime rib perfect. Great reconstruction of old dells landmark, really nice speakeasy bar and various rooms to dine and great outdoor dining. Premium dining well worth it! Great service. read more

The food, service,and atmosphere is calming and delicious food. Dim is the best server ever

Stopped by mid afternoon and visited the speakeasy, a downstairs bar with appetizers. The actual bar was rebuilt from a 1930s Chicago speakeasy.. excellent higher end fine dining. We tried crabcakes with homemade remoulade sauce, steak crostini and homemade Boursin cheese. I had a large generous, poor, bloody Mary with olives and a sidecar of beer. It was terrific. The bartenders are friendly and outgoing. Staff was just wonderful. Can't wait to go back. read more
