Burger!
Christina S.

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!

Harper Pasta
Phoutt H.

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.

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!

House meatloaf and mac and cheese

Top notch food, service, and ambiance on the patio! We had Harper's pasta, house meatloaf with Mac and cheese, crab cakes, Wisconsin cheese curds, and flourless chocolate torte...we highly recommend this place.

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.

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!

Lake Michigan fog

We had our wedding anniversary dinner at Dawn Manor this Monday, and seeing as that is not a regular dining night for most, we didn't expect it to be as wonderful as it was. We both loved all of the history of the house and the staff let us look into all of the lovingly designed rooms before we went downstairs and had cocktails. The bartender was absolutely fantastic with both her skills and conversation and we felt so welcomed. We had two cocktails each, my favorite was the Lake Michigan Fog and my husband's was the smoked old fashioned. When we went upstairs we had a cozy table in the " haunted room " complete with a classy " happy anniversary " sign that made us feel even more special. Since we had an excellent shrimp cocktail in the bar that was so fresh and delicious, we started with salads - both the wedge and the manor salad were larger than expected and the house dressing is superb. I had the filet which they admitted to having to remake since the first didn't turn out perfect and the one they served me certainly was. We had sides of broccolini and garlic mashed potatoes that were not overly seasoned but perfectly complimented the meal. The wine list, while not too extensive, was very thoughtful as well and we had a great Cakebread Cab that was perfect with steak. While we enjoy finishing a dinner with espresso, we settled for coffee and strawberry shortcake, and they even sent us home with a chocolate mousse as a gift. It was a wonderful evening we won't forget.

Wedge salad and truffle fries

I came here when they first opened with my husband and everything we had was fine but every menu item was a bit complicated for his taste. He's a basic steak and potatoes kind of guy. I came a second time by myself and I think that'll be the last trip for me. I went pretty early on a weeknight. They sat me in a corner at the with a family right next to me even though the room had other empty tables (they were so close they bumped into my table when they got up to leave). I eat out alone pretty frequently and don't usually mind a small space but when the restaurant is half empty, they shouldn't be seating anyone in a corner at a table so small it could barely fit the relish tray, a salad and an order of fries. I was there for girl dinner with a book and wound up listening to this family's entire meal. The food was good, and I know this is a place meant for groups and celebrations but I still won't be back.

The house specialty.....

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.

Recently had my first experience at The Del-bar and so enjoyed it!…read more The Del-bar is a supper club type spot in Lake Delton mixing up great classic cocktails and supper club fare in a chic dining room. For my cocktail, I got a classic bourbon Manhattan served up. It was pitch perfect. For my dinner, I got the scallops where were saucy and seared to absolute perfection (not something everyone gets right--they do). For dessert, my dining companion and I shared a slice of their peanut butter cream pie, which was, of course--a delight. Chocolate crust meets rich peanut buttery cream pie with chocolate sauce and chopped peanuts on top. Truly, what's not to love? Our server was kind and attentive throughout. Get to it!

We made a reservation for our 25th wedding anniversary and it was definitely needed, the place was…read morepacked! Our table for two was not relaxing (and yes, we stated the special occasion for our visit when booking). There were constantly people brushing against our table whilst trying to get between our table and the next and around the servers. We didn't order any apps as we were hoping to save room for dessert. For entrees I went with the 8 oz filet mignon with béarnaise sauce, cooked medium-rare, creamy mashed potatoes, and clam chowder soup. My husband selected the 14 oz boneless ribeye with hash browns, and a salad with hot bacon dressing. My steak was phenomenal--cooked and seasoned perfectly, and so extremely tender--while the clam chowder and creamy mashed potatoes were nothing to write home about. My hubby loved his steak and was so happy to dine somewhere that properly cooks and seasons a steak, and he also raved about his salad and hash browns (he especially loved the crispy top of the hash browns). We did order a purple mouse dessert drink which was also yummy. Our server was very mechanical. The staff clearing the table and re-setting between courses cared a lot more and were way more personable than she was, but I get everyone has an off night and last night must have been hers. Will we come back? We'll see . . . we're off to Ishnala next.
