Smoked Mac n cheese with chicken
Tim M.

The food was decent. My wife had the ABLT was very good I had the smoked Mac and cheese with chicken. Was fair but the slow cook times could be improved. Not even a half full restaurant at 4 pm.

We were passing through on our way home as we were traveling from Minnesota and my husband saw this restaurant on Yelp. We stopped and so glad we did. The building itself is so unique. The Silo Bar is cool looking and quaint. It was pretty busy for a Sunday morning but our party of three got seated as soon as we walked in the door. We had our waters and coffee. Coffee is a bit strong but they do have vanilla creamer. Also, I dropped my knife on the floor and before I could even pick it up, someone was over to our table giving me new silverware. I didn't even have to ask. My husband and I got the Wisconsin Skillet. Our server recommended it as I was torn between so many great sounding choices. The bratwurst was mild and the dish had crispy onions and green peppers. I don't like my vegetables soggy so this was delightful. The multi grain bread was fresh. My husband had sourdough and said it was also delicious. My brother in law got scrambled eggs, with bacon, hash browns and multi grain toast, he said his eggs were cooked perfectly. If we were staying in the area, we would go back and try dinner and drinks. Nice atmosphere, great service and even better food.

Cracker crust
Jody L.

Nice place but was disappointed with the food. Had the Hayfire shrimp as an appetizer. Really good but could have been presented better as it seemed small for the price. Had high hopes for the pizza but it was a big letdown. Highly doubt the crust was handmade. Thin cardboard style and taste. Was similar to the ones you buy in a package at the grocery store. Was almost like a saltine cracker. The bar is nice.

Pamplemousse fizz and brandy old fashioned (sweet, not sour)

This restaurant offers better food than many fancy restaurants in the Chicagoland area. The menu features fresh, local food from salmon to cheese to some of the liquor brands available. This is the best salmon I've had at a restaurant in years and I loved the pairing with puréed parsnips. The kids chose burgers and said they were some of the best they've had. My fiancée chose the beef short ribs with a mushroom sauce and pasta and it was amazing! Our server was really helpful and checked back on us often so we were never without cocktails...er...I mean, water. There's a cool bar in a giant, attached silo that we sent visit because we had the kids along. I look forward to coming here again and highly recommend folks stop here while in the Dells!

Dry country chopped steak and eggs. I like my over hard...these came out over easy

I was so excited to try this restaurant attached to our hotel, but unfortunately, our waiter ruined the experience for us. She approached our table with an attitude from the start. She messed up our orders, and when we pointed it out, she didn't apologize. The restaurant is cute, and their pancakes are very good. Unfortunately, I didn't get a picture of them. I ordered the steak and potatoes. My steak was very dry, but the potatoes were good. Needless to say, I won't be visiting this place again. When I dine out, I'm not just paying for the food, I'm also paying for good service. I still tipped her 20%, even though she probably thought I wasn't going to.

Really nice interior. Huge booths and lots of seating. We came in for breakfast and it wasn't crowded and was seated immediately. The food was good and portions were average. The prices were a bit high for what we received but we felt the quality was there. The time to get food was on the slower side. The server however was great.

Herb crusted Icelandic cod
Amanda K.

It's was pretty busy on a Friday night but the service was still super quick. Ashley did a great job taking care of us! The food was really good. The cod was light and flaky. My only note is it could have been a bit hotter, it came out like warm, but it was still tasty.

This restaurant was such a good pick. The food and service were great. We were greeted the moment we walked in and sat as soon as our whole party arrived. The food was so good and our waitress Gabby was friendly and helpful when we asked questions about the menu. We ordered the French opinion soup, the silo burger( not pictured because my husband dug in before I had a chance. I had a bite. It was good!), blue berry cheese cake and the carrot cake. The blueberry cheesecake was ordinary compared to the carrot cake. Get the carrot cake! Also it's not pictured because we all dug in lol. My other family members ordered the fried chicken which is also a must! Perfected seasoned, juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside. That is a shareable meal. In all, we enjoyed our experience here and would come back. Ok on our second to last day in the Dells and we ordered 5 fried chicken meals and some carrot cake to go. So I was able to add a photo of the carrot cake

Updated with pics of menus with pricing. Beautiful facility, great staff, excellent food

Eggs Benedict
Nick P.

Sarah is awesome. Friendly and open to comments and conversation. Felt like home. Great breakfast. Eggs Benedict was yummy with arugula! Kids enjoyed the French toast and pancakes and skillet was the bomb. Reccomends!

Entrance to the building

Food was amazing and you can tell it's fresh. I recommend the French onion soup and Nana's cheese bread. The service however... not so great. Our waitress came and asked us what we wanted to drink while we were still pulling our chairs out to sit down so we hadn't even looked at the menus yet, she also asked if we wanted an appetizer.. also haven't looked at the menu yet. That's not a huge deal because fast service can be a plus but it was her coming to ask if we were ready to order yet 5 minutes later. And then another 5 minutes later. It made us feel like we were being rushed and they wanted us out of there. Other than that, the vibe is good, you can dress casual so no need to worry about what you're wearing. Can't wait to check out the rooftop bar next time!

Cheese curds
Brandon O.

This place is a vibe! In one weekend, I've came back twice! Both of my visits I chose to sit outside to enjoy the beautiful weather -- first night included live music! Different servers each night, both provided phenomenal, attentive, quick service! Forgot the name from the first, but second one was Johnathan. Manager even walks around and greets guests, realizing I had just been there the day prior mentioning "Welcome Back!". Food turned out great as well -- DO NOT miss out on the amazing cheese curds (had to order those each day!) I had the luxury of staying at The Wisconsin Hotel which made this location a no brainer, service was the cherry on top.

It was quiet Monday morning, not busy, nice atmosphere, plenty of room, no waiting, I had a typical scrambled egg, bacon, hash, brown breakfast, it was good, coffee was good, service was good.

Del Bar knocked it out of the park the other night for my niece's 40th birthday! This was probably…read moremy favorite meal during my entire trip to Wisconsin. I love a good supper club and the Del Bar is just such a place. Drinks made precisely and with passion, perfectly cooked food and outstanding service. We were a larger group so we had two servers taking care of us. We ordered a range of appetizers including some amazing fried cheese curds. I also had a wedge salad, a new york strip cooked perfectly and then for dessert they made me a root beer float. Was it on the menu? Nope. But they were kind enough to fulfill a craving I had been having all day! Del Bar is what I loved about living in Wisconsin. There are these local places that still care about the food and service they provide and people show up for it night after night! Thank you Del Bar!

Oh Del bar. How far you've fallen. We've been coming to Del bar multiple times a year since 2005…read more This was our place. Arrived for our reservation 10 minutes early to be seated 30 minutes late. It was insanely packed. They have expanded so much but can't seem to manage their reservations. Parties of the same size were seated before us even though they arrived after. What's missing they will never get back. The shits out of the horse and you can't put it back in, no matter how hard you try. The feeling of the original Del Bar is gone. Along with all of the familiar long time faces we've recognized. Especially the bartender we befriended who created the Del bars espresso martini as it is now. Congrats Del Bar. You're not special any longer. Just another Chicago steakhouse or another dells attraction. The charm is gone.
