If you know Steny's Lake Country, you already expect a good time--and this newer location (only about 2 years old) delivers, even though it's tucked into a corporate park. Don't let that throw you off--it's super easy to find and the parking lot is a huge plus (no circling like downtown). We stopped in for their Derby party and it was a blast. Fun games, great energy, and an overall lively atmosphere that made it feel like an event, not just a night out. Food-wise, we kept it classic: cheese curds and the lobster dip--both were really good. The curds hit that perfect crispy/cheesy balance, and the lobster dip felt a little elevated but still totally shareable and worth it. I'd definitely go back again, but next time I'd probably pick a less busy time so we can relax a bit more and try more of the menu. The atmosphere was great during the event, but it'd be nice to experience it on a more laid-back visit too. read more

Came in an hour before the kitchen closed. Ordered Friday night fish fry received three super small fish sticks. Way over cooked and barely chewable. The food was TERRIBLE. I ate half. When I told the waiter the food was bad he said it's late and they don't care. Upon leaving, the host asked if he could make it up to me. I declined. I wanted a good dinner not a chance to eat another bad dinner again. Needless to say, I will not be returning. read more

I've been to plenty of bars and restaurants, but Marleah provided some of the best service I've ever experienced. From the moment we sat down, she was friendly, attentive, professional, and genuinely made us feel welcome. She's an excellent bartender, but what really stood out was the way she connected with everyone around the bar. She was constantly moving, taking care of people, and somehow still made every customer feel like they were her priority. She absolutely shined behind the bar. Great drinks, great personality, and truly exceptional service. People like Marleah are what make you want to come back to a place again and again. Steny's is lucky to have her. If you're there, ask for Marleah -- she's the real deal! read more

Stopped in on a Thursday afternoon to try the chicken wings which I've heard a lot about. Thought Thursday was wing day but it starts at 6pm, unfortunately I missed out on the special and paid the $1.50 each instead of $1.00 each. Placed an order for wings, went with medium heat and although they were very meaty and tasty, the dry rub left me wanting a sauced rub even though I did order both blue cheese and ranch dressings. Note that all dressings and should you desire carrots or celery are extra costs, a pricy wing day. Anyways we had great service sitting at the bar with a large selection beers and we will likely return to the very pleasant sports bar atmosphere. read more

Steny’s Tavern And Grill - Chicken Wings - medium rub - Beer Bar Near Me - Pewaukee, Wisconsin

Tl;dr Loud, mediocre food (at best), too expensive, lackluster service, questionable ethics 1st time eating here and had high expectations. It was extremely loud, so much that my wife and I had to almost yell to one another. The waitress was nice enough but it was obvious she was disinterested in whether or not we were having a good experience (never inquired about whether the food was ok). My wife ordered the fish fry. 3 skinny pieces of cod with too much breading and almost no flavor, fries were soggy and cold, novelty sized bread was ok and the coleslaw wasn't terrible. I ordered 6 Cajun wings and Reuben rolls. The wings were not hot (temp or spice) and the "Cajun" rub tasted way off.. almost had a pizza sauce flavor. The carrots and celery came in a puddle of water and the ranch was very runny (both were extra charges). The Reuban rolls were hot but far from crispy (read rubbery) but had good flavor and the house made 1000 island was ok (surprised they didn't charge extra for that as well). When our server brought the bill, it was about what we expected. However.. the way they purposefully pressure customers to tip is just wrong. She runs my card on her point of sale device (additional 3% tacked on) and hovers next to me as the "suggested tip" screen pops up. Minimum suggested tip is 25%. So with her right there any regular person would feel crappy not giving their version of the minimum suggested. We will never be back. Many places in the area charge less for better service and far better food. read more

Food - 4 stars, burger and fries were tasty. Ambiance - 5 stars. Ate at bar. Watched hockey while eating. What could be better? Service - nice people. Burger took too long to arrive. Fries heavy w/ salt. My bummer was pulling out a napkin from the cady finding a little squiggly item in there. Need more disciplined cleaning. $30 for a burger, beer, tip seems high. Bon appetite. read more

Fry Fish Fry - 3 pieces of COD * Cod pieces were about 1-1.5" wide with about ¼" breading around them. TASTELESS & greasy. * pumpernickel bread: 2 pieces about 2" wide (tiny) * Fries - terrible dry and hard * All this for a $20 fish fry - WAY OVERPRICED Wings - both orders of 6 wings were NOT crispy but mushy (and I had asked for EXTRA crispy even though they advertise that they are "crispy"). * Dry rub lucky 13 wings - SALTY * Naked wings - much better * At almost $10 per 6 wings, not great quality * They don't take phone orders at all, and their app doesn't allow you to place an order after 5pm - but doesn't tell you, it keeps prompting you to pay. I tried to place the order about 5 times (using Apple pay repeatedly but it kept coming back with that pickup time is not available - pickup times are NOT selectable). * They tack on 4% for to-go orders but they don't tell you until you see the final bill. This did NOT show up on my attempts at ordering and paying on-line. * They tack on 3% for credit card payments. We went in and had a drink and placed the "to-go" order. There were mostly female bartenders, most with not much more than enhanced panties on (nothing under them). Very uncomfortable. read more

I really like the vibe, everything seems new and clean, TVs everywhere. We went when Marquette was playing so it was LOUD. service was quick and food was pretty good. My uncle ordered meat loaf and it looked gross cause it came with melted cheese on it, but that's on him for not reading the description. I thought my burger was good, I had the Tex mex burger, it was delicious and messy. read more

At first, I was so excited to try this place as friends had recommended their fish fry, but it was Saturday so we ordered off the regular menu and I thought the steak fajita bowl would be a good choice. Almost every bite had to be spit out as there were chunks of fat And very hard chunks! The meatloaf was very mushy and tasted like there were a lot of fillers versus beef. The pretzel was the best part and the service. The Blanco sauce tasted out of a jar, but it was still good. I probably wouldn't return, but it looks popular with the locals. read more

We came across this place as we were boarding our dog over at Barkin up Hickory. It is tucked away right by there. It has a huge parking lot and a very large building with high tops and some ventures to sit at. The service was super quick. Our server was very friendly and helpful. My husband was craving a Reuben and it was prepared without any dairy on it. It was sensational. There is a clubhouse room with an arcade for kids or grown-ups. Lots of awesome choices for your food meat. This is a great place for families and for groups. The pretzel was huge and delicious! read more

We are new to the area and a neighbor told us about Steny's..especially their Smash Burgers She was right! The burgers were awesome Bartender was very knowledgeable about menu as was our waitress. We will definitely be returning read more

First time at Steny's Lake Country. I agree with all the reviews that it's super loud in here. They need to add some noise dampening panels or something. The food was ok, the food at the downtown location is much better. Would like to see a nice patio added in the future. The game room is pretty small but it kept the kids entertained while we waited for our food. read more

Had an amazing fish fry tonight! The pan seared cod was awesome! I didnt miss getting fried at all. Also, loved their potato pancakes. My friend had the Lake Perch and she said it was the best in the area. Light breading and big pieces. Service was excellent too. Friendly and efficient server. read more

We hosted our rehearsal dinner here last week and everything was perfect!!! Between the food, staff and overall experience I could not have asked for anything better. So many people said how attentive the staff was and how delicious the food was. Whether you're coming for date night, family dinner or hosting a larger group, 10000/10 recommend! Highly recommend the crab Rangoon pizza and dip, you will not be disappointed. read more

I've been to Steny's a couple of times and I've always thought it loud but my friends like it so I tend to go along. But the last time there, I was over charged and when I went to point it out to the big boy bartender with the backwards baseball hat and bad attitude, he took my bill looked at it, slammed it down in front of me and then ignored me. He didn't want to hear it and refused to deal with the situation. There are way too many other places I can go that treat me better, won't be rude and actually want my business. Never again. Bars are a dime a dozen -- get it right or someone else will. Period. read more

Totally a great experience. Nothing disappointed other than please get Real Coke and Diet Coke. It really does matter to non drinkers. I brought in 8 people . Everyone loved there meals. But a couple non drinkers were disappointed in the Cola. If you are saving a few pennys is it really worth losing a return customer? read more

First time, wayyyyyy toooooooo loud, so we left - 2nd time on Sunday and we asked for a quieter, less people area and because it was not as crowded, it was quieter. First, SNOOKIE or SNOOKY was our waitstaff person and was quick, efficient and knew her menu. She also talked a bit with her suggestions for both our ordering and for the restaurant which is a Sports Bar. Huge. She made the day and the food was very good. The prices were comparable with places in the city. I'll go back. No brunch menu, FYI - check out the menu on website. read more

Stopped by for an early dinner after Dr appointment and we were pleased with the inviting dining area! Lots of sports in big beautiful TV's. We had delicious entrees. I had the Stenys burger wrap. Excellent!! Like a big Mac but in a wrap. Not overly done. And delicious fries. Hubby had the fried chicken sandwich. Very delicious as well. I had a "Watermelon slice" as my drink. So tasty. It reminded me of a jolly rancher candy. Hubby had a River West Stein beer. Watched the Brewers game! Excellent music as well. Our server, Skyler, was so sweet. We talked about the different things planned for this new location. We waited so long for it to open. Worth the wait! read more

We don't often go to bars to watch sporting events, but had occasion to try to catch 3 events at once with friends & figured a Sports Bar was the best way to do it...Had a great time, the server (Snookie!) was Amazing & made for such a fun afternoon! The drinks were reasonable, pub food was great & they were as accomodating as they could be when we asked them to put our 1 of our 3 events on the tv near us. Will definitely return (dill pickle pizza & crab rangoon pizza!) and hope to be able to have the same server. So much fun! read more

I have dined here twice both times with many glitches. Let's start from the top, I was seated but I waited 8 minutes after that before a server acknowledged my presence. Next, I ordered A flavored Ice Tea and that took 6 minutes to arrive; granted it was moderately busy (and I have been in the food industry for 30 years know) but this can get you a little punchy. Next the food, it was Friday and I was told to try the Fish Fry, and that I did. I ordered the Cod fries, and Cole slaw. So my server left to place the order and waiting game began. Thirty five minutes past with no server in sight or drink refill, I did go to the bar and get one on my own. Fouty five minutes past and the food arrived, the anticipation was killing me. Drum roll, The fish was hot but overly salty, the fries were hot yet flavorless and coleslaw was runny and blaw. I was missing lemon which I asked for but never received. Many flips and flops that a FOH Manager should document and bring up a daily Production Meetings to help make changes in the future. Overall not to bad. read more

This is a great place to go watch a game and the food is really good. DO NOT sit at the bar, the service is abysmal.

Still a little too loud in here but decided on a pizza. Unfortunately I won't do that again. Terrible pizza. A frozen grocery store pizza would have been better! The crust was like a soggy cardboard and the toppings very far and few between. Priced rather high as well for something so mediocre. read more

Big time impressed! We came out for dinner after the NFL Draft and I know there had buses that went there and figured it would be busy, but man, it was packed! Still, we got a table for two right off and were served quickly and courteously by Therese. Food was delicious. I had the smash burger. My husband had the Molly cheesesteak. Both delish! WE WILL COME BACK. Go! What are you waiting for? read more

Our party was promptly seated but we left immediately because the venue was too loud to hear each other. Too many hard surfaces and zero attention to acoustics. I know it's commonplace for newer restaurants to make the environment uncomfortable so diners don't linger. Mission accomplished! So we departed to an old school place where the setting was more comfortable. Outside dining is also unavailable at Steny's but could very easily see them ruining that with loud music or TV. read more

Jen is amazing!! Along with the food. We had wings. Lucky 13 dry rub is a favorite. We'll definitely be back. read more

My wife and I went there for dinner and they wouldn't seat us because they didn't have a table for two. Plenty of tables for four but was told that they had to wait for bigger groups to use those tables and we would have to wait. Sounds like they want to make money and not care about customers being seated appropriately. We were regulars there, don't think we'll be coming back. read more

We went for lunch on a Thursday and it wasn't that busy. I really wanted to like this place but the food was terrible, but the beer was good. Nice inside but better places for food in the area. I needed a Sawzall to cut my chicken sandwich in half as it was burned. Steak wrap with no steak as well. Maybe just stick to pizzas as those are hard to screw up. read more

Awesome large bar and great atmosphere. They remodeled this place and it is a really nice upgrade from the what was there previously. Unfortunately, the food did not impress. Everything was over seasoned to such a degree it was a turnoff. The wings were cooked to perfection. However we tried multiple sauces and didn't like any of them. We eat wings often and this has never been an issue elsewhere. Hand cut fries would have been good if it wasn't for the excessive seasoning on those as well. People on both sides of us sent their clearly overcooked burgers back. Would definitely stop in for a drink or to watch a game but would not eat here again. read more

Great wings, sandwiches, burgers, drinks and service! Newly opened in Pewaukee and they did a phenomenal job on the renovations. Every restaurant has some bumps in the road when they open. Don't let the early reviews sway you from trying this place. Support this family owned business expanding in Pewaukee!. read more

Went to the new Stenys had meatloaf it was barely edible great service terrible meatloaf

Visited newly opened Steny's in Pewaukee. The chicken strips were dry and overdone. Breading very dark so it looked they were in the fryer too long. The fries also sucked. The kettle chips were not worth getting. Soda for $3.00 was too much and watered down. Perch dinner for $20.00 was not worth it. Got the fish fry which was ok but the potato pancakes were very dark and burnt along the outside. I did inform the waitress and she said she would let the kitchen know. My bill was over $70.00. No, I will not return. read more

delicious food fun atmosphere kid friendly kind staff the best owners! That's the simple version. What it comes down to is that you will always be treated like family when you walk through the door. You will have hot food, quick drinks, and something to keep everyone at the table entertained. We are very happy to have the Stenys family open a family-friendly establishment out in Lake Country! read more

Food and service were mediocre at best. After was food served had to go find someone to provide silverware and napkins. Food not hot and fries/sandwich undercooked. Didn't did not enjoy sitting at a picnic table at an indoor restaurant. read more

Seating was uncomfortable, super loud and charged for wing dip. I will be going back to the Milwaukee location moving forward.

Lake Country location has great bar service, food, and drinks! The new and improved Steny's Lake Country was beautifully redone inside and out. It has a vaulted ceiling by the bar, window seating in the bar area, and a quieter seating area to the east side of the bar. There were a lot of bar tenders and they were all busy behind the spacious and well planned bar area! We enjoyed their cheese curds, Tex Mex burger, and Jalapeno Grilled Panini! The fries we will ask to not salt next time, but they were good. They had ample parking, great servers and bar tenders, dedicated kitchen staff, and wonderfully designed interior. They do have daily specials. Try it out when in Lake Country! read more

Holy loudness! Terrible venue for a group, much less two people. As others have mentioned, the acoustics are terrible. Would not recommend, nor return. read more

The food, service, and atmosphere is top notch. This place is exactly what Pewaukee lacked, and needed!

The food is good, just like the Milwaukee location. I've been here a few times since opening, the first time it was so loud that my husband and I didn't even try to talk. Just ate in silence with each other and got out of there as fast as we could. Since then, they tried to "fix" it and added some boards to the ceiling to help with the sound. It's slightly better, but just a bandaid. It's still not easy to hear each other. My other complaint is service. We ordered an appetizer that was missing the salsa that was supposed to be included on the side. Then I ordered chicken tenders which is supposed to come with ranch and I ordered them tossed in sauce. The tenders I received were only coated on one side and there was no ranch. I asked for sauce and ranch and waited 15 minutes before the waitress checked in and realized no one brought it to me. Then another 5 for her to get it herself from the kitchen. Then 10 minutes later the kitchen staff finally brought it out. By the time the waitress got it, my food was cold and my husband was done with his dinner. I ended up taking my meal home to reheat as leftovers because of it. Then they had the audacity to charge for the ranch and side of sauce. I was supposed to get the ranch free of charge and the sauce was requested because my tenders were not coated. I tried to push back but it wasn't removed from the bill. May just continue going to the MKE location til they work out the kinks here and get the staff well acquainted with the menu. I don't understand why they had to put in an "order" on their little tablet for the sauce that was missing, should've just gone to get it the moment they knew it was missing instead of waiting for it to run through the kitchen orders. read more
