Still a great experience. Classic supper club atmosphere with friendly service from everyone; hostess, bartenders and the server. Real wood fire in the fireplace. Stopped in New Year's Eve and they were busy as expected. We had a cocktail at the bar and a nice chat with other patrons while we waited for a table. Our meals came quickly after we were seated and we were very pleased with everything. Pricy, but never disappointed. read more

A traditional supper club. Good old fashions. Short ceilings and darker interior. A sloping dinner area. Not sure I liked that. I had the duck which was very good. Pork belly as a appetizer along with deep fried brussels sprouts. Very good. I had the duck as a dinner item. Very good. Walleye and shrimp menu items were very good. A true classic restaurant. read more

It's a small place but such a gem! There were so many things they do well here. The dirty martini was actually dirty! The service was top tier. Everyone was super friendly and we received our orders in a timely manner. The only reason I gave it a 4 instead of a 5 is because of the prices. $20 for one piece fish dinner and a side seems like a lot to me! The wedge salad was HUGE and cost $10 to upgrade. It tasted great but could've used more dressing. The bread is a MUST order. For $5 you can't go wrong. If you add shrimp to your meal be warned they are GINORMOUS haha but tasty also. Overall, the vibes of the place were so great. I would definitely eat here again, and I would DEFINITELY get another dirty martini!! Also, stop by next door if you have time before or after your reservation. Awesome bar with welcoming people. read more

Scary at first, very small bar & dining room facing the river. Reservations a must and make it early. Our server, gracious and attentive. Our meat perfectly cooked and seasoned. Menu is small so check it out on the website, subject to minor changes. This is a Supper Club, with typical Supper Club drinks. Will we make the 75mile trek here again? Heck yeah! read more

I've eaten twice at this cozy spot perched on the bank of the Rock River in rural Jefferson. It's not much to look at from the outside, but the food and atmosphere lives up to the "supper club" moniker. It's dark inside with a very low ceiling (watch your head) with lots of nooks and crannies including the picturesque "porch" area with about 8 tables and lots of windows with a view of the muddy river. We sat on the porch on our first visit and on our second, as we had six people we were in a "booth" which was more of an enclosed private room-vet private. The menu features all the traditional fare from steaks to fish. Having been disappointed by the lake fish fry on my first visit, I opted for the 8 0z. Tenderloin steak this time which was cooked to perfection. Entries come with a side-baked potato or wedges (steak fries) and a house salad with choice of dressing. At $48 this was a pretty good value. Be sure to try the cheese curds served with ranch dressing and you must save room for an ice cream drink-grasshopper, brandy Alexander, Cadillac or pink squirrel to finish things off. Service was a bit leisurely but as it was storming outside on our most recent visit,, we weren't in any hurry. The do take reservations if you call, but note like many spots like this the crowd tends to favor the early time like 5 or 5:30. We dined at 7 on both visits and were one of the last people there when we left around 8:30. A nice spot for a traditional Wisconsin dining experience. read more

We made a reservation for 7 pm and even arrived early, but weren't seated until after 7:30. The food was ok, but expensive. Most Wisconsin supper clubs feature relish trays, dinner rolls or some kind of complementary first course. Nothing like that here. Disappointing. On a happier note, we had a nice bartender, first night on the job. read more

We enjoyed our visit. Both of us had the whitefish fish fry. It was generous and excellent as were all of the sides. Everyone on the staff was cordial and most helpful. We had a great view of the Rock River and even saw some wild life hanging around. This was our first time here and we will be back. read more

The Edgewater is a charming place with outstanding prime rib on Saturdays. We had a marvelous dinner and the views of the river are beautiful. We all thought our waiter was outstanding, too. Our one concern, and for our group it was a major one, is that we were told the place was ADA compliant, and it was far from it. A member of our party had to be carried to two areas to get in and out. A portable ramp would do this place a lot of good. We felt a bit deceived. read more

What a great ole time supper club! The owner was very nice and made a great old fashioned. They sat us next to the window overlooking the river. Very cool atmosphere, Two of us ordered the Saturday prime rib special and one shrimp dinner.

Did not disappoint. read more

Had the salmon -- very good, not overdone. waiters attenriver. main factor was the beautiful old decor and the river views. a gem.

Awesome drinks and great food! The staff treated us very nicely and accommodated our friends request to bring in her service dog.

This is a great old fashioned quirky supper club. Not much from the outside on this dreary evening ,but the cozy atmosphere and cheerful service made up for that. The view along the river from the main dining area is great. Now, let's get to the quirky part...the entire dining room slopes towards the river, floors, table, ceilings. If you are over 6' grab the window seat and duck. Perfectly comfortable. It's like being on a bo read more

Two thumbs down for The Edgewater Supper Club this evening. After spending several hundred dollars in fuel for our airplane to fly to the Edgewater for dinner, fully expecting a great experience as we have had in the past, tonight we were greeted with a hostess who seemed to be on some sort of power trip and refused to seat us, despite about 2/3rds of the tables being vacant. She hummed and hawed and made us stand around for 15 minutes, then announced it might be another 10 minutes, maybe longer, she didn't really know. Finally, we had enough and walked out and the Edgewater lost two good customers and all of the goodwill we have brought them over the years. There are so many great restaurants out there who are literally dying for business, that there is no need for this sort of behavior toward paying customers. It's one thing if the restaurant was full with a long line out the door, but another thing entirely when we are standing around looking at a majority of the tables empty and being unable to be seated. Oh well....live and learn. A restaurant can have hundreds of good reviews, but bad service will always catch up to them. If good service is of value to you, recommend you take your dinner plans elsewhere. read more

Great food and awesome service! Spinach salad with hot bacon dressing is to die for! It's the best I've ever had. In fact, next visit it will be my appetizer and my entree! I'm also a fan of their spicy shrimp with blue corn chips appetizer which wasn't on the menu but definitely should be! I took an order to go!!! Ribeye steak was done right and flavorful!! read more

We have been hearing about The Edgewater for a while now, and decided to finally try it. It looks like a dive bar in the middle of nowhere, but when you get inside, it's like you stepped into a cave. Cute and cozy bar area, and they do take reservations! We checked in and were seated a short time later. We were lead into a gorgeous dining area with low ceilings, and were seated on the patio. This is the funnest spot, but not for the easily motion sick. Everything is leaning, they even get glasses that have an angled base to compensate. Makes for a fun experience! We had a fun server who didn't mind our questions or repeating a special item. There were four of us, and none of us had one bad thing to say about our food. We had deep fried shrimp with a loaded baked potato, bone in filet with a loaded baked potato, regular filet with a baked, and the catch of the day with homemade broasted potatoes. So delicious! The salads were amazing too! The Cesar comes with little Raviolis instead of croutons, and we tried their spinach salad with bacon vinaigrette; which had SO much flavor! The prices are competitive for a great steak, but just be prepared to spend around $75-$100 per couple. We will definitely be back! read more

I've tried the phone number ((920) 674-9942 since 2019 after I heard they serve very good food. The phone is NEVER answered. There is a note on the website "If we or our phone service doesn't answer, please try again. Our river friends play with our service. LOL". Well, I think that is horrible customer service! There is no alternate for contacting. How are people to call for reservations? For carryout? Hours of operation? Giving up trying read more

A great experience from start to finish. Started with great old fashions at the bar. Had dinner sitting by the river with a great view. Food was awesome. Service was great. I had a filet that was cooked perfectly. My wife had shrimp and Brussel sprouts. We would highly recommend this supper club. We will be back! read more

Quaint little supper club, very dark and intimate. Food was amazing but I believe slightly overpriced.

Cool place inside, very eclectic. Food not great and overpriced. Ordered porterhouse special but had no idea it was $69. Ordered medium, charred black on outside raw inside. Same with salmon, $30 was charred and hard outside and raw inside. Had a pecan butter on top that was so salty I had to scrap off. Mentioned to the owner and was told they could cook it longer but it was already burned on outside. Salad was different, not in a good way as it was mixed with cole slaw mix and chopped cabbage which gave it an odd flavor. Dinner rolls were good so we ordered some more since we got 1 each but then was charged on our bill $5 for extra bread. Crème brûlée and drinks were good. Hope it was just a bad night because we won't go back unfortunately and I was so looking forward to trying it. read more

As a small town boy raised in the Northwoods of Wisconsin I've been through the doors of many of the finest Supper Clubs in the state and must say, The Edgewater is number one in my book. This place is a pure vintage roadside Wisconsin Supper Club. Don't be fooled by the outside, shut your phone off, go inside and enter a world of days gone by. The bartender is on point serving up hand crafted cocktails, he even brews his own beer and offers it on tap. The dining room is very cozy and is my favorite spot but, many folks prefer the four season porch overlooking the mighty Rock River. The food is superb. Nice salads, good soups, and fresh bread come with your meal. The Saturday night prime rib is great, as is their Friday night fish selections. There are other specials that are dynamite such as their roasted duck. The service is incredible- very attentive and delightful. Before you visit another $$$ restaurant in Madison or Milwaukee wash up your favorite vehicle, grab a companion and make the drive to the Edgewater and you will not be disappointed. Reservations are accepted and recommend calling ahead. They also now take credit/ debit cards. read more

Edgewater has everything (and more) that is demanded of a WI supper club. Friendly owners and staff who are happy to talk to new comers about the history of the building and restaurant...which is more than 100 years and storied. The six of us each had a different entree and all of them were delicious. Can't wait to go back when it's light out for the view of the Rock River. It was a perfect supper club dining experience. read more

With a reservation was not able to be seated for 45 minutes. Food was mediocre, prepared by someone without experience. Compact waiting area next to bar. Unique dining environment but was compact and loud. Tablet service for checkout. Will not be returning. read more

This place is perfection. Walking in feels like visiting grandpa's basement... if your grandpa was a super swanky guy who ran a supper club in the 70s. The drinks are well made. The service is authentic and friendly. The atmosphere is accidentally kitschy-hip. The food is of the same caliber of many high end restaurants and priced very fairly. I honestly cannot believe this place is not packed nightly. It's pure supper club perfection. I would move here if they had a spare bed. It's the epitome of everything great about Wisconsin. read more

Well once again I find myself in one of my favorite environments, a supper club. This one comes with all the great history you would want. Great back story tied to prohibition. Let's start with a few negatives. Parking lot is small and so is the restaurant. I hope you're not tall. If you're over 6 ft. you will likely bump your head on things. Positives, just about everything else. Although small, very cozy dining room. Drinks; had the classic, brandy old fashioned sweet. Excellent and just $5. Staff, very friendly and professional. Very limited menu but I'm ok with that. I ordered the prime rib special. I'm not a big fan of prime rib. Too much fat to deal with but I enjoy the taste. Taste wise, this did not disappoint. Came with choice of potato and soup or salad. I took the potato wedges and the blue cheese wedge salad. Love a wedge salad. Is it cheap? No. This place will set you back a bit but I think you will be happy. read more

Unique dining experience with excellent food! The service was on point, and I loved the authentic charm.

This little spot is a gem. Our family was in the area over the weekend and so happy to of found such a great dining option! Vintage Ambiance, in an atmosphere that was very welcoming. Their staff were all so friendly, and professional. The food was excellent! And we had the most beautiful sunset water view! Felt like we were on a boat. If we lived closer, Our family would be there every weekend! 5 stars in my book! Thanks for the great experience! read more

A diamond in the rough, driving by you would never know it is one of the best and most unique supper clubs in the state.

We stopped here on our way home from Milwaukee back to Madison. What a quaint little spot. The front door is very nondescript and really is the front door. Very little parking, but once you get inside, quiet and cozy. You have to walk through a small bar to get to the hostess. I'm pretty sure the owner was running the hostess stand the night we were there. She did ask if we had reservations, but we did not. She didn't like my attempt at being funny about "needing" them. They sat us at a nice table in what I would call their main dining room. We had the walleye, prime rib and baked cod. All were wonderfully prepared. I wasn't a fan of their potato wedges, but they are still good. What was amazing was their desserts. We had the crime brûlée and the cheesecake. All desserts are homemade and incredible. My best suggestion is to make a reservation, I added them to my contact list so that we can make a reservation for next time! read more

Definitely an off the beaten path sort of place but definitely worth fining! Old fashions come with real cherries All meals are served with a relish tray (so Wisconsin!) and fresh bread. My ribeye steak was phenomenal... and the carrot cake was just like my Grandma's... heavy on the cream cheese frosting! read more

I must say I have never written a restaurant review before but my experience was so bad I feel I have to warn people not to waste your money here. We were literally the first people to walk into the restaurant and the hostess made us feel horrible for not making a reservation so we had to wait 45 minutes to get a seat. The bread was good - that was the best thing about the meal. The place is a dive bar. I don't mind dive bars if the food is good, but the food is not and is WAY overpriced. $45 for a burned rib eye that was raw in the middle (ordered medium rare), the salad was wet and soggy with one tomato, the baked potato was tiny, and the two sodas we bought were $4 each and not even filled to the top. Four dollars for a soda? The potato wedges are just leftover baked potatoes and were terrible. They make tons of money here with their overpriced food but obviously don't put it back into the building. It doesn't look like the decor has been touched in decades. Overgrown weeds outside their doors. ugh. Never again. Please don't waste your hard earned money at this place. read more

Front of the house staff definitely needs more training. Not knowledgeable what-so-ever. Most likely will never be back.

We have heard such great things about this Supper Club. Something about vintage Wisconsin warms my heart, so we were excited to give it a try. It started off to be a 30-45 minute wait which seemed reasonable for a high end good quality place. But that was only the beginning we ended up waiting an hour and 45 minutes to be seated. In the meantime we had a few cocktails, also excited as I had heard they make a killer old fashioned. The first one very tasty! The second one (I asked for whisky) was made with brandy, and when asked what they used I was told they made it exactly how I asked. I decided to drink it anyway since they didn't offer to make a new correct drink. Once we got to our table it was a tad chilly in the back overlooking the water. A table of 5 we all ordered. The waitress brought out a steak and set it in front of my son with blue cheese on it - we didn't order blue cheese on the steak so she took it back. Ten minutes later the next meal came out for our friend - chicken. We told him to start eating as the rest of us waited another 5 or 10 minutes for our food. My husband ordered his steak medium, it was served to him rare. My son finally got his steak medium well without the blue cheese. I had a queen cut prime rib - COLD!!! Though the baked potato was so hot I could not even touch it. My friend which ordered the medium sirloin got hers well well done, though she said it still had good flavor so she ate it. At the end of our meal our $215 check came for the 5 of us. I used 2 cards to pay adding a $27 tip to the first card and no tip on the second. A decent tip for less than mediocre services and less that OK food! Our friend offered to pay the tip and I had mentioned I added to the card already - at which point the waitress said - WELL YOU ACTUALLY ONLY PAID HALF OF A TIP BECAUSE YOU PUT IT ON THE FIRST CARD AND NOT THE SECOND! WHAT? Who does that? So our friend left an additional $20 in cash on the table because we figured she obviously needed the money more than we did with comments like that. Needless to say I was very disappointed as I had high expectations for the place we heard so many good things about. WE WONT BE BACK! read more
