Had such a great experience at The Windsor in DeForest! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt welcoming and relaxed--perfect for a night out. The service was fantastic--friendly, attentive, and made us feel genuinely taken care of without being rushed. And the food... absolutely delicious. Everything we ordered was flavorful, well-prepared, and clearly made with quality ingredients. What really stood out was how well everything came together--great service, great food, and a comfortable, inviting vibe. It's the kind of place you leave already planning your next visit. Highly recommend checking it out if you haven't already! read more

I stopped by for lunch with family. There is a bar area, arcade room, and the interior is decorated modernly. I ordered the BBQ Kicker and subbed fried chicken - it was large, filling, and delicious! For my side I ordered the sweet potato fries (which are sweet, not savory). Our service was not very attentive (didn't come back during the meal to check in on us) but other than that, I would return! read more

Tried the BBQ Kicker Burger at The Windsor and it absolutely delivered. The burger was cooked perfectly juicy, loaded with smoky bacon, melty cheddar, crispy onion straws, and a tangy BBQ sauce that tied everything together without overpowering the flavor of the beef. Every bite had the perfect mix of sweet, smoky, crunchy, and savory. Service was fast but not the most attentive. Inside was clean and updated. read more

I had dinner, arriving at the start of the dinner period. A server offered table or a booth. I wanted the vintage looking booths. Our server arrived pleasantly and promptly. This being a building trying to do all the things (bar, concert venue, restaurant) I was apprehensive about sourcing and quality. When I asked where the hanger steak came from, my server checked and reported it came from Jenifer's Market in Madison--always nice to know where quality ingredients come from. So I ordered the hanger steak. I felt better knowing there was competence at the executive chef level and whomever in the kitchen gave this answer this day. The hanger steak was cooked perfectly to my requested temperature. My only complaint is the lack of dinner rolls. When none came with my entree I asked about it and was told they only come out after 5pm. When I asked at 5pm, I received two - and they are two bite size rolls. But the four bites were worth the wait though I'm suggesting to the place that dinner rolls be made to order with dinner. I didn't love the feel of having to ask for what is listed on the menu (rolls with dinner entrees - no mention of only available after a certain time). Overall, great steak and attentive service, but the bread situation makes me reduce this one star. read more

Ordered two 14" pizzas for carry-out that were both really great. The pizzas only took 15 minutes to be ready after ordering, barely enough time to get there and have a quick beer in the bar before hand! One was the Taco Speciality that comes standard on thin and crispy crust that is topped with a refried beans base, covered with diced chicken, taco sauce, fresh cilantro, green onion, diced tomatoes, red onion, cheddar cheese and a crema drizzle. It had a nice zing to it, highlighted by the cilantro, and softened by the crema. One of the best taco pizzas I've ever tried for sure! For the 2nd pizza we did a " build your own," with the "Windsor" crust, which is a thick double crust that is nice and chewy. With that we chose the marinara red sauce as a base and added sausage, pepperoni, mushrooms, and standard cheese (mozzarella?). The Windsor crust was unique with a wonderful surprise of layers, providing an excellent texture and flavor, and making it impossible to resist eating it entirely instead of leaving edges behind for another piece. There is also a deep dish variety of crust available that I look forward to trying next time. Best pizza in the DeForest Windsor area, even better than Branch& Daughter IMO.! read more

Setting was great! I loved the large blue booths and open ceiling. The burger was tasty and bacon crispy just how I like it. Granted the potatoes could have been warmer, but they had great flavor as well. read more

This restaurant has finally got its act together. The food and service was very good on this Friday night. There was a small trio playing this evening on their stage which is quite big. There is even a balcony here for bigger groups but that was not tonight. The dining room is spacious with comfortable booths and tables. The fried fish special was Hadlock with their special potatoes which are a thin cut potato which is not like anything else I've experienced. They were OK but regular french fries would've done just as well. The bar area was comfortable with two experience bartenders they knew what they were doing. All in all I give the place five stars because everything went right and nothing went wrong. It's it's a little tricky finding your way to this place it's sort of between 51 and Windsor Road but when you find the roundabout you can see the restaurant . read more

Overall a very good experience. The wait staff was very attentive, except the maitre d' with the man bun who was a little handsy with my wife. I had the coulotte steak which was very tender, tasty and cooked to perfection. The garlic mashed potatoes are delicious, although a larger portion would be nice. My plate arrived slightly warm, but the others at my table had hot food. We've already agreed that we will return because it was an overall good experience. read more

The ambiance is inviting. We were there on a Wed. for lunch. We had 3 in party and sat in booth, not recommended, distance is far from one end to other. It is not conducive to be able to visit. The food was exceptional tasting butr food was only lukewarm. There was no host and only one waitress doing it all. It was pretty busy so I assume food sat before being brought to the table. The waitress was great, she checked on us several times even tho she was really busy. I will go back again and give it another chance. It was a very inviting atmosphere. read more

We tried this place for the first time tonight. Here are a couple notes on our experience - Ambiance The restaurant is very loud and could really use some acoustics. They have a nice outdoor area that appears to be set up for children. -Service I think this place is pretty new and they have some issues to work through. The reservation process was a little bumpy and getting a drink and finally getting seated was too. Our waitress was very nice and served us well. - food The food was good. However, one in our party got the Friday fish fry and the portions were laughably small. Essentially 2 fish sticks. -final thoughts, for what they charge, I expect things to be on point. I think we'll give them a few months to smooth out the kinks before we try them again. read more

Good food and always friendly wait staff. Can't wait for summer so we can dine outdoors.

Hands down the BEST burger I've had at a restaurant! Love the ambience! Great addition to the community!

I really really wanted to like The Windsor, having heard and read great things about it. So first off, the place is lovely...bright and modern. Ample space in the bar area and dining room as well. We were seated in a booth but conversation was problematic so asked to switch to a table. The staff was very accommodating. Service was great and the Friday fish fry very good. We had both panko and batter-fried Walleye and slightly preferred the battered version. I'm generally not a French fry person but did love their version. But I cannot tell you how loud the place was! A sign of a good Friday night crowd I suppose, but we practically had to yell across the table to be heard. I am not exaggerating. I'm not sure what can be done to absorb some of the noise but our party of four will not be returning. read more

Great overall. The food was not just amazing but scrumptious. The people that work there are so nice and they made sure to say, "bye!" Every time! The ambiance there is amazing it's calm and lovely, it's like a bar-restaurant with amazing architecture. read more

Friday night visit. Service was good. Decor was nice. I had the Panko crusted haddock that came with special fries. Fries were okay but could have been hotter. I'll request their normal fries next time. Panko breading was good but reminded me of more of a coating for shrimp. Somehow it didn't really work on fish in my opinion. My wife ordered the chicken strip appetizer as her meal and requested BBQ sauce as a dip. It was their house "Windsor sauce" and was so-so. Ranch is included. She was charged $1 for the Windsor sauce but didn't get the ranch. I was disappointed that on a November Friday at 6 p.m. they didn't have soup. Prices are not out of line. I'll give them another chance or two and see if things improve. read more

I'm going to give this 4 stars. Not because anything was wrong per se but just that I hold on 5 stars for truly great experiences. New to the area. And went with a friend . The night the packers lost to the bears. I got there early and plenty of parking. Enter to a big , almost cavernous space that is the bar area. Plenty of people . Seemed like a good vibe. No wait for a table so went to the bar and got a very good hand made old fashioned. Perfect. Friend arrived and we were seated immediately. The young woman who served us had an enthusiastic attitude and a bright smile. She was charming and delightful if she wasn't the most polished, she a had great spirit. My friend and I shared the artichoke dip, with warm pita. . It's was dang good. And it wasn't this stupid sized portion, quality over quantity . She has a grilled chicken blackened Asian salad. She said it was and it all got eaten. I had the monthly steak , a porterhouse, medium rare. This special comes with no sides, which is fine by me! Carbs are worthless thing. I added mushrooms and side salad. The salad was light and fresh. Dressing was French, felt commercial. But it was fine. The steak was perfectly cooked and not a lot of seasoning. I feel like I knew the cow. It was really good. The waitress mildly attentive. Checked in a couple of times and then offered dessert . We took a pass. Overall, I liked it. I'm sure I'll go back and update. read more

I really wanted to like The Windsor after visiting with my husband and two kids. The concept is great -- an outdoor volleyball court, playground, and bar area paired with a large indoor space featuring plenty of booth seating. Unfortunately, our experience didn't live up to the setting. When we were seated by the owner and I asked for coloring books or crayons, I wasn't simply told they didn't have any. Instead, I received a lengthy explanation that they would never offer those items because "tables and seats would get ruined." The tone came off as unnecessarily defensive and unprofessional. The food was also disappointing for the price -- our burgers were overcooked and just okay overall. While the building itself is impressive, the high ceilings and concrete floors create a loud, echoing environment that makes conversation difficult. It's a beautiful space with potential, but the atmosphere and service missed the mark for a family-friendly experience. read more

The manager friggin sucks. He clearly doesn't know how to speak because all he does is waive his hands to tell you to move out of an open space. He also doesn't know how to seat people appropriately. Food is good. Waiters could use social training, as they acted like we were wasting their time. read more

They do have good food but we went there especially on Saturday for we could get prime rib and our reservations was at 6 o'clock and they said they didn't have any prime rib and then I've tried to make a substitute and I can't make a substitute and all they had to do is push something off the plate and put something else on it. If you wanna go through all that hassle think oh well I'm gonna have prime rib tonight and then when you get there, they don't have it. It's kind of disappointing. read more

It looks beautiful but that's kind of where it ends with this place. Originally advertised as a supper club; it's not. The menu has burgers and pizzas, and interestingly no prices. After 2 months you'd think you'd at least have a piece of paper that informs your customers of what they are paying for a simple cheeseburger. For as beautiful as the outside is, the inside decor gives off a McDonalds vibe in the dining room. This place seems like it doesn't know what it wants to be. A live music venue or a restaurant. I notice they don't respond to anything people ask them on their Facebook page either. And still no website that provides any information (menu, prices, live music schedule, sports league, daily specials). For 2 months in and not having any of this ready to go it seems like the owners were ill prepared for this venture and are still figuring things out and at this point it might be too late as they've already turned a lot of people off. Food is ok but nothing special especially for 20 bucks for a cheeseburger. You're going to turn a lot of people off by charging top end prices for an average product. I don't mind paying 7 dollars for a beer at a nicer supper club, but at a place that serves tuna melts and cheeseburgers it seems like a pretty expensive blue moon. read more

New restraunt with great food. Very clean, airy, and beautifully designed. Staff was very friendly and attentive. Might be a bit pricey for most. read more

The place is not very inviting. Walk in to a 3/4 empty dining room and he says we have to wait 35-40 minutes. Ask him why he says if you have a reservation you can get right in. Very disorganized, not enough wait staff, the staff aren't very friendly. We ended up having a drink and walking out. Do not recommend. read more

Went to the Windsor on a Friday night to see the music that they were featuring. It's a beautiful building and were immediately told by the bartender that you could not order food at the bar. We decided to just do drinks and listen to the music that was featured. The Brewers were playing so we asked if they could switch the channel on their TV from Woman's college volleyball to the Brewer game. The person we asked said they don't have the Brewers on when there is music and were told to go to the outside bar for the Brewer game. The entire staff working that night seemed to be angry and not very hospitable. Another thing we noticed was a table in the bar area that had dirty dishes and glasses that remained untouched by anyone for the 2 hours that we were there. Maybe they are having staffing issues? Bottom line is nice building with not so nice staff that hopefully will figure it out before they lose any more business. read more

Went there on a Saturday night. The food was at best average. The price was above average. They've been open long enough to have drink menus, wine list and such. Service was not good. I know the place hasn't been opened that long and I hope they make it but they need to be better. I feel there are far much better places for the price. read more
