I live this place It's tough to accommodate kids - still think they have an opportunity to have the side bar be the pizza place or something more casual It was very loud with the music I still had a great time

The crafted Italiana has an excellent fish fry. The drinks at the bar were well made. I had an espresso martini that was excellent then we went to the Christmas pop-up bar in the drinks. There were amazing and so was the decor and service highly recommend five stars.

Enjoyed the ambience of the Igloos Experience. Food was good, but very overpriced for the portions. Our waitress was wonderful! Charcuterie for 4 was $16 a person, enough for 2. Ordered drinks in a "snow globe", however since they were out of the globes we were just served a gin and tonic (forgot the pomegranate) in a regular glass for $14, drinks were not made according to the menu. We were told by our waitress we could get a snow globe drink at the Santa Bar. After Igloo, we hit the bar. Bartender reminded everyone they close at 9 pm as soon as they ordered a drink it was 8 pm. Not very friendly did not know anything about the drink menu and still no snow globe. She didn't know what Scotch was either. The place was quiet, but the people there were spending money, so why push people out. Overall the snow globe Experience was good, very nicely decorated outside on the patio .

The food was delicious, the restaurant clean, front desk very kind. Only negative was our server was very new and it took 20 plus minutes to even get drinks. She never checked on us after receiving appetizer or food. I had to go find someone to get water. It was my husbands birthday and going out is something rare for us. It took away from the experience I wanted to give him.

Great overall experience. View is great of the lake. Service a bit slow both times we’ve dined there. My steak was overdone but risotto was excellent. Would order again. Would definitely recommend.

My wife and I had a glass of Cabernet Sauvignon, chopped salad and a wonderful dish of broiled salmon done medium-well. This was perhaps the best tasting salmon dish we have ever eaten. We ate at the bar and and the server was very friendly. This is a gem of Lake Geneva, Wisconsin.

Exceptional in every way. The Thanksgiving buffet was above all the rest that i have ever experienced. The meat section was perfectly prepared and you could cut the turkey with a fork it was si tender. An abundance of side choices that were impeccable in taste and quality. Service was very attentive, and the atmosphere pleasant. The only negative was the pumpkin pie had too much clove spice. I will be returning in the near future for the Italian food.
