We expected much more than what was offered. The starter table was very minimal. simple things like some cheeses, pasta salads etc would have been nice. The hot table was also pretty minimal but what was offered was good. The dessert table was just terrible. Nothing was homemade. Looks like someone went to Sam’s Club and bought a bunch of frozen bad desserts. Most of the servers seemed good except for ours. She did not explain anything about the brunch never refilled water, coffee or mimosas. I would not suggest this unless you are just looking at a pretty place to eat.

Afternoon tea event was charming! Delicious finger sandwiches (to include chicken salad, cucumber and also salmon), blueberry scones and decedent treats on remaining tiers. Limited tea offerings of the usual blends like earl grey, chamomile, peppermint and green tea in colorful ceramic pots. Only one hostess so we didn’t see her much during the process. The house tour was also limited to basement and first floor. Expected a little more. But lunch was delicious.

Halibut was excellent and the fresh carrots and green beans. Could have gone just a bit lighter on the sauce which was good. Prime rib excellent but there was no need for the brown gravy. Brie n shrimp was very good. Calimari was not fresh but frozen and then overcooked. House chardonney was very good. Had a birthday brulee but the other two ordered were frozen which is not how this dessert is to be served.

Beautiful setting. Tables were not properly cleaned. Crème brûlée was like watery vanilla pudding without the crunchy top. Clam chowder and pasta we ordered was delicious.

Food was great, everything is a little pricey on Lake Geneva, so on par with that. Would recommend.

Nice ambiance, live piano music during Sunday brunch was a nice but loud since we were seated right next to it. The hot line items for the brunch buffet were warm at best. Deserts and cold line items were good. I expected a little more from the description on the website. Service was okay, waited a decent amount of time for coffee and mimosas and the requested refills. Overall, glad I went but it was pricey and probably wouldn’t go back.

From the minute we walked in and waited while one hostess talked on phone for 10 min and the other one just stood there smiling but not acknowledging us and not seating us either while there was nobody in the place. We didn’t feel welcome. We sat down, never heard specials, had to ask for bread. Wasn’t asked if we needed more drinks and frankly wasn’t asked why two of the three meals weren’t eaten. The $24 Harvest Salad was insulting (found a hair in it), Garlic medallions were swimming on Saudi, French fries nothing special and chicken in pasta was dry and inedible. Why did no one see or CARE that the meal just sat there? One saving grace was that the New York Strip was cooked well and enjoyed. All in all we won’t be back, won’t be referring anyone.

Thank you for your feedback. We have made huge strides towards our goal of excellence this season and I am sincerely sorry for your experience. We have removed the staff that didn't live up to our standards of service during your dinner. Please, if you could reach out to me 262-248-4100 I would be even more in your debt. Sincerely Michael-GM
