The Hunt Club Steakhouse

Reviewed By 570MaryS570

One of the best meals we’ve had! Everything from the bread, even the butter to the dessert was excellent quality. Huge wine menu. The food was beautifully presented. Upscale clubhouse on the golf course. One room has a wall of windows with a nice view. The room next to that was cozy with wood walls and a fireplace. Service was 5 star also. No complaints! I ordered scallops and my husband ordered filet. Everything was served promptly, hot and it was delicious! The cheesecake and coffee excellent. Can’t say enough about this restaurant!

We stopped here for lunch - we enjoyed walking the path from the Main Road. Very upscale restaurant - beautiful decor inside and we enjoyed browsing the gift shop and reading the signage on the walls after lunch. It was interesting to watch the boats on he water - since this was a Wednesday and some schools have started back, it was very quiet here today. I ordered a burger (Classic Burger Sandwich) and found it to be very good. We all enjoyed our lunches here and Brooke was a great server. Thank you!

Harpoon Willies

Reviewed By musiclover26

It's hard to believe that we've never been to Harpoon Willies in all the years we've been coming to this area. A friend recommended so we went for dinner before visiting the Belfry Theatre for a show.We ran into several people we know who also were dining pre-Belfry. I had a delicious mushroom/swiss burger and sweet potato fries and my spouse had a chicken sandwich and salad. All the food was delicious and we thoroughly enjoyed our dinner. We will definitely return again very soon and highly recommend it.

Sammy's on the Square

Reviewed By dennydee348

Growing up, this restaurant was called the Wayside. It was semi upscale years ago. Now as Sammy's, it's a Greek style place with nice looking breakfasts and good sandwiches for lunch. Located on the square with a view of downtown Walworth, Sammy's offers some great options. I brought the family and we ate sandwiches. Good looking chicken fingers for the kids meal and tasty sandwiches, although I am not a fan of the battered fries. The soup rocked (cream of chicken and rice!). Service was appropiate and so was the price. I will stop by again ! And they served a scoop of ice cream with the meal!

We had several meals here. At lunch the service was slow, much better at dinner. The food ( burgers, etc. ) was very good. The chairs inside were a wee to hard for me; if you need a softer seat ask for the small booths just to the left of the hostess stand. I also found the outdoor wooden chairs more comfortable than the indoor wooden chairs. Good variety on the menu.

Chuck's Tavern

Reviewed By andyw604

We visited at an off hour to grab a sandwich after driving up from Chicago. We were warmly welcomed. This is a place your order at the bar kind of place. I have found this format frustrating when places are very busy, but it was a nonissue due to the off hour. The sandwiches we ate were delicious and the prices seemed low, until we realized sides are extra. (Which I like if all I want is a sandwich). It has a fun view of the lake. Being an indoor, outdoor place the flies were annoying but the lake area seems full of them this year. One young employee was given a fly swatter and bottle of cleaner to decrease the population. Relax and eat here.

We live relatively close to Lake Geneva, and we are there a few times annually, however, we typically go to the north-east side of the lake, where the majority of the restaurants, shopping, etc. . . are located. A friend recommended Gordy's and we were pleasantly surprised. Gordy's has a nice lake view, some outdoor lounge chairs where you can have a drink while you wait for your table (and it's busy, so you might have a wait), and the area has a lively atmosphere, but not as crowded with tourists as the downtown area. We had a good meal with a nice view and discovered a part of the lake we had not visited.Thank you for your review!
