Palmer's Steakhouse

Reviewed By Diane S - Greenfield

This is a wonderful restaurant. High quality food with friendly service in a warm and cozy restaurant. Recently went with my husband for a holiday dinner. Oysters on the half shell and oysters Rockefeller where both terrific. My husband always likes the duck! I had the swordfish special. They have a great wine list and you can eat in the bar too. I suggest reservations.

Doc's Dry Dock

Doc's has proudly been serving the Lake Country area for 25+ years. We offer the freshest pizza available. Our dough is made fresh daily and we load your pizza with toppings. Our wait times may get lengthy (we're working as fast as possible), but we are very limited in space. Please give us a try. You won't be disappointed.

First time visiting this place - it is hidden amongst homes and not someplace you would find If you weren't looking for it. The pizza is fantastic! The crust is crisp all the way through to the middle pieces and the cheese and toppings are all top notch! Highly recommend it to anyone who loves a great pizza!

Malabar Coast Coffee & Tea

Reviewed By Jeanne M - New Lenox, Illinois

This busy shop was a pleasant surprise. Wanting to stay away from the run-of-the-mill shops, we stopped in to Malabar for breakfast with our granddaughter who lives nearby. It looks like the place to be for locals. Good seating, a fireplace, nice selections of coffee, tea, pastries, and panini.

Though I don't drink coffee, I loved the smell of the place. My specialty hot tea was good and hot, Lemon Jasmine. I also couldn't resist one of the scones, warmed up. I ate every crumb. Hubbie had the blueberry muffin and scarfed it down. Granddaughter was being good and had only an iced coffee.

The panini menu looks great and reasonably priced, as were the goodies we ordered.

Tofte's Table

Reviewed By lisaarazz - Lockport, Illinois

Amazingly great restaurant. Food and service was outstanding. We started with the duck confit tostadas and octopus dishes. Both were elegantly plated with layer upon layer of flavor. Next we had the shrimp and the scallop dishes. The textures and colorful plating made each a work of art and tasted wonderful. The serving staff was informative and very friendly. We will definitely be back.

Took a business party of eight on a Wednesday night. It was very busy and loud. Hard to hear someone across the table. I had cream of broccoli soup which was very good. Enter was chicken jambalaya which was good spicy and very salty. Entree of the day was steak parmigiana which several of my guests enjoyed. Salads were good. My party seemed pleased with their dinners, except me. Service was excellent, our wait staff worked hard to pull it off for us. I think it is an average experience. Do not go here for a "quiet dinner", as there was some type of loud dinner meeting going on next to us. Did not try desert.

My wife is gluten intolerant, so we saw this place while we were visiting family. We tried the sugar cookies and pumkin bread. Both were tasty. They have many options, bread, cookies, cakes, pies, rolls, bagels, crust. They offer bread samples, but not for the treats.

This restaurant on Pewaukee Lake has been around since 1929. Specializes in Wisconsin fish fries, casual dining in comfortable cottage atmosphere. Had the Prospect sandwich, grilled chicken breast with 3 cheeses, bacon on grilled Italian bread-delicious. Sandwiches come with fries, slight up charge for rosemary fries. They have cod and perch fish fries, available at lunch time too. Service was good -prices reasonable. Has full bar. Can be very busy in the summer.
