The Lakely

Went with some work colleagues for dinner. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meal. As someone who mostly eats vegetarian I was pleased to have a couple of options even with a smaller menu. I had literally the best falafel I have ever had. It is a bit pricey, but nobody seemed to mind as we all devoured our meals.

I really enjoyed the ambiance and live music. I will go back. Great job Zack!

Hotel restaurants with great food is a common trend, and The Lakely upholds this tradition to the highest degree. The restaurants theme is bringing the farm straight to table, so traditional Wisconsin meals with a gourmet twist are what one would expect when walking in, and you shouldn’t be disappointed.

Spicy-Sour Street Corn was a strong, yet pleasant, way to start a meal, alongside a wholesome tomato centered salad. Our main entrees started with the “Chicken”, which was glazed with oil and butter and then baked in an oven to give it a refreshing crunch that didn’t scream deep-fried greasy. The protein was accompanied with traditional farm veggies like Lima Beans, Mustard Greens, and Onion. The second entree, Chicken Pot Pie, had puff pastry and crust baked to perfection. The chicken left no complaints, but the rest of the filling was not very creative and the carrots were a bit bland for my liking.

After our main meal, we ordered Gazpacho for the table to clear our pallets. This was the best Gazpacho I’ve ever had the pleasure of tasting, even having lived in Spain for a year. It’s creativity in using peppermint oil and watermelon garnish was delightful and made each bite taste like an orchestra blasting flavor into your mouth at each note.

This inspired farm food is perfect for anyone visiting, and please order the Gazpacho, you won’t regret it.

Delicious local healthy food. Drink had lots of flavor. Staff friendly & knowledgeable. Not as pricey as all the locals freaked out about for no reason.

Can't believe it took us years to realize they were there... The drinks are so damn good! The bartender Alex is the best! So knowledgeable about the drinks and really appreciated the quality attention and willingness to help us find our new favorite cocktails. We will be back soon!
