If you haven’t been to a Wisconsin Supper Club, this is a must. Settled at a beach front of Mirror Lake, this experience will exceed your expectations. Plan ahead as the average wait time at 6pm is about two hours. They do not take reservations, but will set you up on the patio overlooking the lake with an old fashioned in-hand while you wait for a table. [Eat in, Dinner]
