15 Best American Restaurants near Green Lake

“The Gooseblind is a great place to go for FRESH, homemade food to order! Yeah the wait can sometimes be a bummer… but that’s a cost I’m willing to take when I know my food is being made fresh to order!! Nothing here is “premade” & a lot of love & energy goes into the food. The burgers are delicious, apps are always great, pizzas are PHENOMENAL (fully made fresh- even homemade dough!!) & the sandwiches are always amazing! Come to the Goose for some amazing food! Obviously don’t be a douche & demand that your party of over 10 people be sat immediately when it’s super busy. That’s basic restaurant courtesy that a lot of people have seemed to have forgotten….“

“We very much enjoyed dining at the Oakwood during a weekend stay at the Heidel House Resort. Although making a 7:15 pm reservation, due to a couple incredibly slow diners, we were not seated until almost 8 pm. This could have been a major problem but Sandy the hostess kept us abreast of the situation in a friendly and humorous way while we enjoyed a cocktail at the bar. We were also fortunate to get Margaret, an outgoing, friendly, and skilled young lady as our server. Our meals were good too.“

“I have lived in the Green Lake area for over 60 years but have never eaten at Adam's Rib. So on a nice Sunday/Aug. night we decided it was time. They do not serve food on Sunday till after 4:30 but that was ok as we went grocery shopping first. We arrived around 4:30 and were seated right away. Our waitress was Sue and she was very helpful guiding us through the daily specials and regular menu items. She is very friendly and made our first visit even more fun and relaxing. Our drinks arrived and we looked over the large menu. I had the rack of ribs and my wife had shrimp. Both meals come with soup or salad, rolls, choice of potato. I had salad, very good and wife had soup very tasty. Dinner rolls were excellent !!!!!!! In no time our food arrived. My full rack of ribs was done perfectly and my wife's shrimp were large and very meaty with not a lot of breading. The most dangerous place in the world is between my wife and her shrimp and she was very satisfied with her shrimp and her baked potato. My twice baked potato was excellent. I could only finish half the ribs and will look forward to enjoying them next week. Sue returned several times to check on us and refresh our drinks. We were more than satisfied with the prices of the drinks, food, service, atmosphere and and quality and quantity of our meals. We will be returning and bring some friends along to enjoy our new find of Adams Rib in Green Lake.“

“Best burgers in Wisconsin!!“

“Awesome food and staff!!!“

“Our ice cream stop for sure but also a chicken cashew salad. There is no way the food is cooked to order as it comes out to quickly for fresh chicken. Hell hot food. Comes out quicker then ice cream order. One male kid spe is more time flirting with the girls then working perhaps you can give him a bucket or fresh water to clean the tables. I feel bad for the others working because this kid is a social butterfly.“
