“This was our first visit to Winger's. We actually were in and out of there three times over the weekend. MASSIVE bar, really great design. We were there earlier in the day and then came back an hour or so prior to the annual Christmas parade. The place was a madhouse but the staff never stopped moving and worked their tailfeathers off! Clean, Dive-ish place. We will definitely go back when we are up North again.“

We heated up the left overs in the oven the next day and they were still great! We will be back!“

The patrons and staff are very friendly. We have spent quite a few days hanging out here, as well as been to a few events put on by The American Legion. Good place to spend time and make a few new friends when in town.“

“We have been to Lucky Chuckys a few times. Great food. The service is not good. Issues were taken care of but should not have happened in first place…quality control. Need better training. Tried giving it a few chances but probably won’t be back. Service to us is very important. So many other places to go that have good food but if service is bad.“

“Went there for the first time on Christmas Day.. Owner opened up and welcomed us in. Her and “the regulars” were the nicest bunch of people we have encountered in the area.

So few places open on Christmas Day, but this experience convinced us that this will be our go to place!“

“Absolutely amazing dining experience with a beautiful view of Nagawicka Lake!! I had the crawfish spring rolls and seafood lasagna and both were absolutely devine!! This spot has been on my radar and am glad I finally made it. I didn't realize how close it was to the Albrechts Sentry shopping center ...will definitely be back soon. The throwback Thursday specials were spectacular!! I wish the lasagna came with a breadstick.“

“We have used Kim's for catering to treat the staff at our school and it is always a favorite. Kim is always flexible and helps to find options that work within our budget.

All items were fantastic. The curds had a Hot honey glaze that was delicious. The sandwiches were huge! The Dill dip was so flavorful. Burger was done right, with substantial toppings and crispy fries. The Ramen bowl was a unique twist, with a great flavor profile. Definitely a must visit in Oconomowoc!“
