50 Best American Restaurants near Paddock Lake

“Food is always good here- usually get the chicken tenders. Son loves the concrete mixer with heath and caramel. We were there the other day and ordered a root beer float- it tasted strange so I brought them back up, explained the taste, they checked and realized the syrup was empty- they apologized and remade the drinks for us.“

“Best local restaurant around. Freshest ingredients, even get pork and beef from local farms. Some of the best food we've ever paid for.“

“My husband and I have enjoyed our dinners here for 45 years. Similar menu and same receipes. We celebrated our wedding rehearsal dinner here. Our favorite restaurant for our anniversary and birthdays, the best restaurant for Friday fish fry in the state of Wisconsin!“

“Gaming, food, service and atmosphere is second to none. Food is hot, drinks are cold, and so relaxing to be there. Ownership treats us like family. Come and see what I’m talking about it.

Parking: Front and side parking. Lots of lighting.

Wheelchair accessibility: West front side of building.“

“This place was a random pick and we LOVED IT. All the employees were super sweet and the food was amazing.“

“They create a lot of events and serve their community.“

“Had the opportunty to stop in at the hidden Max-Boyd-s Hideout in Antioch recently, interesting place, decor and experience.

Located in Antioch, but off the beaten path, literally. a few blocks off of Grass Lake Road is the Hideout, not far away from any of the Chain of Lakes.

Weathered and worn, like a old leather jacket, if you are looking for an old school tavern style place, you should stop in.

Bring cash only, or use their ATM, indulge in their beer or drink selection while seated at the bar, table or play a Slot machine.

I enjoyed the grilled chicken sandwich-fries or chips, which was delicious and flavorful.
I see they have ribs, burgers, fish frys and prime rib selections as well available.

The prohibition, Al Capone theme is a nice touch as well. Test your sense of adventure and stop in.“

“We came for our Anniversary dinner. Our server, kate, was so excellent . The food was great. My steak cooked exactly as I asked. We tried a dessert that was delicious ( peach cheesecake with hot honey drizzle)The restruant is clean and everyone is so efficiant friendly .P S. The prices are great too! Thanks again!“

“It's now called copper bottom. If you read my other reviews you'll know that im a wing snob. The wings are fantastic. The fish tacos are great too. Awesome seating outside where the building protects you from the wind. Great bourbon selection, the drinks are awesome. The wait staff are friendly and funny. They're not afraid to help each other out to make sure you have a great experience.“

“Love this place! Right next to my work.“

“They just completed my mom's after funeral party.. the food was fantastic, the service was fantastic.. They knocked it out of the park... We saw the message on the Electronic sign... that was great... THANK YOU !!!!“

“I have to say the fish boil was awesome! The service was amazing! Rachel goes out of her way to make sure everything is the best! 😀“

“We had a great meal at the Red Oak. Expansive wine list with many good choices, along with specialty cocktails. Excellent entrees, with many choices that would work for vegetarians, gluten-sensitive and those needing kosher food. Desserts will beautifully presented and clearly made in house. The breadsticks on the table were especially good! The restaurant has a homey atmosphere with high ceilings and a fireplace. Artwork from local artists decorates the walls and is available to purchase. There is a lengthy explanation on the menu about their tipping process (20% added automatically, with tips pooled and divided equally amongst servers). The menu also lists their farm partners, which was much appreciated. Our waitress was new and a bit challenged, but she did her best. Only major issue was an error on our bill (forgot to charge for both desserts) which sent her back to us after the bill had been paid to collect additional money. We had a nice chat with the general manager as we left. She was very personable and shared more about the restaurant and their philosophy. We will definitely return if we have the opportunity, since we do not live in the area.“

“Great food, but Not Sure For a Quick Lunch
We were driving down 173 the other day, saw their sign and tried them out for lunch. You enter into a fairly large dining room with many tables. To the left is a large bar. There was one other couple and two groups of 6-8 seniors having lunch. We later saw that the seniors were bridge players and started playing cards after lunch. Only one server/hostess was working and she worked hard. She took our drink order, ice water for me and fresh brewed Iced Tea ($3.00) for my wife. We then took to studying the expansive menu. It is just like the menu at Dockers down in Fox Lake. You name it, they have it. We see our server refilling drinks for the other diners, bringing out some appetizers, etc. and finally taking our food order. We were in no rush and just sat and talked. Then we saw our server bringing meals out to people that were there way before we got there. Not a good sign as there was another large group still to get their meals in front of us. Our drinks got refilled and we sat some more. Our food finally arrived after an easy half hour, maybe longer. She did explain that it was only her and the cook so that's what took so long. The meals were worth the wait. My wife had the Dockers Style Marinated Chicken Plate ($15.99) with fresh fruit. A warm pita was topped with a juicy and tasty Greek seasoned chicken with a side Greek salad and several slices of fresh fruit. I had the Grecian Salad with Chicken ($15.99). Prior to bringing out our meals, our server asked if I like anchovies on my Greek salad - I sure do and she loaded me up. The salad was composed of plenty of the usual Greek salad ingredients and a very tasty dressing. This could easily be shared. Our meals were excellent, fresh and flavorful! Everything we saw go by looked delicious and we would go back again if we were in the area, just not if we're pressed for time.“

“Such a fun place--great decor! Staff amazing! Food amazing! Will definitely be back!!“

“It's not much to look at from the outside, but inside has a friendly, hometown diner atmosphere. The prices are probably apt for the area. The servings were surprisingly large, and the food delicious“

“I’ve worked here over 3 years. I love this bar, I love the customers, my bosses are great. We have live music or karaoke every single weekend. Our kitchen is open until 9 PM Sunday through Thursday and 10 PM Friday and Saturday. The fryers are on until 2 AM seven days a week. Friday and Saturday we offer giant slices of homemade pizza for $5 slice until they’re gone. We are fully handicap accessible, two ramps for indoor and back deck access. We have a large selection of canned and bottled beers, huge selection of hard liquor, seltzer, iced teas, etc.. We have RC products on the gun, but also offer Coke and Pepsi products in the can. We can pretty much customize any menu item within reason. Our kitchen staff is incredible. I tell people we are a bar with restaurant quality food. We do have a large dining room that is kid friendly. Definitely bring your appetite, our portions are large, but absolutely delicious.“

“great owners great food love the deck in the summer looking out at the water“

“I stopped by here on a whim last Saturday night because a friend recommended it to me. it's a quaint little joint in a 'middle of nowhere' kinda town. I didn't know what to expect when I walked in. Not too big, well lit and a friendly crowd. I was told that I had to try the food. Whenever I first try a new place, I usually try a burger of it's on their menu. Lots of smoked meats are available here as well! Brisket, ribs, wings etc. Quite the selection! I got the bacon cheeseburger and omg! It was BANGIN!! Come hungry too cause it's a half pound of mouth watering beefy deliciousness! The crinkle cut fries are an awesome addition to this monster burger as well. 😋 I ended up staying longer than expected as some people that I knew showed up and it was worth it! Great time here. I'll definitely be back (if they allow me) Did I mention the awesome bartender? 😎 Highly recommended.“

“Great Fish Fry, cold beer, good people. What more could you want?“

“I have found the best Walleye dinner I have ever eaten here, and my favorite waitress, Tia, is just a real treat if you get lucky enough to be served by her. Have also had other meals at this place, and they were good, but thinking about the walleye makes my mouth water, its that good! Just do yourself a favor and make it to this place on a Wednesday, Tia is the walleye princess for a reason! It;s hard for me think of a better dining experience, I now look forward to Wednesdays.“

“Five Stars!!! The Stumble Inn is a staple in the area! Whether you are after their world famous “Crispy Pig” or one of their other awesome burgers, this is it!!! Cold beers, great mixed drinks and a friendly waitstaff (and owner). You can’t go wrong!! Enjoy!“

Everyone was nice and things appeared to run smoothly in a crazy busy atmosphere. Food came out promptly and was very good!

“Corner Kitchen in Twin Lakes is an absolute gem! I recently visited and had their chicken sandwich, and it was easily one of the best I’ve ever had. The chicken was perfectly crispy on the outside and juicy inside, with the right balance of flavor and seasoning. The sandwich came with fresh toppings that really brought it all together.

The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, and the staff were friendly and attentive. It’s clear that they take pride in what they do. Whether you’re grabbing a bite with friends or stopping by for a casual meal, Corner Kitchen is a spot you don’t want to miss. I’ll definitely be back to try more items from their menu!“
