25 Best American Restaurants in Wisconsin Dells

“I just had to take a moment to rave about one of my absolute favorite spots: Mac's! If you haven't had the chance to experience this culinary gem, let me tell you, you're missing out on something truly special. First off, let’s talk about the mac and cheese. I mean, it’s not just any mac and cheese; it’s a creamy, cheesy, dreamy bowl of goodness that warms your heart and soul. Each bite is a perfect blend of pasta enveloped in a rich, velvety cheese that just beckons you to come back for more. Whether you like it classic or want to spice it up with some tantalizing toppings, Mac's has got you covered! Honestly, if I could eat this every day, I absolutely would. Now, let’s not forget about the Melts! These delightful creations are like a warm hug in sandwich form. The crispy exterior gives way to a gooey, cheesy interior that just melts in your mouth. Each Melt is crafted with love and packed with flavor, making it impossible to resist. I often find myself daydreaming about my next visit, already planning which Melt to try next. I genuinely feel like I should be their spokesperson at this point because I am always craving Mac's! No joke—if you were to ask me what my top recommendation is for anyone visiting the area, Mac's would be at the top of my list, hands down. It’s the kind of place that feels like home, where you can gather with friends and family over delicious food and create unforgettable memories. The atmosphere is always buzzing with excitement, and the staff are incredibly friendly and attentive. It’s clear that everyone here is passionate about what they do, and that makes all the difference. Whether you're dining in or grabbing takeout, the experience is always top-notch. So, fellow food lovers, if you're looking for a place that serves up ridiculously good comfort food, look no further than Mac's! Trust me; your taste buds will thank you.“

“What a pleasant surprise my husband and I had when trying some place new (we are locals). This place puts Panera, Jimmy John’s, and any sub place to shame! To top it off, the customer service was amazing, and the owner was eager to meet his customers and help his staff. I’m so excited to have this place as our go to now for lunch and dinner. Our meal was awesome, and with the extensive menu we have ample opportunity to try it all!“

“We had Stuffs Family Restaurant and Catering cater our daughter’s wedding this past Saturday, and it was absolutely wonderful! The three-meat dinner option — beef tenderloin, chicken, and ham — along with the full salad bar, mashed potatoes, seasoned vegetables, potato salad, pasta salad, and warm dinner rolls was nothing short of amazing. Every dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The team went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. They were professional, attentive, and even took the time to introduce the menu and ensure that every guest was well taken care of. The food and service truly elevated the evening — we received so many compliments from our guests! If you’re looking for exceptional food and outstanding service, I can’t recommend Stuffs Family Restaurant and Catering highly enough. They helped make our celebration perfect!“

“Excellent service, excellent food. Some of our group had prime rib ( some of the best I have ever had anywhere), some had steak, some had fish. All said food was top notch. Had cheese curds and spinach dip appetizer. Wonderful. Strong drinks…nice change, and a best ever grasshopper. I wish we lived closer. We would come often! Happened in when having our family Christmas weekend. Wonderful place. Worked with our celiac guest without issue. Highly recommend!!“

“Fun experience! Everything was delicious!“

“I have waited a long time to go to House of Embers. Being from the area it has been on my list of places I have always wanted to go but never have been able to. I specifically waited for a Saturday evening so that I could get Prime Rib. Again lots of anticipation with that. Also we arrived shortly after they opened for the night and was surprised with how many people they already had in the place.

We got seated right away in a small table for two near the door out of the kitchen. Our waitress came and took our drink later. A while later she came back and asked if we ever got our drinks. We had not and she said she would check on them. It was two beers from tap so nothing complicated. A little later she came back with the two beers. We placed our order including an appetizer. After a long time again the waitress comes back and asks if we got our appetizer. Again we said no and again she said she would have to go check on them. She came back and said they would be out soon. They did arrive at the table about 10 minutes later, making me think they had not been started until the waitress checked on them. The seafood stuffed mushrooms were really good so worth the wait.

Since we put in our main order with the appetizer we thought maybe that our main course would follow shortly behind our appetizer. That was not the case. Actually two tables that came in well after we placed our order received their food well ahead of us and both of those tables had more people in the party than we did. Nothing more frustrating than seeing other tables getting their food when you have been at your table for about an hour at that point. Also the Prime Rib should have just needed to be sliced and the lobster should not have taken all that long to cook based on the size of the lobster.

On to the Prime Rib. Yes I am a Prime Rib snob. The Prime Rib was done to the way it was ordered, medium rare. It was covered in rosemary to the point that it was very overpowering. Still it was not terrible and if they cut back others might complain that it didn't have enough flavor. The mashed potatoes that came with the meal were really good. I was surprised that it was not served with Au jus so I couldn't even dunk to wash some of the Rosemary off.

Overall I am not sure if this experience was a product of my anticipation or if they just really have some issues with how the work flows in this place. It seemed that our waitress had to keep going to figure out what was going on with our food and drinks so I don't think it was all just a product of my anticipation.“

“Amazing food and atmosphere! Definitely recommend to anyone that enjoys chilling outside & great food!“

“Awesome food. Reasonable prices. Happy to see it re-opened!“

“Bobby is awesome bar worker and is polite“

“Wonderful food and drinks. Wendy and her staff are the best! Come try it out...you won't be disappointed!“

“Reserved the 3 bedroom loft. More than enough space for a big family with full kitchen and utensils. The bathrooms are huge...we think it's wasted space but nice to have. pantry. A lot of space for storage. We stayed on a weekday and price was reasonable if sharing with other family.“

“Tonight I went into Culver’s and had never ordered from one before. I terribly screwed up my order and then had to take the food back (I thought I got the wrong order). The manager on duty was AMAZING! Explained how I ordered incorrectly in the nicest way possible, and remade all of the food for me. I could really tell that they cared about customer experience and handled the situation so amazingly! The food was delicious, and the service was super quick as well! I would 10/10 recommend this Culver’s.“

“We wanted to try a different restaurant in the Dells, this place was amazing! Tried the Duck Bacon Rangoons, absolutely to die for! Soo good! My husband had the steakhouse burnt ends sandwich, I had the B3 burger- both so delicious! We didn't want to stop eating... the food was THAT good. Our daughter had the cheese pizza and loaded mashed potatoes, she had a second helping of potatoes and scraped her plate clean of them! Our waitress was fantastic as well. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a phenomenal meal in the Dells!! We will be back in the future and will refer friends to try as well! Thank you Lake City Social!!“

“I stopped in on Veterans day to grab some dinner. I had never been there before and did not realize they offer a complimentary dinner to vets. Needless to say the staff was great, especially the bartender, Tyler, who not only made me feel completely welcome but was also very down to earth and very easy to conversation with. The food and hospitality were exceptionall but I have to say Tyler's welcoming personality really put my first experience at Moosejaw over the top!! AAA+++ Thank you Tyler“
