Rubbs Steakhouse

Rubbs Steakhouse, a Wisconsin-style supper club, offers a memorable dining experience in the Wisconsin Dells area. The restaurant's atmosphere is described as fine or good, with a classic supper club feel. The waitstaff is reported to have no issues, although the service can be a bit slow during busy times, with drinks taking 20-30 minutes to arrive. The staff is respectful, courteous, and attentive, creating a warm and friendly environment that makes guests feel welcomed and like regulars. The restaurant is very clean, including the bathrooms, and the place has a warm feeling with good people.

The food at Rubbs Steakhouse is a mixed bag. While the menu features classic steakhouse and supper club fare, some dishes fall short. The prime rib is said to have a microwaved texture initially, but when replaced, it is perfectly cooked and delicious. The homemade soups and plentiful salad bar are highly praised, with the potato and vegetable beef soups being especially good. The salad bar is awesome, with many fresh and tasty options, though some items like potato salad may be missing at times. The flat iron steak is cooked properly to order, and other standouts include the fish fry special, corn fritters, and old-fashioned drinks. Many guests find the steaks to be awesome, and some visit every time they are in the Dells. Outdoor seating adds to the overall experience.

Some dishes received mixed reviews; the scallops had an off-putting bitterness, and the shrimp were not considered "jumbo" despite being described as such on the menu. The dinner roll was compared to "eating gravel," and the rack of ribs was considered "pretty mid." Despite some food inconsistencies, the overall experience is enhanced by the friendly service and inviting atmosphere. The staff is very considerate and kind towards young diners, and children enjoy munching off their parents' plates. The restaurant has been recently renovated with new flooring and looks very nice, which adds to its charm. It is viewed as a hidden gem off the beaten path that many are eager to revisit.
