Last night we decided to try Brandy's Old Fashion for dinner The restaurant is warm and inviting we were seated right away in a nice booth The waitress took our drink orders and served them with a relish tray which was very nicely filled with very fresh and crisp celery carrots radishes and a dipping sauce We ordered the cheese curds which were crispy and creamy all at the same time very tasty little morsels indeed We ordered ribeyes for our main course it came with your choice of potato and a medley of zucchini squash and carrots The meals were delicious We totally enjoyed our dinners Thank you for a Great Dinner read more

We were looking for an "Old School" Wisconsin supper club and we found it here. Brandy's Old Fashioned had everything we were looking for, the atmosphere, the famous Wisconsin Old Fashion drinks and the food we remember. I had the shrimp scampi and my wife had the Wisconsin Fish Fry cod. Both were excellent. The service was top notch. Food was served fast and fresh, but we never felt rushed. We were able to take our time and enjoy our dinner. Prices were more than fair. Our new go to when we're in the Lake Geneva area. read more

Went for the first time last week. Love the decor and atmosphere. We had a drink at the bar. Then were sat in the back room table of 5. Ian was a great waiter. Very cheerful and quick to respond to our requests. Nice job Ian!!! We all had the fish. 2 broiled, 3 fried. Fried fish was great! Light breading and cooked well. The broiled was not up to par. Super bland. Cold. One platter came out with fish that looked like it had already been eaten - yikes! Loaded baked potato's were subpar. Looked like they sat under a heat lamp too long. 1/2 piece of bread was strange - usually you get a full piece cut in 1/2 with a pad of butter. And the platters...not needed. Tables are too small for such big platters. A regular plate would be sufficient. The relish tray was also strange. Typically you get crackers, cheese pack or butter. Just a few veggies and ranch. But it was appreciated. It's worth another try in the future. read more

There's a lot to say here. The food was good overall. When you order a $50 filet, you expect a certain level of quality and service--and to be fair, it was was close to meeting that level. It wasn't the best steak I've ever had, but it was decent. That said, I'm not convinced 100% it was worth $50. The lobster was good to note. For my first drink I started with a Brandy Old Fashioned. I have never had brandy, but figured I'd try it given the supper club was named after it. It was just okay--but that's on me for trying something outside my norm. At $14, the price felt fair and expected. Where things really went sideways was with the next two drinks. I ordered a Woodford Reserve Old Fashioned and later a Woodford Reserve tall with club soda. When the bill came, the Old Fashioned was $23 and the tall was $21 ($20 for the pour and $1 just to make it "tall"). I fully expected to pay more for Woodford Reserve--but $23 for an Old Fashioned is excessive, and $21 for a simple Woodford and soda is hard to justify. Charging an extra dollar for a splash of club soda from a gun just adds insult to injury. I love supper clubs and absolutly have been to quite a few, and I've never paid $23 for a drink anywhere, supper clubs or not. Between the two cocktails, I basically paid the cost of another steak. That's ultimately why I won't be back. I can get a comparable steak for $40 elsewhere and spend significantly less on drinks. Maybe this was the reason for not many people on a Sunday night. I did reach out to the restaurant directly about the drink pricing and never received a response, which says a lot. read more

We ate here last night, the food and the drinks were great. Owners did a great job in renovating the place to give it the true Northwoods feel. We ate the clam chowder, shrimp cocktail, b roasted chicken and espresso Filet. Everything was cooked perfectly. Stephanie the manager and bartender was great and all of the service was spot on. I saw some comments about cost in other reviews but the quality of the food here is quite high so I thought it was very fairly priced. We'll be back. read more

Making our way around different supper clubs and came across Brandy's Old Fashioned. Not impressed. Yes they did have a relish tray, as all Supper Clubs should, but they left out the cheese and crackers. I had to laugh as a table next to us made the same comment when their tray was delivered. The food was average and I was surprised when I only received 1/2 piece of rye bread with my fish fry. The BIG surprise came when we got the bill! Our bill came to $104.45 for (1) Four Roses Bourbon for $10.00, (1) Woodford Reserve bourbon for $20.00, (1) fish fry for $23.00, (1) Broiled Salmon for $34.00 and (1) wedge salad we split for $12.00. $20.00 for Woodford Reserve? Really? It wasn't even a big pour? I compared it to other receipts I had at home: $9.36 and $12.00 (both generous pours of Woodford). And yes, we dine out multiple times every week and are willing to pay for a good meal when we receive one. This one was not worth $100.00. We won't be back. read more

Food was good but a bit over priced. Our server was nice and did a good job, you could tell she was new.

Went here with high expectations and left with a bit of a disappointment. Staff was very nice and attentive. Relish tray was so so. Martini drinks were very good but a little pricey. French onion soup was good, wedge salad not so. Ordered the coffee filet , medium . Came to table over cooked but what saved it was the taste. Also the smallest 8oz filet ever. Also kind of pricey. Wife has fish which she thought was good. No dessert for us. Would we go back. Maybe but not too soon with hopes they will improve in time. As we understand they have been open for 7 months. read more

We went here over the weekend and had a fabulous time. Everything was perfect from the food to the service. I highly recommend the filet, you won't be disappointed. read more

Was recommended by a friend and had a mixed experience. Deviled eggs were super bland with zero seasoning, so not off to good start. Also, fly buzzing everywhere and neighboring tables cheered when I killed it...there were actually many others in the window well. Kinda gross. Back to the food...tried the Brandy Chicken entree which was totally f different from the description...was described as a chicken breast sautéed in garlic, but was actually a breaded flat cutlet with gravy on top. Not great and also bland. Wife had the broasted chicken which was good. Overall a mid experience and the food was just ok. read more

Brandy's Old Fashioned is a must-visit Lake Geneva supper club. Cozy, vintage atmosphere, excellent service, and some of the best Old Fashioneds in Lake Geneva. The food is classic supper club comfort done right, and everything feels thoughtful and welcoming. Perfect for date night or a relaxed evening out. We've been multiple times and feel lucky to have a great place to bring friends that's so close by! read more

The staff was very attentive and prompt, very nice and professional! However we were originally seated in a round booth that had dirty seats that needed wiping down. We asked for a table and were the seated in the back at tiny tables that were pushed together. The paper menus we are given had obviously been in water, they were all wavy the way wet paper gets, the burgundy ink had run and some of the black ink as well. Not very professional. If I'm paying $60 for Prime rib or $52 for a steak, the menus better be bound in leather. Prices for steaks were quite unrealistic for this venue. The water carafes were disgusting, so stained with hard water spots we didn't want to drink the water. Two of the soup spoons were dirty and had to be replaced The relish tray was pathetic... have you been to an actual supper club? Relish trays at good supper clubs have more than just celery and carrots, they have cheese and a variety of crackers and veggies and cheese spreads. We had planned on ordering steaks but the eye popping prices prevented us from doing that... your establishment is not a 5 star restaurant (yet) most got the fish fry and clam chowder. Everyone had to add salt and pepper to the clam chowder to give it some taste. Need to look for new recipes or provider for that. The fish was ok, just ok. The half piece of thin rye bread on our plates was so stale you couldn't chew it. A full piece of nice fresh buttered rye bread would be much better. The one ribeye steak that was ordered was quite inedible. It was obvious not a rib eye, looked like a store bought sirloin, was very mealy and almost raw. It was also way too salty. All 5 of us only ate part of our meals, had to leave the rest. Hope they can make some improvements. We won't be back. read more

I have been twice. The bar has a cool vibe, but the food was very ordinary and many are saying that. I am really hoping they get the proper feedback so the food improves. We need a good restaurant in that location. The french onion soup & Brandy's Chicken was flat. It's really more diner food, but the expectations are higher because the ambiance is more elevated. Fingers Crossed read more

I love this place. When you step inside you immediately get the feeling that you are in a supper club. Let the warm vibe, the friendly greeting and wonderful food make your visit as good as mine have been. I have returned several times in the few weeks that they have been open. I do not have a favorite dish yet because everything has been real good. Go and try Brandy's for yourself. read more

Up vacationing in Lake Geneva wanted to get a taste of the local fair so we found Brandys on a local supper club search. Was able take reservations easily using open table, however the standard dinner times (5:30-7:00) were not avaliable? Well this could be a good sign so we took the 5:00 that was avaliable. It was a nice 25 minute drive from where we were staying we pulled up to a small black inconspicuous building in the middle of a community. The parking was kind of strange with some across the street and some on the property. We walked around the building after parking and tried to find the entrance which was not clearly marked. We went in and we're welcome by some very odd stairs from the locals as we waited for the hostess to finish the call she was on. When she got off she asked how many and we told her we had reservations for two. She started taking us to our seats and my wife asked her for a table instead of a booth and she said those are always reserved? We were seated in the back at a very small table which was fine. It was not very crowded, but it was an early seating. The bus boy came and gave us water which by the way tasted like well water. The waitress came next and greeted us and asked us if we were from around there. I said we were just visiting the area to which she seemed annoyed. She was very attentive in fact I would say she was kind of rushing us through service, again fine considering this was the only reservation we could get so everythingwas pointing to this was going to be a busy night. We ordered the French soup and the clam chowder for an appetizer. $8 each and to be honest was not worth the price, I've had better Progresso! It was a Saturday night so we were looking at ordering the special prime rib however after seeing the price of $60 and what the table behind us got for that he decided to go with the ribeye steak and the filet mignon For $52 a piece! We have been to a few supper clubs before and the meal usually included bread a relish tray salad bar soup and meal. This was not the case here! The food was okay but I would definitely say overpriced for what you get. We both did order the brandy Old fashions and my wife's second drink was a Harvey Wallbanger, she had originally ordered the Sidecar but our waitress warned her that it may be too strong for her. Cocktails were okay, we also had a grasshopper cocktail for dessert which again was okay. Another group of diners came in as we were finishing are desserts and had mentioned that the restaurant had changed multiple times in the past and they were hoping this one would last. The atmosphere was kind of A Tale of Two Cities where the front of the house looked like a Supper Club and the back parts where we were seated was an old breakfast diner where they put "all the people from out of town" We were expecting a warm, friendly Wisconsin supper club and we got a cold, start up dinner that the locals as well as the out of towners hope makes it to true Supper Club status but they have a lot of work to do to get there! Would try again if they make it a year from now. read more

Drinks where good but food was not. Potato pancakes were over cooked, bake potato we sent back as it was way over cooked. The mai mai fish was also very well done and dry. The fried/b roasted chicken was just ok. Was hoping for better but unfortunately it wasn't. read more

Brandy's is great for a "date night"! It's a little on the pricey side but I did order the two most expensive menu items. I ordered the scallops and shrimp appetizer and the espresso filet. Everything was delicious! read more

Great addition to add to your regular Lake Geneva location. You can tell a lot of love, time, and energy went into launching Brandy's. The main dining room/bar area is warm and charming and the back porch area gets great light in the early evening. Menu is typical supper club food. Standouts were the spicy coleslaw, fries, Brandy's chicken and Caesar salad. The staff is incredibly friendly and you get the feeling the whole establishment cares about adjusting in these early weeks as they work out inevitable kinks. Bonus that they take reservations. read more

First visit and pleasantly surprised. Bar in front, booths along the side, nice - old fashioned - wood paneled dining room at the back. Menu strives for the WI Supper Club and nails it in one. Old Fashioned cocktails? Check. Relish tray? Check. Blue Cheese Wedge or French Onion Soup? Check. Fish Fry? Check. Harvey Wallbanger? Check. Steaks and potatoes? Check and check with butter and sour cream. Try the scallops for an appetizer, espresso streak (baked, loaded), and save room for dessert, especially a Brandy Alexander. Great, attentive service. Can't wait to try this out on a real snowy WI evening... read more

Great service great drinks. We'll go back in the near future to have dinner. The atmosphere was nice very friendly patrons. read more

I had high hopes for this place and it was just ok. The food was good, not great and very expensive. Limited menu. Started with a relish tray, carrots, celery and a few radishes with ranch dressing. Our party of 3 started by splitting a wedge salad. It was fine. It needed more dressing, bacon and blue cheese. Our friend had the fish fry, basic cod fish fry nothing special, he said his baked potato was dry and they charged extra to make it loaded. My wife had the espresso filet. Asked for it medium rare, it was more on the rare side. She enjoyed it none the less. I had the broasted chicken with potato pancakes. It was good. We did have a couple brandy old fashioned. I thought maybe they would put a twist on it being thats the name of the place, but it was just a regular brandy old fashioned you can get anywhere. Our server was friendly. He said they have only been open a month. I will say that we did not enjoy watching ufc fighting on the TV. We did get a supper club feel from the ambience. Overall good experience. read more

We stopped into Brandy's and were seriously impressed. It felt like an old-school supper club in all the best ways. Very cozy and loved the decor. The food was great . We had the filet and the fish fry, both cooked just right. And the Grasshopper at the end was a nice way to cap off the meal :) The staff was friendly, the vibe was relaxed. We're lucky to have something like this so close. Already planning our next visit. Big thumbs up. read more

Food was yummy. Had the fish fry, roasted chicken, cheese curds, and French onion. Fun decor. Thought the relish tray was a nice touch. Will be back. read more

A real supper club in the Wisconsin tradition! Menu has something for everyone, cocktails are beautiful and hit well. Leave room for a Golden Cadillac or a Grasshopper! read more

Service was awful our server kept apologizing she's new, if you're going to have new staff don't book them on a weekend! Took her forever to bring drinks let alone take our order, Manager is zero help and couldn't be found when we asked for one. Last time we visited she sat at the bar and did nothing!! Seems to be normal for her to be no help and berate her staff. That place needs better management. If you're going to brag about how you're short staff and have to do everything find another source of income, that's part of being a "general manager" that she brags about consistently, you're suppose to help staff and be supportive not sit at the bar or be outside arguing with what sounded like a boyfriend. read more

I am a Wisconsin Supper Club fanatic and this one of the best I have ever had. The cod with tartar and coleslaw was SO good. The cream of mushroom was AMAZING!!!! I also have Celiac and had a safe gluten free meal! My whole family is so happy about this meal!!! So glad it's so close to home read more

Great true Wisconsin supper club on the east side of Geneva Lake. Reliable, convenient with really good food and great service. Try their assortment of old school ice cream based cocktails. Grasshoppers, Pink Squirrel, Chambord and ice cream, and others. Tasha is a wonderful host! You will not be disappointed. read more

A great Wisconsin supper club experience. Great food, great friendly service, fun friendly atmosphere! Make a reservation and enjoy as soon as possible. Definitely a new favorite for us. read more

Food is normally appetizing when looking at it. The service was ok but I dont who is cooking but whatever was on my plate looked like horse slop. Never again. read more

We visited Brandy's Old Fashion while we were in town and had the best night. The food was delicious! Deviled eggs were amazing, prime rib, and broasted chicken were all delicious. We ate at the bar and Stephanie was so great and made us the best drinks. The grasshopper at the end of the night was the perfect treat! Will definitely come back! read more

I really wanted to like this place and I know we'll give it another chance. There were 4 of us. Two of us had the fish fry - it was good except for the battered coated fries. One had seafood pasta and said it was very good. Another had the boasted chicken - it was good but should have come with the broasted potatoes but again came with those battered fries. Nice cocktail menu. The vibe is very comforting and done in good taste. We'll try again in winter when not as busy and hopefully they will expand on menu read more

Great ambiance and food. The owner goes out of his way to make sure meal met your expectations. Excellent service and the staff is very friendly. Definite supper club vibe. Wonderful addition to the LG area. Highly recommend. read more

I really wanted to love this place. The relish tray has got to be updated. There's only a few stalks of celery and carrots with a little dressing. The fish fry was good. The fillet is excellent. There was no white wine when I ordered. I think the bar has to be stocked fully at all times. read more

Went to Brandy's tonight, very disappointing!!! My wife asked about the white wines and the bartender answered she hadn't tasted them so didn't know which one was dryer. We then ordered the deviled eggs... no taste and clearly they were made the day before. Then we tried the spinach cheese dip, again made at least the day before because when they went to heat it up again instead of being creamy it was broken and just a globe. I tried the French onion soup, it had Swiss cheese instead of gruyere and there was hardly any cheese. If you are going to hold yourself out as a super club, the food better be home made and good. Unfortunately the food was cheap and tasteless. So many other good places to eat in Lake Geneva and plenty of REAL super clubs. If this place doesn't change quick, it won't last. Get a chef that cares!! read more

Ok, first impressions are absolutely 100% positive. As a longtime resident and seeing this location change so many times - some good, some not so good, this has an incredible vibe for success! Only recently opened but they have it nailed so far. Food was spot on delicious, appetizers - french onion soup - broasted chicken - steaks were awesome. Service equally amazing. It is hard to find good servers in a resort town because so many restaurants are competing over the best people. However, everyone at Brandy's tonight was hustling and obviously working together closely as a team. To be perfectly honest, it has been a long time since we have seen this level of service, quality of food, atmosphere and such a positive experience in this area. Make a reservation! You will not be disappointed. I wish Brandy's the best of luck but I don't think they need it. It seems they figured everything out on their own! Thank you for such a great experience! read more

Great food! What a find! It has only been open about 8-9 weeks so I assume the few low ratings here are just them getting the kinks out. We had bacon wrapped scallops and shrimp app and also calamarie - divine. The seafoof pasta was awesome. The filet was great! We are picky eaters and we will be coming back! Tasha the asst gm was great, as was our server and even the bar tender who also works at our yacht club was great. read more

Service is timely, though not on Summer weekends.... As expected The waitstaff is amazing! Food is plentiful, hot and delicious! Our family is so happy Brandy's is here in the neighborhood! Welcome read more

Totally disappointed -- it's all hype. This is a bar, wanna- be supper club, but miles away from that status. Most importantly? I'll start with the food: meh, at best. Nothing to write home about & nothing unique... my filet was an over-cooked hockey puck. So many things went wrong by the time dinner was served, that I didn't even have it in me to complain ... but seriously, they need a chef that knows how to cook. Otherwise, don't plan on lasting very long. Secondly: management & wait staff: green, inexperienced. Our 20-ish year old waitress was clueless. And the manager? Don't even get me started. She couldn't honor the reservation I made weeks prior ... but instead of problem-solving for a customer that would potentially bring regular business? She made useless excuses for everything. My specific request was to sit in booths with elderly parents, and NOT high-tops; but we ended up at high-top tables ... with a blaring spotlight on my dad (who is suffering from Shingles pain in his eye & is uncomfortable). When I asked her to please light the candles for some atmosphere, she gave a lame excuse of being out of batteries (what? For Saturday night? Know your business). The drinks were sub-par, not what we ordered -- my mom told me she was going to be ill the next day because they mixed a whiskey old fashioned when she ordered the classic standby .... errr, ummmm, the name of the restaurant? Hello? And overall, just a very clunky dining experience. Wanted to support a new place, but will not be back unless we hear there is a new chef. If you appreciate an elevated dining experience, skip Brandy's. We tried, but they failed. Go to Pier 290 ... or even Gordy's for better food! Lots of better choices..... very disappointed. P.S. if you know supper clubs ... relish trays should have olives & pickles!!! Not just boring celery, carrots & radishes. Do some research, Brandy's... get with the program! read more

We had a 6:30 reservation. The manager asked us to leave at 7:45, even though I still had half a glass of wine. The food was less than expected. I will not return. read more

Definitely not a supper club. It was a bar with expensive food. It was so loud in there, you had to yell to have a conversation. Food was okay, way over priced. Service was slow as they were busy. Not worth a return trip. read more
