3 entrees and 2 margaritas $100 with tip I mean AT LEAST include rice and beans with the entree for those prices! We left hungry and ate pbj's when we got home. $5 for chips and salsa and no refills read more

Had dinner here with a party of six at ~5pm on a Sunday night. It was nice out, so we got to sit on the patio; we enjoyed our food with the views of Pewaukee Lake on the side, as a bonus. Sitting outside whilst eating always makes my heart happy. :) Service was standard, prices are fair. For starters, my party and I ordered the combo basket of chips (tip: you can get 1/2 seasoned, and 1/2 plain chips!), pico de gallo and guac to share. The chip dips were very fresh and yummy. The chips were fine, though I thought the seasoned ones were a bit too seasoned. For my entree, I got the fried avocado taco, which came with chips & salsa on the side. Oh. my. GOODNESS. this taco was so, so good. I ordered it because I've never seen on a menu, nor eaten, a fried avocado. Ahhhh. This was so yummy. I topped it with some pico de gallo from our appetizer, and boy oh boy, was it perfection. On the other hand, I also ordered a taco steak single taco, which was so very, very disappointing. It wasn't good--in fact, it was sorta yucky. My friend ordered two of their single tacos, and said his meal wasn't good, either. The rest of our table felt pretty neutral about their food, so I guess, all in all, I'd say that maybe things are a hit or miss here. Nonetheless, if you're just grabbing food before and/or after a lake trip, this place will probably satisfy your needs. read more

This place looks very unassuming. But don't let that fool you. The food is fantastic, very fresh and NOT loaded with usual Americanized "nuked beans & rice". I had street taco's and hubby had the chicken and spinach quesadilla. The portion sizes were perfect even for the price since I personally don't mind paying more for clean, fresh ingredients. The drinks are great, especially the House margarita. our service was amazing( thanks Sheri) . The atmosphere is very warm and inviting. I even loved the music they had playing. All of the employees that we encountered were very friendly and smiley. I am very picky about Mexican restaurants and usually do not like them unless they're actually IN Mexico :-) but this place really exceeded my expectations. We will for sure be back. read more

Nothing fancy, but great food and great drinks right with a front row view of the lake- what more could you ask for in Lake Country?! I like a place that can keep it simple. Sitting outside and enjoying a margarita with some chips and guacamole is one of my favorite things to do on a lazy summer afternoon. Highly recommend the coconut lime margarita. Thankful this place only does their margaritas on the rocks aka the right way. ;) read more

Didn't have food but the drinks were fantastic. View was beautiful and made for a relaxing evening sitting outside. Would definitely go back for drinks and maybe to try some food items. read more

The good news is that there is a terrific view of a Pewaukee Lake sunset. The bad news is that you will pay through the nose for it. El Rey grocery store has much better Mexican food for about 1/4th of what you'll pay here. A margarita attesting to be made with fresh lime juice and Patron, is $11 and is a whopping 4 ounces or so. I'm passionate about Margaritas and I challenge whether that was fresh lime juice. EACH taco is around $6 and is served with a handful of store-bought chips and a tiny portion of pico de gallo. Don't be looking for any complimentary chips and salsa, there won't be any. Want some rice and beans with that? Don't be ridiculous! This place has potential but sadly they choose to capitalize on the location by charging ridiculous prices for very mediocre food in both quality and quantity. But hey, starting in October there will be happy hour from 4-6! A whole $1 off! A buck off of a 4 oz $11 margarita makes it only outrageously overpriced as compared to unconscionable. read more

OK Food, Ok drinks, a bit overpriced, but the View! I wandered in here after a day on the lake and thought dang I want a Margarita. The cocktail didn't disappoint. The food we chased it with was slow to come out and was a little bland with the shrimp in my tacos being pretty overcooked. I've had worse but they get a premium price here because of the location and given that I had higher expectations for the food. Honestly if it wasn't for the fact that I was sitting outside in the sun on a beautiful day watching the beach and all the people I'd have probably been pretty upset, but in the end I just chalked it up to a lesson learned. I might stop in for a cocktail again from the beach read more

One of my favorite places to go on a beautiful day! The view of Pewaukee Lake in the quaint Village of Pewaukee is spectacular. I love the fish tacos and Genuine Margaritas! Try the fish fry on Fridays and Sunday breakfast. The fall and winter are fun sitting at the bar chatting with The Staff! read more

We took a gamble, and unfortunately didn't pass our moderate standards. Limited menu, average ingredients, serving soda by the can, and charging by the can ....... Seriously........ The Burritos were ok; fish tacos, my daughter liked them; the beef taco's were horrible, the beef was &'*^*+#%^......... Yup that bad. The nachos and cheese ( not queso, friggin store bought cheese sauce) tasted like they came from any supermarket, the chips were horrible.. The wait staff were nice and friendly, the location is superb, pity the food wasn't as nice as the location. Ain't going back anytime soon. read more

Definitely more Midwestern in that it's not spicy at all, but the food tasted great and the service was exceptional! The margarita was a wonderful way to finish off a Friday night. Loved the Dia de Los Muertos mural. My little (6 years old) who typically rejects beans, happily ate them mixed with rice (broadening his horizons!). read more

As others will say, the food is alright, the view of the beach is nice, but the prices are overpriced (typical of Lake Country). If you want a place to eat on main street in pewaukee/next to the beach, this is a decent spot. If you want Mexican there are a few more authentic and reasonably priced options within a few miles. read more

If you want very basic Mexican food that at least provides a view of the beach head to this place. They simply have Burritos and tacos none of which were very tasty whatsoever and quite bland. Else for a more authentic and tasty experience (sans outdoor view) head to Casa Tequila instead. Much larger menu selection and oh so good! read more

I'll start by saying Seesters has been in Pewaukee a solid 15 years and I'm just now trying it. So far, I haven't missed much. They have a limited non-alcoholic drink selection and what they do have is outrageously overpriced, as you'd expect from a Pewaukee Lake restaurant. I went with raspberry lemonade and it was fantastic. An order of nachos came up as quick as can be expected. The chips came first, from the same bag you'd find at any gas station across America, then from the microwave. Important to note is their use of Cilantro, an ingredient many "Mexican" fare establishments lack. The steak tostada's were average, but the Salsa Verde is what made the entree shine. I wouldn't be in a huge rush to come back, but I can see why people who don't get out much enjoy Seesters. read more

I like it in the summer but itnis definitely OVER priced! Lunch for two with alcohol can easily be 45 to 50 bucks! And you are getting regular none fancy Mexican American food. read more

Good view poor service and the food is so-so...I would suggest making your own Mexican at home and enjoy a picnic on the beach instead.

To be honest, I had very low expectations for a Mexican place located on Pewaukee beach. I figured their existence was assured due to a complete lack of competition and a beautiful view, so the food would be mediocre at best. For one dish, and one dish only (so far), I have to admit that I was wrong. The spicy grilled tilapia on corn tacos, loaded with the homemade green salsa for some extra kick, were delicious, if a bit messy. Service was excellent as well. I opted not to explore the drink menu, so I can't comment on that. My expectations are again low. A friend of mine confirmed that the drinks are unexceptional and overpriced, which isn't surprising considering their location. read more

Good food, fair service, but you do not get free Chips and salsa!!! Isn't this a staple for Mexican restaurants!!!?? Not to mention it's 6.50 for a guacamole and honestly ten chips. We had a group of 8 and that's one chip ea about. So then we asked well seeing we bought chips and guac with a large group could we have refill. Nope. So keep that in mind! read more

Patio is a bit tight but the food makes up for it. Great fast Mexican option and the guacamole is so fresh and good! Highly recommend

Food here is alright; a bit overpriced for what you get though. $5 for a small basket of chips and a small serving of guac. Really? It is small and pretty cramped: probably a fire hazard actually. The view is beautiful on the patio and the margaritas are slamming. Lots of young people working there and the hostess was nice enough to hold a good view table outside when one was available. Overall, go for the margaritas and maybe some food if you need to soak up the liquor. read more

4 stars for scenery and views of the lake. Love summertime outdoor seating. Coronaritas were excellent. 2 stars for price. Wife and I had 3 drinks total and a meal each. After tip $76. Will definitely go back but maybe for just drinks. read more

Welcoming and kind staff, wonderful view, and great food!! Tinga tacos amazing as well as the mushroom quesadilla appetizer !

The owner Lynn ruins this whole place. Most of the waitresses and waiters are great but you don't ever want to deal with the owner. I've been there a couple of times and will never go back. Menu is very unimaginative for a Mexican restaurant, the prices are way too high because the owner says you are paying for the scenery. Yes she really said that. Save your money and go somewhere else. read more

Ridiculous that you have to pay for chips and salsa. They take advantage of being the only Mexican restaurant with a lake view. Overpriced drinks and servers are always in a hurry to get you to move on. Okay food, but not really authentic. read more

Exceptional Mexican food on the shore of pewaukee lake. Both fish tacos dishes on the menus are best place to start but don't stop there. The rest of the menu is worth investigating. The patio is a great place to watch the sunset and it is dog friendly so no need to leave the Pooch at home. They do charge to chips and salsa which is unusual for most most Mexican restaurants, but the the pico and chips and a cut above most so it is ok with me. read more

Location is Great! Chips were straight from a bag along with the cheese dip, the guacamole was frozen Not fresh! If you drink tea don't ask for more then one refill THEY CHARGE YOU TWICE, come on it costs the restaurant no more then 10 cents for the refill REALLY charge me again. They Don't take AMEX ! I was entertaining a local customer of mine and he said he won't be back! Service was poor even though we were seated right next to the service window, which by the way was in the middle of the dining room instead of around the corner by the restrooms. My customer said that if they were going to make it they will have to reach out to the locals and right now he will NOT be back, and I will Not be back also! Nice try but you are missing the mark! read more

I go to Seesters all the time during the summer. Their steak tacos are awesome, and I also loved their al pastor burrito. The location is nice, too, with a great view of Pewaukee lake. The only downside is the price, though they do tend to have decent seasonal specials. read more

Great location on the lakefront. Food is OK, but pretty pricey. Guessing they pay a small fortune in rent.

Mexican food place and no chips and salsa?? Over priced even for the lake area. Sorry but this is a poor value and not very pleasant. Cannot recommend for eating a meal. read more

The shrimp avocado tacos are fantastic. $14.95 price isn't. No rice, no beans, nothing but two small tacos 6 shrimp total. Not to mention a 40 minute wait for it. Their clientele must consist of first timers only. Nobody in their right mind would go back. read more

I was very disappointed with my experience here. First of all, they didn't offer complimentary chips and salsa like every other Mexican restaurant does. The food is very overpriced and just average. No sides come with the entrees and they charge extra for everything!! Will not go back..you can get much better Mexican food elsewhere. Will not pay this much just for a lake view! read more

Location is great! I felt like a fancy food critique just looking for the flavor in the all food! The ride tasted like microwave Uncle bens rice. And who puts lettuce in a burrito? Reheating no longer an option. Overall overpriced for what you get. $70 for two people, would have been maybe $50 at any other authentic Mexican place. Server was super nice! read more

Expensive, loud, bland food. The beef in my taco was dry and tasteless. The noise was deafening...we crammed into a dining room so small that others were seated 18 inches from us. We tried this for our anniversary and were disappointed. Taco Bell would've been a better choice. Don't waste your money. $12 margaritas?? read more

Was told I was disrespectful for expressing that a few more vegan/vegetarian dishes would really help the buisness because there is a large clientele base in the area. No substitutions?! Seriously, you can't keep meat out and slap some guach in instead....rediculous. read more

Love this place!! Great in the summertime!! Tacos & Margaritas are wonderful!

We love this place! Awesome view, fantastic margaritas, delicious fish tacos and enchiladas.

The food here was decent, although a bit pricy. The margarita was outstanding, and I don't mind paying for outstanding. The service was good but the restaurant was a little crammed. I will stop back here again for drinks. read more

What a family!!! Not originally being from the area we have found our new family. This restaurant caters to your personal requests with attention to details. The bartenders make an incredible "Coronarita" as well as many other favorites. The waitresses are prompt and friendly. They are quick to make suggestions and will adapt to your special needs. The food is authentic and delicious. We challenge everyone to make this your Spring/Summer 2017 hangout. Let's have fun in Pewaukee. read more

Refried beans are not supposed to be cold and watery. The enchilada sauce tasted canned.. Way overpriced for what you get. I guess you're paying for the view. read more

This is a fun place with a beautiful view of Pewaukee Lake and great outside patio. I love the portabella quesadilla. It's my favorite.

I've always thought Mexican restaurants would be smart to charge a couple bucks for their chips and salsa but Seester's takes that concept to the extreme. $8.25 for a small basket of chips, half a cup of pico and half a cup of guac. We asked for a few more chips and were charged another $1.50. The food is mediocre at best, the restaurant is small and loud. If you want a nice view of the lake and you aren't in search of good Mexican food or decent value, this is your place, otherwise look elsewhere. read more
