Back at the Wilmot Stage Stop after several years away. Steaks are still gooder 'n snuff and not half as dusty! Amazingly after changing hands several times the quality and consistency remains. The rib eye rocks and baked potato with a 1/8 pound shard of butter inside is the heart attack you want. Salad and trio of dressings are included. Recommend sharing a side of the super fresh garlic sautéed green beans on the side. We drive from Illinois and pass all of the usual 2-star restaurants for a barely over the border treat. read more

We were looking for a traditional supper club and Stage Stop was recommended, even though the reviews were mediocre. Reservations were strongly suggested and we made them a few weeks in advance for a Saturday evening. It is located in a historic building, which is a preserved museum styled exactly as they were over a century ago. When you walk in you are in the bar area it is a large classic bar area separate from the dining section. We were seated and greeted by our server. She asked if we have been there before and when we told her we hadn't she explained the menu and provided recommendations. We started with drinks, my husband had a NA Beer and I had an Amaretto Stone Sour, prepared perfectly. Bread and crackers were provided and my husband had the Cream of Lobster Soup. It was a cream-based soup, and rich in flavor. A salad is included and comes with three homemade dressings. All were very good and it was recommended to try the roquefort on our filet, and it added a savory flavor to the steak. We each had the Filet Mignon accompanied with a large baked potato. The filet was tender. Our server made our celebration extra special by surprising us with a complimentary slice of chocolate cake. When I commented it how good it was, she shared it was from Pepperidge farm...lol. Overall, a true supper club experience. read more

We had a large party and had a very early reservation on a Saturday late afternoon. Apparently, if you want a prime time reservation, you must book it a few weeks in advance. We did get a chance to visit the second and third floors which we highly recommend. The gal that answers the reservation phone number and calls you to remind you of your reservation is on the second floor. In between the phone calls, she provides some history and all sorts of really neat info about the building. What was happening during that period of time, etc. Our server was very attentive, provided excellent recommendations and was very accommodating to all our questions and needs. The food was fantastic. Everyone in our party got steak and potatoes. A few also tried the lobster tail. My favorite part was the side of mushrooms. They were the sautéd with butter and garlic - simply the best. We also had a few cocktails, which came out nice and cold and the mixed drinks were perfect. We were stuffed from the great portions, but ordered a grasshopper to sip and that was also delicious. While I don't live in the area any longer. I was super excited to try stage stop again after so many years. I'm so glad we gave it another try and equally so very happy that some of the traditions such as the giant block of butter on your table are still going strong (which by the way they will bring you a to go container to take that butter with you!) read more

As always, Wilmot Stage Stop was fabulous! Making a reservation, parking, getting seated and table service was flawless. We were very well cared for. The vintage building creates a warm atmosphere that feels so inviting. The bar area is huge and comfy as well. We all tried steaks, lobster and baked potatoes. Everything was prepared perfectly. Of course the giant butter square on the table is dramatic. We had a wonderful evening celebrating a birthday. read more

Amazing meal! We had never been to the Stage Stop. While visiting family in the area, we took them out for dinner on a Sunday evening. We had reservations for 4 people at 5:30 pm. The parking lot was pretty full but there was no line of people waiting for a table. We saw the host and checked in and were seated right away. There's a bar area as you enter the main door (at the back porch). Then there's at least 2 dining rooms, maybe more. We were seated in the one nearest the bar. We had a nice 4-top table that we pulled away from the wall a few inches as my wife and I are fuller-figured and that few inches more room is just right for us. Our server came over quickly and introduced herself. Her name was Haven. She was quite pleasant and very knowledgeable about the food and drinks as well as the restaurant operation. We had all studied the online menu before we got here and knew what we wanted, so we ordered our drinks and meals all at once. We had: - Waters - Brandy Old Fashioned x 3 - Pino Grigio Wine (Santa Margherita) - Filet and Lobster Tail x 3 (one with mushrooms) - Grilled Shrimp and Lobster Tail - Salad x 4 - Baked Potato x 4 - Grasshopper x 2 (for dessert) The drinks were great if you like a Wisconsin Old Fashioned (made with brandy vs bourbon). The salads were simple and served with a small bowl each of Roquefort, French and Thousand Island. All homemade and all very tasty. A basket of 4 dinner rolls came out with the salad as well. We LOVED the food. The steaks are chargrilled and were cooked (medium rare) perfectly. We topped each with garlic butter. The lobster tails were very good. Smallish but priced accordingly. They were served with drawn butter, kept warm over a candle-based warmer. The shrimp were excellent too. Tasty and not overcooked. My wife and I shared her shrimp and my steak and each had a lobster tail. Worked out perfectly. The baked potatoes were on the smaller side but quite adequate. A huge (about 1/2 pound) piece of butter and a small bowl of sour cream was brought out for our potatoes. Way too much butter and not enough sour cream. Haven brought us a second small bowl each of sour cream and it was just perfect. For dessert, my wife and I shared a classic Grasshopper drink and my wife's cousin and his daughter shared one as well. They were very tasty. We can recommend anyone to eat here at the Wilmot Stage Stop and I look forward to eating here on our next stop in the area. read more

Visited for the first time tonight to celebrate a friends birthday! What a really nice place! We had a reservation and got seated fairly promptly. Great table, wonderful atmosphere! The rolls and butter were yummy! Sooooo much butter! The salad and choice of homemade dressings was also very good! Some at our table had the lobster soup and loved it. The shrimp cocktail was good too! Our table had steak and lobster which was a hit! As it was a birthday , they brought out a piece of cake which was very nice. Unfortunately the second floor was closed for renovation so we didn't get to see the museum- but will have to go back to check it out. Service was very good and our server was very friendly. Overall a good time was had by all. I will be going back! read more

Stopped in for a birthday dinner with our family. It has been years since I've been here and things haven't changed much, from what I recall. Didn't have time to check out the museum upstairs but I'm sure it's pretty much the same. We waited at the bar for our group to show up - at first it was packed but then it died down and picked up again. Kind of an ebb and flow. The staff were hustling the whole time and were quick to grab drinks when you could catch their attention. We were seated next to the giant stove/oven where they cook the steaks and it was uncomfortably warm. We opened a window as someone in the party was other verge of getting sick from the heat. Aside from that, it got a bit more comfortable. Our server was friendly and patient with our large, loud group. All of our orders were correct and my steak was cooked perfectly. Wished they had some different sides available (extra veggies) but I get it if this is what you do best. They don't tell you the sizes of their steaks so you kind of have to guess with the filet and sirloin. The prices are reasonable but you can't split checks which I don't love. Otherwise, nice time here. read more

The ride up was peaceful and once we arrived the setting and atmosphere outstanding. We had a birthday party of 7 and it could NOT have been better. The owner John went out of his way to show us around and talk about the cool history of the place. Food and service by Cate exceptional. My whole family says they will be back and we will bring friends!!! 6 out of 5! Well done John! The Gust Group read more

The food and service was perfect!! Such a fun night with friends. Staff made us feel very special.

This was my first time here and I didn't know what to expect but my experience was great. We had a big party (for a birthday) and our waitress was very friendly and got all of our food orders correct. Their martinis are pretty good, definitely strong. I had the lamb chops and they were cooked to perfection and the baked potato was really good. The vibe of the place was really nice, family friendly apparently there are two museums upstairs you can tour before or after you eat. I highly recommend going. read more

Food, Great, Service, Great, Ambiance Nice but be prepared for a steep bill. I feel in the economy now, prices are a bit much.

We have visited the Wilmot Stage Stop for many years and have always enjoyed the food! Our last several visits have been awesome as the Chef who knows what he is doing has acknowledged us and our waitress the last few times has been Taylor! Taylor has raised the bar on our dining experience to a new level. We truly enjoy our time at the Stage Stop! The Chef makes certain your dinner is out of this world and Taylor makes your time in the resturant an absolute pleasure. She is on it and has a lot of fun with you at the same time. Thank You for a great experience and an awesome dinner! See you all very soon! read more

Another fantastic time at Stage Stop! Went here with family to celebrate Mother's Day. It was a Saturday night, so lucky we had reservations. We were seated immediately upon arriving. We all had the house special. It was an 18 ounce "bone in" ribeye, baked potato, salad w/ homemade dressing, and a lobster tail for $59.95 per person. With the prices today, that's pretty reasonable. Our server was awesome. She was extremely personable and attentive. If you're ever in the area, I highly recommend trying this establishment. read more

Tick Tock Prepare to be harassed and bullied with their pre-allotted one hour and 15 minute timeline for dining. 6/26/25 Worst dining experience ever at Stage Stop, my former favorite restaurant for birthdays. Attempted to Catch up with my friend on his birthday for dinner that I have not seen for some time. Despite having a reservation, I was disappointed. I've been going to this restaurant for 30 years. Now money hungry, prioritizing turning tables over a pleasant dining experience. -Our server, Victoria, rushed us, repeatedly asking for our order five times in 10 minutes, sharing the next reservation time. Asked for a drink order at least 4 times. When I requested the manager, I was told this is their new operating procedure. Both the server and manager were unreasonably stern. The server assumed a tip on a $135 bill and asked if I wanted change when paying with two $100 bills. Still left a $20 tip, should have left nothing. -After stating I'd never return, the rudest female manager ever said, "Sounds good, sir." The restaurant also had flies. We left before their next "stated"reservation time. I will NEVER go back. PS My one star reviews are reserved for very special places...Stage Stop has made the all time, most awful restaurant....ever. It's their belief they can treat customers however they want with rudeness and condescension for even the appearance of possibly going over their predetermined one hour and 15 minute timeframe. It's also our birthday tradition to have ice cream drinks after dinner but I refused to spend a single penny more than 1 adult beverage each after how poorly we were treated. Cutting our evening short, arrived 430 left at 545. O Thanks Victoria and Stage Stop for destroying our night out. read more

Old stagecoach stop from 1848. Atmosphere is good, museum on the top two floors. Recommend reservations. Expensive but great food, including dry aged bone in ribeye. House-made salad dressing was very good. Their slogan includes "Heaps of butter" and you get a half pound block with your baked potato. Service was excellent. Off street parking. read more

If you are not a football fan, the time to dine is during the Superbowl. Lovely dinner, right next to the grill. Very quiet compared to normal weekend, but especially for an early Valentine's Day dinner. I had boneless ribeye, my husband had New York strip. Both cooked to perfection. HUGE POTATO and a lovely cold water lobster tail for me. If you want the best kick out of your cocktail sauce, add lemon to it. Lemon on the shrimp is not enough. Thank you again!!! Looking forward to returning again. read more

Wilmot Stage Shop called to cancel our New Year's Eve reservation, citing a change in management. I understand that operational changes happen, but canceling confirmed reservations just five days before New Year's Eve shows a serious lack of consideration for customers' plans. With guests coming in from out of town, we are now scrambling to make alternative arrangements at the last minute. While we have always had good experiences there in the past--including last New Year's Eve--this situation has left us unwilling to return once they reopen. read more

I can't believe I'm not butter after leaving Wilmot Stage Stop. The fatty inside me thanks you, while my IBS is gripping for dear life.

The Supper Club tour continues. Definitely make your reservations in advance or you are out of luck! A Saturday trip, arrived at our reservation time of 4:00-opening time,however you can get in earlier) KC our server was great and attentive. Check out the menu before hand but listen to your servers specials. 3 dressings served: French/Thousand island/roquefort. Watch for the huge chunk of butter served. Rib eye was excellent! Lobster with drawn butter under a candle like the old days. The Brandy Alexander was huge! Pineapple cheese cake was yummy. Don't forget to see the museum on the upper floor to walk off the dinner. Over all, worth the scenic drive up there. (Note: Wilmot is not much of a tourist town...sorry Wilmot) read more

If your looking to sit in the room make sure to make reservations. At the bar is good service and muddled Old Fashions. We've always have a very good meal here. Tonight I started with lobster soup which was outstanding. The drawback is the serve the appetizers and salads at the same time. Not only is that improper but one of the nostalgic traits of a supper club, is no rush and family time during dinner. Lost a star there. There were four of us and I had the steak special of the night which was an 18oz bone in ribeye. Another at the table had the traditional ribeye of the menu which was some $15 cheaper. I cannot stand a restaurant claiming bone in and it ends up being a chip and not a bone running the length of the steak. And in comparison to the standard offering, my steak was a smaller cut. wIth the hefty up charge. We did enjoy dinner and do come here as apart of our dinner tour. It's only 10min from the house. Other than what has already been mentioned dinner was very good. read more

Food was perfection! House made salad dressings were yummy. Steak was cooked exactly how I asked. Lobster was so good dipped in the melted butter. I had a delicious glass of wine with my dinner. Our waitress Laura was kind and helpful. She even surprised us with a piece of chocolate cake to celebrate our anniversary. Great service! The ambiance was cozy and leaned towards the fancy side, yet I'd still feel comfortable wearing jeans. read more

The food is delicious!!! We love coming here to celebrate special occasions! However, the last few times we were there we were asked to get up & leave the table. This was shortly after we finished dessert. We found it tacky,especially for a place where prices are upscale. When I submitted a feedback request, the answer I received was referring to someone else's feedback (the subject of that feedback was the one inability to split the check). read more

I hadn't been to the Stage stop for several years, but returned last evening. What a great decision that proved to be. We arrived early for our reservation and went to the bar.the old fashioned was perfect. Our charcoal grilled ribeyes and filet were cooked to perfection. Doused with garlic butter delicious. Ordered the accompanying Lobster tails again perfectly cooked. Great baked potato. They give you plenty of butter and sour cream. We shared a brandy Alexander for desert. Great, friendly service. Everyone seemed to love working there. I CANT WAIT TO GO BACK! read more

I was so excited to try this place. We have a summer home in Twin Lakes and my husband had been here twice. Menu was very reasonable. Lobster bisque, salad and homemade bread and butter were outstanding. I am a filet girl. Waitress spoke of some dish that was 75ish dollars. My husband got the $45 filet. Waitress mentions Kobe beef. I'm not super familiar so I asked, is it better than the filet. She was like oh yes, in my opinion. Got the steak. It was not as good as the filet. It's thinner and it was undercooked. I like medium rare, so that's telling. Get the bill. Kobe beef $130!!!!!!!!!!1 I was sick to my stomach. Waitress was like, I told you. And I said there is no way in hell I would ever pay that much for a steak. Kobe Bryant? Maybe. This was ridiculous. I felt bamboozled so I asked to speak to a manager. She said all of her staff are trained to reveal the market price list and that I should know that Kobe is way more expensive. Well she didn't and I didn't. She was super dismissive, basically shrugged and was like, too bad for you. I will NEVER go back. And it's unfortunate. Because without the Kobe debacle, I loved everything. The ambiance, rest of the food and a really good dirty martini. I wish I had read the reviews. They are not good. But like I said, my husband had two really good experiences. They should have comped me or at the very least, bought me a drink. Waitress got a very nice tip even though she was an ass. I may try to contact the owner read more

Great food and excellent service. Love the museum and knowledge of the staff and history.

Food is way over priced. Had the chicken breast for dinner, It was over cooked, dried, tough to eat and no flavor. Bar prices were way out of line. Very expensive and disappointed for the money spent. read more

Wonderful and historic place! I definitely recommend this place for its museum aspect as well as the food. Stage Stop has been around since the 1830s. The entire first floor has a bar and restaurant, and the second and third floors contain the museum. The second place once had a dance floor (now houses antique pool tables) and the third floor has a hallway of small rooms that visitors once stayed at! The food was yummy and very buttery. I ordered the lobster tails which came with a baked potato (and stick of butter in the potato) and salad. There was three type of dressings (you get all three in a tray so you can try them all). The tail was tasty and included its own butter warmer. The menu is quite simple- there was grilled meats (pork, different cuts of steak, chicken and seafood) which made selecting quite simple. The drinks were yummy. Not a lot of places have ice cream drinks but here they have a few options. I tried the "stagecoach" which had peppermint ice cream and it was good. The service was great- our waitress was attentive even though there were a lot of people in the area (this place can be crowded). My favorite part was a woman who was on the second floor who told us all about the history of the place. Plenty of free lot parking. Minus one star- we made a reservation- recommended but still ended up waiting half an hour even though we were on time. read more

For years, I've heard great things about this place from relatives in that area. All the food was excellent and the service was awesome. Especially since our group dinner was on a busy weekend. This venerable restaurant has a homey, steakhouse ambiance that is so fitting with their impressive history as an actual Stage Stop! One note. I hope they figure out how to improve the ambiant noise levels in their dinner-hall. Maybe some sound-absorbing materials? It was pretty difficult to hear conversations at our table of six a 'big' birthday celebration. read more
