Fine Dining

High Shores Supper Club

Home of “fine dining in a casual atmosphere,” High Shores is nestled on the edge of Lake Wissota. The kitchen cuts the trademark steaks by hand and menu favorites like the blackened ribeye and stuffed fillet mignon just might turn you into a regular. Seafood options like perch, blue gills, crappies, king crab, tiger shrimp, and salmon won't hurt, either. If the weather’s nice, motor up to one of the restaurant’s lake docks. Ask about the dinner cruise. Outdoor seating, vegetarian friendly, private party pavilion.

Avg Price: Entrée: $10-$20

Fine Dining

Houligans Steak & Seafood Pub

Rich, worn-in woodwork threads across the walls of Houligans - take a seat at the bar, or in the cozy dining area. It's a great place to grab a beer and a hearty meal. The menu offers a top-notch selection of steaks and seafood, but the Candied Garlic New York Strip is the big crowd-pleaser. Outdoor seating, private party room, vegetarian friendly.
