There’s something about the presence of water – moving or still, shining in sunlight or dappled by moonlight – that increases the elegance of any meal. For the second consecutive year, Wissota High Shores Supper Club (17985 County Hwy. X, Chippewa Falls) is our readers’ favorite for waterfront dining. Cowboy Jack’s (1432 Front Porch Pl., Altoona) may not be right on the water, but the presence of the tree-lined Eau Claire River adds much to its ambience. And with the help of nearby Tainter Lake, Jake’s Supper Club (E5690 County Hwy. D, Menomonie) brings a tasteful third course to the category. –Tom Giffey
