   Smoke on the Water was a good overall experience. Visited on a Sunday night so the restaurant was mostly empty, so service was attentive and food came quickly. Food was pretty good, not great - table had a variety of dishes, sentiment was the same across the board. Would be a great spot in summer with the patio, will come back again when the weather is nicer to give it another try.

   Excellent drinks and service. The food was great as well. Had the brisket and smoked chicken platter. It was a very large portion for the price. We’ll be back.

   Another great experience at Smoke on the Water! We love the feel of the restaurant and the people there. It is definitely worth our drive! We brought family to celebrate a birthday and not a single person was disappointed with their food. We loved that the owners came to say hi and check how our experience was (as always). They even wished my spouse a happy birthday and offered him a dessert or birthday drink. We love that the food is great and the prices aren't out of this world expensive. You get great food at a good price. We highly recommend Smoke on the Water. It's a place to impress guests, a date night or even just a place to make new friends with the great, welcoming staff.

   Probably unfair to judge a dinner during a Badger Game, costume party and band regarding noise level, but based on today’s service and previous visits, I would definitely recommend Smoke on the Water to others.

   Our server, Shannon, was terrific. She reviewed the menu quickly and cheerfully. Our food arrived quickly, and the brisket salad was yummy. Great water view.

   Waited over 30 minutes for a server to come to our table to take our order. She apologized for the wait. Took our drink order and food order. Food came out, but no drinks. We were just about finished, didn’t see our server, so asked someone to check on our drinks. Shortly , One drink was served, but waited 15 minutes for the second one (again had to ask when our drink would arrive). We won’t be back.

   Server Jill was the best - super friendly and went out of her way to ensure my husband was able to get his favorite dessert. The sunset view on the deck is always gorgeous and the brisket is delicious. We have been here when it is crazy busy but the servers are always attentive and take the time to make sure our dining experience is enjoyable. One of our favorite places to go - we always leave happy.

    Very nice! Sat outside so enjoyed the lake view. Did not feel rushed.
