Known for its unique menu featuring wild game fused with classic fine dining, our mission is to bring people together while creating a memorable dining experience surrounded by historic photos of the town along with Union House frequenters, Lynn Fontanne and Alfred Lunt. The menu is driven by ingredients and is constantly developing throughout the year led by award-winning Executive Chef and General Manager, Dan Harrell and Executive Sous Chef, Christian Garcia-Cortez. We feature an extensive wine, scotch and bourbon list highlighting selections from around the United States and world along with barrel-aged old fashioneds and Manhattans that include our very own hand-crafted bitters.

    Our dining out level is probably a little more than average; with one or two nights a week, and at least one really nice dinner each month. Our go-to restaurant for the upscale dining experience is The Union House. Always good service, always good food, and the staff is always excellent. We really appreciate the history of the building itself but also the photos on the walls. As an extra bonus, the music is absolute perfection for upscale dining.

    Rob, thank you so much for the 5 stars and very kind words! Reviews like these make all the hard work we put in day in and day out worth even more! We will be sure to pass along the kind words to staff and John as well. Thank you again, cheers!

    Both food and service are a solid very good. The restaurant has a great old school ambiance, dark wood and dim lighting, a great place for a special Wisconsin night out.

    Our server did a wonderful job. The girl who kept our waters topped off GREAT JOB! Order filet medium rare and it came out medium well, our server took care of it right away and brought me a perfect medium rare filet in place of that one. Everything else was great no issues at all. We both enjoyed our meals.

    Hi Chris, thank you for the kind words and review. We are happy that you made note of your steak at the time of your visit and we were able to fix it on site. That being said I hope you visit us soon so we can get that 4 star to a 5!
