Finally got to the Dirty Oar for supper and had a great meal. Reservations are a good idea as they are open limited hours and seating limited tables – staffing seems to be a challenge in this area. On the shores of Lake Petenwell, the views are lovely and this restaurant has the white tablecloth supper club vibe where you can show up in jeans or dress up a little if you are celebrating. Entrees come with choice of soup or salad, a potato choice (twice baked was heavenly) and a a couple of pieces of steamed broccoli. We had a well executed meal from appetizer to dessert, and if I were to get nit-picky one of our steaks was more of a late medium than medium rare, but was still delicious and tender. Appetizers were delicious, steaks were flavorful, lobster sweet, desserts (the two choices available were salted caramel cheesecake on a pretzel crust and apple streudel) were a tasty finish. Overall, the meal was spot on and portion size generous. It’s a little pricier dining option, but worth it! Dirty Oar will be one of our go-tos for dining out in the area!

The last time I said “best steak I’ve ever had” was 11 years ago in Hilton Head, South Carolina, but lil’ Rome, WI just became the new champion! I had the 18oz Ribeye, and it was so good I couldn’t stop eating it!
But that was not all, this place is an absolute gem! Everything there is made from absolute scratch. My wife and I haven’t been able to find anything like that anywhere else in the area. Everything tasted great: My wife’s shrimp dish, the Buffalo cauliflower appetizer, and if the Chef is making Kuchen, you must try it!
Additionally, the owners were great! We met them after our meal. The wife runs the front of the house and pours drinks at the bar, and the husband is cooking every meal. Great people who didn’t have to take the time to have a conversation with us, but did anyways, just because we asked! The salt of the earth for sure!
Finally, the restaurant itself is gorgeous! My wife and I had had our rehearsal dinner for our wedding at the same location when it used to be called The Hideaway. I remember my wife commenting that the place looked “on its last legs,” but growing up in the area, she also mentioned that’s what she came to expect from what was around. That is not the case now! The owners have completely turned the property around! Clean rustic interior, beautiful decks by the waterfront, and gorgeous landscaping (which is kept up by the owner herself).
Everything here makes you feel like you’re stepping back in time. High quality atmosphere, amazing food, and great owners who care about there business and are there every day! You just don’t find places like this anymore. So, grab someone you love and take them out for something truly special!

First off, finding the parking lot was a challenge. Only half the gate was open and it’s not clearly marked. Dinner was mediocre at best. Shrimp was overdone, making it tough to cut and rubbery to chew. Prices were high, 3 stuffed shrimp for $30+. Wasn’t offered fresh cracked pepper on the salad, but the table next to us was. Wasn’t offered a carafe of water, but the table next to us was. The only dessert available was a strudel type dish, and to be honest, it’s something that tasted like it came out of a middle school home economics class. No cakes, no pies, no ice cream drinks. For a birthday outing, this was a high priced disappointment. Here’s the Tuscan Shrimp dinner I ordered. Do yourself a favor and skip it.

My neighbors and I travel around the area to have dinner at different supper clubs. Last Friday, we visited The Dirty Oar. It was about an hour drive to get there, but well worth traveling the distance! The service was warm and welcoming. Our servers Juan and Sarah, handled our group of seventeen graciously and efficiently. Colleen, one of the owners gave us an interesting overview of the restaurant’s history and her own personal story regarding it. We were made to feel like family!
The food was outstanding! The fish fry was excellent, the pecan crusted Walleye, the shrimp, the Salmon, and the loaded 16 oz Ribeye were thoroughly enjoyed! They were cooked to perfection and beautifully presented! They offer a mashed sweet potato that was the perfect blend of sweet and savory. The drinks, especially the Old Fashions were excellent!
We give The Dirty Oar high marks!

We always have a lovely time! The food is always expertly prepared and the wait staff is friendly-the quintessential Wisconsin supper club experience.

We had 5 o clock reservation for Friday night. Got seated immediately. Had a wonderful view of the sunset over the frozen lake. Service wasn’t the best. Had to ask another waitress to find ours and our waitress would walk away while a question was being asked. Had to ask about the specials since we weren’t told about them. Appetizers soups salad to main entrees were excellent. This is definitely a pricey place. Paid $26 for scallops and risotto which had 3 scallops although they were beautifully cooked. Will definitely be back. Was surprised when we pulled up at the outside. It looked like a hole in the wall but inside it was a beautiful supper club atmosphere.

Great whiskey Old Fashioned to start the evening, great waitstaff service and EXCELLENT steaks. My wife had the surf & turf, both lobster and the tenderloin were done perfectly! We drove 1.5 hours and will definitely be back 2 more times this year!! I would rate this one of the top 5 of the best Supper Clubs in Wisconsin! Great atmosphere and view of the lake to end the day!!! Well worth it!!
