The Social - Elkhart Lake

Great atmosphere, unfortunately we stood at the door for ten minutes before even being seated. We proceeded to wait for an additional twenty minutes without even being greeted before we finally gave up and left.

Terrible. Awful. Amateur hour. Go to Lake Street Cafe.

Brunch was excellent. Also love the Saturday night vibe. The place basically turns into a club with dance music you can't catch anywhere else.

Review of The Social Restaurant:My recent dining experience at The Social left much to be desired. Although the ambiance was pleasant and the waiter somewhat attentive, the overall service was frustratingly slow. Even the bartender seemed to struggle with making a simple drink, and the fact that it took so long despite the restaurant being nearly empty was puzzling.The disappointment didn't end with the service. The appetizers were lackluster at best. The coconut shrimp had just a meager sprinkle of coconut flakes, barely adding any flavor to the dish. The ceviche, advertised to be filled with a variety of flavors, turned out to be nothing more than giant clumps of shrimp dominating the plate.Moving on to the main courses, unfortunately, the problems persisted. The trout lacked any discernible flavor, making it a forgettable and uninspiring dish. The steak and potatoes were a huge letdown as well; it seemed as if they had been soaked in a salt mine, making them nearly inedible.Amidst all the disappointment, there was one saving grace the skillet cookie. It was the only dish that managed to impress, with its rich and gooey goodness, providing a satisfying end to an otherwise underwhelming meal.In summary, The Social fell short of expectations. Slow service, lackluster appetizers, and distasteful main courses make it difficult for me to recommend this restaurant wholeheartedly. Perhaps they have potential, but for now, they need to work on improving their menu and kitchen efficiency to truly live up to their name.

We had an awesome dinner at The Cottonwood Social. The drinks, food, and dessert were all delicious and the service was wonderful! One of the best dining views you can get in Wisconsin!
