Description

A beloved casual spot in Waukesha County, Grill 164 is known for an acclaimed fish fry, hearty steaks, burgers and potato pancakes, a lively long bar, and friendly, attentive staff who make celebrations feel special. Regular nightly specials and reliable takeout draw crowds, though experiences vary: some guests report uneven cooking, inconsistent portions, occasional service slip‑ups, limited wheelchair access and spotty air conditioning. Overall it’s a welcoming, down‑home destination for seafood lovers, families and groups, with room to improve kitchen consistency and accessibility.

Went to Grill 164 for lunch today and it was awesome. I am not a seafood person but their fish fry is soooooooooo good. Also enjoy their potato pancakes. Never had a bad meal here. Wish they were closer so we can eat there more.

I've been visiting this place once a month since April, and I have to say it's my favorite spot to eat, drink, and socialize with strangers in Oconomowoc. The staff is fantastic, especially Tim on Thursday nights, and the local crowd is very welcoming. The jukebox always plays great tunes, and the food is consistently excellent. I typically come alone and end up making four new friends each time. I absolutely love this bar!

I had a fantastic evening trying the prime rib special. The meat was cooked to perfection, and the vegetables were deliciously buttery. The service was also quick and friendly.

Stopped in for fish tonight after our walk around town. How can a fish fry type place get themselves out of bread? 2nd time this has happened to us here. Food just okay, nothing special. 2 fairly small pieces of fish, and 3 2 x 3 potato pancakes. Salads are good. Waiter brought back wrong change, in their favor. Warm day in July, not much for AC.Disappointed.
