I went to a tasting event at Sobie’s restaurant in Oconomowoc tonight and found it to be a delightful experience from start to finish. The atmosphere and decor were both beautiful and inviting. The service was impeccable — my water glass and coffee cup were never empty, and the wait staff was attentive and friendly. The walleye and side dishes were delicious, fresh and generous in their portions! I can’t say enough good things about our experience and would highly recommend this restaurant.
Bryant and I went last night for our first time and everything was outstanding! Caribbean jerk broasted wings were the best flavor ever! The tomato soup was meaty and flavorful without the acid, and the duckwich was so flavorful and unique on the homemade corn masa tortilla. We will definitely be back!
My wife and I sat at the bar for a couple drinks. Bartender was great. Loved the walnut bar top and local beers.
We got crab cakes which I liked very much. They were not “soggy” like so many crab cakes are. These had nice chunks of crab and red bell pepper, coated in panko. I got split pea soup with ham and it was great.
I got Delmonico Steak, medium rare and it was fantastic. The mushroom wine sauce was nice and didn’t overpower the steak. It came with chef’s choice of sides, which were mashed sweet potatoes and green beans, both very good.
My wife had Tournedos au Poivre which was also very good. She got green beans and a potato au gratin type thing.
Our waitress and bartender were excellent.
Sobie’s is a nice addition to Oconomowoc and we’ll be back.
I’ve gone their twice. Both times food was excellent!!! Service was great also. Highly recommend this place
Lydia and Mike plus the staff are amazing. Have to say that this was some of best food I’ve ever had. Anything they offer is beyond delicious and fresh. The service is so good that you you feel they truly appreciate you coming in. It is apparent they took great time and pride creating this wonderful culinary delight. Wish I could go here every day. More than highly recommend.
We went to Sobie’s our first time for date night this past weekend....the food is incredible! We shared 6 broasted wings over a glass of really yummy cab. Then for dinner, I ordered the wild mushroom stroganoff.....my husband had one of the specials....smoked pork chop, bone in, with white truffle oil mashed potatoes. Both meals were among the more flavorful, best food we have had in the world! The service was spot on, as well�. Welcome to Oconomowoc, Sobie’s.....we will be regulars, for sure!

My son and I went to dinner, this eve. We ran into good friends, and shared a table. We arrived early, and by the time we left, the room was full. Our server, Meg, was very friendly and accommodating. Two of us had the salmon (deelish), my son had the beef medallions, and my friend had the ceviche scallops. We all thought our food was great. There was a small timing glitch with the delivery of our entrees, but other than that, it was wonderful. It will undoubtably become a local favorite. 👍
If you are in Oconomowoc make sure to check out this great new restaurant. Very cute. The food was delicious...all fresh and local ingredients. Our party tried the broasted chicken, beef tenderloin sandwich, lump crab cobb salad and the make your own burger and everything was absolutely spectacular!
The owner is extremely friendly. Please support this great new local eatery!
First time dining here this evening and I will look forward to returning again soon. Our waitress (Amy) was very knowledgeable and attentive. The cup of chicken/curry soup was excellent. Entree was the Gorgonzola stuffed tenderloin with a sweet potato hash as a side w/ green beans. Everything was prepared perfectly and my steak was super tender, cooked exactly as requested. The cheesecake with apple topping could be slight improved if the apples/caramel sauce were warmed. Very much appreciated the nice cloth napkins. The acoustics make for a very noisy dinning room and it was only about 1/2 full at the time. However, this was the only negative in an otherwise excellent dining experience. As another business owner in downtown Oconomowoc, I wish you many years of success - so happy you’re here!
Went here this past Friday with my wife, son and a friend. We had a reservation and we were seated right on time. The staff was extremely friendly and the food was amazing. We had appetizers, main courses and desert. We had to take the desert home though since we were so full from our meal. Definitely looking forward to coming again!
My sister and I went mid-May for lunch. We the first people in at the time but it filled up quickly. We both had the lump crab salad. It was fantastic!! I would eat that salad every day 😊I will be eating at Sobie's again and again!
We came here for a Friday Fish Fry. We did make reservations and I would highly recommend making reservations! We had attentive service. We ordered a spinach and artichoke dip for an appetizer and it probably was the best spinach dip we’ve had in a LONG time!! We loved the atmosphere and the unique menu. We will be back!
Stopped in for a few appetizers before a wedding! If you like food on the spicy side this is the place to go. The smoked Manhattan was outstanding! Prices are great with great service.
We sat at the bar and she ordered the Scallops and I got the Steak Poutines.
The Scallops and Risotto were perfect... buttery. My steak was also very good with some nice cheese and Demi-glace on the crunchy fries. My wife had already been here and loved it and tonight was no disappointment!
When it comes to consistency Sobie's takes the cake! It is so hard to review a restaurant because one day its delicious and the next day it is so so. Sobie's is fantastic every single time! It has become the staple restaurant for anyone who comes to visit us. Each server we have had has been attentive and kind. The most impressive thing was the night an employee took our reservation accidently after they closed. They still seated us and cooked us a great meal all with a smile and good attitude. After spending a year in WI we are happy to have found a great restaurant to go to! I recommend them to anyone who comes to town!
Food and cocktails were great! Staff was friendly, however, during the afternoon our server was sweeping floor with broom and bringing glass ware out to bar area, all while trying to keep up with timely service. The only negative I have is one of the kitchen staff came out to bar area with is apron and our server both were wiping their noses in front of us while we were eating. There needs to be better hygiene with staff. No hand sanitizer to be had after wiping their noses. That may be what deters us from going back.
Note to owner, please train staff with basic restaurant hygiene, washing hands, and not sweeping while customers are eating. Nothing negative to say about our food.
What a pleasant dining experience. Temperature was well regulated. Menu is very interesting. The food was quality and very flavorful. Reservations were made and honored well. There is a low level of background sound, but definitely not noisy. Had carry out here before and was very pleased. Dining in was even better. The wait staff had mediocre Covid precautions.
If you want very good farm to table cuisine, this is the place to go. The drink menu was pleasantly unusual and the desserts were fantastic. Go ahead, enjoy!
Went on mother's day which was super busy and normally the food and service isn't good at most places on those days but they knocked it out of the park with us. Everything we tried was fantastic from soup to cocktails to meals and dessert! Staff was very friendly and fun to talk to. We will most certainly be back!
