of the Agents of Compass Wisconsin

From the historic charm of Richmond to the serene shores of Williams Bay and Lake Como, Compass agents have curated the ultimate guide to the region’s best-kept secrets, iconic supper clubs, and premier waterfront fare.

Lake Geneva

As the crown jewel of the region, downtown Lake Geneva pairs its historic Gilded Age charm with a high-energy culinary scene.

“When I’m looking for a low-key
night in Lake Geneva, I love stopping
by Owl Tavern. It’s a charming,
‘lakey’ neighborhood dive bar with
a great local feel—and their Tuesday
night tacos are a total must-try! You
really can’t go wrong starting your
morning or ending your night at this
neighborhood favorite.”

“For something a bit more refined
in Lake Geneva, I always take my
friends to Sabai Sabai. They have,
hands down, the best crab rangoons
I’ve ever had. In fact, every single
person I bring there always talks
about how good they are. It is
consistently one of my favorite spots
to share with guests!”

Lake Como

As the crown jewel of the region, downtown Lake Geneva pairs its historic Gilded Age charm with a high-energy culinary scene.

“For a classic Lake Como experience, I always head to Mars Resort for lunch or dinner. It has that authentic, nostalgic supper club feel that is so hard to find, and the food is consistently outstanding. In the warmer months, you can’t beat the outdoor seating—there is nothing better than enjoying a meal while taking in the beautiful waterfront views. Whether you’re stopping in for a lakeside lunch or a cozy dinner, the vibe is always spot on. It is truly one of my favorite places to relax and enjoy the best of the lake!”

“Just outside of Lake Geneva in Como, Papa’s Blue Spruce is my absolute favorite spot for a casual lunch. They take ‘homemade’ to the next level—everything from their sauces to their
signature batters is made right in-house. The deep-fried mushrooms are a total standout, but you really can’t leave without trying one of their smash burgers. They’ve won ‘Best Burger’ several times for a reason! It’s that perfect local diner atmosphere where you know every bite is made from scratch.”

“My absolute favorite for a Friday fish fry is The Getaway. It has become our go-to spot for family night, and we just love the atmosphere. Whether you’re there for the fish or their other menu options, the quality is always something we enjoy. In the summer, the outdoor seating is spectacular, offering a beautiful view that’s hard to beat. Plus, they often have live entertainment during the season, which really adds to the fun, lakeside vibe. It’s the perfect place to kick off the weekend with the family!”

Williams Bay

Just west of the main hustle, Williams Bay offers a more relaxed, ‘lake life’ pace, home to some of the area’s best-hidden waterfront provisions.

“We really love the location and the overall vibe of Pier 290. It is truly hard to beat when I’m entertaining clients or hosting family and friends; the gorgeous lake views create the perfect backdrop for any occasion. The wonderful wait staff always makes us feel taken care of, which makes for such a seamless experience. Whether you’re looking to impress guests or just want a relaxing afternoon by the water, it’s one of my top choices for showing off the best of the lake!”

“When I’m in Williams Bay, one of my absolute go-to places is Pier 290. It’s such a staple for me because you truly can’t beat the experience of being right on the water. Whether I’m looking for a great meal or just want to soak in the lakeside atmosphere, it’s a spot I find myself returning to again and again!”

Richmond

Just a stone’s throw from the bustle of Lake Geneva, the historic village of Richmond, Illinois, offers a cozy, ‘small-town-cool’ vibe with a surprisingly diverse dining scene.

“When I’m in the mood for Italian, I always head over to Paisano’s in Richmond. It is one of those rare spots that is consistently good every time you go, and everything is very reasonably priced for the quality you get. The eggplant parm is my absolute favorite, but
they have so many good choices on the menu that it’s hard to pick just one. It’s the perfect local go-to when you want a great meal in a relaxed, welcoming setting!”

“I always enjoy visiting The Hunt Club for its incredibly charming atmosphere and a menu
that truly celebrates local Wisconsin brands. It’s one of those places where the quality of the ingredients really shines through in every dish. My absolute favorites are the unbelievable Parker House rolls, the tuna carpaccio, and their signature Hunter’s onion soup. You can’t go wrong with their prime steaks, and I always make sure to check out the weekly food specials—they are consistently amazing! It’s the perfect spot for a delicious, locally inspired meal.”
