Wisconsin Restaurant + Catering Showcase

You know that people will talk after your event is over. One of the best ways to guarantee the gossip is good is to make sure the menu is “Mmm-mmm magnificent.” At meetingpages, we can help you make that happen by serving up the latest dish on what’s hot, what’s new and who’s cuisine will treat your guests’ taste buds to culinary delights. 

My Compliments to the Chef

The joy of cooking is only surpassed by the joy of eating. That’s why you’ll want to choose a restaurant with private dining that boasts the talents of renowned chefs. The Grand Geneva Resort & Spa takes pride in their creative chefs at both Geneva ChopHouse and Ristoranté Brissago. From Duck Salad with Orange-Ginger Rice and Marmalade to Wild Mushroom Tortellini with Roasted Tomato Sauce, these chefs use only the finest ingredients.

While in the Dells, only the mouthwatering grilled specialties of the Kaminski Brothers Chophouse will do. A perennial Wisconsin favorite at the Chula Vista Resort + Conference Center, the celebrated chefs there specialize in the most classic of American foods. Team building activities at the Kalahari Waterpark Resort Convention Center begin with a hearty breakfast fueled by an Oatmeal Bar or a Fitness First Break Bar featuring Fresh, Fat-Free Yogurt with Assorted Toppings, Low-Fat Muffins, Granola Bars and a Variety of Juices.

The chefs at the elegant Heidel House Resort & Spa craft their cuisine with your guests in mind. Tempting hors d’oeuvres include assorted Sushi and Sashimi, Herb Cheese Stuffed Cherry Tomatoes or Smoked Salmon and Watercress.

Then again, you may want to book your bunch at Destination Kohler's American Club Resort for a five-diamond brunch that includes Traditional Eggs Benedict and Canadian Bacon or Chef-Carved Garlic-Studded Beef Rib Eye followed by Chocolate Duchess of Parma Tortes. From casual to classy, the chefs at the Osthoff Resort’s eateries – Lola’s on the Lake and Otto’s Restaurant – know how to cater to your tastes with creativity, freshness and flavor.

Maybe your budget can’t carry your clan across the pond, but that doesn’t mean your guest can’t savor the flavors of surf and turf. The finest quality seafood, steaks and chops to be had in the area can be found at The Abbey Resort & Avani Spa. Whatever you choose, your guests will be sure to send their compliments to the chef!

Catering to Your Tastes

Need a menu and a venue to make that meeting more memorable? Why not go Italiano at any one of the famed Bartlotta restaurants? Dining can be delizioso at the stylish Bacchus; the casual Lake Park Bistro; the notable Mr. B’s Steakhouse; or the traditional Ristorante Bartolotta.

Or if you’re looking for extraordinary food served in an out-of-the-ordinary atmosphere, there’s a place for every taste at any one of the FoodFight Restaurants; the Hubbard Ave Diner (50s-style joint famous for their pie); Johnny Delmonico’s Steakhouse (voted Madison’s best); or the Market Street Diner (with Carl’s classic cakes).

For gourmet dining in a casual atmosphere, invite your guests to belly up to the historical bar at Nells City Grill or for larger events, The City Brewery Hospitality Center. Either one of these entertaining locations offers an array of menu selections from appetizers to grilled favorites.

The BMO Harris Bradley Center and the Lambeau Field Atrium caters to your attendees appetite for hockey, basketball or football, as well as fabulous fare that goes beyond a ballpark hotdog. For something truly unique, try the Monona Terrace. Artfully designed by legendary architect, Frank Lloyd Wright, your guests will relish the atmosphere while enjoying Escargot and Garlic Stuffed Mushrooms, Oysters Rockefeller or Fried Calamari with Remoulade Sauce.

Or if the waterside is more your style, order up fresh water and seafood favorites at the Waterfront Restaurant and Tavern or Coast – a Zilli Restaurant where they serve a Cedar Plank Walleye that’s some of the best in the Midwest. For larger gatherings, Zilli’s Grandview Inn offers everything from appetizers to desserts in non-traditional cuisines, such as Indian or Kosher style.

What Do You Recommend?

Just can’t decide? Ask the experts … they’ll tell you. Whether you’re looking for classic and elegant, business-like and corporate, or fun and funky, your local CVB can offer you suggestions (for FREE!) that you might not have considered before.

Located in one of eastern Wisconsin’s most picturesque regions, the folks at Visit Eau Claire know how to handle hearty appetites. Meanwhile, the gang at LaCrosse CVB may have a tip or two when it comes to favorite national restaurant chains or unique, independently owned bistros local to their area.

Culture and history converge on Lake Winnebago where the Oshkosh CVB can offer you hundreds of choices for restaurants, venues and caterers. Or if you’re looking for the perfect balance between work and play, query the folks at the Wisconsin Dells VCB for the can’t-miss-culinary classics on their map.
