Badger Burger Company Oconomowoc - Oconomowoc, Wisconsin

A nice spot where we didn't have to wait for a table. However the service was pretty slow (maybe understaffed). The food was average, and for such a large menu, there were very little options for a vegetarian. I would be fine not going back. The thin crust pizza was pretty good if you're in the mood for pizza.

Came here again. And unfortunately the experience was a bit degraded since the previous one. Came with a friend for an afternoon lunch. Got a couple of burgers that were good, but not great. The burger was well made up, cooked to the right temperature, but the hamburger meat itself just was not that flavorful.
Also, the initial service was good, but then our server was MIA during the latter part of the meal. After we got the check, never even stopped back to collect the signed bill. I am hoping that this downward trend is not going to continue.

I’ve been to several of the Badger Burgers. First time at the Oconomowoc location. Had the most cheerful/helpful server (thanks Justin). The food was the usual, quick, hot, and cooked to the right temperature (medium rare please). I skipped the fries and got a side salad (which unfortunately looked/tasted a bit lifeless 🙁)

My friend got the big pretzel with extra cheese. That was also very good.

Want a good burger? This is the place.

You can truly not go wrong by ordering anything from Badger Burger Company - from their burgers to their sandwiches to their appetizers to their Friday fish fry. Their clam chowder is outstanding.

Went here recently for a Friday fish fry. We made a reservation in advance and were seated right away. Then, we were forgotten. It was not busy at all, but it took more than 10 minutes for a server to come over for our drink order. A party of four seated behind us ended up leaving due to being ignored. When I brought it up to the hostess, she shrugged it off and told me that they were always at the restaurant and left when they felt they weren’t getting attention (but even if this were true, I don’t blame them given the poor service we experienced). People seated after us were provided with service before us. Most of the members of our party preferred the fish fry. Even though the waitress brought every other table rye bread and coleslaw, we didn’t get this even though it’s included in the meal. It took forever to get refills on fountain drinks. Then, even though the menu specifically says that a 20 percent gratuity is added for parties of eight or more, they added that even though there were less than 8 of us! So their math is about as good as their service… I won’t be returning.

Stopped in for lunch, this was my third visit and I’ve tried the Blue Cheese burger and the Wisconsin Burger. I had my burger done medium and it was cooked slightly over but no complaints. The burger itself was thick and juicy and was good but could have used a little more seasoning for my own personal taste.
The burgers are large and filling and they have a tendency to fall apart while eating.
The steak fries were thick, fresh and hot. There is also a version of fries with chives that I have not tried.
Overall the burgers here are very good and I would recommend for the hearty appetite. There are daily specials and other menu items that I hope to experiment with in the future. This has become one of my go to lunch stops.

Went here on 4/13/24

Went here with a friend for lunch.
Now that the days are getting warmer- they have outdoor seating.
Inside is welcoming. Very clean. Laid out nicely.

Many options in the menu besides burgers. We both ordered bacon Cheeseburgers. They offer up 2 choices of fries.

The burgers were huge. Fresh and made to perfection. Everything was perfect. The person who waited on us did a great job for us. Rough us out beverages right away and the food came up pretty fast even tho the place was pretty busy.

I met the owner. Very nice lady. This is a privately owned establishment.
Love supporting local places.
There is more than one of these places. I think she said there are two others? But they are all privately owned.

Great place to take your family, friends or kids to. They have plenty of tv’s if u want to watch a game. They also have music videos playing in some of the tv’s.
Great atmosphere.
Very well maintained/clean.

Until the next review,
Steve-O, out!

Waited several minutes no menu when seated, when the waitress finally got to the table she was rude and said well I have other tables. We got up and stated we will go next door to El Jimador Service top shelf, seated
immediately with menus, waiter came to table and treated us like family. Food was excellent !

Met my better half for lunch and we both got a burger, fries & soda. I thought nothing of the bill until I just read a review that said they charge a 20% gratuity automatically. At the bottom of the bill there was a tip percentage breakdown so I went ahead and gave her $60.00. I'll pay attention next time. Not there, but somewhere else. Oops! Other than that, the burger was great.
