Hot Rocks

Took my husband here for Valentines Day. This was way better than expected. So much food. It was delicious .

Came back here summer. Had same choices as a tradition in wisc dell for us, everything was how we remembered. Good. Second day we went to dine in, there were 7people in our group, we split checks, the restaurant put 18% as a Large group gratuity on the bill. I thought the server should have mentioned that beforehand as "There is going to be 18% gratuity added to your bills , but if you think I do a great job serving you, additional tips are appreciated or something like that." The foods here is not low costing, so as if you look past that part and look at the final cost and tip additionally as you usually would on top of it, the tip part can accumulate and become big enough for u not to want to come back, which happened to the half of our party. That is just something happened differently this time.

Excelent service by Dimitri.However, the food was a huge letdown: the protein that comes on the Rock is decently seasoned but the seasoning burns instantly. The sides are atrocious (had steamed baby carrots that tasted how moth balls smell and broccoli that fall apart upon touching it! The sauces that come with the protein are so sweet you cannot taste anything after.The experience and the idea was good but there is so much smoke we could barely breathe and other guest around us kept coughing due to the smoke.

Food was good. Service great. Ambience nice. It's a little pricy but We went for the experience.

The place was gorgeous! Everywhere you looked gave vacation beach vibes. I went to hot rock with my family which consists of 3 kids ages 13 and younger. The service was amazingly fast and our food came at record speeds. There was a small tiki with buttons on the top that you could use to call your waitress over whenever you wanted. Or if you needed the check there was a separate button for that. The food was served on a hot lava rock. The youngest in our group was 7 years old but even she was able to cook her own steak. The waiters gave simple instruction on to how to cook your steak and if you wished for a more or less well done steak how to reach your desired meal. Everyone loved their food and we loved trying the new experience of making your own steak. The people who served us were beyond kind and were a huge part in making our visit so fabulous. For desert we were at first worried that it would not be enough for all five of us to enjoy but they gave us one that was more than plenty for us all. My family is head over heels for hot rock and I would recommend it for anyone looking for a fun place to eat in the dells.

We've driven by Hot Rocks a few times over the years but never tried it until last evening. We were seated right away, our waiter explained how it worked and gave us ample time to review the menu. I ordered the top sirloin with garlic mashed and carrots, my husband got the filet medallions with wild rice and broccoli and my daughter got Mac n cheese with fries. The food came out very quickly and the steaks were starting to cook on the rock. We decided to cut them and cook little pieces at a time so it was hot with every bite which was perfect. The steaks were seasoned perfectly and was good quality meat. We enjoyed everything a lot. We ordered the beniets with Nutella mousse for dessert and they were amazing. Will definitely come back again.

Food was yummy. The , service was quick, efficient and friendly. Ambiance was fun and clean. I'm so glad we made time for this!

I'm avid listener to talk radio and I recently heard about this restaurant on WRMN 1410AM - Elgin, Illinois. So we drove up from Chicago, to spend Columbus Day at the Dells and check out the fine dining situation. This is a wonderful eating experience, the food sizzles on a hot rock plate. We had the New York Strip Steak plus the seafood platter. Our appetizers were fried calamari and shrimp cocktails. Great food, good service, very clean place and great service by the staff. Highly recommended. Five stars...

We came here on a Saturday night with a large party and they were very accommodating. The experience and our server was great.

The service was fine, nothing exceptional. You call the server by pressing a button. That was the only time we saw our guy. The meat is decent but burns due to seasoning. You also have to cut up your meat to really cook it. Nothing is keeping the heat in. The carrots were good, the garlic mashed potatoes were funny. Overall I would pass. We will never be back.
