Twisted Fire

The venue was really nice. Plenty of seating and different areas like regular dining room, bar, and kitchen views to choose when making a reservation.Our booth had charger ports, which is nice for phone junkies.We made a reservation and were promptly seated and greeted. They had special seasonal menu items and then a wide range of everyday options.The braised short rib mac was excellent, it had a white cheddar cheese sauce.

Came here on a whim on New Year's Day and it did not disappoint! They seemed busy and potentially understaffed, but we were very well taken care of. The food was all excellent!! The pizza crust had a sweet taste to it which I found to be uniquely delicious and the arancini balls were also great and different. A yummy place to try in downtown Oconomowoc.

Love it here (though it's always a little too chilly...). We always start with the cheese curds, and you can be sure there's a special that will pique your interest. Weirdly enough, we haven't tried the flatbreads, but have enjoyed burgers and handmade pasta enough to be sure it won't disappoint. The service is always friendly, and it's pretty easy to snag a table during the week.

Twisted Fire is one of our favorite restaurants in Downtown Oconomowoc! We have been here a number of times over the year and we are never disappointed! The atmosphere is comfortable and relaxed whether you choose to sit inside, at the bar, at the chef's table, or outside on the patio. The service is the only thing I can say they could improve on. The wait staff is is not incredibly attentive. We ran out of water and drinks multiple times. At the end of our meal, we had to chase someone down to pay the bill! This time we were there for my son's 12th birthday and they offered him a free dessert. This wasn't your average, one scoop of ice cream free dessert, he was able to pick anything off of the menu. The food...for apps we ordered breadsticks, cheese curbs, and truffle fries. All pretty simple apps and they were delicious. The breading on the cheese curds was a little heavy - I probably would not order those again. I had the steak and mushroom risotto which was to die for. I love risotto and have found that it cane often times be disappointing, but Twisted Fire got it right! My son ordered the tenderloin and he reported that it was really good and has continued to ask to go back!

Super attentive staff, mostly very friendly. Our server hustled all evening. The manager came and checked on us. Very loud rooms and a little crowded, but it seems to be a popular place. We ordered a pizza which had excellent quality ingredients and was perfectly cooked. Fries were good but unremarkable. Alfredo spinach mushroom pasta was very good; the Alfredo sauce was thin but flavorful. Finally, one of us had seafood pasta. It was ok. There were large shrimp, 2 scallops and crab throughout. The homemade spaghetti was good, not great. The sauce was pretty bland. I was surprised by the cilantro garnish, but at least it added some flavor. The dish needed a good dash of red pepper or more garlic or something to make it a little less bland. Next time we will try the house burger, as it looked amazing.

This was probably the worst $60 I've ever spend at a restaurant. I ordered the truffle fries, the caprese chicken pasta and lasagna. Let me tell you the fries were absolutely disgusting, soggy cold and the cheese had all accumulated together. Nothing made it any different than some fries with Parmesan on it. The chicken pasta was also terrible. The pasta was dense and heavy spirals. The chicken was literally just a chicken breast no seasoning just white and boiled. Only thing that was decent was the lasagna. If I would have gotten two of those this review would have been better. The place was packed when I picked up my order in the pouring rain so others must like it but I won't be coming back. What a shame and waste of money...

Anthony was a great server! Very nice, timing of coming to the table was perfect! Food and drinks were refreshing! We stayed outside which was nice on a nice day but a little close to the street

This is one of my favorite restaurants in Lake Country. We love to sit at the bar and visit with Gerald. I believe a good restaurant has few deep fried appetizers. This menu is truly thoughtful, inspired and healthy!

Delicious food. Our first time but won't be the last. I had steak. Perfectly cooked and hard great flavor. Saginaki was awesome. Husband had spaghetti, said the meatballs were the best he ever had. Can't wait to go back

Highly recommended!What a fabulous place! The food was so amazing, the staff was very attentive and friendly. We had a wonderful pizza and caeser salad. The owner came to our table to be sure we were having a good time, and brought us a free dessert -the best creme brulee I've ever had! Even the ither patrons were lovely. We're only in town two more nights but we plan to go back before we leave -it's that good!
