The relish tray you get with some meals is the bomb. Food was great. Make sure to make reservations though! Place has a nice German feel to it. Definitely a must stop.

The service was friendly, knowledgeable and effecient. We tried the shrimp and chicken breast with cheese & mushrooms. Both were delicious! So glad we were treated to the Elias Inn!

You get a lot for what you pay for. You get 3 extra sides prior to your main course. Choosing from their soup of the day or cottage cheese, a salad or juice, and a potatoe to go with your main dish. Although this place doesn't have many options if you are vegetarian, only have pasta or a small salad and maybe the soup if it doesnt contain meat. Overall, the atmosphere was calm, it was a busy place for dinner, but all the meals looked delicious.

The Elias Inn servers the BEST fish fry!!! They don't take reservations on Friday nights. The wait is usually an hour or more. I promise, it is worth the wait!!

CALL ahead for reservations. Even though they have a great bar, seating is tight and no amount of delicious old fashions will change that. Seating is a bit tight but oh my the authenticity of a German fish fry is amazing! You won't be sorry you came. Wait staff are kind and on top of things.

Friday closed menu, fish fri and broil, roasted chicken, all you can eat. Lazey Susan of German and Am. Potatoe salad, baked beans, rye bread, slaw, tartar sauce. All you can eat. Jim had a old fashioned with fruit. Chicken well done. Very busy. Families. Start serving at 4.00 pm get there at 3.30 if you don't want a 40 minute wait. No reservations taken on Friday. Saturday night is prime rib night and get reservations. Wed. And Wednesday and Thursday night is good Steak night. Bar is busy and old. This is for sale. Built in 1880s. After my Grandma was born and Abraham Lincoln died. Very pretty inside and historic. Stain glass windows. Lovely. Hunt for this, it's unusual and homemade food. Neighborhood. Mary N.

First time visit and we had a warm welcome on a cold winters night! Loved the rotating relish plus extras dish. Everyone tried something different as main course and no one was disappointed. Korissa was our server and was wonderful.

This is another hidden gem, best fish fry for miles around. On Friday's they have a closed menu. All you can eat fish baked and fried plus chicken. And of course all the typical sides. The bar area is a pretty typical Wisconsin bar. But the dining room has the feel of an old world German restaurant.. good food and good atmosphere... On Friday's there is a wait, but for good reason.

If you are looking for a small cozy supper club Elias Inn is your place to go! One of the best Friday fish frys in the area. Prepare for a lengthy wait if you arrive after 5pm. There is a small bar area to have a drink while you wait. If you are looking for Saturday night prime rib specials make sure you have reservations...you will not be disappointed!

Elias Inn Watertown, WI - this was a fun first visit. Ron Faiola's "Wisconsin Supper Clubs" brought us in. We started at the bar, enjoying a couple Wisconsin classics - Brandy Old Fashioneds while learning a little history of the place from the bartender. The evenings host prepared our table and escorted us into the eclectic dining room where our server, was great - she signed our book and informed us she'd been serving at Elias Inn over 20 years and loved it - and it showed, she took great care of us. "She" had the scallops and I had the Rib - our entrees and sides were all delicious - this was a really fun visit. We're looking forward to visiting Elias Inn again when we get that direction. Stop in and have cocktail, stay for dinner - I know you'll be glad you took time to experience Elias Inn in Watertown, WI

Good food quality, great service. It would have had been nice to have had a veggie option and I would have thought a place of this stature would have had crumbled blue cheese. Very good experience overall.
