The restaurant is located in a great old Victorian house. The menu is very, very limited. Although there were only about 5 tables of diners during our meal the service was very disappointing. We had to ask several times for various things. The food was good but very over priced. This is not an inexpensive restaurant. I would not recommend... more

gilberts is without a doubt the finest,most exceptional restaurant in southwest wisc. The food is beyond expectation and would revival any cuisine found anywhere. We had the six course tasting with wine pairings. Each course was more exquisite than the next. The price was extremely resonable. You don't expect to find a restaurant of this caliber in a tourist town.... more

Everything is expensive and the smallest portions imaginable which is probably why the restaurant is for sale. The house is beautiful just go to the bar, have a drink and skip dinner. more

I finally tried Gilberts after I had heard a few things about it..some positive. The food was not at all what I expected. Very small portions and VERY VERY overpriced. The atmosphere was stuffy and the staff was disinterested. There are much better options in Lake Geneva. more

The most expensive restaurant we have ever eaten at in our lives, and we eat out alot. The presentation of the food was great, but the taste was just okay. We were the only ones in the restaurant on a Friday night, the only ones. Medusa's blows this restaurant away and is half the price. Very rarely would we say... more

OK, so the food was good… Not great. And contrary to some of the other comments, we found the service to be very good. The entire Victorian House is beyond beautiful. Regardless of your experience, take a walk through the entire house and enjoy!! The linens, protocol, and atmosphere suggests something Gilberts is NOT. A high-end gourmet experience. The food... more

This is an above average restaurant for the area. We live here, and find it difficult to eat good food out. Gilberts had exceptional service.. and I know the owners use local home grown food sources as much as possible.. The ambience is wonderful in an old victorian mansion. We even saw the chef running out to the front garden... more
