I've seen plays in New York. This cast has the New York feel. WELL DONE.
The food it s always delicious and the entertainment spectacular! We just saw Grease and everyone did a fabulous job. We love looking at all the unique items in the gift shop.
The show NEWSIES was a very professional & fantastic show. Harmonies were exceptional, and the actors top notch. Altamiece Cooper didn't have a lot of on-stage time, but it was easy to tell that her presence was needed for the glue of the show. Well done Fireside. Well done.
Hard to match family experience. I've had some really great food items. The Shrimp & Scallops St. Jacques and Vegetable Medley are 2 of my favorite items.
The Little Mermaid was my favorite performance I have ever seen there !!
I love this place every time I go. The food is amazing. Dining room is so spacious and scenic. I love the themes to the drinks that go with the shows. Gift shops have so much stuff. The shows are phenomenal. I would highly recommend going.
Ok food (plenty) a d a charming play to get us in the Christmas spirit.
Great food and the show was awesome. Highly recommend
Venue, servicr.and food was very nice but the show was not up to Fireside's usual standard..felt like a high school play to me.
Always great food and always very good entertainment.
Positively wonderful. Dinner, lounge. And the show. What a great way to spend time at the Fireside !!
Good food! Easy drive, came for the first time and watched church basement ladies. I had such an awesome time I'm back to see the second episode.
Really nice place. First time going there. Saw the Christmas Story. I feel really bad for our server because I only tipped her on the bar tab and didnt realize the meal was prepaid I gave her a 50 percent tip on drinks but did not on the food. My mistake. We lived too far away to go back and tip her correctly. I dont even know her name. So if you pay in advance remember to tip on both the food and the drinks. I do feel terrible.
What a nice time we had on opening night May 31st for the sequel to the Church Basement Ladies. We arrived early to shop in the different rooms they have set up with all kinds of things to buy. You might want to shop after the play if you come for the afternoon play or run your purchases out to the car so you don't have to hang on to them. Our group of 4 had 2 birthday ladies and they received a gift bag with several goodies in them. We had our picture taken together. Before being seated for our meal we went to the lovely and comfortable lounge/bar. The ambience is very nice. The staff are very attentive and helpful. We went to the dining room and a waiter came to our table to answer our questions, take our drink orders and bring us our salad and bread basket. If you need gluten free foods they have things labeled for your convenience.
Our particular visit was for a buffet that was very nicely prepared. The variety was extensive. The dinner area is comfortable and well laid out and quiet. Every table seemed to be full of guests but it was so quiet. You didn't hear things clinking against each other or overhear other conversations. Extremely pleasant.
The play was a musical comedy and the actors were entertaining. My personal favorite was the actress that played Mavis. Our group laughed and cried throughout the performance. After the final scene and we were dismissed, we were offered hor'dorves. Unfortunately our group couldn't stay for that part but on another occasion we'll allow time for that too. The entire experience was great. I didn't see anything that was displeasing at all. Our group talked about going back for another event later this year and next. Fireside Dinner Theatre is 5* from beginning to end.
Very good time good food, service and entertainment
Always a joy to attend a show at The Fireside. Food is amazing. Talent is outstanding.
Great food, great entertainment second time here will definately return.
Quaint and always entertaining. Wait until just before christmas and buy all your ornaments while you wait for the show to start.
Both the dinner and the show (ELF) were amazing! Tonight was my first time coming to the fireside and I cannot wait to come back again!
Amazing place to go catch a musical! Have visited many times and will be back to visit again for sure
Everything was "perfect" we will be doing it again soon!!
Really fun place. I try to go at least once or twice a year.. the food is good too. I definitely recommend wholeheartedly!

Amazing food amazing service and amazing show, staff and cast of show extremely helpful and friendly and the shops had a beautiful selection
For being in a rural area this place is great. the shows are always entertaining and the food is good. We have even gone to get the fish fry on Friday's without seeing a show because the food is just that good.
Amazing food, service and loved the christmas play! Definitely going back for the hubby and my anniversary!
The dinner was marginal but the show was outstanding!
A-plus food, fantastic Christmas show! What a great day.
Dinner was excellent and our server was too! Had the steak and shrimp which was cooked properly and very tasty. The show was very good as well. A very enjoyable time!
I am a season ticket holder and find each time I go to be a new adventure. The staff are so fun and friendly, the food is very good and the shows a phenomenal!
Great show, fun little gift shops, desserts to die for!!!!
I was surprised at how small the stage was. It was all good but didn't meet my expectations or what I though it would be. Food was good.
Fun
Great food and drinks great service
Another great dinner and show! Menopause the Musical...so funny!!!
Very good show. Food average. The John Denver tribute was well done. Many great songs played. The Violinist was exceptional.
Show was great, food was super salty and processed buffet. I want to save the money and just go to the show.
Thanks fireside for good theater, food, and family entertainment in WI. Theater in the round won't replace NY but I enjoy the fireside theater and Newsies is so fun.
Attentive waitress, excellent menu & food presentation. Good drinks
Had a great time - from the people working there, to the food, to the performance. It was our first time going and would recommend to anyone! Awesome experience!
Love everything about this place. Good food great shows.
We had a wonderful experience at this quaint little theater. The actual show was fantastic, talented performers and well laid out after all theatre in the round is not for everybody! The dinner and drinks before hand were good but I should have called ahead for Vegetarian. I did not however care for the gift shops. Very midwestern with cute things but nothing that actually related to theater or the show that was playing which was disappointing
Portions for the Friday fish fry have gotten smaller and smaller and the price stays the same.
Always a wonderful experience at the Fireside Theater. Great meal and show.
Show was wonderful...atmosphere was great as was the food
