The public-review picture
Baraboo Supper Club holds a 4.3-star Google rating from 186 reviews, a solid result for a moderately priced restaurant with a special-occasion lean. The available reviews describe a polished, Wisconsin-inspired supper club inside Boise’s Renegade Hotel, with cocktails, steaks and full multi-course dinners at the center of the experience.
The strongest pattern is hospitality. Anniversary and Valentine’s Day diners report attentive, friendly service, prompt seating and staff who helped navigate both the food and drink menus. One couple celebrating a wedding anniversary felt recognized by the full team rather than only their server. That makes Baraboo look particularly well suited to date nights and celebrations where service matters as much as the meal.
Wisconsin references and cocktails
The concept appears to resonate most with guests who recognize its Wisconsin roots. One reviewer who grew up in the state appreciated the Milwaukee references and specifically praised a Third Ward cocktail for capturing the character of its namesake neighborhood. A lavender-blueberry seltzer served as a gin and tonic also made a favorable impression.
Cocktails are not uniformly praised, however. Another diner loved the Corpse Reviver but regretted being steered toward a standard martini instead of a signature drink. Based on that contrast, Baraboo’s more distinctive cocktails may be the better way to engage with the restaurant’s identity.
The setting adds to the sense of occasion. Reviewers describe the Renegade Hotel as stylish and note the restaurant’s convenient Grove Street location. Reservations appear sensible for a planned evening, even though one early-arriving party reported being seated almost immediately for a 5:30 p.m. Wednesday booking.
Food, value and consistency
Public feedback suggests that the main components of the entrées can be a strength. Steak was part of one reviewer’s positive progression through appetizers, drinks and dessert, while another guest called the main portion of an entrée great. The weaker notes concern accompaniments: an upgraded baked potato was described as hard and dry, and Brussels sprouts were also criticized for dryness. Those reports do not erase the broader praise, but they indicate some inconsistency beyond the centerpiece of the plate.
Value depends on the format and the amount ordered. One full evening with appetizers, cocktails, steak and dessert reached roughly $100 per person. Another reviewer found a limited anniversary prix fixe menu to be a strong deal at the time, though special menus and promotional pricing should not be assumed to remain available. The moderate price label therefore needs context: a streamlined meal may fit it, while drinks and multiple courses can push the total higher.
Editorial verdict
Baraboo Supper Club is a promising Boise choice for diners drawn to Wisconsin supper-club cues, characterful cocktails and celebration-ready service. Its 4.3 rating reflects a generally favorable response, especially around hospitality and atmosphere. The main reservation is kitchen consistency, with a few sides falling well short of the entrées they accompanied. For the clearest version of the experience, prioritize a signature cocktail, reserve ahead for an occasion and ask the staff about the most reliable accompaniments.
