Linda’s

Fabulous dinner! Fabulous service from a veteran fine dining waiter. Interior is elegant old world charm from another era with paintings from the Lake Geneva artist Mancuso adorning the walls.
We ordered a Filet and a New York, two drinks, and a dessert were $ 107. Well worth it. Meal included soup or salad and a generous potato and veggie portion. I had to bring some of mine home. Also included a fresh baked bread roll. All in all, I’d say this experience surpasses any I’ve had at Wilmot Stage Stop, which is about a block and a half away from Linda’s.

Open the door to Linda’s in Wilmot, WI and step back into Mayberry. Even if you don’t know anybody, you will in a few minutes. Linda makes everything fresh, from scratch. She closes after lunch, so get there for breakfast or one of her fabulous daily lunch specials. She makes her own soups. My favorite is her Pumpkin soup. Absolutely the best! You can buy a jar to take home. If you bring the jar back, you get your «deposit» back on the jar, just like the old days when kids would return pop bottles to the store, get a few pennies and head to the candy store.
She makes her own cookies, muffins, etc.
The décor is so Mayberry, you swear Andy and Barney are going to walk in any minute. Quilts on the wall, little handmade items for sale, your hot tea comes in your own special teapot. No two seem to be the same.
There is an ATM where you can get $ 40 if you forget that Linda only takes cash. It is in the back.
This place is a slice of history with fantastic food that can’t be beat, low prices, friendly people and the locals chat it up with you like you have been there all your life.
