For the last 18 years, Joe Hennes and his wife Ellen have been building a family-oriented meeting place for friends to gather at Sloppy Joe's Saloon and Spoon in Hubertus. In December 2020, they purchased this property, and brought the philosophy of food, fun, and laughter from Washington County to Lake Country. They renamed the property Smoke on the Water to reflect the revamped menu which includes a large selection of home-smoked meat items. Open jams, live music, karaoke and fun events are already a regular part of the experience.And after a decade of the lower level sitting vacant, they just launched "Below Deck," a brand new state of the art banquet facility and live music venue that accommodates about 250 people.Whether arriving by land or sea, you'll enjoy Lake Country's best lake-vibe barbecue, cocktails, live music & friends.Experience Smoke on the Water - where strangers become friends, and friends become family.

This was my first time here and I was very impressed. The food and drink menus contained a lot of options and I wanted to try so many. I feel the prices are a little on the high side (especially the drinks). The dining rooms were also very loud, I hope something can be done to deaden the sound level a little bit. I will certainly come back again and try some more of the interesting items I saw on the menus.

Had a lovely Easter dinner as a family last night. The service and quality of food had the feel of a fancy restaurant without the steep price point I would expect for a meal of this nature. It was a wonderful meal.
