  • Let me start by saying that I really want Lake Edge Seafood to succeed. Since the announcement of their opening, I've watched their online reviews with mixed results, and finally decided to give them a try yesterday (February 2018) for lunch with a friend, figuring they had (hopefully) worked the bugs out of their service. The decor is tastefully nautical and the location is great. Upon walking up to the ordering area, we were greeted by a gentleman (owner? chef?) who asked us if we had any questions about the menu. My friend asked whether the Shrimp Skewer ($13.95) was grilled or fried. He was told he could order it either way. Upon ordering, about 60 seconds later, he was told by the counter person that the shrimp could only be fried. Apparently, the employee didn't know that grilling was an option. When pressed, the other folks behind the counter corrected him. So much for having the "bugs" worked out. This place is expensive. Big City expensive. NYC expensive. Not really the sort of lunch prices one would expect to find on Madison's east side. The Shrimp Skewer, at $13.95, consists of four (4) modest-sized (26/30) shrimp, on a few greens, drizzled with sauce, no sides. I had the fish tacos with tilapia; (3) flour tortillas filled with fried tilapia topped with pickled onion and a mango chutney. Substituting a bowl of clam chowder in place of a side, plus a soft drink, my meal clocked in at $21.00 sans gratuity. Food was good, but not worth these prices. When greeted by an employee asking us how we were enjoying our meal, my friend - an exceptionally gracious human being - very quietly and tactfully expressed his concern over the price of his four shrimp. The female employee appeared somewhat confused, shrugged her shoulders, said nothing, and walked away. That pretty much sums up our experience - at least with dining in - at Lake Edge Seafood. We, too, shrugged our shoulders and walked away. I will return to check out their fresh seafood counter offerings, which looked wonderful, at some point in the future, as I am hoping it serves as a nice alternative to driving to Empire or St. Pauls in Milwaukee for fresh seafood. But as far as Lake Edge's in-house dining goes, don't expect to be "wowed." Take a big wallet, or you will leave hungry and unimpressed.
