I'm surprised there aren't more reviews. We did the lunch (on Lake Monona) and enjoyed it. A 2 hour cruise, with a lunch buffet and cocktail service (soda and water are free, alcohol you pay for). Food (including dessert) was prepared at either the Mariner's Inn or Naut-i-gal, so it was good. Some people said the Lake Mendota cruises are better; I could see that as Mendota is bigger--we finished Monona in an hour or less, and just kind of went back around. You'll need some cash to tip the cocktail servers. I think it was priced fairly overall.
