Premier Prime Rib Restaurant of Southeastern Wisconsin. Albert Kopulos and Gigi Falbo opened the Corner House Supper Club on August 14th, 1945. Albert ran the Corner House until his passing on February 11th 2001. At that time his son's John and George continued to run the Corner House for about 17 years. After numerous attempts to purchase the Corner House over a 20 year period, in October 2017 the Kopulos brothers called me and said they were ready to retire. After many months of negotiating we closed the deal on March 28th, 2018. And I am very proud to say I am the new owner of a Racine staple. My intention is very simple: to carry on the tradition of Racine finest and only Supper Club. With the Corner House staff/team already in place, we thrive to improve on every dinning experience.So whether you're a new or long time patron of the Corner House or just passing through on business, we will treat you with the highest standards.

The restaurant is outstanding and beautiful. The food is outstanding. The service was a little slow at first, especially for a Monday night (but it was packed, on a Monday night!) And the line cook salting the crispy potatoes was waaaaay too heavy handed. I politely and not even remotely annoyed mentioned it to the server and they comped both the potatoes and one of our desserts, which was totally unnecessary and unexpected. We would come back again and again. In fact this is my second trip!

Took my wife here for her birthday. The service was superb, and my 8 oz filet was done to perfection. My wife’s Thai lettuce wraps were a large portion that were excellent.
