“George made me the best mango tango bomb and Long Island. Elijah cracked my miller lite so strong that it registered on the Richter scale. Elijah also let me try on his glasses for fashion purposes and hyped me up when it wasn't nessecary.“

“Went for the first time today for a doggo lunch date with muh fur baby. Wonderful staff and quick service. I noticed negative reviews complaining there was dogs, well no crap it’s the business model and there’s an actual picture of a dog on the door and logo. ANYWAYS price is a little steep but when I got my food holy cow it was delicious. And I love that they have dog friendly menu items available as well. The place is super clean for the amount of guests and animals that come through. Loved that the food pickup and service area is separate from dining. The only downfall was I did pay for pickles and there wasn’t any but I didn’t even notice it until I devoured the first half of my food. No big deal. I ordered the steak sandwich and strawberry limeade which I also love is made by hand with fresh fruit. My dog is now sleeping in a food coma as am I.“

“Amazing burger. I found this place by googling : best smash burger in milwaukee and this place was named left and right. Didn’t disappoint. I got a double and left way over full haha. Single next time! I believe this is truly 1 of if not the best smash burger around!“

“Best date spot for young professionals in MKE. Come for the atmosphere and stay for the even more ambiance. It's like if Einstein invented the Tunnel of Love attraction in all those classic films about yt people wearing sweaters and getting married at age 17 instead of nuclear destruction, but even more.“

“We had my mother in laws surprise 80th birthday at D'Vine! We had about 50 members of our family there and we were all so happy with the space and the service. Andrew is so kind and accommodating to work with! We will definitely go back the next time we're in need of a family gathering space!“

“My hubby did a pickup order and wow, we were impressed! Pickup fish fry isn’t usually something we do (thanks kidney stones for ruining our night) because it gets soggy but tonight we had to and it was really good. They packaged everything separately so the tartar and the slaw weren’t warm sitting in the container with the hot food, I had the combination platter and the package the baked cod in a separate soup container which was great. My husband had the blue gill and really enjoyed them as did our 5 year old. The food was all really delicious and I can’t wait to dine in next time. My husband said while he had a beer at the bar while he waited for our food all of the employees were friendly and pleasant.“

“Stopped on Sunday and enjoyed the best burger ever out on the patio!“

“This is like any neighborhood bar, with a lot of locals and other nice people! The bartenders are always friendly and have lots of tables for small groups to gather to have fun! They don't serve food though, only frozen pizza and salty snacks!

Parking: They have a parking lot and if it's full, there is also street parking!“

“Went in on a Thursday about noon. I wasn’t familiar with this establishment but to my surprise it was a great time. Pizza is huge and delicious for a great price. Bartender was “Jose” and he was amazing!!“

“this is Art’s house Art gives very few cares and will show you photos of him when he was ol he takes his time so don't go when youre in a hurry he gave me a flash light which doesn't relly work which is probably why he gave it to me theres a hole in the back deck which has to be seen to believed he loves jokes, the News, TMZ, and bar dice. I dig the characters here man on a calculator plugged into the wall, a three legged dog and a marathon-running doctor Art used to save newspapers for me but he doesn't do that anymore which is fine because i used to pick up the papers just to take them home to recycle i became the middle man for his newspaper disposal which became quite redundant art may offend or he might not again don’t ever go here when you’re in a hurry.“

“This was my visit and will not be my last! I really enjoyed myself! Miss Karaoke ❤️“

“Nice little-big neighborhood spot. Good bartenders, good machines, pool, darts, patio. Usually very delicious, and made from scratch, frozen drinks available. If that's your thing, do it, fantastic! Otherwise a wide liquor selection, great tap and bottle beers available, some seltzers, and ciders to be had as well. Good people, for the most part, and great security, for when it matters. Generally trouble free though.“

“Great people. Good drinks“

“Lou is funny, charming, and wonderful. The burgers were delicious, and enormous. The drinks are very reasonably priced, it's a great little, tiny, casual, local bar.
It was HOT out and there was a nice breeze flowing through, but if you are heat sensitive like me, you want to make sure to dress in cool, comfy clothing,or go on a cooler day.“

“Awesome place!! My uncle used to be part owner years ago and my mom worked there. Supposedly I was conceived on the bar“

“Great bands and beer selection“

“RE: the comment from Leann Nicholson!, what does it matter where the CCW class is held, unless you have other intentions of why you need a CCW permit stupid - - - -! Seriously, what does it matter if it was held right at the Police Dept. down the street??? Your comment is so f****** stupid, it is amazing you are allowed to consume alcohol, dont burn your lips on the pipe sweetheart!“

“Great place to watch soccer. They also have a nice beer selection.“

“The bar’s location is on my way to other places like Fluid and Walker’s pint. Back in 2021, I was being re-introduced to the Milwaukee LGBTQ+ community after living in Denver for the past 8 years. Before leaving, I volunteered at the AIDS Resource Center of Wisconsin, helped organize the gay softball World Series in 2009, and also volunteered at American Family Field for the LGBTQ+ softball league SSBL. I ran into this bar walking from Woodys to Walkers Pint. I walked in and was greeted by the bartender, Charlie. I recently parted ways with some of my gay “bar friends” and needed a change of scenery. Not knowing my story Charlie made conversation and made me feel welcome. In about 7-8 minutes meeting Charlie, he knew I happened to be gay. Since then I make it a point when friends visit for pride I take them to this place. All of the bartenders have always treated me with great respect and I enjoy the atmosphere. With me standing tall at 4’9” I’m happy to visit this inclusive place where I’ve happened to develop friendships with people who happen to be straight, oh and people who happen to be gay as well.“

“Very chill spot. I came alone to meet a friend and felt very safe. Southside vibe ….will be back !!!“

“We have driven by many times and have always wanted to stop in. We stopped by for a quick drink or two before going to dinner. There is plenty of outdoor space for those warmer days, but since it was chilly out we went inside. Eclectic, classic, hometown bar feel on the inside.

We ordered an old fashioned and one of the cocktails on tap, Hop Wop. Drinks were great and service was kind. We would love to stop by sometime in the summer and tray some more of the menu“

“great place to hang out. has been there for years“

“Most awesome little biker/local bar...Nice patio for summer and great service. 🍻Cheers🥃I should know I worked here for over 19 years till I moved away..Miss You All Very Much❤“

“Great place to grab a beer and listen to some music.“

“Came in on a Saturday around 1:30 Katy was working and was absolutely amazing. Made me the best bloody I've had all year then she even cut my pizza into squares AND triangles. Very accommodating and the service was beyond great. Thank you Katy“

“I’ve been going to this bar since I was 18 years old.“

“Amazing staff and manny is a great guy great food highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“OMG! Tied house is my new favorite place. The drinks are literally homemade and they taste amazing. The patio is one of the most beautiful in Milwaukee and don’t get me started on the service. Adam and Ava were so friendly and welcoming. Shiloh made the drinks this evening and I could’ve literally ordered the whole menu. Can’t wait to come back 😊“

“I've gone a few times now and I highly recommend. The bartenders are extremely friendly and I was also able to meet the owner Trixxie tonight and she is such a sweetheart. Good prices, good drinks and good people. My friends and I will definitely be back.“

“A neighborhood bar that tries and comes out on top. Other bars just exist but this place keeps it going.. Its got great food and Pool tables and more than just the water'd beer and rail shots behind the bar. Cider and seltser selection is a little different too“

“This is such a wonderful spot in Bayview. Really lovely drink menu, a super kind staff (that helped me with a card issue super professionally and it was a mistake on my end basically not theirs!) They do tons of local artist collaborations , a super cute spot for events! I really think this is a wonderful establishment with an amazing team.“

“The best. Pat is the guy. Popcorn is phenomenal.“
