“We were very impressed with our guide Keirsten.She was over the top with our SPICY group. Shakers accompanied our wounded leg toury so she could seek out ghosts with us. Sampling a few amazing menu items and cocktails prior to walk about. Shakers hands down made the best Old Fashions we had on our trip to the mid-west.Thank you for letting us make memories at Shaker’s 10/10”

“Amazing, fresh, home-made Italian, the way it's supposed to be!”
“My honey had nothing but great things to say about this place, so I knew I had to come and try it for myself! 🥰🍽 I’m so glad I did because the service was truly outstanding from start to finish. Everyone was welcoming, attentive, and made the whole experience feel special. 😊 The food was absolutely delicious, and honestly, I was a little sad when I finished my meal because I wanted more! 😂😋 I’ll definitely be stopping by again the next time I’m in the area. Can’t wait for another visit! ❤🙌”
“Fried zucchini and steaks are very good so is the spaghetti very friendly people”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ What an incredible dining experience! From the moment we walked in, everything was exceptional. The wine selection was fantastic, and every dish we ordered exceeded our expectations. The eggplant appetizer was absolutely fabulous, and my stuffed filet was one of the best meals I've had in a long time. What impressed me most was that the kitchen customized my entrée on a busy Saturday night—something you rarely see, even at high-end restaurants. My best friend ordered the Frutti di Mare, and it was outstanding as well. The portion sizes were very generous, and we both left completely satisfied. What truly sets Safina apart is the ownership and service. Both owners came to our table multiple times throughout the evening to make sure everything was perfect. They were even helping bus tables and assisting the staff. That level of hands-on hospitality is something you simply don't see very often, even at many five-star restaurants. The food, service, atmosphere, and attention to detail were all top-notch. Safina has earned loyal customers in us, and we can't wait to come back! Bonus: Sal is awesome!!!!”

“What a great find. Nice place, great energy. The service from hostess, bartender, waiter, and food runner was prompt, polite, and sincere. Food was excellent. The queso was flavorful, melty, and delicious paired with the lovely bread, and assortment of fruits. The empanadas were the obvious stars of the show - soft billowy outer shells that had a nice bite, filled with delicious stuffings. Dessert was great as well, opting for that sinful cookie bar with ice cream.”
“Listening to Weezer along side the train tracks under a highway overpass. This is a brewery located in the old industrial area of Milwaukee. The menu includes snacks and several types of beer. A couple fruited sours, a tasty and malty oktoberfest and a bunch of ales. Solid selections, if not remarkable, everything a solid B. Disclaimer, this is a brewery in the Wisconsinest city, there will likely be children, if not infants present. Of this'll twist your panties, you should avoid. Lots and lots of seating, though half of it is outside.”
“We were up in Milwaukee for the weekend for a baseball tournament and my family wanted Indian food for dinner. Wife did a research and found this place (Antique Indian Restaurant). It’s a “Dhaba style” restaurant with great food. My son had samosa (anppatizer) and we all had Lassi. Our main meals were… “Butter Chicken, Chicken Tikka, Spicy Goat Curry and Goat Bryani”. Definitely, great food, good service and not as pricey as some of the other Indian restaurants. Would stop by again if we happen to be around the area. AG”
“Super friendly staff. VERY quick order to food on the table time. Had the pork belly Benny and the carnitas con huevos and both were fresh and delicious. The hash browns (added onions) were some of the best I’ve ever had. Got an order of the French toast with Caramel and candied pecans and that was also very good. Heard they feed seniors for free on Wednesday so going to send my parents over there next week! Any place that treats seniors that was is worth patronizing. We’ll definitely be back!”
“Staff is always friendly and welcoming. Our meals are always delicious no matter what we select, burgers, fish, brunch. Great selection of options. Love the outdoor patio.”
“The food and atmosphere were absolutely amazing! Our server, Victor was fabulous! Super helpful and kind. Highly recommend! We will be back. Thank you!”

“We ordered Saturday for the 1st time. My gyro was so delicious, the sauce was great and the portion was good. I did ordered an extra pita and extra meat so I could have lunch during the week. My husband had a cheeseburger with bacon, his only complaint was the bacon was soggy but he LOVED the burger and really loved the fries. it's very rare fries come delivered and are crispy!! Definately will be ordering again!”
“I was nervous about trying a protein bowl from a vending machine but was surprisingly impressed with the taste and freshness. It will now be my go-to when I’m in airports and need something delicious and healthy. My choice was the high protein chicken shawarma bowl and it was so good my 5 year old even loved it.”
“Came here with my Mom, Older brother, and Aunt, who we had picked up from the airport and decided to come to Denny’s. It was at night too, so we really enjoyed the night atmosphere as well as us eating our food indoors. The staff was pretty nice, funny, cool. Will definitely be coming back👍🏼😊”
“Everyone was very initiative to my needs and care and get me together on a quick road to recovery. Stay that normally has people in the hospital for weeks only lasted four days for Me. I’m home and still recovering”

“First time visiting 27th Steak & Potato! Food was super fresh and delicious. I had the chicken philly cheesesteak, fries and frozen strawberry pineapple lemonade. Took home a piece lotus cookie bottom cheesecake, fire! 🔥 Establishment was clean, counter service was super friendly and provided some good recommendations. Will definitely be back for a steak in the near future!”
“My go to is usually a almond chai or Jolly Green Jenny, a single maple-syrup laced crepe and a side of tofu scramble. Together they satisfy all my sweet salty and savory cravings with a comforting hot beverage. It’s always civilized in there, everyone keeping their voices to a mellow decibel and the greenery all over in the living walls is over the top beautiful. In the summertime it’s gorgeous outside. Michael and his staff are always hospitable and polite and you feel like they’re family taking care of you. It’s a terrific little gem tucked away in a sweet spot. Go there for healthy ish eats but mostly go because it feeds your soul.”
“Was never to Oscars before. I didn't expect that I'd be eating the greatest burger I've had in my Life. Meat was thick and juicy. Bun was clean and soft. Onion rings were hot with a firm dense crust. My friend and I were almost in disbelief. Staff was incredibly polite. Clientele, (place was packed), were well-mannered. I'll definitely be back. 10/10”
“Leon’s Frozen Custard is an absolute must-visit! 🍦😍 I honestly think this is some of the best frozen custard I’ve ever tasted. This classic drive-in has been around since 1942 and still serves incredibly rich, smooth, and creamy custard, along with delicious sundaes and floats. 🍨🥤 They also have burgers, hot dogs, and fries if you’re looking for something savory. 🍔🍟 The vintage atmosphere makes it feel like stepping back in time, which adds so much charm to the experience. Service was quick, friendly, and courteous. Definitely a memorable stop and a place I’d happily visit again! ❤🙌”
“Our favorite local restaurant. Unique and delicious menu with the best brunch!”
“It was a nice escape from the outside world! Really makes me feel like I time traveled to the past! Great food, amazing decor, will be coming back!!”
Drive-Thru Restaurants
“Some of the best food I’ve ever had, I’ve had at Birch. I try to visit as often as I can. I usually go for the steak or pork chop. Both are cooked to perfection. Also, the fennel salad, crunchy farm vegetables, and anything involving tomatoes is recommended.”
“The food on today was good except the dressing It was very dry; it was inedible. My one complaint about this restaurant is they never get your order right. And the female cashier this evening around 4 pm 022625 was unfriendly; when I told her that I didn’t get my muffin , soda and extra piece of fish. Bad customer service makes me not want to eat the food.”
“Frequent visitor to Milwaukee but the first time here, recommended by my sister. Everyone’s dish in my party was delicious, and while it has a great diner vibe it is a great foodie find. Coffee and Bloody Mary also on point. And not too long of a wait for Sunday brunch.”
“I love Palaminos. The ambience is an old pub eatery. Many people eat at the bar, but there is ample seating for groups. The fish fry is the best in the city! There are 3 hearty pieces of cod. You will not go away hungry. The staff is great! definitely put it on your list!”
“The guy who rang me up (Soloma) was very friendly. It was my first time there and recommended me a few things. Staff treated me like family and hooked me up. Gave me all the sauces. Food was real fresh, cooked upon ordering. Chicken drums and thighs were juicy. Good lemon pepper seasoning. Would come back if in the area.”
“My work had a food truck day and it was my 1st time trying Fatty Patty. They did not disappoint. I ordered the Chicken Filet sandwich and it was the BEST Chicken sandwich that I have had. The chicken was hand breaded and was so moist. Also got their Cheese Curds and they were delicious. Service was quick and the workers were very friendly. Also kudos to them working in their trucks when the temps were around 90. They did an amazing job. Would definitely recommend them for your event and I will try them again in the future.”
“My food was absolutely delicious. I went for brunch and ordered the El Mexicano Bowl. I highly recommend this place. It’s nice to see a great restaurant finally take over the old Trocadero building.”
“Some of the best food I’ve ever had, I’ve had at Birch. I try to visit as often as I can. I usually go for the steak or pork chop. Both are cooked to perfection. Also, the fennel salad, crunchy farm vegetables, and anything involving tomatoes is recommended.”

“We had an awesome experience last night! Food was some of the best we’ve ever had, cocktails were fabulous and the service was outstanding! Ali our waitress, was on point throughout the entire evening. I would highly recommend and can’t wait to go back again!! Thank you for making my birthday dinner so lovely and delicious 😋 💯🤩”
“Incredible restaurant for an exquisite dining experience. I loved my “Day in the Kitchen” with the Sanford team. The 7 course surprise tasting menu was incredible, and they seemed to incorporate specific foods that we focused during my kitchen experience. The wine pairings were great, and every staff member was kind and thoughtful. Couldn’t recommend more!”
“Came here for my birthday. I consider myself pretty well traveled in the Milwaukee food scene, but had never been to Cavas. I could not have been more impressed! Every course was amazing and truly flavorful. Service was amazing. My wife and I can’t wait to return.”
“My friend and I were actually diverted from Mr. Bs due to a facility issue. We are not exactly French Restaurant kind of guys (we had lots of questions on the menu!!). Nevertheless, we had an AMAZING experience!!! George was a fantastic server. Will definitely visit again. Beautiful restaurant.”
“Steak and scallops were exceptional. My server was very attentive and always smiling. The flow and timing of service and food was very good. A little in the pricey side but I’d rather spend a little more for great food than spend less and be disappointed. I was by myself and ate near the bar and there were three loud drunk guys there that could have used some redirection. Other than that, a near perfect evening.”
“We visit Milwaukee each summer and search out new places to eat. Luckily, we chose The Conroy this time. We were a few minutes early and sat for a few minutes at the bar with a really good jazz trio as background. The atmosphere of the place and the music were really fun. Ethan served us some cool cocktails and wowed us with his pour-skills and cocktail history. After drinks we were seated with a super knowledgeable and attentive server, Kayla. Her recommendations were spot-on and we enjoyed having her around wherever we needed anything. She was the best and made the evening very special. O yeah, and the food was fantastic. The Maple glazed salmon, Sea bass, brussel sprouts and beet salad were all the best we've ever had. All around , a 10 out of 10.”
“we had a wonderful dining experience at High Stakes and it was outstanding and the food and drinks were excellent. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted warmly, to the great bartenders and our server and her team were wonderful, never missing a beat or detail.. We tried a few different dishes and each one was delicious. My Ribeye was the best I ever had and my wife had the scrumptious Scallops. It has an amazing interior and lovely atmosphere. making us feel like we were in a NY supper club. Paul Bartolotta has given us another great Bartolotta restaurant and this may be their best yet.
We also loved that Paul made his way around the room, stopping at tables to talk and making guests feel welcome. It's such a nice touch.
This elevated dining experience reminds me of the old style of dining, which we have always enjoyed and missed here in Milw. What a great addition to the Milwaukee restaurant scene.
BTW, Make sure you leave room for dessert! We especially loved the chocolate tarte. We can't wait to return!”
“This is the best hot pot I've had so far and the menu has a variety. The bowl portion is awesome and the both taste great. I will be coming back here”

“Excellent recent experience. We visited on a Thursday afternoon. That made our tour group very small, just two adults. Very welcoming greetings with the staff. The best part is the presentation of the tour. If you enjoy great presentations of history, neat tidbits you might not get from videos or books, this is definitely for you. Looking forward to return visits with friends and family. Highly recommend.”
“We visited for the first time today and this is an amazing place!! Our server Chad was amazing and the food was absolutely delicious!!! I was skeptical because we came close to closing time but the food came out fast looking picture perfect and tasted out of this world!! Chad made us welcome didn’t rush us at all and was on top of it!! Definitely a MUST TRY SPOT!! We will be back for sure!!”
“We had a blast .. found Holler House through Google search of oldest bars in Milwaukee. The owners Tom and Cathy are amazing and the locals made us feel at home! We have so many pictures and so much fun! Be sure to do a shotski! These Texans had a blast!”
“Just tried this place today. An all I can say it such a wonderful breakfast. My wife has a gluten allergy. They are very knowledgeable, know what there doing. An make your experience the best it can be. Gluten free French toast with in house made gluten free bread. It was delicious. Made the wife cry happy tears knowing she could feel normal. Thank you Abby made the experience all the more better. Thank you for such a wonderful time.”
“Been going to Broken Bat since they moved to their new location on 1st and Pittsburgh. I absolutely recommend this place and its entirety and wish I lived closer. Whether it’s wiffle ball, darts, or kicking back and enjoying a Beach Ball (my personal favorite Pineapple Milkshake IPA) no brewery comes close to offering the atmosphere of Broken Bat. But what really makes Broken Bat so special especially to the city of Milwaukee is they care about the people and the surrounding community. They aren’t here to just make another craft beer and take your dollar. If you’ve ever met the owner Tim you’ll understand what I’m saying. So… Whether you’re in the area or at a local store, grab a beer made by Broken Bat Brewing Company. You’re doing yourself a favor and supporting an establishment that deserves it. PS- if you’re a Marquette fan (or not) -> Find the beer “Ring Out Ahoya” and crack it open during Marquettes deep run this year”
“Coffee shop/bar - happing place. Smell of Coffee is wonderful, lively conversation, bright windows (look like doors open during summer), but back area is darker with a more intimate feeling. Sampled several beers and enjoyed all of them, especially the Bruv - it tastes just like an ambrosia salad (I know, not really beer like, but perfect for dessert). Staff was all very friendly.”
“We had an awesome experience last night! Food was some of the best we’ve ever had, cocktails were fabulous and the service was outstanding! Ali our waitress, was on point throughout the entire evening. I would highly recommend and can’t wait to go back again!! Thank you for making my birthday dinner so lovely and delicious 😋 💯🤩”
“Chef Mike and Jim just treated a huge crowd of cancer patients and their caregivers. The short ribs were out of this world, fall off the bone. it was so generous and much appreciated.”
“What an incredible experience at The Capital Grille. From the moment we walked through the door, I could tell this was going to be a special evening. The staff was absolutely superb—friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. They made us feel like valued guests throughout the entire meal.
The ambiance was beautiful and truly upscale, but still comfortable enough to relax and enjoy the evening. Every detail, from the atmosphere to the service, felt thoughtfully done.
And then there was the food. From the appetizers to the entrées, including the steaks, everything was beautifully prepared and absolutely delicious. Each course felt like it was prepared with care, and the presentation was just as impressive as the flavors. Dessert was the perfect way to finish an already exceptional meal.
I don't often leave a restaurant feeling like the entire experience—from the service to the food to the atmosphere—was this well done. The Capital Grille gave us a truly memorable evening, and I would happily return again. Highly recommended!”
“Food is always fresh and cooked with great flavors and thought!”
“Wife and I went for a long walk along the east side then decided to look for a sushi restaurant. Found this place close by. We ordered 5 different rolls and some veggie Stirfry w a side of rice. Everything was excellent! We had a great experience. Reasonable prices. We would go back.”
“The pork chop was excellent! I liked that it was served with Gnocchi and not rice or a normally cooked potato. I sampled a bourbon drink and it was so good. Too much sugar if you have diabetes like my partner. Haha”
“The overall experience is amazing. The waitstaff, chefs, owners, and sommeliers all make you feel welcome. Each make sure you have an experience to remember. We love sitting at the chef’s counter. Each visit is different and always a great time.”
“My husband and I have been eating at county Claire's for years the food and service is always great sometimes there's a little wait but thats everywhere”
“Amorphic's 3 year anniversary party was absolutely epic. The space is incredible. I can't wait to try the golf simulator. The beer keeps evolving, and it attracts a very nice crowd. I highly recommend bringing friends and building memories.”

“Very good food, great service. Drove 45 mins out of my way to try this place, will be back!”
“This is one of the best patios in the city of Milwaukee. You feel like you left Milwaukee and are at a chill vibe resort. They greet you like family and the service reflects that as well. Tim, our server, was super fun and patient explaining all the drinks. Definitely added to the experience! If you’re in Milwaukee and looking for a place to destress and enjoy some great cocktails, music and vibe, stop in at Tied House Milwaukee!”
“20 year restaurant owner here. Canela = Great food. Attentive, friendly and knowledgeable service. 15 min ticket time during a bfast rush. Reasonable prices. Too many great choices all around us. Gonna go again-often.”
“Just had their lobster salad and smoked salmon, both items top notch, would buy again, and again!”
“A cozy and delightful neighborhood gem with delicious nibbles and beverages.”
“Upscale casual cozy restaurant with creative delicious food and cocktails. A very special place!”
“Peter our server was a wine connoisseur and provide us with amazing service. The food was a work of art and the taste was excellent. We can’t wait to go back.”
“Huge Thanks to Indeed Brewing Company! My son recently rented a private room at Indeed Brewing for his wife’s 30th birthday, and it was the perfect space for our celebration! The room comfortably accommodated our group of 40-65 guests, and we truly appreciated the flexibility to bring our own snacks. Having access to the microphone and sound system was a great bonus. A special shout-out to Courtney and Josh, our bar service hospitality team—they were super friendly, approachable, and attentive, checking in throughout the event to ensure everything was just right. Thank you for the fantastic experience! Keep up the great work—we will definitely be back!”

“Food and drinks were great. Tons of tvs for sports. Staff were very nice and everything was very clean! Will definitely go again.”
“Great place to hang out. Everyone working there was super welcoming and the cheese curds were awesome. Happened to be there on cheese curd night which had good flavors like prime rib and pumpkin pie flavors. There tv had some trouble showing the brewers game but otherwise was a great time.”
“first off, great marketing second off, your cashier deserves a bonus... hard core best sales person ever and he wasn't wrong about his recommendations. We'll be back. people get the sauces. All of the sauces.”
“Great quality tequila for all the fantasic house cocktails!!”
“I’ve been wanting to try this place FOREVER. And let’s be honest — I’m perimenopausal and time is not exactly slowing down for me. So for our anniversary, I took no chances. Reservations open 30 days in advance, and you better believe I was poised like an Olympic athlete at 4:00 pm sharp when they dropped. The only slot left? 5:00 pm. The early bird special. Listen — we will dine at 4:37 pm if that’s what it takes. Book it. First of all, the vibe? Chef’s kiss. Mellow, classy, a little dark, lounge-y in that “you feel cooler just sitting there” kind of way. The velvety, cushy seating made me want to cancel all my plans and just live there indefinitely. And then… Carli enters the chat. Mad. Props. To. Carli. She greeted us like we were VIPs, guided us like a culinary fairy godmother, and made recommendations with the confidence of someone who knows she’s about to change your life. We trusted her immediately — as one does when greatness appears tableside. We kicked things off with shared apps: Waygu as Rockfire (buttery, melt-in-your-soul magic), Royal Flower Dumplings, Kinnickinnic Crisp Shell, and the Nobu Spicy Salmon Crispy — which Carli brilliantly suggested we sub with tuna. A visionary. An icon. A leader. Each dish somehow outdid the last. That Waygu? I will be dreaming about it for months. It was so indulgent it should require a warning label. I’m fairly certain food p0rN was invented for that exact bite. Then came the noodle debate: Pad Thai vs. Drunken Noodles. Carli said she prefers the drunken noodles, and at this point she had not steered us wrong once — so obviously we followed her lead. Now let me just say, I once took a cooking class in Thailand and made drunken noodles myself. I’ve tasted the real deal. And this version? Hands down the best I’ve had in the U.S. No question. We added shrimp, and they were light, juicy, perfectly cooked — not a single rubbery overachiever in the bunch. Absolute perfection. We wrapped it up with a hazelnut tiramisu situation. I don’t remember the exact name because we inhaled it in approximately 18 seconds. It never stood a chance. Long story short: completely, wildly worth it. My boyfriend and I live in Madison and we both agreed we will absolutely be making the drive down just to eat here again. We came for our anniversary. We left planning our next visit. And Carli? She deserves a raise, a trophy, and possibly her own holiday.”
“We had an amazing evening in the specialty roof top decorated and heated dome! Would highly recommend this venue to anyone looking for a great atmosphere and good food!”
“Damond provided outstanding service. Great atmosphere. The Chicken Sandwich is truly the best ever. I’ll be back, working my way through the menu!”
“The menu was pleasantly authentic, service was attentive and the atmosphere welcoming. I look forward to going back.”
“I love Palaminos. The ambience is an old pub eatery. Many people eat at the bar, but there is ample seating for groups. The fish fry is the best in the city! There are 3 hearty pieces of cod. You will not go away hungry. The staff is great! definitely put it on your list!”
“If you’re reading this, make the reservation. Easily a 10/10 meal. We started with the burrata, their specialty. It was, in a word, divine. The bread was perfectly toasted. The salad underneath the burrata changes seasonally, and the apricot, honey, and truffle oil elevated it beyond expectation. I could have had another order of this for my entrée and been set. My chicken was crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Unpretentious but perfectly executed. The potatoes and broccolini came to life with the lemon caper sauce. My husband had the mac n’ cheese with short rib. The creamy mac and tender meat don’t compete in flavor — they’re in a loving, happy marriage. This is what restaurant BBQ mac should be. I’m not usually a crème brûlée person, or at least, I thought I wasn’t. I let my husband pick the dessert, and it did not disappoint. Perfectly creamy and flavorful. This is the experience you want when you decide you’re ordering a dessert. The service was top-notch. The alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks were all delightful. Heirloom MKE delivered one of my favorite dinners to date.”
“I'm 49 years old, born and raised in Oklahoma. I'd never visited a restaurant that could serve a Steak better than myself until I visited Uncle Wolfies.
Perfection. 👌”
“So much fun today with the pasta making class. Petra, was an absolute joy and very knowledgeable about Italian cooking. If you have the opportunity, come and experience for yourself”
“Thank you to Nico, Tyler, and Mitch, who were all incredibly friendly and helpful. With the outing organized by my employer as a staff bonding experience, which we know can often be awkward, this team at Nine Below truly made it a fun and memorable experience.”
“Great relaxing environment. Everyone was so friendly in there and they have a great selection of drinks”

“Amazing menu, deals, and ambiance! Visiting from out of town and would highly recommend!”
“This is the best place in all of Milwaukee to grab dinner.”
“The food was amazing! The staff was incredible! Very relaxed atmosphere. This is now one of my new favorite places for a Date Night with my spouse or even to just gather with my friends. 👏🏽💜”
“One of the best Ramen shops in town, the service is great, noise is close to nothing, and the food is amazing, the first time I went there I was blown away by the Tonkotsu ramen and returned many times. If you like Ramen noodles this is the place to try!”
“Great stuffed pizza. One of our favorite restaurants for many years.”
“My son and I went there for his 40th, this is his review And I agree, amazing!! Best Mexican food in Milwaukee…prove me wrong! Thanks Ma for a great date and Dylan the bartender was great! Dad is out chasing walleyes. Here’s to looking forward to my 40’s.”
“Very hospitable and friendly staff. the food is full of flavor that progresses with the meal. The food palate is so complete from start to finish, especially when paired with the right wine or cocktail! I will be back! Bonus, the atmosphere is comfortable, time for a meal and conversation. I can’t recommend this enough, especially if you appreciate quality food, locally sourced food that is home made.”
“Braise is my favorite Milwaukee restaurant. My husband and I go to Braise every chance we get. The ever changing menu is innovative and encourages me to try new ingredients or preparations. And it's the only restaurant where I can say I have enjoyed absolutely every item I've ever ordered!”
“an amazing dining experience! food and wine list on point, and the atmosphere is amazing! 10 out of 10 would recommend!”
“Went for breakfast. Excellent food & staff were very friendly and efficient. Highly recommend & will return. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“We went to Stella Van Buren for a date night and had such a wonderful evening! ❤️
First, a little tip if you’re visiting: the restaurant is located on the 3rd floor of The Westin Hotel, so we recommend using the valet parking. It’s only $10, which makes things much easier.
We started with an Old Fashioned, which was amazing! I also had their version of a Cosmopolitan, and it was absolutely delicious. 🍸
For appetizers, we had the meatballs and spicy tuna—both were fantastic! Then we finished the night with tiramisu and chocolate tart, and they were so, so good. 🍰
Everything from the drinks and food to the service made our date night really special. Thank you, Stella Van Buren, for a great evening! We truly enjoyed it and will definitely be back. ❤️”
“Had a delicious dinner here on a weekday night. We ordered C2, the meat and veggie platter for two people. Everything on it was delicious, flavorful, with tender meat. Perfect amount of injera served with it. Plenty of food for two, plus leftovers. The owner provided timely service, and the food came out faster than I expected. I’m already drooling thinking about going back”
“Nous adorons cet endroit, nous avons donc faite un détour pour y revenir. La nourriture est excellente et le service est sans reproche.”
“And this is why I think I am a Google reviewer because this is what I see every time I come to dine fine food fine service and a great atmosphere.
Yes students are the ones performing all of the services so under the instructor they have to give Superior dining maybe I need to stop comparing places like Texas Roadhouse to this LOL.”
“If I lived in Milwaukee, I'd eat there all the time. Loved the eggplant.”
“I would rate this restaurant 10 stars if I could. My salmon was by far the best I have ever eaten, and I spent 10 days in Scotland two years ago. The restaurant is so clean that it actually sparkles. Street parking can be a challenge but don't let that be a deterrent. You must try this restaurant!”

“Steak and scallops were exceptional. My server was very attentive and always smiling. The flow and timing of service and food was very good. A little in the pricey side but I’d rather spend a little more for great food than spend less and be disappointed. I was by myself and ate near the bar and there were three loud drunk guys there that could have used some redirection. Other than that, a near perfect evening.”
“Tastee Twist is a very good ice cream place and is very affordable. I've been going to Tastee Twist since i was a little girl and now i take my kids . I love Tastee Twist so much they should open more locations in the Milwaukee area like downtown or even in the higher part of the north side like close to mayfair.”
“I must share my experience with Gard’s on the corner of Center and Lisbon. While construction makes it a wee bit hard to park at present, our dining and bar experiences rival many places in Tosa we’ve frequented. You may want to beat the coming deluge of customers on this one, my friends, because once construction in the vicinity has ceased, it’s going to be a choice of: a.) valet parking; b.) walking or bicycle riding; c.) standing room only; d.) to-go, or; e.) Uber Eats, or similar delivery, to anywhere in the Milwaukee Metropolitan and surrounding area. You have been told: THE BEST FISH FRY/DINING-AT-A-BAR IN MILWAUKEE. Once Milwaukee Magazine and local news stations tout this delictable relaxing friendly dining scene, it’s party over if you don’t establish a rapport with your beautiful friendly bartenderess Shannon, your totally proficient and stunning waitress Jennifer, and the experts in the kitchen with whom we have yet to make their acquaintance. So, you can tell no one, lest your spot in the dining room or bar is taken. See you there. David Wahlberg (P.S.) Don’t tell my cousins Chef Paul, Donnie, or Mark, you will not be dining at Wahlburgers any longer, because you have discovered Gard’s on Lisbon and Center. [ told ‘em and I no longer get the family discount.) Come as you are and be wowed as I am each time I visit. The patrons are as friendly as the staff. See you there. Dave Wahlberg 👍✌️😉”
“Baithak of Punjab is the restaurant you need to visit to experience the best Pakistani food on Milwaukee's south side. Abdul and his family are so welcoming and their establishment is a great addition to the neighborhood. Upon entering the restaurant you'll be hypnotized by the aroma of the food being prepared. I highly reccomend the Chicken Tikka Masala, Baithak Platter, Nana and the exquisite dipping sauces. If you're ever in the area of South Howell Avenue and East Bolivar Avenue I encourage you to stop in and taste for yourself all the deliciousness Baithak of Punjab has to offer.”

“My best friend and I have been visiting for 8+ years, since we were 14/15 years old! The fusilli is our absolute favorite, and we never go without a cheeseboard or the flourless chocolate cake. We have always had great service and it has made every celebration worth visiting Onestos! ❤️”
“Definitely an experience right up my alley! i was glad we went for lunch when it was slower so we were able to walk through the whole place and take in every room! One of a kind uniqueness! Food was good, prices were no more, no less than traditional restaurant and the atmosphere was 100% better! My only disappointment was that they were out of all their merchandise and you can't order anything online. We are visiting from Central NY so it's not loke I can go back to get what I wanted. i would have easily spent over $100 o. merchandise alone. that being said, I would 100% recommend this to anyone looking for a fun, meal that is a complete experience!”
“They came to Myrtle Beach for the fall rally and let me tell you they were very excited 😊 they were so sweet and always had a smile on there faces I would tell everyone about them I hope to see them again in the spring for the rally those young men were very respectful and honest I love they way they carried there self you have so great people working for your company”
“My wife and I stopped in for dinner. We’re on a weekend getaway. My wife ordered the Salmon 🍣 and I ordered the Chicken and Waffles. Service was surperb! Atmosphere was great! The background music was awesome and the volume was not overpowering. The food was wicked awesome! When we’re back in town we’re definitely going back!”
“DanDan is delicious and I can’t wait to come back! The General Tao’s cauliflower was the best I’ve ever had. I also enjoyed the DanDan Noodles and Sichuan Pork Dumplings which both had amazing flavor and were quite filling. The Golden Pineapple drink was incredible and I’m still thinking about it! Next time I’m going to explore deeper into the menu and drink list.”
“I had an issue yesterday, ordered an hour before and they ran out of what I ordered and suggested a refund, was unable to get refund due to the AI Slop popeyes support team but I came back today and who I assume is the manager a tall black buffed guy was able to help me out, got the kitchen to make my order for me and was very professional, deserves a raise because he asked his crew questions about the order and was able to get me my food! Top tier service, he definitely should get a raise or a promotion to a leader role if he already isn't in one!”
“I was hired for curbside at Applebee's on Miller parkway west Milwaukee in wi. I was there for 4 hours for training and Applebee's did not pay me for it. I never went back because I am not going to work and not get paid. plus the trainer was unprofessional and so were some of the servers. one of the managers were the rudest disrespectful manager I have ever experienced working with.”
“Literally the best filet of my life! You have ruined all other steaks for me 😜 The garlic butter on top made it even more amazing. Literally everything I had was so delicious…twice baked potato, onion ring, corn bread, fresh baked bread and even my martini. This is our new date night spot from now on! ❤️”

“We’ve gone twice in the last few days so hopefully I recount all the items we’ve tried so far and name them correctly lol. Biscuits and gravy! This is the best I’ve ever had. The biscuit was thick and hearty but not dry, and the gravy was absolutely the best I’ve tasted. Homemade comfort at its finest—rich and savory with a fantastic flavor. I look forward to the next time, and I just finished eating it. The almond matcha cookie—I’m not normally a matcha fan, but this cookie was intriguing. It started with a thin, crispy almost sugar cookie flavor outer layer at first, then the almond flavor shines through. Not overly sweet just a good thick, soft cookie. The butterscotch blondie— you can really taste the butter. It was the first sweet I tried here, and it immediately got me hooked. The Oreo blondie—my kid devoured it before I could even take a bite. The egg sandwich on sourdough with sausage was good. I added the homemade chili oil which I got on the side, as I’m sometimes a wimp with spice, but this chili oil is so flavorful I’d put it on everything. So if I order a cookie with a side of chili oil you just nevermind- I might need some of this to keep on hand. It adds a nice bite without overpowering the other flavors—just the right amount of heat. The fluffernutter cookie—what?!! yes, definitely try it! Obv Carrot cake bites -carrot cake yes frosting yes - I need more. Everything we’ve tasted so far has been excellent. You can tell it’s homemade, the flavors come through clearly, and it’s just comforting, delicious food. Can I add that the people working there have gone above and beyond and truly enjoy what they do and this place! They are the best food consultants :) they spent so much time with us explaining the items and it got me to try some things I might not have otherwise. Oh and the building itself - the space has a great warm friendly vibe.”
“From Melbourne, Australia & St Louis area. We wanted healthy, delicious food before heading to STL Sunday. We ordered 2 vegan dishes & chicken schwarma. WOW!! The hummus, baba ganosh, pita, salads, falafel & rice ...all of it just delicious. It was so reasonably priced & served with such kindness. I left both my glasses & phone at the register. Both were returned to me by the owner. Duh to me:) Our 3rd sister had never eaten these foods. She tried it all & loved every bite. I wish I lived closer because I would be a regular.”
“Their spicy chicken shawarma with extra grarlic sauce is absolutely perfect, the way they grill the shawarma so the bread is toasted is on point, the service was great and the bang for your buck is better than other options for Arab food. Do yourself a favor and order one.”
“☕✨ I finally got to try Azal Coffee in Seminole County, and let me tell you—it was totally worth the wait!We ordered a few of their different coffees and desserts, and every single thing was incredible. The flavor in the coffee is amazing, and the treats pair perfectly with it.On top of how delicious the food and drinks are, the customer service was absolutely wonderful. They make you feel so welcome the second you walk in.If you haven't been yet, you need to check this spot out! 10/10 recommend. 👇👇”
“A perfect third space for gathering in small groups in a place that doesn’t focus on alcohol. Lots of pastry and beverage options, including selections with and without caffeine. Staff is friendly and kind. The space is pretty and bright, with seating options for individuals, pairs, and groups. A nice place to work on a laptop or have a conversation with a friend.”
“Food was excellent of course and very friendly staff. I was there at lunch time with my wife and sister, We were surprised at how empty the restaurant was. Such an awesome food buffet and hardly anyone was there. You need to give Himalayan Yak some love and check it out!”
“Found this place on a whim by searching food near me on our way home from St. Lukes. We checked out the menu and were sold! I must say the food was hot and tasty! I had the Onion Burger, My friend the Bang Bang Shrimp Tacos. The serving size were plentiful. We will definitely be back and we'll spread the word !! Keep it Up!!”
