“We ordered the number 3 and number 1 and they were both so delicious. They had very good spice level as well as taste. The bread was soft and warm. The meat had a great flavor and wasn't dry. The fries as well were a pleasant surprise and came with a delicious seasoning on top. I also highly recommend thier rice pudding as well.Vegetarian options: There are at least 4 vegetarian options.“
“I stopped in last night with my mom and best friend before seeing a comedy show at the Riverside. We got there early because we were anticipating a decent wait time. Charlie met us at the door and was super friendly. He apologized that it would be a 30 minute wait, which we anticipated, and he was asking us about what show we were seeing and cracked a few jokes. Our table was actually ready in 15 minutes, and Daniel was our server. Also, very friendly and personable. When I went to order my drink, he let me know they didn't have it in at the moment, but he had a few other options ready to suggest and really made sure I got something close to what I wanted to order. Pit food came out quickly and was delicious. Daniel kept checking in, and when we went to order drinks to go with out dessert, he was ready to make sure we got drinks we would be happy with. As we left, both were very friendly and said goodbye, saying they hoped we came back to tell them about the show. We were very happy and impressed. The 3 of us said we would love to go back again if we are back in the area for another show. Thank you so much Charlie and Daniel for an amazing night out last night.“
“Came here with my boyfriend for the first time. We were well greeted and seated. Seating didn't take much to wait for. We had an awesome waiter who recommended us some great breakfast options. The food was amazing, too. Would totally recommend anybody to come give them a visit and enjoy their food. 10/10!!!“
“This was a wonderful meal with fantastic service. Trey recommended perfect wine pairings for our meal and it was start to finish, a great experience. The dining room is a bit loud with the open format, but that's more of a personal preference than anything.“
“Fantastic burgers at any price, but for $10.75 you get the Big O, or a little less for the other burgers. Sides are great. Service is great (and usually pretty fast). Have yet to have a bad experience, and I don’t expect I will. I go out of my way to come here for lunch. Truly a hidden gem, although probably not for much longer.Parking: There’s a significant curb to get over to get into the parking lot. If you drive a low car, park on the street.Wheelchair accessibility: Yes“
“Are you kidding me! Wow. Small pub big time food and beverage. I could not wait to get off 94 N to eat at this place. Fish sandwich out of this world. Bloody Mary worthy of a crown. If your into burgers this is your spot. What's best is that prices are so reasonable. A must!“
“I had flown into town for my birthday, the best birthday dinner ever. I had gotten the 5 course with wine pairing and that is the best choice. Every few months I come to town and I will be back for another fabulous dinner... worth every penny..“
“The elegant and pristine palace the is the Engine Company Number three is poetic in the way of food. The atmosphere is a certain je ne sais quoi if a may be so bold. Hmmm. Which I may!! If you have yet to go treat yourself, just tell them Dan sent you. It will do nothing for you but it sounds cool to act like you know someone working there.“
“Finally tried Hot Dish for lunch recently and had a great overall experience. The dining room is lovingly decorated with plants, antique/vintage finds, and furniture that felt like home. Had the classic hot dish (how could I not) and the loaded baked potato pierogis - amazingly good and very comforting on a chilly day! I’ll definitely be back to try more menu items and highly recommend - you can dine in or order for pickup/delivery.“
“In Milwaukee for a day to catch a show and stumbled upon this gem. I had the chicken and biscuits with gravy while my wife enjoyed the birria skillet. Food was fantastic! Honestly surprised myself not opting for the omelette with cheese curds inside, but wasn’t disappointed with my choice at all. Service was excellent as well. Seems like a local favorite and we understand why. Probably the nicest dining establishment restroom I’ve ever been is as well. We will definitely be back.“
“Go! This place is awesome. I say sat at the bar on a Saturday night alone and had amazing service. The food was to die for. The drinks were tasty. I need to take a date here so I can try more of the menu at once! I cannot wait to make my way through this menu. So so good!!!!“
“Always fantastic- went for my wife's birthday and literally every thing was tasty and delicious- everything- amazing lamb carpaccio, excellent, not fatty pork belly- even the salads were really flavorful. Service, from changing our party size to helping with the surprise, was also “
“Absolutely fantastic! After a long day of traveling and an afternoon walking all around Milwaukee, I came to Buckley’s with my parents for dinner. This converted home has been turned into a fancy-casual restaurant with an exquisite atmosphere. I tried the Broccoli starter, which came with a nice miso tahini sauce that provided a unique flavor. The Buckley Burger was one of the best burgers I’ve ever had. The meat itself was so high quality and full of flavor, and the crisp brioche bun and toppings and condiments complimented the burger perfectly. I also had the Lobster pasta and it lives up to how delicious a lobster dish has to be. Absolute class when it came to combining the lemon and tomato flavors with the lobster in a light pasta dish. My Dad also says the salmon dish he had was really good. For dessert, it was hard to choose which of Mrs. Buckley’s items to get. We got the famous carrot cake and the seasonal St. Patrick’s cheesecake. All I know is that Mrs. Buckley doesn’t miss! Both desserts were so delicious and the high quality showed once again. The service was great, too. We were never rushed even with the restaurant being packed. The waitress was very nice, answered questions, and told us a little bit about the Buckley family. On top of everything mentioned, the pricing was very good and the portions were large. Overall, this is a restaurant I trust after my first visit. You can’t go wrong with Buckley’s. 5 STARS!!!!!“
“I have not had the food. I usually just go for a beer. They have a great rewards program and they always have a great beer selection, so many varieties. The staff is always friendly but today Julie, the bartender and by herself and she was busy but she was still super friendly and took great care of us.“
“I have been going to Martino's since I was a little boy. My dad took me there when I was very young. I lived a lot closer then, however, I don't miss a chance to go now. Anytime I am in the area I will stop and get a Chicago style hot dog. It is the best I've ever had! The service is always fantastic, the people always friendly, and the food quality is second to none.“
“Restaurant looks plain and ordinary from the outside but inside is top notch. Service left nothing to be desired - perfect. Ordered all of the appetizers and they did not disappoint either! Every one was amazing - 10 out of 10! Had the Korean tacos, smoked salmon dip, spring rolls ( they were out of pork belly and replaced them with these), flautas, scallops. All were amazing and blew my mind that every appetizer was perfect - I would have expected at least one to leave room for improvement but no! Highly recommended“
“I really shouldn't share this, as this is a gem on the Beer Line / Brewers Hill divide that doesn't take reservations. The food and people are both great.Parking: Park on any nearby street and walk, but don't expect to get in if you aren't in line when they open.“
“Benny's is one of the best family restaurants I've been to in a very long time. Our server was fantastic, the food was delicious, and my classic bloody was made from scratch, not a mix! I had an avacado omelet, American fries and pancakes, Happy Birthday to me! Glad I picked here, we'll be back again.“
“We've been here a few times, and the food is always pretty good, but I'm pleased to say we've finally had something that we thought was really exceptionally well done, which was the Buffalo Cauliflower Bites. These were really excellent, and I would probably get them instead of wings here in the future. The rest of the meal was good as well, a wide variety of options are available, so I'd say this is a good option for family or business meals where you need something to please different palettes. Conveniently located directly on a HOP Streetcar stop as well.“
“This was our first time at the Diplomat, and we won’t hesitate to return…. But diners need to be prepared to drop a bit of cash, and possibly leave a bit hungry. Food is fabulous, creative and 5 star all the way…. But portions are small for the price. Example: 1 piece of sourdough bread with butter $8. Mind you, it was one of the best pieces of bread I’ve had in a long time, but may also be the generous amount of butter you can slather on it. The ambience is like a 1960’s living room …. Great decor!Vegetarian options: They have a delicious Rissoto, snd several small vegetarian small plates.“
“Pete’s is a great little pub, especially in contrast to most of the other options on Brady St. It’s definitely a sports bar (and a great place to catch early morning football matches or F1 races!), but without all the neon and cheesiness, and with unexpectedly great drink options. The food menu is full of great versions of popular pup foods, and the staff is always really friendly and good at what they do. You do have to order everything at the bar (vs. servers and table service) which can be a little cumbersome and hectic when the pub gets busy, but it’s not really something that takes away from the experience as a whole. Overall, highly recommend this place!“
“I just discovered this 2 weeks ago. I amHOOKED. I moved to Milwaukee 6 months ago and this is definitely one of my new favorite spots. The cheese curds are to die for! The Rueben rolls are incredible. The Mac and cheese is out of this world. I love the late night food option, that’s how I ended up here. The place has a very local neighborhood vibe. I will be going back here over and over.“
“Best pizza in Milwaukee. Excellent wings and eggplant fries too. Large booths so you can take little kids too. Great beer selection and friendly staff. My family tries to stop every time in town and I often grab some to go when driving through MKE.“
“Visited on a Tuesday and had the pleasure of being served by Omar, who was nothing short of amazing. His vibes were top-notch, making the atmosphere lively and welcoming. Not only did he have an impressive knack for suggesting the perfect drinks, but his shot selections were on point too. Omar's exceptional service and genuine care for his patrons definitely make him stand out as a star bartender. If you're looking for a great night out, Omar's your go-to at the bar. Can't wait to return!“
“The food and service was exceptional; our waitress Jennifer was amazing, she was overloaded, but still had a smile and took care of everything perfectly; I had the cod fish and chips with the Reuben appetizers; large portions and cooked perfectly; next time I’m in Milwaukee, I will definitely eat here again!“
“This place doesn't only looks good, it is really good!Food, service, location....we enjoyed it a lot!Our waiter, Davin or Daven (not really sure how to write it) was an absolute professional but also a very kind person who didn't bother to tell us a bit more about Milwaukee, about the beers they have, about what food might be the best for us...If you visit Milwaukee, visit Mason Street Grill!“
“Mandi is an amazing server/bartender. Our drinks and food were served quickly and we didn't wait too long for any refills. She always has a smile on her face and communicates with every single customer. She is friendly and an asset to Liquid Johnny's. We will definitely be coming back!“
“Highlights/Lowlights 1. Outdoor Fire Pits 2. Food Available 3. Open Year Round We love coming to South Shore! Glad this spot is open all year round. There are lots of picnic tables inside and outside, and gas fire pits on the patio in the Fall and Winter. Views of Lake Michigan are top notch as this spot is right on the water. The menu selection is pretty big for a Biergarten with sandwiches, flat bread, a variety of appetizers and drinks. They even have a gluten-free* crust for the flatbread. We did a few sandwiches and a flatbread and thought the food was pretty good. This place is really for the ambiance and drinks so probably won't be the best meal you've ever had but the food serves its purpose. Note - they have beer, seltzers and sangria. This is part of MKE County Parks so they don't have a permit for wine. We love South Shore and will continue to keep visiting! *Not sure about cross-contamination for gluten-free items. Recommended to call and ask if you have additional needs“
“The best damn diner in Milwaukee. The family that owns Landmark is so kind and attentive. Food comes out quickly, hot and delicious. We’ve been regulars here for the last 10 years and have never found another diner that can compare!Dietary restrictions: Gluten free“
“Full fine dining experience, minus pretentiousness. Our service was incredible and made us feel like we'd been regular patrons for years. We went on a Saturday, so we only had the option of 4 course menu (7 is reserved for weeknights, we'll definitely be back). Not only was our food and service outstanding, but the wine pairings really took this experience over the top(I believe the wine person was Jeffrey, my hearing isn't so great) if you enjoy dining, and live in Milwaukee, don't wait as long as we did to visit, it's worth experiencing!(The photo I posted was when I was nearly finished, the presentation before I messed it up was beautiful)“
“We ate here on 3/9. The food, cocktails and the service were amazing. Knocking a star off for the hostess who told us we needed to be out of there by a certain time. The kitchen got backed up so courses were coming out a little slow. This normally doesn’t bother me but since the hostess told us when we had to be gone, it ruined my ability to enjoy the entree and dessert as I was worried about getting out of there on time. It shouldn’t be something the hostess puts onto the patrons. It was our first time there and I am not sure about returning.“
“It's your typical dive bar and food, the service was awesome the gentleman we had was great on 4/9/24 before the Bucks game. The only complaints I have was the fryer oil could have been changed and the fries were over seasoned. But everything was great will back for a visit when back in “
“Popped in for lunch during the week. Picked up one of their burger specials. The burger was great, as expected and described in other posts. Would happily come back for the burger. Service wasn’t really great but definitely not a deal breaker.“
“This was one of the best meals I have had in awhile. We started with the tuna tartar which was perfection. Then my husband got a steak and I got fish. Both dishes were absolutely delicious. We decided to do the trio of sides to share. I highly recommend doing this as we got a hearty portion of each side and it was nice to be able to try a few options. The service was impeccable. We will definitely be back.“

“Came here on a whim on a Saturday without a reservation. They have a bar and side lounge area where you can order drinks and appetizers.Appetizers were great, drinks are great. The layout in the lounge is a bit awkward, and the bartender had to search for me to deliver the food. And it was an awkward table to chair height to eat food.“
“We came here recently with our two young kids. The host sat us in the back, which was good because it's a pretty lively place and the kids are still easily distracted, especially during dinner time. In any case everyone loved the food. I think it was my third time here and it's been consistently good. The sausages are of high quality with interesting toppings. There's a small variety of comforting sides, my favorites probably being the poutine (though I haven't tried the mushroom version) and loaded fries. The service was great - our server was accommodating and patient and made the experience all the better.“
“First time in, Friday night for two of us for a friend’s birthday. Everything was superb, food was so delicious, staff was very accommodating. Friendly and helpful service from my questions over the phone before booking, to altering our reservation, to dinner service with our wonderful server Moi, to serving my carry-in cake. Homemade bread was excellent and their tomato sauce was out of this world. I got the cioppino he got the ravioli and we just kept raving about the sauce. 5 stars highly recommend“
“Amazing...entry kinda threw me off, but the world opened up to low cost food that is amazing...definitely worth the cheat meal...great service, amazing food! I had the birria burrito, great...fruity pebble waffles, good balance of both waffle and fruity pebbles (not excessive), had a smoothie, which was full of sweetness but worth it, taste didn't disappoint. all for under 30$ with 2 ppl. Highly recommended“
“Great atmosphere with really solid food and drink for fair prices. Service was fine. They had a damn good live music setup too. The bar is definitely the right vibe.Fish fry was worth it. Especially the perch. Super light breading and fresh fry.“
“A classic place to dine in for breakfast. The atmosphere is warm and inviting with a great menu for everyone to enjoy. Only wish the servers were more attentive, but overall, very kind. We will be back for more delicious breakfast and lunch!“
“Easter Sunday and one of the few places I found open. I was out for a @WiscoMary Sunday Bloody Mary, and I was not disappointed. Magoo's has their own Tito's infused vodka with jalapenos, their own special Bloody Mary mix, their Worcestershire sauce includes dry rub seasoning. My bloody was served with a cheese curd, before stick, and olive . Connor was an excellent bartender/server. Definitely a great place to watch the game and have their delicious wings. Great staff, great atmosphere, great food.“
“Last night (Sat night), my daughter & I get out of the hockey game among thousands from the arena while the college basketball game at the F.F had also let out. We first walk in to Major Goolsbys & I was thinking "It will be the same old situation with these new times of age; having to wait for a table, then wait much longer to get service, especially with two major games nearby just letting out.", gee was I mistaken! There were still several tables available in your bar which has a high capacity & already had many attendees. We take one, within a minute a server (shorter young blonde whose hair was frizzied & in a tail ending at her upper back, said she went to UWM, I should've gotten her name but I gave her a generous tip) calmly & nicely came right up to us and took a drink order, then came right back with the drinks we had ordered, got our food order which we didnt have to wait long for it to be prepared at all (your hamburger & onions rings were delicious btw). The place was rockin'. I commend the entire staff for running a efficient bar & grill that has been a Milwaukee institution! You guys & "Someplace Else" on Water St. which burned down in the late 80's set the standard for Milwaukee's places to go to for drinks & bar food in which other establishments merely try to copy.“
“First time here.. didn’t have to wait on a Friday night at 6:30 which was great.Meal was solid, nothing out of this world. But vibes were great. Would definitely come back to try a burger OR brunch.Wish the potato chips had a garlic aioli to dip.“
“lovely local diner with good food and good service [cash only]I tried this place out for the first time this past weekend after being recommended by a friend and was not disappointed.It's a small restaurant that physically is showing signs of its age, but the good food and friendly staff more than make up for it in my opinion.They're a cash only business and only open breakfast-lunch, but prices are absolutely reasonable and I would definitely recommend stopping here if you're in the area and looking for a bite to eat.Parking: parking next to the restaurant is limited to a few street spots in front, the next door liquor store does have a parking lot and there is free street parking nearby if you're willing to walk a block“
“Ordered the calamari, filet mignon, Brussels and dessert. Everything tasted great. I think the steak could have used more seasoning but it was cooked well. The Brussel sprouts were absolutely delicious. Calamari was served with pepper flakes which was great. Overall very happy with my experience and would definitely come back. Service was excellent. Anjail took great care of me and did everything promptly with a smile on her face.“
“One of our go-to places for happy hour! They have great drink deals and the food is also so good. I normally get the house sangria but this time I tried some sour cherry and lime spritzer. It wasn't on the menu for some reason but the bartender recommended it, as it's very popular. for food, we went with the breakfast poutine - always a good choice. And we tried the pancake batter fried cheese curds which were AMAZING. They come with maple syrup for dipping and it's unreal. Such a cute spot and it never disappoints!“
“Nestled in the heart of Bay View, Honeypie Cafe stands out as a beacon for me when in search of a cozy dining experience coupled with high-quality food. It's a place that resonates with the burger aficionados, pie enthusiasts, and anyone who appreciates a clean, welcoming atmosphere.This place is honestly a favorite of mine, it delivers a culinary journey that is both satisfying and memorable. The menu is a testament to their commitment to excellence, I'm very confident saying it's very hard to go wrong with any menu item on here. Whether you're in for a quick lunch or a leisurely dinner, you're in for a treat.The ambiance of Honeypie Cafe adds to the charm, with its pristine cleanliness and cozy setup, making it an ideal spot for a casual meet-up or a "solo escapade".They have an outdoor seating which is great during the summer and warm weather. The location is very walkable and the interior is very clean.I'll always have Honeypie as a top choice for food.Parking: Plenty of parking on KK. Never been a problem for me.Kid-friendliness: The place is quiet and cozy. It is friendly but not a Chuck-E friendly :)Wheelchair accessibility: Accessible. Entrance may require some help due to door.“
“This place is underrated. The service is quick, friendly, personable and efficient. Even when it's busy you will only wait for roughly ten minutes for your order. And the servers approach you as you walk in. Breakfast prices are reasonable compared to other restaurants charging far much more for it and dinner has a wide variety of food such as multiple steaks and seafood such as calamari, lobster shrimp and tons of fish like rainbow trout, cod and salmon.“
“The only pre fee coursed meal I'd experienced before coming to Ardent was Thomas Keller's Per Se.... Let me tell you, this experience at Ardent exceeded every past "elite" dining experience I've had.Each course was well thought out and beautifully executed. Highlights on our menu were the curry carrot cake and the uni onion soup. Each course held an element of surprise and finesse. I asked my boyfriend to take my back here for my birthday. Everyone cross your fingers!!!!“
“Last two times I have gone here I have had bad food. Fried chicken livers way over done, and beef shank was dry and tough, variable were under cooked to he point of being raw. And last time I went somehow my bill came out to $168. I had drinks and bought cocktails mix to go, but just seemed like too much after I thought about it. Not sure if I trust restaurant manger, seemed to be playing around with the bill.“
