“Alright people - I found another local gem. Fire Side BBQ (7706 W Burleigh) is the bbq restaurant I have been looking for coming from Tennessee. Before anyone comments on that sauce, I ask for extra anytime I hear the restaurant makes their own sauce because I want the full experience of the cook I’m dealing with. The sauce was AMAZING.. but.. THIS. BRISKET. WAS. FIRE! Brisket is the ultimate test to see if you’re dealing with a good BBQ place, and this is the best brisket I have had from a restaurant in Wisconsin. I have also heard their fish fry is outstanding, and to top it off, they have live DJs on Friday nights!! This is such a cool spot and I cannot wait to come back!“

“We scheduled a last minute large social event at the Red Rock Salon. We were meet with Phenomenal service! Grace and Quincy were able to help us out and facilitate all the logistics. I know I’m going to leave somebody out as I could not remember all the amazing folks at the bar but Sam, Alicia, and Christine were amazing bartenders a crazy hard workers. I was visiting from Orlando Fl where we see 6-7 million visitors a year and have a large amount of hospitality staff. Sam and Alicia‘s hard work and smiles, made the difference while serving our customers and patrons. I look forward to bringing another conference group back here in the future for amazing burgers and great drinks.

Thank you again to all the staff at the Red Rock Salon!“
