Warmth radiates from the restaurant as soon as you step in— we had the paella dinner for 2. It was the perfect celebratory date night dinner!

We visited Cavas in Milwaukee this past Saturday for my bachelorette party -- 7 of us -- and Chef Ana was absolutely incredible! She not only served an amazing meal, but she was patient, warm and handled our lively group with so much grace and good humor. The entire team was wonderful and made us feel taken care of from start to finish. The food was exceptional, the atmosphere was perfect, and the service was truly top-tier. Highly recommend Cavas and Chef Ana for a wonderful dinner experience.

Excellent food and customer service in a relaxing atmosphere. The paella was fantastic! We will be back!
Had a wonderful dinner at this gem of a restaurant and would highly recommend dining here to celebrate a special evening! We did the seven course experience and every plate was just as delicious as the last. Service was excellent and they are very accommodating of allergies. I have a gluten allergy and felt very safe eating here and was able to enjoy every course with very slight modifications!
Exceptional food, service and ambiance. We felt we were transported out of Milwaukee into a magical culinary land. Ana and Peter made our anniversary celebration so special. We are looking forward to next time.

My family and I recently had the pleasure of celebrating with Chef Ana at Cavas. The small, intimate restaurant was fully staffed by her and her husband and the service was personal, warm and attentive at all times. Everything in the seven course Tasting Menu was carefully and skillfully made and representative of the Spanish flavors and cuisine that the menu promises. The restaurant is both pretty and intimate, the expertly prepared food is at different times elegant and bold, but it is the warmth and hospitality that we felt that I believe we will be most reminiscing about in the years to come.

The care that went into our meal was evident. Had the paella which was done as the chef's mother would have made, lovely. Immediately booked a return to try the prix fix menu.
My wife and I celebrated our anniversary at CAVAS, and I can honestly say it was one of the most special dining experiences we’ve ever had in Milwaukee. From the moment we walked in, we felt as though we’d been welcomed into the home of an established Spanish or Argentinian chef. Chef Ana and her husband Peter bring such warmth, hospitality, and passion to every detail — it’s clear this is more than just a restaurant, it’s their craft and their home.
The food was nothing short of phenomenal. Each course felt thoughtfully curated, beautifully presented, and bursting with authentic flavor. We’ve dined at many restaurants in the city, but nothing compares to the intimacy and care you feel here. It’s rare to find a place where you can experience both world-class cuisine and the personal touch of the people behind it.
CAVAS is truly a hidden gem — Milwaukee is lucky to have it. If you’re looking for an unforgettable dining experience, whether for a special occasion or simply to treat yourself, I cannot recommend it highly enough.

We come to Milwaukee for various special events each year: Art in Bloom at the Milwaukee Museum of Art, and China Lights at the Boerner Botanic Gardens are both very special. Equally special is a magnificent meal at Cava. Chef Anna creates authentic Spanish dishes served with love and with pride. Many herbs come from Chef Anna's own organic garden. It is romantic, memorable and a very special experience.
What an amazing and unexpected experience in downtown Milwaukee. All of the reviews are spot on. Service is amazing and personal. Food is delicious! Make a reservation! You will not regret it!
Chief Ana and her husband Peter are amazing. The food and the overall experience were fantastic. This is definitely a place I would recommend for a special evening out.
We had an incredible experience dining here! It is a very small, family-owned dining institution and we loved the atmosphere. The server and chef went out of their way to create a great, intentional, and special experience. The food was also incredible!
