About Las Gardenias Mexican Cuisine

Las Gardenias Mexican Cuisine offers outstanding and impeccable Mexican food in Milwaukee. The atmosphere is warm, inviting, and wonderful with a great and attentive staff. The menu for both lunch and dinner is excellent, featuring dishes like bone marrow, Aguachile Rojo, the Mexican stew, birra pollo, and the bistec tacos, which are half-price on Tuesdays. Everything is prepared from scratch using quality ingredients, ensuring flavors with depth and subtlety. The restaurant boasts a great cocktail list with many liquors from Mexico, including a large selection of Mexican beer, tequila, mezcal, raicilla, and sotol, along with an exclusive selection of Mexican wines, with half-off bottles on Wednesday. Service is friendly and quick, and the owner is usually there to ensure a great experience. The space is beautifully renovated with flowers and nods to Mexico, complemented by a lively atmosphere with music and a festive vibe. The drinks are inventive and delicious, with favorites like the El Elote cocktail, and the salsa flight is highly recommended. For appetizers, the choriqueso and tuetano y salsa de molcajete are popular choices. Entrees like tamales verdes con pollo and camarones al achiote with sikil p’aak salsa are highly praised, packed with fresh, flavorful ingredients. Recently added lunch options are eagerly anticipated. This is a fine dining experience that comes with the highest recommendations.
