We had turkey dinner last year and it was fairly good. This year, I made our reservation in early October for 5:00pm. Upon our arrival, informed that turkey was all gone, yet drive thru appeared to be open with very long line. Very disappointing and the dinners (duck, salmon and chicken Parm were all just ok). However, service was excellent (Christina wonderful). Even though I didn't ask, chicken was comped (dry, cold and breading soggy). Overall, it appeared to be a rough day.

Awesome place if it's your type of vibe. If you want lively, loud, and adventurous then Packing House is not the spot for you. They deliver a solid, all around white linen experience everytime and a consistent value that won't disappoint.

If you want casual, but elegant ambiance, attentive staff and outstanding food -visit The Packing House. I've been coming here for decades, and they never disappoint! Always first-rate! For the first time in my life, I ordered Beef Wellington. It's a filet mignon, wrapped in a baked dough, giving it a bread-like crust. There are mushroom & garlic added in for flavor. It was delicious, especially with the Cognac sauce. Mmmmm!
My wife had the 8 oz Filet, with shredded onion rings and mashed potatoes. Everything was great. We'll be back.

It was my first time & it was PACKED!
I sat at the bar, no I don't drink, & put my order of a specific fish fry, lots of lemon slices! There were 3 bar waitresses & it was almost magic how all 3 waited on me! EXCELLENT SERVICE! THANK YOU LADIES & CHEF who got my to go order right! Lots of food, very good food!
They also have a drive-thru but someone said the drive-thru only takes cash. I didn't want to take the chance of waiting in the line which was all the way on Layton!
EXCELLENT PLACE!

The Packing House absolutely delivered a top-tier dining experience from start to finish. The steak was a perfect 5/5, cooked medium rare just as ordered — tender, juicy, and full of flavor. The Garlic Stuffed Filet stood out as a beautifully prepared, high-quality cut that showed real attention to detail.

To start, the Crab Stuffed Mushrooms hit the spot — rich, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. The Fried Eggplant was another pleasant surprise, crispy on the outside with a tender, savory interior.

And of course, no meal here would be complete without their Old Fashioned, which was mixed to perfection — smooth, balanced, and exactly what you’d expect from a true Wisconsin supper club classic.

From the food to the cocktails and cozy, nostalgic atmosphere, The Packing House proves why it’s a Milwaukee favorite. A must-visit for anyone who appreciates great steak and timeless supper club charm.

Opted a fairly late night last minute reservations and were not disappointed. It is a bit pricier but we splurged on a meal we do not get often. The crab eas good and loved they had it split open for you.
