“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.“

Edith Cocktail Bar Cocktail Bar •

“I cannot say enough good things about our experience at Edith. When you go to a place for cocktails, you usually expect the cocktails to be the star of the show and while I cannot express how delicious and thoughtfully crafted the cocktails were, Rhondi (the owner) was the real star. She has created such an inviting and beautiful space to share her passion. Edith is a rare gem. We will definitely be back!“

“Had an amazing dinner on March 22nd at Cavas! Chef Ana and her husband Peter made us feel as if we were in their kitchen at home, enjoying cultural dining and champagne over family stories. The food was out of this world! We ordered the Mixta Paella for two. It came with an appetizer of Entrada (Pepa's mushrooms). This did not disappoint; the mushrooms were fresh and in olive oil sauce with Manchego cheese served on artisan bread. Next was Mixta Paella...a combination of Valenciana and Mariscos paella (roasted chicken, slow cooked pork and chorizo, with a mix of clams, mussels, shrimp, and white vermouth). The Spanish rice was crispy with flavor for days, the seafood fresh, and the chicken and pork cooked to perfection. Just when we thought we couldn't eat anymore, Chef Ana brought dessert, mini-Spanish flan and mini-Spanish bread pudding. Miraculously we found more room, as the dessert tasted like heaven! During the meal we sipped on a bottle of Cava champagne (included in the paella for two price) and enjoyed every minute of it. It's been a while since we had a dining experience this special. Chef Ana and Peter make you feel like a part of their family, and you can taste the love in the food. Highly recommend Cavas for date night, big family dinners, or a night with friends you won't forget!“

“The food is delicious. I’ve been here three times now. My favorite are the lamb chops. Service was great atmosphere was good a little more adequate for my taste. You don’t really feel comfortable having conversations because you tend to wanna be quiet in this kind of atmosphere which is not bad depending on what you’re going for And most importantly who you’re going with.It is a little pricey, but not too bad, considering how great the food is but the drinks are definitely overpriced and water down.“

“This was our second time here. It was a busy night, we were seated towards the back of the dining room, along with 2 other tables. One of the tables had two adults and several children. The entire time they were seated, they were on their phones, watching loud videos with the sounds very loud. Super distracting for us and the other table. In hindsight we should have said something to our server, Jasensia? I would have expected that the server and/or manager would be mindful of this type of client behavior and ask that they silence their phones. As much as we tried, we could not put it our of our minds.The food entrees were both good. Insalata Della Casa with chicken, and the Pesce al Pistachio (grouper). The service was very good. Friendly and attentive.Got a couple desserts. The Banana Semi-freddo was excellent. The Torta di Caprese was not very good. We were expecting a typical flourless cake that is dense/fudgelike. This was more like a gluten free cake. Pretty disappointing.Not sure if we are likely to return. So many other good restaurants with better ambiance.“

“The drinks were great. What I had to drink first was 'Greek in Wisconsin' which was really sweet, and my girlfriend had wine. Appetizers were saganaki and zucchini fritters. The fritters were good, saganaki is not the traditional saganaki. Dinner was good, just needed lemon for the Greek fries. The moussaka was really good! The service was great, very attentive but the ambiance is a bit loud and we were downstairs so it was kind of loud and we were right by the stairs. I didn't do my homework and request to be seated upstairs.“

“We used the Greige Patisserie for our November 2023 wedding in Oconomowoc, WI. They did our personal cutting cake and dessert bar. We mainly communicated with Miranda, who was very responsive, professional and helpful. The dessert tasting appointment was really fun to try out some of the more popular treats. They delivered and set-up all the desserts on wedding day and it looked perfect. The cake was absolutely beautiful and exactly like the inspo pictures we shared. The dessert bar was a hit and we had multiple guests talking about how good all the treats were all weekend. We had s’mores shooters, strawberry shortcake shooters, lemon bars, salted caramel tarts, snickerdoodle cookies and macarons. We would definitely recommend the Greige Patisserie to future couples. Thank you!!“

In MKE we look for great spots like this to sit outside and enjoy the warm weather. My date suggested this place and I've never been here. Nice selection of drinks and nice small menu for appetizers or small plates to share. We had the Capalatina and Olive salad. They have events monthly so join the mailing list. I will definitely be back to enjoy the company and sunset views off the front deck. Check it out and support!“

Voyager

Voyager Wine Bar • $$

Olives

“I stopped into the Voyager for a couple of drinks on a balmy Monday night in March. With a modern, European vibe, Voyager was my kind of place. After a couple of vodka cocktails, I wanted to purchase a bottle of wine as I will do what I can to support local businesses. The patrons appeared to know each other, and they weren’t particularly kind to strangers. Of course, my age doesn’t encourage warmth from younger members of the human race. In this country, older people are scorned rather than revered. Maxwell was our bartender, and he was polite, attentive, but not very warm. Although, his warmth was awarded to others at the Voyager bar. I ended up buying a nice Chardonnay to take home. I tipped 20% on everything including the wine, but that didn’t appease Maxwell. I was a stranger in a strange land. However, I liked the Voyager, and I will return with expectations for a good drink and nothing more. The Voyager likes its locals to be between 25 and 38. Although I don’t fit the demographic, this is a cool place for Bay View and particularly K.K.“

“Somehow I haven't been inside the original Zaffiro's in years. I love being able to get it at the movies, but I've been annoyed that I'm not in their delivery zone. Nothing has changed in the interior - possibly ever. This is a straight up old school Wisconsin tavern with a small dining room on the side. Service was very friendly. The place was packed with people waiting in line to be seated or to pick up to go orders. The pizza was predictably great - slightly charred cracker crust, plenty of toppings, good sauce proportion. We had three different types at the table and everyone was happy. Why four stars? Getting the food on our table took a really, really long time. Still a classic though.“
