“We chose Hubbard Park Lodge for our wedding ceremony and reception because of its cozy “Wisconsin supper club” atmosphere! It is naturally beautiful and the staff are always friendly. We had the pleasure of working with Chris for our wedding planning process and he made it a breeze! He was extremely helpful, communicative, and quick to reassure us with any questions or concerns. Our guests raved about the food and kindness of the serving staff. Thank you to Chris and the entire Hubbard Park Staff for making our wedding day so memorable! Thank you, Kaylee & Brian“

“I eat out a lot... And as a Chef who's owned 4 restaurants over the years, it honestly isn't often that I'm caught off guard by surprisingly really good food. Megawich is a light hearted & fun concept with silly names, but their sandwiches are no joke!! The balanced flavor & textures absolutely astonished my taste buds! Bold spices & seasoning... perfectly executed meat/cheese/sauce ratio, all on a local Sciortino's fresh baked Italian bread! ... I ordered the Chicken Catcher w Medium Hot spice 🔥 & seasoned fries WOW!... Surprised, would be an understatement. It's a humble, simple, "no frills" sub-sandwich place, but w high quality ingredients & baffling bold flavors. I'm hooked! This is easily my new favorite casual go to!! (+On DoorDash) ...And so I had to meet the owners! Wael & Adham are the nicest, most sincere & kind-hearted brilliant business men I've met in a very long time! I'm excited to call them new friends & of course now a new #WRAMember ...Best wishes to you both in your new business venture. You rock! Cheers Gentlemen, Chef Robert Klemm. #ChefApproved #EgyptianFlavor #SimpleFood #Sandwich #GetHereMKE #MKEFoodie #BradyStreet #RaveReviews @MegawichWI“

“Went for the first time today after reading a friends experience. Really a nice dinner! Very fresh food. Nice flavors. Extremely pleasant hosts! We will go back for sure!“

“This George Webb is outstanding, probably the best one I’ve ever been to. The people running it treat you like family, and you can feel the pride they put into everything they do. The food is fresh and made with care, a big difference from other Webb’s I’ve been to in recent years.

For me, this place is more than just a restaurant…..it’s personal. My grandmother used to take me to George Webb when I was a kid, and she passed away 10 years ago. Sitting here brought back those memories in a way I didn’t expect. The warm hospitality and quality food reminded me of those special times with her.

This George Webb has restored what I always hoped the brand used to be…a place that feels like home.“

“Love the burgers, no change in the almost decade I've been coming. I can't wait to come back and next time I will be getting a burger for the road too!! The Flavor of the Day was Wedding Cake and I love their custard. I would say it's better than Leon's.“

“Ryan and Juan were exemplary people during our time at The New Fashioned. I am extremely happy and pleased with our service today. If there is anything to be said about this place it’s how great the service and energy is. The attentiveness was appreciated. We will be back as a unit and individually.“

“My husband and I dined at Bavette on Saturday evening. Connor was our server and they were fantastic!! I have celiac and they were very attentive to my questions and needs. The food was phenomenal as well. I had the roasted carrot salad and it might be the best salad I ever ate. Thank you for the memorable experience and amazing service!“

“Absolutely amazing, all around! Food, service, everything. Shrimp sweet and delicious. Scallops silky soft and smooth, seared great and so tasty! Bacon wrapped asparagus is killer good. Prime rib sandwich is pillow soft, so flavorful and satisfying. Great garlic and herb butter seasoning on everything. I had a nasty respiratory infection a couple months prior, hadn't been able to taste much of anything for over two months... until coming here. I could taste the amazing flavor cooked into all of our items for the first time since getting sick. This was probably about the most satisfying dining experience I've ever had. Love it and can't wait to go back!!!“

And let's not forget the BLT no lettuce but with fresh basil - OMG, it's a game-changer! Service was top-notch, a solid 10! Slay Away Camino! I'm yours -Orlin“

“Great spot with lots of food choices. I had the chipotle chicken wrap which tasted very fresh and delightfully grilled.
The drink options were very varied and eclectic. I scored a lovely beer from Oregon that I don't usually see out and about and I was pleased by the option.
Overall, a great spot in Milwaukee with an expanded selection of brews and drinks and great fresh food options.“

“This is the best place in all of Milwaukee to grab dinner.“

“Very hospitable and friendly staff. the food is full of flavor that progresses with the meal. The food palate is so complete from start to finish, especially when paired with the right wine or cocktail! I will be back! Bonus, the atmosphere is comfortable, time for a meal and conversation. I can’t recommend this enough, especially if you appreciate quality food, locally sourced food that is home made.“

“Is by far my favorite breakfast/lunch spot! Friendly staff ,great patrons and lots of delicious food!!!!! If you haven’t been is definitely a must! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“We go here all the time and the food is outstanding! Most times are for pickup, but we also eat in from time to time. The owner is there almost every time we go, and he is extremely nice and helpful. There was a mistake in my order one time, he fixed it immediately, which is all you can expect. We all make mistakes.
You have to try the cheese curds! But the burgers are good, lasagna is good, the filet is good, really everything is good!“

“We arrived early and they were able to accommodate my champagne request in the bar. Then they moved us to the dining room to finish and enjoy our meal. Unfortunately, I don't remember the name of our waiter, but she was lovely and knowledgeable. The food was excellent. I highly recommend.“

“Stop #6 of My 2025 Lenten Lunch Fish Fry Tour: Joe’s K Ranch – A Must-Visit Fish Fry Gem!** Located at 4840 S Whitnall Ave, Cudahy, WI 53110 If you're on the hunt for the ultimate Friday Fish Fry experience, Joe’s K Ranch in Cudahy is calling your name—and trust me, you *want* to answer. This spot has quickly soared to the top of my list in 2025, delivering a meal that hits every note: flavor, freshness, and friendly hometown vibes. **Here’s a peek at their fish fry lineup:** - 🥣 **House-made Clam Chowder** – Creamy, hearty, and packed with flavor. $4.58 (cup), $6.58 (bowl), $14.58 (quart) - 🐟 **2-Piece Beer-Battered Cod** – $14.58 (add an extra piece for $4.58) - 🔥 **3-Piece Broiled Cod** – $16.58 - 🐠 **8 oz Walleye** – Battered or pan-fried to golden perfection – $16.58 - 🎩 **Cod Oscar** – A fancier twist on the classic – $18.58 - 🍤 **Grilled Cajun Shrimp** – Zesty, juicy, and a little bit bold – $20.58 Every entrée comes with all the fixings: a warm bread basket, creamy coleslaw, and your choice of fries, baked potato, or—my personal favorite—crispy, golden potato pancakes served with applesauce. Want to elevate your plate? Add sautéed green beans or asparagus for just $2.58. I went with the classic: the 2-piece beer-battered cod. And wow—this is *how* fish fry should be done. The batter was light yet crispy, perfectly clinging to moist, flaky cod. The potato pancakes? A work of art. Crispy edges, soft centers, and just the right balance of savory and sweet with the applesauce. The coleslaw was fresh and flavorful, and the fries were piping hot with a satisfying crunch. The clam chowder deserves a shoutout of its own—rich, creamy, and loaded with tender clams. A must-order. And the service? Outstanding. Warm, welcoming, and genuinely caring. Big shoutout to Chris K and the kitchen crew for serving up what might just be the *best* fish fry of the year so far. Joe’s K Ranch isn’t just a stop on the Fish Fry Tour—it’s a *destination*. Add it to your Wisconsin Fish Fry Bucket List immediately. Whether you're a seasoned fish fry connoisseur or just love a great meal, this one delivers big flavor and even bigger heart.“

“Lobster 🦞 night was so delicious“

“Normally i don't do this, I don't praise people for any reason, truth be told good works deserves appreciation, I won't deny the fact that I'm jealous of your hard work and skills, I'm having today after a long time thankful for the intervention of 💔💔👇👇👇 #drwarnockspellcaster“

“steak was seasoned perfectly. service was ok.“

“We really loved our experience at Highlands Cafe today. We’ve never had a bad experience or food, but today was particularly exceptional as it was the first time we brought our boys (2 years and 11 months). We had promised our 2 year old ice cream with breakfast as where we were originally going to go, they have malts. Much to our surprise they were closed, cue the toddler meltdown 🫠 Highlands cafe to save the day! No wait, they made a “special ice cream drink” right away for our 2 year old (chocolate milk with whip cream and sprinkles) and he could not have been more happy. The food was excellent to boot! And a mimosa and bloody for mom and dad 🥰 We will definitely be back often. Thank you Highlands Cafe for your hospitality, kindness, patience, and grace ❤️🫶“

“Lovely long time diner located in Thurston Woods neighborhood. The Hoppel Poppel is excellent, as are the country fried steak and biscuits and gravy. Polishing off an already big, healthy meal, you can't resist their fresh cinnamon rolls.“

“Put simply - this place is outstanding. Great service great food- highly recommend“

“The chicken was hot and fresh. The only problems that I have is that the chicken doesn't taste the same. One time I ordered and it was more like a cajun seasoning and the next time it was just regular. I prefer the cajun taste. The other problem is with there sides. They don't have a large container and anyone that has seen their small container knows that 2 doesn't equal a large. The small containers aren't even full.“

“We went there late because low options. We were all glad we did.“

“Very good Very good customer service and excellent food“

“Great breakfast! Great portions too!“

“Leaky Leek with the customer service is the best thing that happened to bartender since the ‘99 and 2000’s. If you haven’t stopped into Wall Street Stock Bar (WSTB) on 219 south 2nd street, you’ve done yourself a disservice of experiencing an extraordinary service of a mixologist that can eyeball a perfect taste that will breathe soul & life to the most simple drink that you’ve previously tasted.“

“food and service was good“

“First time here was last Friday, Had the fish fry, and it was takeout, by the time I got home the food was still hot, juicy, and Outstanding!!! The fish was still so hot, and juicy, and still crispy, Hashbrowns so hot I had to wait to eat them, coleslaw, some of the best I have had in a while, I will be going back there again and again!!! Thank you for the soup samples today, your cheese soup is to die for!!!!!!“

“Overall, not bad at all. The cheese sauce was creamy and somewhat rich, but lacked what seemed like (to me) more nuanced, developed cheeses, or a more technical mornay sauce - rather relying heavily on what tasted like Velveeta or American products alongside maybe some dry seasonings, which can be great if you're craving it. Otherwise, the noodles were definitely a bit overcooked.

It can be a bit challenging to find exceptional mac since Fool's Errand closed, but in a pinch, Rod-n-Makk can get the job done.“

“We grabbed a bacon cheeseburger with fries and patty melt with fries along with some Pepsi. I was impressed how well packaged the food and drinks were. The taste was amazing, perfect Well done Zebbs, thank you!“

“Go out to support our future Chefs . The food is really great, coming from students.“
