“Recently had lunch here after a Dr's appointment - for the first time. The prices are reasonable. It was very busy. we were seated quickly but it was a long wait to get our food. We ordered breakfast- and most of the food was good. But I had a chicken breast with my eggs and potatoes- it tasted horrible. When I spoke to the waitress about it she informed me that the restaurant marinades the chicken in pickle juice before frying. I feel like thats something you should tell people in advance.“

“We came here for a team dinner after a conference in the convention center. They were able to accommodate a large party with only a little over a week’s notice. It was an incredible meal with exceptional service and a great selection of wines and beers. I wish I had a reason to return to Milwaukee soon just to revisit this place.“

“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!!!“

“My 92 y/o aunt treated us at the plaza today. Great food and amazing service from chef Peter and crew. Thank you so much for the memorable experience“

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.“

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

“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.“

“Good food, good beer and friendly staff. Makes for a nose easy stop after you tour the Harley museum“

“During a visit to the area a group of us went to this wonderful cafe and bar for lunch. The server was attentive and friendly. The hand cut chips were fried to perfection and the bleu cheese dip was good, although a little light on blue cheese pieces. I would enjoyed the sesame chicken pita, the portion size was good as was the flavor and it paired well with the crunchy Asian slaw.

If you are in the area, you should give Lulu's a try!“

“Great food at a great price. Custard!!!!“

“Staff is always friendly and welcoming. Our meals are always delicious no matter what we select, burgers, fish, brunch. Great selection of options. Love the outdoor patio.“

“Very clean place. Atmosphere amazing, servers were very helpful. My first time here and
They were great in explaining everything. Place was empty when we arrived within 30
Min it was full. Our food was delicious!
Butter chicken delicious.
65 chicken spicy but delicious
Dum biryanis chicken delicious . Visit them ! You will not regret it“

“The food was good, but they have a take out charge that there's no signage for and it's automatically done. To say the least, I was surprised if I had been informed before I had ordered, I may have decided to stay. Now I'll ask to see if there's a charge and if there is. I won't get takeout from them again.“

“Ordered the Pulled Pork Mac and Cheese and it was delicious! I was also lucky enough to be their first customer! Congratulations to you and wish you the best!“

“Best Breakfast Pizza ever, period. i dream that some day they sell it in stores. As of now, you can just get it at the South Shore farmer's market.“

“was there yesterday for the st patrick's day parade. Great experience till we moved in side. the waitress was more concerned about her getting tips and wasnt polite when I asked to turn up a game that was on. she spent more time changing our check then getting two beers. we got the check before the beer and was forced out by her racism and anger towrds a white couple. if the roles where reversed she would be up and arms. so we got forced to leave not by words by actions. we got disappointed i wouldn't recommend going there for an event like a parade at least not in side the out side tables where hard to sit in and the benches where if not loose then broken. dont expect out side service you hve to go inside to order and pick up everything. the bartender was spot of if you want a shot and a beer. the inside service sucked“

“The atmosphere was great! Food and cocktails were delicious! Staff very nice“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Saint Bibiana is one of my favorite spots! The drinks are always amazing, the staff is friendly, and the atmosphere is incredible.

The DJs are honestly the main reason I keep coming back, they always bring the best energy and make every visit so much fun. Please never get rid of the DJs and keep bringing them back! They’re a huge part of what makes this place special.

Can’t wait to come back! 🎶🍸✨“

“Was never to Oscars before. I didn't expect that I'd be eating the greatest burger I've had in my Life. Meat was thick and juicy. Bun was clean and soft. Onion rings were hot with a firm dense crust. My friend and I were almost in disbelief. Staff was incredibly polite. Clientele, (place was packed), were well-mannered. I'll definitely be back. 10/10“
