Restaurants in Wauwatosa

“Hands down my favorite restaurant in the Milwaukee area, and probably anywhere. You can't get better Indian food in Milwaukee; believe me I've tried almost every Indian restaurant in the area and with every one my fiancé and I say "This is really good, but it's not as good as India Garden." Literally everything I've ordered here has been fabulous.”

“Sat at the bar and had a wonderful experience with our bartender/waiter. We ordered one dish from every section of the menu and couldn't be happier. The butternut squash ravioli was definitely the star of the show. The pomegranate made this a dish I will never forget. Next time we plan to sit by the pasta making station to see the fresh pasta being made. Would 100% recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for excellent Italian cuisine.”

“The food was awesome. The quality and the quantity was amazing. It’s an open kitchen restaurant. The restaurant has limited seating space. Lots of vegetarian options. It smells like meat section of the grocery store due to the open kitchen concept and the rest is really good.”

“We have always loved the beer at lionstail. They now have in-house pizza, which is yummy. The staff has definitely gone down hill. We have been going since they opened and never had unfriendly service. Tonight was different. We had a giftcard we just got this past January. It was slightly bent. The bartender couldn’t get it to work and told us to go to Wauwatosa to use it instead. In the plus side the owners are still great and have said they will replace the giftcard for us.”

“Amazing food and great atmosphere!”

“My favorite steak in town…. “Steak au Poivre” can be found at this great French restaurant (French not not haughty) in Wauwatosa. Favorite steak as it tastes great, and presented well. Sliced on an angle and sauced with a red wine black peppercorn reduction, it has just enough char on the outside to balance the medium rare I love inside. Along with taste, I love that it comes with my fav vegetables-haricot vertes and absolutely perfect French fries! So unlike popular steak restaurants, at LaReve you get more than just meat for the list price! Yum + Yay! The desserts? They are as gorgeous as they are delicious! The case is filled with sweet perfection, each one more beautiful than the next! Just so hard to pick which on.! And the macrons are iconic-crisp outside and soft chewy inside, take a few home with you! But what a treat to find a Kir Royale on the menu last night at dinner before a show! I’m sure it’s a direct effect of Emily in Paris Season 3, but maybe I just never noticed it on the menu before! I served these for Christmas ten years ago and when I saw Emily working on an ad campaign, I just knew they’d start to show up on menus soon. Lucky me! Bon Appetite! This place is great for a girls lunch or business lunch, A friends dinner or date night!”

“Staff was very attentive. Food was fantastic. My only complaint is the price, but you certainly get plenty of food for what you pay.”

“Classic Italian done right!”

“Best Mexican food around! Always good service and never disappointed. If you’re in the Area you have to try Romero’s!”

“Delicious food and excellent service”

“Best soul food around in Milwaukee and all around the city ! Definitely hands down the freshest. My food is always hot and fresh! Dressing is the bomb. Fish, yams , Mac , greens is always on point 5 ⭐️”

“Food was phenomenal!! The atmosphere is lacking. A day of touching up paint, stain, chair nicks and deep cleaning would go a long way for minimal cost and effort. You would have thought it would have been done during the COVID-19 shutdown.”

“Chris the bartender is awesome and food was great!”

“Really love this bar but it really is a bummer when I come in and they don’t have 8 beers on draft. This has happened more times in the last month then in the year prior.”

“Came here with a group from work for team building. They were so helpful and friendly. They really helped us with getting set up for our paint night. The drinks are good as well. They have craft cocktails that are artsy themed and taste delicious. The experience overall was a great one and we are already planning our next one here.”

“Nice place, good food, good ambience.

Vegetarian options: They have vegetarian options

Parking: There is free street parking”

“Our server, Alec, was amazing. He was funny and attentive. I was meeting a friend and gave us time to chat without feeling rushed. I'd eat out more if all servers were like him!”

“Waot is this a whole foods or a bar. I was confused and thought it was a lie but there is in fact a bar in whole foods and its good.Good beer cheap. Staff is nice. There are lots hippies.”

“Good food and fast service”

“Food was so delicious, ambiance was beautiful. Our waitress was super sweet and attentive. I enjoyed my birthday dinner here last night. Wonderful date night experience. Thank you for the hospitality. Highly recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Hands down the best place for fun and family! We enjoyed all of the amazing food from the wings to the burgers!! Christine is the BEST server of all times! She had the patience of a saint with my autistic sons indecisiveness and ticks. The atmosphere is so uplifting and fun. We had the best family night here and plan to come back and make it one of our regular spots. Thank Dave and Busters for a great evening.”

“Parking: We were here for a funeral repass. The staff was so helpful, kind, caring & attentive that it made the whole day a "celebration of life!" The one who wasbeing remembered would have loved it! The drinks were strong, food was delicious & the service amazing! We are so glad you are a
still in business!

Kid-friendliness: Decorations were entertaining!”

“This is always my go to spot when I crave a seafood boil. I stopped in for some today and everything went well. My only concern as a customer was that the waitress made me feel obligated to tip right away. She help me pack my bag and before I was able to even look at my amount she open by receipt book and pointed to the percentages of the tip and asked me “which one will I be doing today” to me that’s very rude what if I didn’t want to tip? Of course tipping plays a part but as I watch other customers get done I did not see her do that to any one else but me . Please talk to your associates about that.”

“Food and services was great definitely going again”

“Wanted to shout out Adonis! Great customer service. I really hope the food is great. If so I'll be returning as Adonis handled the crowd. Hope he sees this post and know he is appreciated !”

“5 stars all around. Good coffee and snacks for the parents and tons of stuff for our 3yo and 1yo to do. the worst part of the visit was telling the kids we had to leave! this place really took care to make sure that all the bases were covered - diaper changing stations, plenty of toys to go around, diapers/wipes if you ran out. will be going back here for sure.”

“Amazing ice cream! Love this for Tosa!”

“Try the burger! It’s delicious!!”

“Our guests were raving about the food!! Mahalo for the amazing hospitality & food!!”

“Good service, friendly atmosphere and excellent food quality.”

“Got their cheesecake jars to celebrate a birthday and OH MY.. they are so incredibly good. We will be back to try more of their offerings for sure.”

“Such a great surprise when I found this cute little place on a rainy morning when I was an hour early for my doctor appointment and had to kill some time. Great breakfast, perfect spot!”

“Great family feeling. They really go the extra mile. But for me, it just felt like a warm hug if that makes sense! Worth a try for sure. The couple that own it really put their heart and soul into it and it shows. It’s a newer business well worth supporting!”

“My husband and I have been coming to this eatery since it reopened under new ownership with Carlos who had formerly been the cook at the North Avenue Grill for several years. Though we will not be returning customers to this eatery, it's no reason for me/us to discourage others from eating here. The food is delicious. It's served hot and fresh. And we also prefer to do business with small businesses such as the Midtown Grill. But on our last recent visit, and this was not the first mishap, my food was not served as I had ordered, but I didn't complain. On this last visit, I didn't complain either, but I did exclaim to our wait person that I was unhappy with my platter. The Huevo Ranchero eggs were, and I had asked for two, instead of the three, overcooked, and it was too salty for me to enjoy. Well, as I watched the wait person walk away, I noted that the server engaged the cooks re: my food and from their body language it was obvious that my constructive critique was not received in good form. Shoulders were shrugged, and this implied to me that they didn't care. This behavior told me everything I needed to know re: my customer satisfaction. This is unfortunate because we enjoyed coming to this laid back eatery. We were provided a discount of which I DID NOT ask for, and I tried to explain to the server that it wasn't necessary, but I was left speaking to their back as they chose to walk away. This behavior towards me was rude and disrespectful. If an establishment does not want need or want your business, the wait staff can certainly help to make or break a customer's spirit.”

“The food is always fresh, the service is quick, and the restaurant is very clean. They do not skimp on the toppings! You get your money's worth. I highly recommend the creamy cashew shrimp and the salmon oasis.”

“im not sure why no one else in Tosa carries pour over filters for v60s but im grateful they do and im always pleased w the drink i grab when i get my filters too”

“I went for a smoothie but what captivated most the great atmosphere, great customer service and beautiful decor.”

“Cannot say enough about the food, the staff and the ambiance. Whether it is pregame, post-game, special night out, day drinking and dining or late night cocktails and dinner after a late flight this place never, ever disappoints. Its been that way for years and hope it never changes.”

“Excellent Italian apricot pastry and espresso.”

“Honestly turmeric latte is my fav ! But they make the best salad in the world I’m like addicted to it !”

“Always very good food and friendly staff.”

“Great Beer selection, even gluten free options!”

“Amazing coffee, and amazing employees! Only coffee I drink! All of our customers now get recommended to check out the Grafton location! They all have had nothing but positive things to say and are grateful for the recommendations!”

“Visiting from out of town and stumbled upon this place. The coffee was great, and my daughter described her scone as "the best thing she ever ate." Also important to note that everyone who works here is friendly and kind. They went above and beyond to help me find a coveted souvenir. Highly recommend.

Kid-friendliness: Gave a free sticker to my daughter and had coloring books and crayons for free on the table”

“Tanya is an exceptional waitress Her hospitality is above and beyond Definitely recommend her to anyone Very impressed”

“Ordered Cashew Chicken and Shrimp Chow Mein for me an my husband. The chicken and sauce was super tasty! Husband liked the shrimp in his chow-mein. Will absolutely order food from here again.”

“Very chill place, but popular. Fast service, excellent barista technique and discipline. Average cost, decent selection and the quality of the items is superb.”

“I didn't have any food, but the menu looks amazing, and the ambiance here is exactly where I'd love to sit and have some great pub food. But, this isn't just a pub. They invested in their interior and it shows. It feels high-class but welcoming as soon as you walk in. On e word came to mind: Quality. They must be very interested in the customer experience. The bartenders were slightly above average in response times and 100% on friendliness. I would recommend this place to anyone and I can't wait to go back for some food!”

“Had my first Suburpia sub in 30 years today with my girlfriend Linda. Just as great as they used to be. Will be back for sure.”

“We love it! Kids love the colors and variety of baked goods! Clean and friendly staff!”

“I’ve been a returning customer for the last 4 years & will continue to recommend Black Twig to everyone who hasn’t tried it yet. The bakery items are always delicious & fresh & the customer service is always perfect.”

“Souper soup!!! Great owner great service”

“Had a great time here with my co workers after a stressfull day, live music, really fun staff, met some cool people, had some drinks and food of which everything was really good.

Parking: Could have better parking as it was super packed and some people seemed to be parking in the areas nearby and walking over”

“All I wanted was two different kinds of bread. They wanted to ring me up before I showed them what I wanted. I had to walk back past the showcase and people had to move so I could try to show them. I left. No bread...”

“This is one of our favorite hangouts, especially in the summer! Great patio with a perfect view of cars and trains to entertain our kids, great service, and great food at super reasonable prices!”

“Fun atmosphere-tons I’d staff! Great on a run/Irish weekend!”

“Me and my boyfriend ordered a pizza and birthday stix tonight around 11pm. Our order's estimated arrival time was 11:41-11:51. We were super hungry so when the food wasn't here at 12am we called to see whats going on. The guy we talked to was super nice and without any hesitation gave us $10 off our order. Then he explained it was only him and the driver in the store and they got hit really hard with orders (he said they received about 15 orders around the same time.) Working in food service ourselves, we completely understood the situation. The pizza arrived about 10 mins later and the food was warm and delicious. The driver also dropped off a pint of free ice cream and a brownie for the wait. We were very surprised with the service.”

“I finally was able to stop at a friend's food truck. I had 3 different tacos, the street corn and my wife had the beef burrito. All of it was excellent! Hats off to you!”

“Great breakfast along with awesome coffee, staff and patrons.”

“Great food. Awesome service. Cool vibe. I enjoyed my experience. Will go back again.”

“Took our 17s club volleyball team here. Lots to do, and lots of laughs. Great way to get off our phones and spend time with each other. 100% recommend brining your family here!”

“Amazing Food!!! The service was great!!! Just all around good no complaints”

“Angela is an amazing bartender! No sugar coating anything. Funny and very very attentive!

The food quality has gone way down here.
The burger was super thin, buns and tots all not the same. We were all so hungry and ate what we had.

I wouldn’t recommend eating here, but the tap Beer selection and the Angela made the stop worth it!

It used to be one of my favorite stops for a quick beer and burger.”

“Fun concept overall but unfortunately the quality of the wine is just okay. They have a handful of bottles available that are decent but they also are massively overpriced. My impression is that this place is mostly oriented towards folks who aren't super into wine so they want to try out lots of different options and see what they like.”

“Great place to bring your dogs.”

“Seriously can’t believe they don’t have a line out the door. We ordered Soup Dumplings, Chicken Dumplings and Pork Dumplings…they were all so yummy…can’t wait to go back.”

“This review is actually for the Grand Hall at Hoyt Park. We had a retirement party there and were so pleased with the room. Nick was so helpful and friendly and went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. I would definitely rent the hall again for other events in the future!”

“I absolutely love their takeout and delivery! When I order delivery through them, it arrives quicker than estimated. They are super efficient and friendly. I have also ordered take out and had a similarly pleasant experience. The food is also the perfect Chinese Takeout you would expect!”

“Bibi is the absolute best! We absolutely adore her! She makes the bar what it is with her Bubbly personality, tasty bloody Mary’s (even late night) and her fresh friendly conversation. The bar chairs could use more options for the disabled customers they have, but overall A++ for customer service and good quality.”

“Excellent vegetarian sandwich. The vegetable soup is also outstanding. Friendly service and delicious food. I can not imagine being disappointed. Definitely recommend.”

“Great spot with a lot of good taps!! Good vibes and a much needed relaxed spot.”

“I love their food and their coffee”

“Fun atmosphere, great spot to watch the Brewers”

“Been coming here for years . I’m a mailman close by so I order ahead for lunch. It’s always delicious. I get the general tso combo with fried rice and egg roll. There is always so much food I get 2 meals out of it.”

“Great discovery of a great pizza place!”

“Food was excellent along with the drinks. It was a bit confusing it being my first time there I didn't know how it worked. On the website it seemed to be a sit down place where you would be waited on. That was not the case, which is fine but there are instructions or guides as to how they operate. I had to ask the staff which worked fine but wish it was more clear. Overall I would go again the food was very tasty and it was very relaxed and calm in the cafe.

Parking: The parking lot is shared with a fitness center so it can be a bit confusing but there are a few spots specifically marked for this location they are just right in the beginning of the parking lot.”

“My new location!!!
Everything about this one is fantastic,fresh and friendly staff !!! Bill-GM and his staff have wonderful customer service best location in the city ! I've never experienced such fresh food from panera like I have at this location ?.. yes they all have fresh food but for some reason this location has been extremely fresh and delicious, I'm a creature of habit so I get my coffee breakfast sandwich,blueberry muffin and if I'm in for lunch I grab a grilled cheese ,a tea and I bounce between 3 of the soups
Chicken with wild rice,chicken noodle or broccoli and cheese a choice that don't disappoint!!! And chocolate chip ? cookies are to die for - did I mention the coffee is always fresh and with the unlimited sip club membership you can have unlimited drinks of soda, hot coffee,ice coffee,hot or cold tea as well as lemonade...overall panera is a great place to sit and eat with the family or friends and just as peaceful to have a meeting!! I hope you'll enjoy this new location as much as myself and my kids...give it a try you will not be disappointed ?”

“Good food great service! Would definitely go back!”

“Friendly staff, great drinks, delicious food. 10/10”

“Love this place perfect for having a me day”

“Had great pre-Christmas Old Fashioneds there tonight. It is the most festive atmosphere you’re going find in the city. Great service on a very busy night.”

“Stoped here on a Sunday night after golfing at Currie. We ordered a drink or two at the Cub Tap. Even though Lalli's was closing.. they happily took our order and cooked us two delicious pizzas to go. HIghly recommended they were very good.”

“The coffee is delicious!! It tastes homemade and they make it the best to your favor. The food tastes homemade as well, it’s a great bite to grab as you continue to shop ?”

“We love stopping in for coffee & their amazing bakery! Their soup is so delicious & they make a variety of breakfast items oatmeal/sandwiches/homemade granola and all sorts of drinks. This place is a must visit (and visit often)!”

“Gigi’s cupcakes was one of my favorite parts of my whole wedding. Not only was my cake exactly what I wanted aesthetically but all of the cakes provided were SO good. My main concern was dry cakes and gigis cakes stay good even DAYSS later. Also, customer service was the best. Kristine was so easy to work with and executed everything flawlessly, 10/10 so happy with this choice. THANK YOU.”

“Service was a bit lengthy but I ordered a wrap and did they pile on the chicken!! That wrap was so full that they had difficulty wrapping it. That was lunch for 2 days. Not only that the wrap was good. I ordered #20.The best thing about my visit was there was this elderly guy in line ordering his food. He had a wheelchair like device and he stood up and pointed to his toppings for his sub. The guy in front of him looked over at him and smiled. He told the cashier I'll pay for his meal and said to the guy sir this one's on me. That just made my heart full of joy to see such a moment!!”

“My husband and I used to go here every Friday, and it's our favorite restaurant in Tosa. We've since moved, and Hui's is what we miss the most! Great food, wonderful people. After becoming regulars here, we ended up always being recognized by name, and that just added to how welcoming the place feels. I have never gone to a specific restaurant every week and not gotten tired of it, but every single Friday, I always looked forward to dinner. Dining in or ordering takeout, Hui's is the best place to go for amazing service and wonderful Chinese food!”

“best sub in Milwaukee !!!!”

“After an error in our to go order that resulted in us having to return to this location, the team at Mayfair went above and beyond to make it right and correct our order. Easily the best experience we’ve ever had at a five guys! Compliments to the management staff that was on duty today between 6pm and 8pm in their handling of the situation and their customer service! Will definitely go back to this location. Thanks for a great dining experience!”

“George Webb earns a 5-star rating not just for its classic comfort food but for the incredible people who work there. The staff truly makes every visit feel like home, offering friendly, personalized service that keeps customers coming back. They remember regulars, make newcomers feel welcome, and always have a smile, even during busy hours. Whether you’re grabbing a late-night bite or enjoying a morning coffee, the team at George Webb creates a warm, inviting atmosphere that makes the experience special. Their dedication to service is what truly sets George Webb apart as a beloved local favorite.”

“Went to Hector’s after the Home Show we used to go here often back in the early 2000s and thought we would try it for old times sake Boy it’s even better than we remember!! The margaritas are great and the food is realllly good Tracie had the carny acasda tacos and I had the Salmon with butter garlic tequila caper sauce It was FN spectacular!! We went here for the 1st time in about 1990 and we so impressed that it still rocks like we remember”

“Delicious food, fast & friendly service even with a full house. The mushroom omelet was absolutely amazing as were the pancakes. They aced my mother’s difficult coffee order as well!”

“The most WONDERFUL hearty, breads. Got a FREE loaf for getting their app and another free loaf for my birthday!

Parking: Lot can be tight and a little hard to maneuver.”

“Have been coming here for years and usually stay to get work done. The staff is outstanding! The food and beverages are what I expect from Starbucks. The place gets very busy after the school day, but they are located right next to a high school so that is to be expected. We really appreciate having Starbucks here in the neighborhood!”

“Horrible service my bowl of shrimp scampi was not filled how it was supposed to be there was only one piece of shrimp in it… also the iced coffee I asked for has cold full on it and I asked the lady here pretty sure is the manager if she can fix my drink she didn’t even go back to ask somebody about the cold foam she just said no we don’t do that here after she just looked at the picture and she walked away and rolled her eyes and made a mean comment under her breath”

“Food was delicious! Will be back!”

“Subs are superior to subway by a long shot (not even comparable). The place is ok for fast food place to dine in. The fries were good as I had read online. The price for the meal I felt was high for what’s received. Again it’s not bad but I might go somewhere else before this for my fast food fix. If you want a good sub this is a good option

Wheelchair accessibility: Its possible to access although its longer way”

“Great place great food The prefect taco!”

“Great Happy Hour for food and drinks. 3-5pm for great food specials IN THE BAR and 3-6pm for great drink specials. We’ll done JBS!!!”

“This is my favorite location. The food is consistently better than the other locations and I makes me keep coming back. Bonus points for this location having just the correct amount of slices of pizza available that they are not throwing many out but the ones that they are giving to customers are very hot right out of the oven.”
