“You know what they say about first impressions, right? This place!!! Wow!!! To say I was impressed from the moment I walked in would be an understatement. From The smiling Hostess, to the table services… and then wait for it….. the FOOD!!!!! Outstanding, delicious, like yes, I am raving about this place. Ms. Freda was amazing from start to finish. I had #16! The white rice and beans, with the chicharrones, a thinly cut steak, a sausage chorizo, salad, plantains, and a taste of the yuca frita. OH MY OH MY OH MY!!! My hope really is that this place makes it for years to come and expands to other parts of the city! The design of the place has a vibe that invites you in to stay awhile. To enjoy the flavors of the food entries offered. Each one I have to imagine just as good as what I had. This being my first time there I left with a happy heart and a happy tummy! With a mind made up that I will be back! For more of this delicious and wonderful experience! I invite you to come. You won’t be disappointed! I promise!“

“For the Pope people who don't live in Milwaukee or haven't lived in Milwaukee. You just have to stop at kopp's and have the best double cheeseburger and fried onions you've ever had in your entire life. You asked me how do I know? Because I've been coming here since the '70s and you know it's good when the grease is running down your face along with the onions and cheese. Note: The burger is the size of your face. Just saying. YummmO!😂“

“Just had lunch at Vier North. Everything we had was delicious and the service was great. Try the pulled pork sliders, some of the best I've had in the area.“

“They have some of the best food around,. Everytime I go there, it's a service with a smile.“

“Great breakfast! Great portions too!“

“This "hole in the wall" bar is a must stop. I love visiting bars like this because of the community they provide. I was welcomed by the locals and had great conversation through my visit.The area is out in the country and can be tricky to find. Once I arrived, there was plenty of street parking as well as a lot in the back The inside was charming with a vintage vibe. Drinks were strong and their menu is lengthy. I ordered a cup of the soup which was styled after the Reuben sandwich. The corned beef was excellent. The soup is creamy and flavorful. I have tried to stop by again but they are only open Tuesday through Thursday. I wish I had checked the menu it because the reviews online show a fish fry but I'm not sure if that's available daily since they're closed on Friday? I hope you find out soon!“

“Great experience first time dining here the building is nice and clean staff was attentive and friendly to top it off the food was delicious and amazing I will definitely be a regular customer here“

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

“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“

“Just had the best breakfast at Ted’s Ice Cream & Restaurant! If you in the area of 62nd & North you have to try it! Excellent Eggs Benedict and huge strawberry covered pancakes! You can see why they have been in business since 1941.“

“i love the store and the owner is like a mom to me also the employees are like family fr its like a store i would go to for the rest of my life chicken is very good and cripsy everything about this store is good and nice it stays clean they make sure the people they serve are satisfied with anything 🫶🏾“

“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.“

“I loved them when they were in Glendale, glad they’re now in Thiensville. This restaurant is so welcome and inviting. I’ve eaten there 3 times so far and plan many more. Two notes. 1.) I had duck sausage at the Glendale location many years ago. I’d love to see it return, even limited. 2.) Your fries are great. I’m looking for a suitable replacement for baaree fries after they closed. You need sour cream/chive dipping sauce for them.“

“I was visiting Milwaukee last fall. Im from Houston and I think about your queso and tacos all the time. High praise from a Texan ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Five star experience. The food was reasonably priced and top notch quality. I really like the interior also. Highly recommend“

“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!“

“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.“

“Peaceful, healing, nurturing. A massage at Nourish always renews my body and soul! Thank you, Melissa!“

“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.“

“To start, our server Harry was ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL! We had a table of 9 show up unannounced and we were promptly sat, all together! Our food was amazing! The environment was so inviting and comforting! Overall it was a great experience!“

“This is my first time in the city and I’ll tell you right now that saint Bibiana’s was the best introduction to the city I could have ever had, I was greeted by a bar tender named joy that was the upmost outstanding bar tender I have ever came in contact with !!! Made me feel like I was at home! Definitely recommend to everyone in the area!!“

“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!“

“I have been going to RealChili since the 1960’s.
Just this week I ate there 2 days in a row. My all time “days I a row”? Six. If I were given a “last supper” request it would be a bowl of RealChili and a hamburger from Solly’s. But there is no death penalty in Wisconsin so I can have as many “Last Suppers” as I want. Those would be The Last Suppers to die for (figuratively speaking)“

“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!!!!!!“
