Mader's Restaurant: what do users think?

Stephanie: I came here with my boyfriend from out of town. We were seated promptly. We had our pics taken by Nick the friendly Valet gent. Our server was mediocre. We were surprised that bread wasn't a staple and we had an upcharge of 2.00 for the 🥨 pretzel bread when the dinner plates were 40 bucks a person. We went here bc it was rated high and we are both of Hermanic descent. I am second generation half Bavarian and Austrian -Irish, while my sweetie is Swiss Irish. Our server could have been more outgoing. But the food, atmosphere,and the greeter and valet were otherwise top notch. We would recommend this destination resteraunt fir sure when in Milwaukee for sure!Parking: We had the sauerbraten and red cabbage. It is outstanding. Paid meter pking or paid valet plenty of pking.

Эрик А: Got to skip school while on a trip to this restaurant. Didn't even try any dishes. Freakin' love this place.Update: the waitress is kinda a hottie ngl.I've arrived again, THE WAITRESS IS FIRE!!! I recommend it to everyone.

Ellen Breithaupt: I started with liver dumpling soup, which was delicious, & much to my surprise my granddaughter loved it! I then had salmon from the “lighter side” of the menu, it was delicious, perfectly prepared & served atop red bell pepper flavored spaetzle.My granddaughter said her chicken fingers & fries were the best she’s ever had!Our major letdown was the Apple strudel. Mader’s desserts have been wonderful in the past. This wasn’t! It was apples wrapped up in phyllo

Dave Maier: The long hallway in the back of the restaurant has pictures of all the celebrities that have dined there. Pretty fun to look at.I HIGHLY recommend Maders

Swingin' Door Exchange: what do users think?

Maggie Wampole: Kid-friendliness: My kids enjoyed the provided board games while we waited for our lunch!Recommended dishes Soup, Chop …

Dave Maier: Действительно веселый ресторан/бар. Мы добрались до ресторана в середине дня, и он был полностью забит. Обычно я бы честно ушел... но мои друзья очень хотели здесь поесть, поэтому я неохотно согласился остаться. Мы сели через 10 минут! Я был шокирован тем, насколько быстро это произошло. Я бы предположил, что это заняло бы час. В любом случае, они сразу же приняли наш заказ, и еда была быстрой и превосходной. У меня был салат с почерневшей рыбой. ОТЛИЧНЫЙ! Я рекомендую это наверняка. Не знаю, когда он будет менее занят, если вообще когда-либо... но стоит подождать, если придется.

Kylie Wooldridge: Я зашел вчера вечером с мамой и лучшим другом перед тем, как посмотреть комедийное шоу в Риверсайде. Мы приехали рано, потому что ожидали приличного времени ожидания. Чарли встретил нас у двери и был очень дружелюбен. Он извинился, что ожидание будет 30-минутным, как мы и ожидали, и спросил нас о том, какое шоу мы смотрим, и отпустил несколько шуток. Наш стол был готов через 15 минут, и Дэниел был нашим официантом. Кроме того, очень дружелюбный и представительный. Когда я пошел заказывать напиток, он сообщил мне, что в данный момент его у них нет, но у него было несколько других вариантов, готовых предложить, и он действительно позаботился о том, чтобы я получил что-то близкое к тому, что я хотел заказать. Еда из ямы вышла быстро и была вкусной. Дэниел продолжал проверять, и когда мы пошли заказывать напитки без десерта, он был готов позаботиться о том, чтобы мы получили напитки, которыми мы были бы довольны. Когда мы уходили, оба были очень дружелюбны и попрощались, сказав, что надеются, что мы вернемся, чтобы рассказать им о шоу. Мы были очень счастливы и впечатлены. Трое из нас сказали, что хотели бы вернуться сюда снова, если вернемся в этот район на еще одно шоу. Огромное спасибо Чарли и Дэниелу за прекрасную ночь, проведенную вчера вечером.

Bob Scheers: was an absolute professional but also a very kind person who didn't bother to tell us a bit more about Milwaukee, about the beers they have, about what food might be the best for us...If you visit Milwaukee, visit Mason Street Grill!

Jezzie O: Right off the bat... friendly attentative hosteses. The restaurant was beautiful. Great bread and sparkling waterr upon request. The drinks were tasty and robust.

Story Hill BKC: what do users think?

Bethany Blount: Quick Update: It's still delicious! I had more restraint than below, but I also came hungrier. They have several delightful crêpe options this season. I wish I could afford to try them all!Absolutely delish! We went for a little brunch and ended up splurging on a three course meal. I made the joke when ordering dessert that I would have to be wheeled out of the restaurant. It was all so good though that my willpower abandoned me. I would highly recommend!

Dave Dunn: 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.

Bel: I had a delicious cup of coffee and ordered the following: Mushroom and spinach waffle. Bread pudding waffle with mushroom duxelle, broccolini, salad, feta, truffle oil, poached eggs and smoked shallot marmalade. Looks great....however, my waffle was burned and BLACK on the bottom. Also one egg was hard in the center, not poached. Not inedible, but it could have been an amazing dish if they hadn't plated the burned waffle. The accompanying salad had a very good dressing....love breakfast with some salad on the plate. Great atmosphere and service. I'll be back.

The Capital Grille: what do users think?

Joseph Henderson: Capital Grill is always one of my favorites. I love the service but for some reason I have been a little disappointed in their food. This round had lobster bisque and salmon with couscous. The lobster bisque was amazing. The salmon and couscous lacked flavor and salt. I know salt is objective but even when added it lacked other flavors. I am providing a great review because service is always top notch.

Ray Tyers: Fantastic Ribeye 22 oz of heaven. Our server, Angel, was perfectly attuned to our needs and kept us well lubricatedDefinitely a must go

Harbor House: what do users think?

Jessica: I live in the far north suburbs in Illinois and sometimes visit the Harbor House when I'm in the area. I have tried a few different entrees and plan on ordering a different dish each visit.Their Crispy Pork Belly appetizer is delicious. There's a nice, satisfying crunch to the pork belly skin and the meat itself is tender. The Hudson Canyon Sea Scallops entree comes with four perfectly seared sea scallops thoughtfully accompanied with salmon roe, which makes the flavors come together and pop – both literally and metaphorically. I've also had the Rainbow Trout entree, which was very fresh.It's refreshing to see that Harbor House offers two kinds of lobster rolls: Main-Style and Connecticut-Style. I prefer Connecticut-Style, so that's what I ordered at Harbor House. The kitchen is generous with the amount of lobster meat. The toasted Brioche bun is so good you can eat it on its own. I don't think Harbor House uses Maine lobster, but I wish they do because Maine lobster is still hands down by far the best tasting lobster because of it's naturally sweet flavor profile.Customer service at Harbor House is also outstanding. The hostess is always very friendly. Even though we didn't exchange eye contact as I was leaving the restaurant, the hostess wished me a good evening, which led me to turn around and wish her the same.I wasn't sure whether to rate the Harbor House 4 or 5 stars because the food is overly salty. The heavy salt content reacts with the acidity of some of their dishes and made my mouth tingle. That's my only issue with the food at Harbor House, but it doesn't really stop me from visiting again when I'm in the area. 5 stars anyway.

Marilyn Markowski: Замечательные впечатления, отличная еда и отличный сервисПарковка: Камердинер очень разумен, они очень бережно относятся к вашему автомобилю.

Carnevor: what do users think?

Tori Tomlin: Carnevor is an absolute gem for steak lovers! Their steaks are hands down one of the best I've ever tasted. Cooked to perfection, each bite was a delight. The ambiance is upscale yet inviting, making it the perfect spot for a special occasion. The service was impeccable, with knowledgeable staff ensuring every detail of our dining experience was perfect. If you're in the mood for top-quality steak, Carnevor is the place to be!

Heath Parrott: and found another table for us to enjoy our dinner. The service assistant staff was quick, efficient and professional. Our steaks were cooked properly and well seasoned. Even if you are full - at least split a desert. We will go back.

SafeHouse: what do users think?

Cheyito: Go strictly for the atmosphere, lots to see and experience. Fun from the start as you have to locate the entrance. The entrance is now manned, as before you had to figure how to get in. Camera there and people watching you inside fumble around. This WAS fun. The person now will ask you for the password so get it unless you want to prove you are not a double agent by doing a task. If ever possible get the booth that revolves so you can make a quick getaway if there ever is any KGB danger. The food is unique but you can't be a picky eater. The flavor of the burgers is okay, the brisket was mid level. The price and portions of food are disproportionate. The servers are friendly but seemed rushed and rushed to get you out.

Zarletti: what do users think?

Edward Kutz: was terrific all evening, with great timing. All 10 of us we delighted with our meals. Thank you so much for a great evening!

Steve DiGregorio: First time here from out of town, i sat at the bar for dinner as I was dining alone. The bar tender was very friendly, attentive and had some good suggestions on the menu. I ended up starting with the mussels which were excellent, the sauce was great to dip the warm bread in. The Carbonara was good as well, I thought the portion size was good, in house made pasta, cooked slightly al denté which is exactly how it should be. Very nice. The wine selection is good, with plenty of great Italian wines to choose from, and even wines by the glass had a nice selection. It was a pleasant experience. I will be back.

Mern: Zarletti’s is always food prepared well. Two criticisms exist each time I visit. First is that presented with specials of the day prices should be included or expressed by the server. A diner shouldn’t have to ask. It’s uncomfortable for all concerned and unnecessary.The second relates to GF. Having a GF option available for pasta is very nice. But a $4 addition to the price for something that is not preferential but necessary is a slap in the face even if they do make their own. It says “we don’t really want to do it, but if you insist we will.” As GF pasta is never worth the calories, the added cost makes this menu option easy to pass up.Unfortunately then secondo options as backup are minimal. Having eaten my way around Italy I am aware that flour is not necessary to this portion of an Italian meal. And yet it is at Zarletti’s. Having to eat GF, and having eaten here four times, I have tried all that is possible with two of those choices being specials. Eating the special of the day can possibly be GF but with prices not listed, there’s a 50/50 chance of being costly and prohibitive so the check can be a surprise if you don’t ask the uncomfortable and obvious question. What is bothersome though is that many of the secondo options could easily be GF as would exist in Italy but there is no desire to make it so. So what remains is a sense that GF is not welcome.When all is considered, Zarletti’s is great food. If you’re GF and plan to eat here often your dining options are limited and possibly more costly.Atmosphere rec’d 3 stars because the music is too loud for the small space and the selection doesn’t add to ambiance but is rather an annoyance.

Sanford: what do users think?

Billy Harlow: Wonderful food Cozy atmosphere, very good for romantic evenings. The wife and I will definitely be going here again.Recommended dishes …

Scott V: Omylort was this good.We chose the 7 course tasting with pairing and could not have been more pleased.Of all the dishes the scallop was probably my favorite for one simple reason... I liked it. Normally I will not eat scallops because the texture or flavor or both are a turn off, but not with these. These had enough firmness to not be jell-o-ie, yet still weren't tough. They didn't have a 'dirty' flavor that I often experience, but had a very nice caramel crisp from being seared. Talking to our waiter, it turns out they get them "dry packed" and that maintains the freshness as though straight off the boat.Whatever the reason, WOW.Now for what was my real favorite turned out to be the goose sausage and duck, although personal preference is that the duck be just slightly more cooked, that did not take away from the dish.Every bit of love a chef could put into their profession went into this meal. Were it proper to give a huge to the person that pleased the tastes this well, I'd go back just to give a firm embrace of thanks.Amazing, thank you.

Frank Jenkins: Decent.

Amanda Hoyer: New Year’s Eve dinner at the Original did not disappoint!The prix fixe menu was perfection with each course building on the next until the finale: dessert: scratch carmel sauce, melt in your mouth truffle and the perfect poached pair with blue cheese. Did I mention the cocktails? Fantastic! Thank you for making the close of 2023 a delish culinary memory!!

Milwaukee ChopHouse: what do users think?

Amy Evans Coldwell Banker Realty: Great delicious and amazing service best restaurant in Milwaukee. The food is amazing. You’ve got to make a reservation and have amazing food the Milwaukee Cop House’s own select aged steak. Yummy!! Everything that you order on the menu is fabulous and provides great enjoyment. Have personally dined at Milwaukee Cop House on many occasions this past year and this year too. Great place to have dinner before your Bucks game or other events in Downtown Milwaukee.

James Heitmann: My friend and I booked a last minute reservation for New Years Eve and let me tell you we were NOT disappointed! The restaurant itself really gives you that boogie fantasy. Our server Josue was phenomenal. He really gave us great recommendations on the menu. My friend and I both agreed our filet was the bets we have ever had. The meat was like butter it was so soft and tender. We also did the trio sides which was a great way to try a variety of side dishes. Dessert was also delicious! We had the Carmel cheesecake. We definitely will come back for future events!

Motor Bar and Restaurant: what do users think?

WI Biker: The MOTOR bar is one of our favorites, especially when there are Harley Davidson events going on.FoodThe food here has great flavor and the menu does have a dynamic range of specials along with good regular offerings. The cajun chicken sandwich is one of my absolute favorites that I get on a regular basis. It's really good and always well made. The burgers have always been good too so if you are going for beef instead of chicken it's a good choice on that range. We also really like the buffalo wings that have a decent amount of heat and the wings themselves are good sized too.ServiceThe employees have always been great and they give great service. Very friendly and attentive throughout the meal.

Miya Yi: Pros.1. Delicious foods2. Good ambienceCons.1. Loud2. The server forgot my orders.

Wi Antech: Had Friday night dinner with my family which included 4 children. The area we sat in was large enough to handle our group of 7 where I could interact and talk with everyone. The kids received a drink in a thin plastic cup which was decorated with child friendly HD designs and a cute bendy straw. Their food smelled and looked amazing. Most importantly they finished their two hamburger sliders and most of the fries which were served on frisbees! My fish fry was delicious, the corn bread amazing and coleslaw great. My daughter had the Caesar salad and my son in law the wings. Marah, our waitress was very attentive and on the spot with our requests and interacting with the kids. Great job Marah!! We’ll be back.

Brandon Harris: Ich war mein ganzes Leben lang Kellnerin und Barkeeperin und halte mich für ziemlich gut in meinem Job, aber Vanessa könnte mich im Stich lassen. Sie hat mir einen Service geboten, den ich noch nie erlebt habe. Sie war schnell, freundlich und kannte sich äußerst gut mit der Speisekarte aus. Ich hatte die Brisket-Nachos, die ziemlich anständig waren, aber der Service war definitiv das, was dieses Erlebnis zu einem 5-Sterne-Erlebnis machte. Bitten Sie darum, in ihrer Abteilung Platz zu nehmen, wenn Sie hier reinkommen, vertrauen Sie mir.

Renee Pfeiffer: Ich habe heute mein Mittagessen bei Motor genossen! Das Bruststück war so gut – es war so zart und hatte so viel Geschmack. Unsere Kellnerin Vanessa kannte sich nicht nur gut mit der Speisekarte aus, sondern machte auch unser erstes Mal dort unvergesslich! Sie ist eine wertvolle Bereicherung für Ihr Unternehmen und ich werde auf jeden Fall wiederkommen, um sie zu besuchen!

james lessard: Unser Kellner war wirklich sympathisch und nett!! Toller Sinn für Humor und schien wirklich etwas über Milwaukee zu wissen! Wir waren zu Besuch bei der Familie und mussten das Harley Museum besuchen!!Vanessa war wirklich ein Pluspunkt für unseren Besuch!! Wir haben auch das Essen und die Getränke genossen! Alle hatten eine tolle Zeit!

Jebadiah „Jeb“ Hanson: Sie bekamen wirklich gutes Essen und sehr vernünftige Preise für ihre GetränkeKinderfreundlichkeit: Alles, was mit Harley zu tun hat, ist gut, dass es sich um eine Maschine aus amerikanischer Produktion handelt

Timothy Rose: and lastly, thank you to the valet parking attendant for being so speedy and gracious. Go.

Joshua Guiles: I was there for a dinner event. The decor and atmosphere was immaculate! The room we were in had so much natural light, I think I enjoyed it more than most.I had the filet, it was 10/10.Sarah was one of the servers that took care of us and she was incredible.This place is definitely swanky. Bringing a date here will definitely impress.You can also see the lake from the room in the photos.There was also valet parking.

Cathy Gorski: This was a birthday treat for me. Hadn't had a "Wow!"meal in awhile. This meal had many Wows. Everything was really good. Staff was friendly, helpful and efficient. Food was so good. And with rewards we had $25 off a bottle of wine. They recognized my birthday with a pretty and delicious dessert. Atmosphere was quiet and pleasant. All around really nice experience.

Weston Brice (Bricebox): Full disclosure: I am a Bartolotta employee. Also, everything here is fantastic! Cocktails are inventive yet familiar, the food is excellent and innovative. This is the spot to show off Milwaukee and Bartolotta to a visiting guest.Kid-friendliness: Please don't

Jillian Faye: We celebrated my birthday here last weekend and everything was phenomenal! Our server Sarah and her assistant Zoe were fantastic! They both were very attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. The cocktails were delicious! Our appetizer and our 3 course dinner were to die for! We were so stuffed by the end of our dining experience! We will definitely be back for another indulgent evening!Parking: We had no issue finding free street parking almost immediately on a Friday night around 7:30pm.

Siena: Had a lovely time there on New Year’s Eve. Dinner was delicious! Black truffle ravioli was great. Veal soup wasn’t what we expected but it was okay. Scallops is so far the best of all the restaurants I’ve been to! The filet mignon was overcooked when I cut it open but they quickly had it remade and It was cooked perfectly the second time. We loved both dessert, thought chocolate would be really heavy and dense but it melted in your mouth right away and the flavor and sweetness were just perfect for us. Overall it was a great experience. We stayed for the party and really enjoyed our time there. Will be going back to try their regular menu for sure!

Braise Restaurant & Culinary School: what do users think?

Morgan S: Stopped in at Braise last night with a friend for the 3-course dinner! You won’t find better ingredients or a better deal. It is truly a one of a kind dining experience and the food is AMAZING—not to mention generously portioned. From start to finish you get a choice between two delicious appetizers, two main course items, and choice between two desserts. This was my second time to Braise and I look forward to coming back. I had the mushroom risotto and highly recommend it. The waitstaff and bartenders are very friendly and add to the overall experience. Perfect for date night with the hubby, or drinks with your girlfriends!

Angela Zuniga: Great service every time we dine in! Perfect date night or even our larger girls nights out are always a hit when we dine at Braise. The waitstaff makes sure we are well taken care of and and is knowledgeable about the food they are serving. They accommodate our many dietary restrictions and the food is always fresh and delicious! Easily the best date night spot in Milwaukee. A must visit.

Liz Fiene: First time having Xiao long bao and I have never had anything like this before! It was my favorite item we tried of the night, would definitely have again if it appeared back on the menu. I love that the ingredients are local and the menu rotates to bring me out of my comfort zone and try new things. Since m still exploring and determining what flavors I like/don’t like, I enjoy that the bartenders can make me something with just some personal input and some questions. I’ve only been here during the winter season but I am looking forward to patio season and I hope they have the patio/rooftop open in addition to their normal seating once summer hits! I just signed up for their tamales cooking class in May and I am looking forward to seeing this side of the restaurant next!

Megan Fiene: I love coming to Braise and eating in the bar area. Their booths and candle lights give a cozy atmosphere and can make a perfect date night. Sit at the bar to enjoy fun conversations and witness Flan and Evan crafting up the amazing cocktails behind the bar. Even if you don’t see a drink on the menu that catches your eyes, they can make anything you are feeling or give them the freedom to surprise you with a “dealers choice” cocktail. I love that the food menu changes every few weeks, one of the many reasons I keep coming back!Vegetarian options: They update their menu often and always mark if the food is vegetarian, vegan, and gluten free n

Ingrid Davis: I absolutely cannot express how AMAZING Braise Restaurant & Culinary School was for our reception. I cannot say enough wonderful things about this venue. We reserved the upstairs room, including the outdoor space that provided a beautiful view of the city.Becky Ayala, the restaurant manager, was a dream to work with. She was responsive to my emails and detail-oriented, which was so helpful during the reception planning process.The beautifully decorated room dazzled guests the moment they arrived at Braise and established the vibe for the rest of the room’s design. We also loved having the outdoor space, which was perfectly decorated, with floral arrangements placed everywhere. We opted for a family-style dinner. Locally sourced seasonal food inspired the menu of Mixed Green Salad, Lemon Risotto, Montreal Chicken and Soy Braised Beef. The food was delicious and the two wedding cocktails, Crazy Dave’s Old Fashioned and Rhubarb Lemonade were wonderful and flavorful. Our waiter, Kira and David, our bartender, were exceptional and on top of everything. The timing of the dishes was efficiently paced to allow sufficient time in between dishes.Everything was superb, and our guests raved about the venue and the food. I cannot recommend Becky and her team highly enough. You will not regret booking your venue in Braise.

Chrissi Quinn: We had our wedding dinner here and the catering was phenomenal. We booked out the first floor and the split between cocktails in the bar area and dinner in the dining room was a nice little change of setting. The braised beef, pork buns, and chocolate mouse were hits, guests even took leftovers home. The lemon curd wedding cake made by the pastry chefs was great and beautifully but tastefully decorated. I hope we can come back for all our anniversaries.Wheelchair accessibility: My significant other's mom is in an electric wheelchair and it was easy for her to get in and navigate around the first floor.

Five O'Clock Steakhouse: what do users think?

Erick García: Best place ever with the best service... recommended 100% but people as well should show some love to the security guard and bless him with something you know... him as the valet guy are both taking care of us and our properties just saying but other than that the best place in Wisconsin love it...

Michael Allen: Service and vibe, this place has both and more, we felt like I stepped back in time. I rarely order prime rib and stick with traditional steak cuts but this prime rib was excellent. My girl had the bacon wrapped filet cooked perfect. Creamed spinach yes please, mash potatoes excellent. Really good Tiramisu with a surprisingly decent espresso.Don’t forget the great cocktails and ask for Faye!
