    My Brother and I had a Glorious Meal for Christmas Eve, which was a special menu for the night. We started out with the Roasted Apple Meatballs and the Bread Board. Both were excellent! Then we decided to order as a takeaway the Charcuterie Board and two of their Entres for later, (Chicken Pot Pie & Baked Macaroni and Cheese) I know, it was crazy but well worth it. Then my Brother had the Truffle and Mushroom Burger with Truffle Fries and I had the Hot Honey Chicken Sand, and the Chef understood the assignment by using Tender Thigh Meat. I was really impressed with the quality. The prices are a little steep but it's Christmas, so I didn't really mind. All in all, a much tasty evening with impeccable service. Will gladly do this next year, or even perhaps the New Years Eve Dinner coming up in a week? Happy Holidays!

    Most lobby restaurants are not the greatest experience. The Milwaukee, however, was a pleasant surprise. From a gracious hostess to a joyful waitress, to a very, very good meal for the four of us. The only food negative was a relatively bland dressing on the Caesar salad. T”My pappardelle was outstanding and the others felt the risotto, burger and salmon were very fine.
