Best Open Kitchen Restaurants in Milwaukee

This was one of the best tasting menus we have experienced. We have enjoyed many Michelin starred and James Beard awarded restaurants and Birch is now one of our absolute favorites. Incredible value for a phenomenal meal. Sit at the chef’s counter and ask for Catie, her personality, knowledge, and expertise added to the overall ambiance.

The food was excellent! Everything came out in a timely matter and was cooked to perfection. There were a few times where we were searching for our server, but the food runner and bus were on top of it. We did the unlimited tops and will definitely be back

Try the lamb larb—outstanding. Bavette never fails to impress.

Wonderful meal with a great server. He was engaging and attentive. I appreciate that he was around with out being intrusive to the conversation. We enjoyed specialty cocktails and split 3 appetizers (mushroom and polenta, cheese board, beet and goat cheese salad). The rainbow trout was presented beautifully. The ribeye special was large enough to be split. The short rib was tender and flavorful. We were lucky with the last available chocolate cake with espresso ice cream. Highly recommend Morel!

We were celebrating our anniversary and a birthday. There was a card on our table wishing us a happy anniversary. Our waitress, Kate, was friendly. helpful and knowledgeable. We started with fried calamari, which was prepared perfectly. My husband had the 4-oz filet mignon and I had the starter-size Nantucket scallops and a salad. Everything was beautifully prepared and presented. The view of the lake and the museum completed a perfect celebration event.
