Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Whitefish Bay

Jack Pandl’s is a classic and I’m so happy it’s still around! The atmosphere is quite lovely and the place is super charming. The wait staff was very attentive, was well-versed in the menu and could make recommendations, and very pleasant. Food was good and portions were large enough that three out of four diners had leftovers. We treated ourselves to dessert, including the strawberry schaum torte, chocolate mousse pie, and apple strudel. The chocolate mousse was the best and I highly recommend. The others were good, but the mousse stood out. I thought the prices were reasonable for what we ordered and look forward to going back soon. 

Everything was perfect. The service was impeccable and the food was awe-inspiring. The grilled honey nut squash was excellent as was the focaccia and ricotta. The ricotta filled pasta was amazing!! We had the contamar fish and the walleye and we were blown away. I love that the chef uses local fish instead of flying in some Chilean Seabass or something. It was all so delicious. I can’t wait to go back. After living in San Francisco for 18 years, I moved to Milwaukee recently. I was a little worried about the culinary scene, but Birch is absolutely at the top of the restaurant game in every way. They would fit right in and even stand out in SF or Napa.

Wonderful anniversary dinner! Lovely setting, delicious, beautifully presented and excellently prepared food. Attentive and helpful service. We can’t wait to return!

The service and food were great, will definitely go back.

Our group had a wonderful experience at the neck. Irving was awesome, the food delicious, the atmosphere festive. We had a relaxed luncheon, never seemed rushed. Thank you, thank you thank you we will be back many many times!
