    Another outstanding experience at Birch, like some of the changes to the menu. Had the hamburger for the first time, and it won't be the last - one of the best around. Hard to believe that with such fine food, they also know how to do fun bar food!

    We enjoyed our first dinner at Birch. We had the chef’s tasting menu and it was delicious. Every course had a surprise and new flavor. It was well paced and just enough food. Definitely be back!

    Food was really good, pretty pricey for what you get. The wine prices are way out of line. Not great wines by the glass and way too expensive.

    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.

    Poached lobster was outstanding. Fennel salad, likewise. Strip steak for two slightly overcooked. Service overall was the best in MKE!
