    The overall price for the quantity of the food was too much for the portion sizes. The food was tasty when it arrived but some of our dishes felt like they were sitting for a little bit before arriving. The waiter seemed like he didn’t want to be there or at least serving us, wasn’t very personable. The atmosphere was nice and quaint but as more guests arrived it was hard to hear.

    While we enjoyed the atmosphere and the service was excellent, the size of the meat options did not align with the cost. I have been to other small plate restaurants but all of the meat options were way overpriced. At most they should have been $15. The duck confit portion was so tiny for $23. The vegetable sides were much more appropriate to the cost. If you go, just be prepared to spend $$$ or leave still wanting more.

    Best restaurant in Milwaukee for taste and unique food. Noise level high which makes it hard to have a quiet conversation . Still would highly recommend.

    We felt we were being rushed during our dinner. We sat down at 71`5 and our meal was done by 8- we did then have dessert and coffee.
