Black Sheep

Can't say I've ever had anything but a good experience here. I recently returned with a few girlfriends for a dinner together. We booked a reservation ahead because Black Sheep is always pretty busy, plus it was the holiday season so we knew we'd better be on the safe side. Good thing we did because it was hoppinnn on a Monday night. I arrived a little earlier than my friends and grabbed a cocktail from the bar - a very tasty gin tom collins. Be in not cheap however. The six of us were soon sat at a high top and greeted by the friendliest server. He let us know it was half off wine night so you better believed we all opted for that. Plus, they have a pour-your-own wine station which is fun. You simply insert a card assigned to your table each time you pour a glass. We had the brussels and truffle fries to share and let me tell you... get them both! The guy wasn't kidding, they're both damn good and damn flavorful. For an entree I went with a big salad topped with steak and thought it was really refreshing. Steak was perfectly cooked. All in all I was so pleased with it. And of course I had a bite or two of my friends mushroom risotto which was creamy and delicious. Thanks for another solid night, Black Sheep.

We have been coming to Black Sheep for Milwaukee brunch for years and it has never disappointed. I was shocked to realize I have never reviewed Black Sheep, so I am here to rectify that!Black Sheep brunch is next level. Hearty portion sizes, delectable flavors, and reasonable prices. What more could you want!On top of that, the staff are always super friendly, welcoming, and helpful with the menu. The ambiance of the restaurant is adorably sheep themed with some spiciness in the bathrooms. You have to visit to fully understand!After many visits for brunch, you really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Some of our favorites include the croque madame, the biscuits and gravy, the risotto, the breakfast sandwich, and the chicken and waffles. Like I said before, you really can't go wrong no matter what you order!We are already missing our Black Sheep visit today as we drive back to Chicago. Looking forward to our next visit to MKE and Black Sheep brunch!

Highlights1) Great Food2) Fun Vibe3) Outdoor Seating Available Black Sheep is a Milwaukee staple! We've been coming here for years and it never disappoints. Our most recent trip was a Saturday night. We had a reservation which is recommended as it gets busy. They had their patio set up in the front and I even saw a few (well-behaved) dogs out there! Our table was ready right away. I chose to do the self pour wine "machine" which was so fun! You get a little card and can choose your wine and size of pour. I liked being able to try a few things. We ordered the brussel sprouts and the cheese board. Both were great! Menu items that are gluten free are marked. NOTE - I don't believe it's a separate kitchen or work space so call and ask your questions if your allergy is serious. I did the burger (no bun) and my husband ordered the ribs. Both of our entrees were good and service was friendly throughout. This is a tried and true classic!

What a gem of a little spot. We came here for brunch and had the pancake cheese curds and the chilaquiles. My friend had the croque madame. Everything was excellent. I'd definitely come back and try some more items.

Black Sheep is a really solid spot! I have been for brunch as well as dinner, and was equalIy impressed both visits. For brunch, try the risotto that comes with sunny side up eggs on top, or the breakfast poutine if you want something super savory. The iced lavender latte was a hit as well. If you're a cheese curd aficionado, try the pancake-battered cheese curds served with maple syrup. It's a sweet-savory combo that I didn't expect to like as much as I did. I walked in during peak brunch hours on a Sunday, and was able to get a table for two without any wait time. They've always got a fun playlist going and some funky sheep-themed decor to spot when you're inside as well.

Black Sheep sits across from Purple Door Ice Cream, and it had been a spot I've been meaning to try for a while. It's the perfect brunch, lunch, dinner spot- whatever you want to make it! The interior design is chic, the lighting is kinda divine, and all of it is quite exquisite. It was a midday brunch on the chillier side for us and we happened to be the first ones there for the morning, so we had the whole place + service to ourselves. We picked sun spots right by the windows to stay warm and also got the perfect lighting for our meals (+ pictures, of course). The ambiance was light, airy, but also a darker, heavier combination of cello instrumentals in the background. We enjoyed a spread of Lyonnaise truffle fries (6/5, and on my eager best-french-fry hunt, these are some of the best truffle fries I've had in Milwaukee), Mushroom Melt (VG), Beer Cheese Mac (VG). Even though they missed the mushrooms in the first sandwich they brought out, they quickly whipped together another plate to make sure I could have an actual mushroom melt which our server did such a nice job of checking in on throughout our meal. The server grated and drizzled fresh parmesan onto our food which we also graciously accepted. The age cheese in the mushroom melt and beer cheese mac were absolutely Wisconsin core and worth getting for the table. Black Sheep does a fantastic job of incorporating a variety of Wisconsin fresh-made cheeses into their menu items, so if you're on the hunt of trying a good combo of cheese + beer, this is your place. Overall, a rustic, homey vibe here!

The food was incredible! I really enjoyed my pasta and my friend loved her salad. The fries were crispy and hot and the drinks were great! The location was great and allowed for a quick hop to Third Ward for drinks after. The location itself is well decorated and beautiful and we appreciated the ambiance and view to the street and the other patrons. Service is where it fell short a little, our server was quick to serve us at the beginning but went missing multiple times and it was difficult to get his attention to put in our mains order. Service aside the food was the star, and I would come back again
