Milwaukee Steakhouse

I don't discriminate so I will eat from a cheap truck/cart to an expensive steak house and everything in between. Many people have suggested the Milwaukee steakhouse so I stopped by for dinner. The place is nice but not fancy and just right to be an everyone's place with nice booth and tables. IT's ambience is dim lighting, light color walls, bright colored art and candle style lights on each table. You get black tablecloth, cloth napkins with heavy quality silverware, it's the right amount of elegance that doesn't intimidate someone who may not regularly go to nice restaurants.The service was excellent with at least 4 people taking care of me including my main server, a young man noticed my plate of ribs and brought me a 2nd napkin/silverware rig with the comment of the ribs are messy and you will need the extra napkin, how's that an eye for detail.My server asked if I needed more time with the menu and I said I'm going all out so I ordered the 1/2 rack of ribs, baked French onion soup, 16 oz dry aged Kansas bone in strip steak rare and the Parmesan mashed potatoes with brown gravy.You are started with a little relish tray with green olives, black olives, carrots, pickles, green onions, peppers and radishes. A fresh French bread style roll with butter, the roll was perfect with a thin crisp crust and a fresh soft center.The 1/2 rack rib appetizer was good with moist soft fall off the bone tender meat which is typical restaurant ribs and not in any way a real smoked ribs but still good and I wasn't expecting Kansas City bbq.The French baked onion soup was probably the smallest portion I have ever had especially for the up charge. My first thought was that this is tasty but mostly broth and I would have liked more onion's because it had the least amount onions compared to other offerings that I have had.The Parmesan mashed potatoes with gravy was bland and not seasoned,on the loose side and the gravy made them very soupy. I didn't get any Parmesan flavor like say you top a pizza with Parmesan cheese and it was more like regular mashed potatoes.The 16 oz chard dry aged Kansas bone in strip steak was the star and cooked perfect rare with aju and mushrooms that looked amazing. My first bite was like OMG how tasty with that flavorful fat in the bite. The steak was probably the most cooked perfect steak with melt in your mouth char flavor meat.Overall was it perfect, no but it was my best steak house experience to date and I would definitely go back.

Service: *****Menu: *****Value: *****Atmosphere: *****My first visit there was this past New Year's Eve. I have heard great things about MKE Steakhouse and now I can say it is all true. Let's first start off with the service. (I'm trying to get the names so when I do, I'll edit my review to give them the Kudos they deserve). Outstanding service and befitting of a 5 star restaurant, but yet casual dining. Supper Club blended with upscale restaurant is best to describe MKE Steakhouse. Attentive, prompt, friendly and accommodating service. On top of everything and when we settled in, they came quickly to take our drink order. Highly trained staff.Our group started off with Tempura cauliflower and shrimp for appetizers. The group had a split between soup or salad. I tell you, I've never had such crispy romaine lettuce. That salad seemed freshly picked 2 minutes ago. I had the rib eye with bone in and it was prepared to my temperature and it literally melted in my mouth. Others had Sicilian steak, Filet Mignon and ribs.The steak was seared and charred which I like. Full bar and nice wine menu. We were filled that we didn't even order desserts. By far in my opinion, the best steak in SE Wisconsin.I highly recommend and I will be returning.

Good service. The steaks were flavorful but the sides were just okay. We got the steaks medium rare but next time will go with medium.

We had an awesome experience from the perfectly cooked Filet, Ribeye and King size Prime Rib. Excellent char on the steaks and the prime rib was like butter. Old school ambience with relish tray. However, the highlight of the evening was the service that we received from Julie, Simon and Isaia. Welcoming and sincere with perfect timing. Never felt rushed. The maitre'd offered us a choice of tables which was a nice beginning to the evening. Aloha Uncles David and Guy

Absolutely we loved this place! Service and food was incredible! Steak was cooked proper to perfection! Charred and just like cutting through butter. The desserts were wonderful Mike is a great bartender ! Very enjoyable experience!We liked this 10x better hands down over 5 o'clock steakhouse

Milky Way Martini: My family and I recently had dinner at "Milwaukee Steakhouse" to celebrate my brother's 30th birthday. The restaurant has a classic super club like atmosphere and a menu with a wide variety of steaks and other meat. To start the night off I decided to loosen up with their "Milky Way" martini. The drink is made with Godiva, Caramel Vodka and Baileys with a touch of caramel and chocolate syrups. It was absolutely phenomenal! It hit me surprisingly hard, but the flavor was not at all overly boozy. My only minor complaint is the price of the drink is $8 on their website and it came up as $12 on the bill. Still an out of this world drink and Doughboy approved.Dreamsicle Martini: Since one martini wasn't enough (although it really was), I followed my "Milky Way" with a "Dreamsicle" flavored one. This time the martini was made with Absolut Vanilla and Mandrin Vodka, Vanilla liqueur, and cream (garnished with a slice of orange). I enjoyed this one, but not as much as the "Milky Way". I'm more vanilla over chocolate, but even though there was plenty of vanilla it was overpowered slightly by the orange flavor. I would say this one is just okay, especially chasing the "Milky Way". Again, only minor complaint is the price of the drink is $8 on their website and it came up as $12 on the bill.Hickory BBQ Ribs: I love a good steak, but I had been struck with a craving for ribs. I know I haven't had BBQ ribs since at least before the pandemic, so it's been awhile. I ordered the half rack and it was more than enough for me. As described, the slow roasted pork ribs easily fell off the bone and were coated in a delicious hickory BBQ sauce. For my accompaniments I ordered the creamed spinach and sautéed asparagus (also massive portions). I absolutely loved the creamed spinach (mostly from all the cheese and probably added butter). All Doughboy approvedCarrot Cake: As stuffed as I was after dinner, one of our party offered to share dessert with me. The dessert menu is not on their website, but it consisted of key lime pie, apple pie (I think, I was a little tipsy by this point), chocolate cake, carrot cake, and tiramisu. I told him I would be game for any of the later three (I find key lime & lemon gross and fruit should not be combined with dessert in my opinion). I'm honestly not much of a carrot cake guy either, but it's alright as long as it has a decent cream cheese frosting. Thankfully this one had a nice amount of sweet frosting (it was even layered throughout the cake) decorating the cake, which had a fair amount of moistness to its texture. If you like carrot cake I would say it's great, for me personally it was just okay (hence the dual rating).To sum things up, the food and atmosphere were all great. The staff was courteous and the restraint and facilities were clean. I'm going to give them 4/5 stars as the website could use a little updating (fix those drink prices and get the dessert menu posted) as I'm one of those people that always peruses the website so I know what I'm getting before arriving.

If you're looking for a nice dinner and a welcoming atmosphere, this is a great option! Sometimes, steakhouses can feel stuffy and proper. While nice, Milwaukee Steakhouse doesn't feel like you need to be dressed up to have a nice meal. We came in for a birthday dinner, and liked the char on our steaks and the potato options. The wine selection was also nice, though a bit overpriced. I think the paper menus were a COVID holdover, but if not, they felt out of place. As did the metal carts that the waitstaff pull around with them everywhere. I'm not entirely sure why they bothered me so much, but they were a bit distracting from the ambiance. That being said, everyone was very nice and we had a lovely time!

Another great dinner!We stopped by for a valentine's dinner and loved it. Had the French onion and salads. The bread and relish tray are always appreciated and delicious. Our server was nice and attentive. Our steaks were cooked perfectly and the mushrooms paired perfectly. Can't wait to go back! Consistently good here. Try it out!

I can't recommend Milwaukee Steakhouse enough. I think this is probably one of the best places to get a filet. The filet was cooked perfectly and each bite melts in your mouth. The filet comes with a giant baked potato and a side salad. On Thursdays they have Prime Rib and by the looks of it the next time I come to this restaurant might need to order that. The waitstaff is great and I can't recommend Debbie enough. She's amazing!

I highly recommend the food. The handsome young man working barback helped my husband with the door as i pushed his wheelchair. Very classy act!
