Restaurants in Wauwatosa

“Hands down my favorite restaurant in the Milwaukee area, and probably anywhere. You can't get better Indian food in Milwaukee; believe me I've tried almost every Indian restaurant in the area and with every one my fiancé and I say "This is really good, but it's not as good as India Garden." Literally everything I've ordered here has been fabulous.”

“Our third time and the anniversary couple's first time (55 years!) and we were all thoroughly impressed! The food is so authentic - better than any dish we had when we visited Italy! Made with love and fresh ingredients, served by staff who care, and presentation and waitstaff well worth the price. This is not inexpensive, but for any meal with ambiance, and never disappointing, I recommend it highly. Five star everything. We cannot say enough. Thank you for contributing a wonderful Italian option in Tosa area.”

“Went to Kim for my hubby’s bday and we were both extremely pleased with our meals. Normally it should be too much food to eat in one sitting but he and I couldn’t stop! 😆 Looking forward to going again.”

“Amazing food and great atmosphere!”

“My favorite steak in town…. “Steak au Poivre” can be found at this great French restaurant (French not not haughty) in Wauwatosa. Favorite steak as it tastes great, and presented well. Sliced on an angle and sauced with a red wine black peppercorn reduction, it has just enough char on the outside to balance the medium rare I love inside. Along with taste, I love that it comes with my fav vegetables-haricot vertes and absolutely perfect French fries! So unlike popular steak restaurants, at LaReve you get more than just meat for the list price! Yum + Yay! The desserts? They are as gorgeous as they are delicious! The case is filled with sweet perfection, each one more beautiful than the next! Just so hard to pick which on.! And the macrons are iconic-crisp outside and soft chewy inside, take a few home with you! But what a treat to find a Kir Royale on the menu last night at dinner before a show! I’m sure it’s a direct effect of Emily in Paris Season 3, but maybe I just never noticed it on the menu before! I served these for Christmas ten years ago and when I saw Emily working on an ad campaign, I just knew they’d start to show up on menus soon. Lucky me! Bon Appetite! This place is great for a girls lunch or business lunch, A friends dinner or date night!”

“We have always loved the beer at lionstail. They now have in-house pizza, which is yummy. The staff has definitely gone down hill. We have been going since they opened and never had unfriendly service. Tonight was different. We had a giftcard we just got this past January. It was slightly bent. The bartender couldn’t get it to work and told us to go to Wauwatosa to use it instead. In the plus side the owners are still great and have said they will replace the giftcard for us.”

“Classic Italian done right!”

“Staff was very attentive. Food was fantastic. My only complaint is the price, but you certainly get plenty of food for what you pay.”

“Delicious food and excellent service”

“Best soul food around in Milwaukee and all around the city ! Definitely hands down the freshest. My food is always hot and fresh! Dressing is the bomb. Fish, yams , Mac , greens is always on point 5 ⭐️”

“I went there with my buddy and loved it. We had the lettuce wrap and hot and sour soup. Both were awesome. Our server was very courteous. Overall a good experience.”

“Food was phenomenal!! The atmosphere is lacking. A day of touching up paint, stain, chair nicks and deep cleaning would go a long way for minimal cost and effort. You would have thought it would have been done during the COVID-19 shutdown.”

“Chris the bartender is awesome and food was great!”

“My kids took me to come paint which is not something I would ordinarily choose to do. I had a great time. Lots of fun and beers were cold. We took our paintings home as nice souvenirs.”

“Nice place, good food, good ambience.

Vegetarian options: They have vegetarian options

Parking: There is free street parking”

“Food was so delicious, ambiance was beautiful. Our waitress was super sweet and attentive. I enjoyed my birthday dinner here last night. Wonderful date night experience. Thank you for the hospitality. Highly recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Good food and fast service”

“Parking: We were here for a funeral repass. The staff was so helpful, kind, caring & attentive that it made the whole day a "celebration of life!" The one who wasbeing remembered would have loved it! The drinks were strong, food was delicious & the service amazing! We are so glad you are a
still in business!

Kid-friendliness: Decorations were entertaining!”

“This is always my go to spot when I crave a seafood boil. I stopped in for some today and everything went well. My only concern as a customer was that the waitress made me feel obligated to tip right away. She help me pack my bag and before I was able to even look at my amount she open by receipt book and pointed to the percentages of the tip and asked me “which one will I be doing today” to me that’s very rude what if I didn’t want to tip? Of course tipping plays a part but as I watch other customers get done I did not see her do that to any one else but me . Please talk to your associates about that.”

“Food and services was great definitely going again”

“Friendly Staff ✅ Clean Environment ✅ Great Management ✅ Delicious menu options ✅ Drink list I can get excited about ✅ Fun and entertaining ✅ Affordable prices ✅ Let me tell you about our experience - it was top notch from the greeting we received to the customer services to the fun!! We even have to say the restrooms were very clean! Our waitress was on point. She suggested items to us and answered every question. The Manager Christina was so hospitable and I noticed she was always helping wait staff which was nice to see! I cannot wait to celebrate my birthday with friends!”

“This review is LONG OVERDUE! As a SAHM, this place is my go to. I typically take my daughter once a week and we always have such a good time. I love seeing the same familiar faces each week, I love the fact that they know mine and my daughter's name, and Evan knows exactly how I like my iced latte! It just makes me feel so welcomed and apart of their inviting community! I've been to many other play cafes and this is BY FAR THE BEST! From the aesthetic vibe, to the food/drinks options, the hours (9-7 PM) compared to other places that close earlier in the day, and no blocked times for play so it caters to everyone's schedules. I also really ADMIRE AND APPRECIATE seeing so many different faces and backgrounds. It's just so welcoming to ALL and I will forever be apart of this village!”

“Wanted to shout out Adonis! Great customer service. I really hope the food is great. If so I'll be returning as Adonis handled the crowd. Hope he sees this post and know he is appreciated !”

“Amazing ice cream! Love this for Tosa!”

“Good service, friendly atmosphere and excellent food quality.”

“We come here regularly and love everything from the delicious food to the friendly staff & wonderful owners. I was raised in Kona & this feels like home. Casual atmosphere where you feel like family- but can leave your slippas on! And great island treats & gifts. March of 2025 they have a $10 the King Kamehameha Platter and it's a great way to sample all their dishes. my Favorites are the poké & CharSiu pork🌺”

“Great fish fry. Staff very friendly. Amazing selection of food on the board. I also appreciate that they clean the tables well between use. Highly recommend this small but wonderful Wauwatosa treasure!”

“Had the dill pickle chicken salad sandwich and honey vanilla latte. Everything was delicious. Will be going back!”

“Great family feeling. They really go the extra mile. But for me, it just felt like a warm hug if that makes sense! Worth a try for sure. The couple that own it really put their heart and soul into it and it shows. It’s a newer business well worth supporting!”

“Cannot say enough about the food, the staff and the ambiance. Whether it is pregame, post-game, special night out, day drinking and dining or late night cocktails and dinner after a late flight this place never, ever disappoints. Its been that way for years and hope it never changes.”

“Got their cheesecake jars to celebrate a birthday and OH MY.. they are so incredibly good. We will be back to try more of their offerings for sure.”

“I’m a frequent FreshFin customer, and I was extremely excited that R & R had gluten-free sweet shoyu!! 😱 My custom bowl was perfect, and there are a lot of really interesting bowls on the menu. Lots of options for different styles, a variety of sides, AND boba tea! ✨ Super friendly staff too, I’m new to the area excited I have a new spot!!”

“My first time going I got the smoothie bowl and it did not disappoint! I love that we have this type of restaurant so close to us! The staff is friendly and helpful. I highly recommend you check this place out 😊!”

“im not sure why no one else in Tosa carries pour over filters for v60s but im grateful they do and im always pleased w the drink i grab when i get my filters too”

“Excellent Italian apricot pastry and espresso.”

“Great Beer selection, even gluten free options!”

“My husband and I have been coming to this eatery since it reopened under new ownership with Carlos who had formerly been the cook at the North Avenue Grill for several years. Though we will not be returning customers to this eatery, it's no reason for me/us to discourage others from eating here. The food is delicious. It's served hot and fresh. And we also prefer to do business with small businesses such as the Midtown Grill. But on our last recent visit, and this was not the first mishap, my food was not served as I had ordered, but I didn't complain. On this last visit, I didn't complain either, but I did exclaim to our wait person that I was unhappy with my platter. The Huevo Ranchero eggs were, and I had asked for two, instead of the three, overcooked, and it was too salty for me to enjoy. Well, as I watched the wait person walk away, I noted that the server engaged the cooks re: my food and from their body language it was obvious that my constructive critique was not received in good form. Shoulders were shrugged, and this implied to me that they didn't care. This behavior told me everything I needed to know re: my customer satisfaction. This is unfortunate because we enjoyed coming to this laid back eatery. We were provided a discount of which I DID NOT ask for, and I tried to explain to the server that it wasn't necessary, but I was left speaking to their back as they chose to walk away. This behavior towards me was rude and disrespectful. If an establishment does not want need or want your business, the wait staff can certainly help to make or break a customer's spirit.”

“Always very good food and friendly staff.”

“Honestly turmeric latte is my fav ! But they make the best salad in the world I’m like addicted to it !”

“Tanya is an exceptional waitress Her hospitality is above and beyond Definitely recommend her to anyone Very impressed”

“Visiting from out of town and stumbled upon this place. The coffee was great, and my daughter described her scone as "the best thing she ever ate." Also important to note that everyone who works here is friendly and kind. They went above and beyond to help me find a coveted souvenir. Highly recommend.

Kid-friendliness: Gave a free sticker to my daughter and had coloring books and crayons for free on the table”

“Had my first Suburpia sub in 30 years today with my girlfriend Linda. Just as great as they used to be. Will be back for sure.”

“Fun atmosphere-tons I’d staff! Great on a run/Irish weekend!”

“Very chill place, but popular. Fast service, excellent barista technique and discipline. Average cost, decent selection and the quality of the items is superb.”

“Ordered Cashew Chicken and Shrimp Chow Mein for me an my husband. The chicken and sauce was super tasty! Husband liked the shrimp in his chow-mein. Will absolutely order food from here again.”

“We love it! Kids love the colors and variety of baked goods! Clean and friendly staff!”

“Great food. Awesome service. Cool vibe. I enjoyed my experience. Will go back again.”

“Stopped in for late lunch yesterday, Friday, perch fry was great, spicy slaw is one of the best around, cool bar ,reasonable prices and good people working there and hanging out.”

“I can not recommend this place enough. Exceptional food and great service. Am addicted to their birria ramen. Their prices are also fabulous.”

“Me and my boyfriend ordered a pizza and birthday stix tonight around 11pm. Our order's estimated arrival time was 11:41-11:51. We were super hungry so when the food wasn't here at 12am we called to see whats going on. The guy we talked to was super nice and without any hesitation gave us $10 off our order. Then he explained it was only him and the driver in the store and they got hit really hard with orders (he said they received about 15 orders around the same time.) Working in food service ourselves, we completely understood the situation. The pizza arrived about 10 mins later and the food was warm and delicious. The driver also dropped off a pint of free ice cream and a brownie for the wait. We were very surprised with the service.”

“Been here a few times. Always a cool place to hang out. You'll get good service and good food at a decent price. Love how they open the doors on nice days. Crowd is younger. Would recommend. Jordan was great to hang out with!”

“Souper soup!!! Great owner great service”

“Amazing Food!!! The service was great!!! Just all around good no complaints”

“Truly amazing. Croissants are perfection, everything else comes close or meets that bar. The crew is so so so friendly too. I can't tell you how happy I was to move within a few blocks of the place!”

“This place is small and quant. The wings were pretty good. Chicken wrap was tasty. & the drinks were ok. I had a Bloody Mary that wasn’t that good. Didn’t finish it. No fixings to go with it.”

“Great breakfast along with awesome coffee, staff and patrons.”

“Went to Hector’s after the Home Show we used to go here often back in the early 2000s and thought we would try it for old times sake Boy it’s even better than we remember!!

We went here for the 1st time in about 1990 and we so impressed that it still rocks like we remember”

“Great place to bring your dogs.”

“Been coming here for years . I’m a mailman close by so I order ahead for lunch. It’s always delicious. I get the general tso combo with fried rice and egg roll. There is always so much food I get 2 meals out of it.”

“Bibi is the absolute best! We absolutely adore her! She makes the bar what it is with her Bubbly personality, tasty bloody Mary’s (even late night) and her fresh friendly conversation. The bar chairs could use more options for the disabled customers they have, but overall A++ for customer service and good quality.”

“My new location!!!
Everything about this one is fantastic,fresh and friendly staff !!! Bill-GM and his staff have wonderful customer service best location in the city ! I've never experienced such fresh food from panera like I have at this location ?.. yes they all have fresh food but for some reason this location has been extremely fresh and delicious, I'm a creature of habit so I get my coffee breakfast sandwich,blueberry muffin and if I'm in for lunch I grab a grilled cheese ,a tea and I bounce between 3 of the soups
Chicken with wild rice,chicken noodle or broccoli and cheese a choice that don't disappoint!!! And chocolate chip ? cookies are to die for - did I mention the coffee is always fresh and with the unlimited sip club membership you can have unlimited drinks of soda, hot coffee,ice coffee,hot or cold tea as well as lemonade...overall panera is a great place to sit and eat with the family or friends and just as peaceful to have a meeting!!

Will definitely go back to this location. Thanks for a great dining experience!”

“best sub in Milwaukee !!!!”

“My husband and I used to go here every Friday, and it's our favorite restaurant in Tosa. We've since moved, and Hui's is what we miss the most! Great food, wonderful people. After becoming regulars here, we ended up always being recognized by name, and that just added to how welcoming the place feels. I have never gone to a specific restaurant every week and not gotten tired of it, but every single Friday, I always looked forward to dinner. Dining in or ordering takeout, Hui's is the best place to go for amazing service and wonderful Chinese food!”

“This restaurant exists to sell lunches to staff at the nearby hospital complex. They offer a wide variety of sandwiches, bowls, baked goods and hot meals for both vegan and omnivores. They have an entire vegan menu, and vegan desserts in their baked goods area are clearly marked. A great lunch option for vegans!”

“So many subways around milwaukee have awful reviews, I went with north Ave today since they had the best reviews and it did not disappoint! The workers were very nice and gave good portions. My new subway go to!!”

“customer service was great 👍”

“Since moving to Wisconsin, many people have said to try a sub from Cousins. I got a free sub coupon from a volunteer event, so I figured it was the perfect time to try them out. I got the cheesesteak with extra mayo and a side of curds. The sandwich was great. It was very flavorful, and the bread was the perfect texture. The toppings were stacked but not overloaded, which is how I like it. Overall, I’d gladly get another sub here.”

“Great Happy Hour for food and drinks. 3-5pm for great food specials IN THE BAR and 3-6pm for great drink specials. We’ll done JBS!!!”

“This is my favorite location. The food is consistently better than the other locations and I makes me keep coming back. Bonus points for this location having just the correct amount of slices of pizza available that they are not throwing many out but the ones that they are giving to customers are very hot right out of the oven.”
