The provel "pizza" they sell in St. Louis is disgusting. Just my opinion. Some solid rib joints down there though
Chick jr. and I had tickets and an AirBnB lined up to see this, but when they switched it from the hockey arena to the Football stadium, we took a pass. We watched it on TV instead of being 50 yards away from the action. Got seats for when the post-Olympic tour hits Milwaukee instead.
Between you guys, Reddit and beer advocate here's my list. Additions or Subtractions? (Not pictured are Blues city deli for a sandwich and Broadway oyster bar for Cajun)
Pro trip: Driving in Venice will end up being catastrophic. About as bad as laboring through a horrible Cardinals game in 100% St. Louis summer humidity.
Have a co-worker whose daughter is touring Marquette next week and looking for restaurant recommendations in the area. Haven't been down there in quite some time as I only come back to Milwaukee once a year. Can you guys throw out some recs on some good restaurants in the area for burgers, Mexican, steak, etc.?
For a casual meal, steer them down to the Third Ward. Plenty of choices, and shows them a cool part of Milwaukee.And for steak, you can't go wrong with Five O'Clock .
Personally, take her to somewhere downtown. She will get to see the downtown area which is memorable. Spend the rest of the time at a campus spot like Sobelman's. Something where the other kids hang out. Going to 5 O'clock would be alright, if not a bit stuffy. Definitely showcases the 'supper club' dining that is home to Wisconsin... but is it fun for an 18 year old? nahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.I'd aim for the Ale Asylum Riverhouse, the Safe House, or Cafe Benelux for something that would appeal to more young people/downtown vibe.
Safe house seemed cheesey when I visited my sister in MKE at 16yrs old. Now it's older and even more cheesey. Benelux especially the rooftop is a solid option. Ale asylum is no longer there it's the third street tavern. Loaded slate roof top would be cool as would the good city in the deer district. Here's a list to check out since rooftops are in right now: https://onmilwaukee.com/articles/rooftop-patios
I thought Third Street Tavern took over for the Mexican Restaurant/Tequilla Bar.
Idk maybe they split the address? It's all the same building/address, could be Whitail is in the specific unit Ale Asylum was.
The Safe House?"Hello, fellow kids."
I mean, it's entertaining for what it is. I didn't imply it was cool or whatever. Just something more memorable than going to somewhere way off campus in Brookfield or West Allis.I clearly haven't spent enough time dining out in downtown Milwaukee in the last yea.r
Year? I thought the safe house was lame 25 years ago on my one and only visit.
