    Calamari

    Food was great and service was friendly -server Lori was very nice and answered all questions! Over all was pretty quiet on a Wednesday night - so nice atmosphere - not to noisy or crazy. Calamari appetizer was excellent! French onion soup was 7 out of 10 - little bland but little salt and pepper did the trick. Ribeye was well seasoned but slightly under cooked at medium rare - which was ok for me, but little longer on the grill and would have been perfect. Overall good place - would visit again for sure!

    My dinner add the shrimp.

    Great friendly place, I ate at the bar and felt very welcomed by the bar tender. Had a nice steak very economical. If I lived in Milwaukee I would be a regular.

    Gyro and Greek Pork Chop Sandwich!
    David B.

    We had to give the new owners a try so we ordered off the $10.00 carryout only menu. Should have known it would be great since everything we get from Vino Cappuccino has been delicious! Gyro was excellent without being overly salty had great steak fries on both orders. The Greek Pork Chop was tender and very tasty with enough sauce to give the flavor boost! Do yourself a favor and give this a try! We'll be back for sure!

    Had craving for a good rib sandwich so thought I would try this joint Portion huge and tender no knife needed and that's how I like it Steak fries nothing special Mozzarella sticks for an appetizer but similar to those at a local Tosa eatery. Tasty marinara came with it Also had the boneless chicken wings, these I liked. Good flavor, coating thick and crispy Had Pepsi products but w a bar in house they should house Coke products. My biggest complaint, it's winter and I know this is wisconsin but come on Pump some heat in the women's restroom !!!

    A friend of mine recently moved to Wauwatosa, and I wanted to take her out to lunch on a Thursday…read moresomeplace a little nicer than the normal lunch spot, since we were celebrating her move to her new place. I searched on Yelp and came across Parkside 23. It sounded perfect. When we pulled into the parking lot, it was very crowded. I called in to the restaurant to make sure they'd have room for us, and was told that yes, they had just had a cancellation for a table for two, so come on in. We did, and we were seated almost immediately. From the minute we walked in the restaurant, everything was perfect. Hostess Heidi was lovely, our server Sara was amazing, and the food was incredible. My friend had the meatloaf, and crème brûlée for dessert. She said both were great. She's not a drinker, but did have a couple Shirley Temples, which were perfect. I have the pretzel crusted veal with spaetzel. I asked for them to hold the asparagus, which is usually cut up in the spaetzel along with mushrooms and onions, and they did it perfectly. The veal was especially amazing, and the spaetzel was very good, too. I tried the Mr Manhattan, and had another one as my dessert. I'm always delighted when my usual craft cocktail is one of their classics on the menu. It was well-made, if a bit small for the price point. We've already decided that this will be our go-to place for lunch whenever I travel up from Chicago to visit my friend. I'm also making plans to bring my husband up there sometime, because I think he will love it, too. A great find!

And all of them raved about it. And now I understand why. The atmosphere is fantastic in the main dining room, which is where we were seated. It wasn't overly loud. The cocktail list is extensive, and they were delicious. The jambalaya was spicy and fantastic. I had the pasta with vegetables and it was fantastic as well. The cream corn appetizer was out of this world. I didn't know cream corn could be so amazing. Service was wonderful. As was the brownie they brought me for my birthday with candles. Top-notch service amazing food. We will definitely be back again. And I can't wait. Thank you to Parkside 23 for making my birthday dinner Wonderful.

The waitstaff will walk you through how that works your first time. We started with some of the taste & share plates - showing off WI cheese to the out of towners - and then a few people shared some gnocchi and beef tartare while a couple people got burgers. We had maybe 4 bites leftover, and no room for dessert, it was a personal victory. I'm sad I didn't get photos because I love the feel of each unique area that's here. The restaurant is bigger than you think because it's subdivided into smaller rooms. We had a group of 7 for a work event (which meant I kept my phone put away) and were in a cozy little nook in the back by ourselves, I'd never even noticed this little spot. What a fantastic time we had!

It's a great environment with a lot of good drink options. I always opt for the Parker rolls which are tasty but again expensive for the amount you get, I typically order the trout (which until coming here I didn't realize was essentially the same as salmon). It's very good and the potato pancake is a nice touch. Over my visits I've also enjoyed trying the short rib gnocchi, butter chicken, and brussels. They also have a small party room which I have attended an event in before which is always a nice touch. It's secluded and of course much quieter than their main dining area which can get pretty loud!

(https://www.google.com/search?q=is+it+legal+to+add+a+service+charge+when+using+a+debit+card+in+wisconsin&rlz=1C1GCEA_enUS913US913&oq=is+it+legal+to+add+a+service+charge+when+using+a) I asked our server politely about this and she wisely referred my question to her boss (the co-owner, I learned). He came to our table and was immediately irate. "I'll take the charge off your bill tonight, but never again. If you don't want to pay it, find another bar!" I never complained loudly or raised my voice so I was shocked by his angry attitude. I explained I had done some research and learned that a service charge is legal when using a CREDIT card, but is NOT when using a DEBIT card. I thought Sluggo's had been a friendly place, but I learned differently tonight. I'm confident I was right, but I realize customers are not always right. However, customers should ALWAYS be treated better and more professionally and graciously than what I experienced.

From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by a warm, inviting ambiance that perfectly blends modern elegance with cozy charm. The tasteful decor and soft lighting create an ideal backdrop for a relaxed dinner, whether you're out with friends or enjoying a romantic evening.

It's rare to find a place where every bite leaves you wanting more. I can't wait to return and explore more of their offerings.

    We visited this restaurant before when the hotel first opened, so we were excited to try it again…read morevisiting family over the holiday. Overall, I would give this experience 3.5 / 5 stars . The vegan options were pretty limited compared to last time, but I was able to try the hummus. Unfortunately, I found what appeared to be bacon mixed in with the Brussel sprouts, so I wasn't able to eat that. I didn't see that listed on the menu. Otherwise, I would've chose something else. Loved the smokiness in the hummus and the other roasted veggies. To drink, I had the Eldr Rummer. It was good and I appreciated the presentation of the flame on top. It was exactly the tropical drink you would expect. Ambiance - I like that they kept with modern wood feel with the plants. Very nice mixed in with leather and wooden seating. Service - our server was wonderful! She was holding it down for the entire restaurant.

It was very tasty and well prepared with an imaginative garnish - Perch Fish Fry. My wife said it was very good with a serving of 5 filets and the usual sides. - Wine was a couple of glasses of Duckhorn Sauvignon Blanc which was very good. It did not have the crispness of a New Zealand or Australian SB and was more like a very awake Chardonnay. this was our second time there in a week as we are looking for a "go-to" restaurant on Fridays. The limited menu may not allow that to happen.
