Tonight's visit was maybe my 4th or 5th (with every time leaving me wondering "why don't I come here more,") and it is tonight that I've decided that Egg & Flour is quintessential Milwaukee. This may be the extra helping of wine (I sat at the bar, and the gentleman politely asked "would you like some more wine?" and politely topped me off, because - quintessential Milwaukee), but in short: we have incredibly delicious pasta at reasonable prices in a fast-casual type setting. There's a world-class chef at the helm, but with any sort of air of being pretentious crowded out by video games, kitschy homey decor, and Midwest friendliness (and I'm not just talking about from the generous wine distributor, but his colleague also was very kind in making sure I had a good experience and welcoming me back soon). Tastes good and feels good. What's not to love? read more

Not what I expected but Solid choice! I have always seen this place in bay view and wanted to give it a try especially since I found out the chef was previously on food network. This place is a no frills pasta with a more takeout feel. I think the food is solid past place. They will help you work through the menu if you have never been which I appreciate but wish they had a few more options as it seemed limited and not 100% as creative as I would have loved. read more

Wow, this pasta is just simply beautiful. I got the The Adam, and I have to say that bowl of pasta was not ready for this hungry little man to absolutely devour that bowl. The homemade pasta gave a solid foundation (composed of what I assume to be egg and flour ), the sauce allowed for a beautiful symphony of flavors to dance in my mouth, while the big cheese ball placed on top of the pasta added that little hint of uniqueness. For my gym bros out there, don't forget to add that protein in. I recommend the chicken. Below is an image of what my bowl looked like after taking less than 10 minutes to devour it. #demolished read more

I can't even BEGIN to describe my masterpiece of a pasta. I got the truffle lemache pasta. The parmesan cream was incredibly rich and believe it or not, creamy. The truffle on top added so much flavor to the pasta, I didn't even mind that my breath will smell like truffle for the next couple hours. The woman who took my order was so kind and patient with my indecisiveness, she even helped us pronounce the name of the pasta, as I was clearly struggling... The look on the inside of the restaurant is really nice while also being casual. We loved playing the arcade games they had, I sadly am very bad at Street Fighter II so I didn't get very far there. But other than my horrible video game skills, I had an amazing experience!!! read more

Food has been consistently delicious. I have dietary restrictions and Egg and Flour is one of the few places where I can enjoy a meal as is. Their sundried tomato Campanelle pasta is my go to. I add baked chicken which is actually a generous portion of protein on the side. It's enough to split into 2 dishes which is a great deal for an add-on. Their truffle pasta is also deliciously creamy. I definitely recommend trying Egg and Flour for a fresh and quick pasta meal. read more

We've been here a few times. I can't believe I haven't added a review yet because we love this place. The food & service are always excellent. The cream sauce on bucatini is out of this world.

Absolutely love it here. All the good is incredibly fresh. I got the Pesto Buccatini with crispy chicken and my mom got the Wisconsin Mac and cheese and both were great. They also have my favorite Cesar salad as the dressing is super fresh. Dining style is similar to Culver's where you order up front and they give you a number buzzer to let you know when your order is ready. The pasta I believe is made to order, so it takes a little time but they're still quick! There's usually plenty of seating and they have 1-2 tables outside in the summer when it's nice out! read more

Service and food were amazing! The staff is super personable and full of hospitality, coming from someone visiting from Texas! The food was excellent! Best Italian food I've had in a while and the ambiance of the restaurant is very pleasant and refreshing! Definitely recommend! read more

I have been a very part-time resident of Milwaukee for several years. I finally relocated here full-time and decided to try Egg & Flour Pasta Bar for lunch today. I ordered fresh bread, a small Caesar salad, and Wisconsin mac & cheese with grilled chicken. The portions were huge and the food was delicious. I'll be back! read more

Four of us tried Egg and Flour for the first time. Interesting concept, designed to reduce costs by having the patron provide the service (pick up everything at the bar). Should there then be a tip? Probably not or you easily run up a bill of $62.93 for two. The varieties of pasta are also interesting and the portions are generous. $8 for a Pinot Noir is on the high side, given the cafe-like setting. Parking does not exist except on the street. Meatballs are great, but make sure you realize they are $3 extra per piece. We liked the place and the chef, but may see what else is out there for the price. read more

Egg & Flour is a great spot right in the heart of Bay View. Everything my dining companion and I ordered was good. The Mac n' Cheese is probably some of the best I've ever had, and $14 felt reasonable to me. The burrata and bread was great, too, but at $12 a little overpriced in my opinion. My dining companion went with the Wild Mushroom Tortellini, the special of the day. It was good, but didn't blow us away. At $20 it was also a bit too pricey. When we arrived, we were surprised to see that you order at the counter and then go retrieve the food when it's ready. If I'm being honest, Egg & Flour is like a slightly elevated, more expensive Noodles & Company. Will I be returning? Absolutely. The food was solid. But I just need to mentally prepare myself to spend about $60 for two people at a fast-casual restaurant. read more

Egg and Flour is a pasta bar that offers breads, sandwiches, salads, and a wide variety of pasta dishes to choose from. You can add on a protein to any of the dishes for additional charge. The restaurant itself has a very casual vibe where you walk up to order but also has indoor seating options and/or take out. We ordered takeout so didn't interact with staff much but we tried a cheese-based pasta and tomato-based pasta. The serving of pasta you receive is definitely worth the money. I thought the Caesar salad had pretty good flavor. The rigatoni was nothing fancy -- pretty simple/light, but it had a decent flavor to it. I would recommend adding meatballs to it because those were delicious and filling! The Shells dish was super rich and flavorful - especially if adding crispy chicken to it. I'm definitely interested to go back and try some other dishes. Would recommend if you're in the mood for pasta/Italian food and looking for a good bang for your buck meal. read more

One of my Facebook friends posted about the Egg & Flour Pasta Bar, so I followed along for a year or so and then I finally got my chance to visit. All the pics look so good, so it was perfect when we decided to share three pasta entrees between my family. The pasta is made fresh daily and the meals are made to order, it's delicious and fresh! We sampled The Adam, Carbonara and Rigatoni. We can't wait to go back! read more

The pasta is made fresh daily and it's all so delicious. Their bolognese is hearty and the Parmesan cream sauce is rich and satisfying. Can't wait to try more. It's a more laid back hip spot.

Seriously if you're looking for a good place for well made pasta that isn't stuffy or wildly overpriced, this is the spot for you! read more

Went there with my husband on a Thursday early evening. This place is pretty spacious and was empty when we walked in. We placed our order at the counter and sat down at the bar. It took maybe ten to fifteen minutes before the food came out. My husband ordered the Adam and I ordered one of their basic cream sauce pastas with a chicken breast. The food was pretty good and the pastas were nice and fresh. It is about five dollars more to order the chicken or meatballs on your entree, so my pasta ended up being around $19.00 while my husbands was $20.00. I also ordered a single whiskey and sprite, which was $5.00. Not cheap, but not too expensive either. You get pretty good size portion of food too. We both enjoyed our meals and said we would definitely go back again. read more

So amazing. I love that you can take amazing pasta but not make it a super fancy sit down restaurant. Order at the counter and sit down with an amazing handcrafted plate of pasta in a casual environment. I also love the bread. I don't know what they do to it, but it's really good. I need to come back here or at least do takeout on the way home from work. It's awesome. read more

Great food and spacious restaurant! This place gives me a city feel on the inside. I usually order the Bucatini but this time I tried their special vids pasta. It's pretty cool to taste one of their super limited pasta dish and taste a freshly made pasta! Had a sparkling water to go with it. The staff was friendly, helpful, and super fast! I came there for an early dinner with friends so there was not much wait around 5pm. It got a little. Yay at dinner time but not a problem since they had plenty space and seating tables. I will always come back to this place cause they're always good ! read more

Yummy!! I love pasta and if ypu do also, this is your place. Daughter and I stopped in for dinner. I ordered the Papperdelle with bolognese sauce and my daughter chose the Truffle Lumache. I loved the wide noodles and the sauce was so tasty and my daughters meal was so delicious also!! You order at the counter and are given a buzzer when your food is ready. I liked that there was a water station because I like drinking water with my meals so I could go back and refill my cup as much as I wanted. I will be back again to try more of the entrees. I also thought the price was reasonable considering the pasta is handmade and I had leftovers for another meal. read more

I've loved Egg & Flour since they started off at Crossroads. The Bay View location is nicely situated on Howell right off Kinnickinnic. You order at the counter and get one of those buzzer things that goes off when your order's ready. There's always been plenty of seating when I've been there, in the afternoon or evening. You can grab a seat at the bar or sit at a table. TV's play movies and the Food Network. Portions are reliably huge and the pasta is always fresh and al dente. Everything is good but my favorite is probably the rigatoni, with tomato cream sauce and topped with a burrata ball. I'm also partial to the bucatini with pesto cream and pistachios and the pappardelle dishes just because that's one of my favorite pasta shapes. I got the bread on a recent visit when I was hungry and didn't care about social norms around carbohydrate consumption. I was still thinking about the bread after the meal. It was hot and brushed with butter with more garlic butter on the side. It was perfect for soaking sauce but also delicious on its own. I've had the salads and they're delicious also. Prices for the amount of food you get are more than reasonable. Some of the rotating specials are not to be missed--check social media to see the latest. One of my favorite spots for a casual pasta meal. read more

I started out looking for an old school Italian American red sauce shop and ended up stumbling upon and choosing Egg and Flour Pasta Bar instead because I knew just from looking at the photos that I would be hitting on a winner. Pasta here is all house made (both ribbons and cut pasta), cooked perfectly al dente, and coated in downright delicious sauces. You order at the corner and get a buzzer for when your food is ready. There's self service water, but also a nice selection of bottled drinks (San Pellegrino, Acqua Panna, etc.) for purchase. For dinner, I had the basil pesto bucatini and my daughter got the shells, to which she added grilled chicken. We also ordered a side bread, which was an 8-inch just okay loaf that was made *delicious* by the roasted garlic butter that came on the side. (We're talking about whole roasted garlic cloves, mixed up with creamy salted butter. Stupidly delicious.) Egg and Flour is a little casual gem in Bayview that does one thing really, really well, and I can't wait to come back. read more

New restaurant of the week was this pasta restaurant and anyone who is friends or followers can see I don't do Italian very much because I'm Italian and and I ate so much pasta growing up and as an adult when I learned how to cook . Today I was craving a bolognese style pasta and meat balls so I stopped by here for lunch. There model is a little different because they don't have table service but more of a fast food style but it's not fast food in any way because you place and pay for your order and sit anywhere you want, when the pager goes off you go back to the counter and pick up your food. The decor is funky and more hip/modern than old crusty Italian restaurant with a black a and yellow theme. There is a cooler with fresh made pasta on display in front of the pasta making room where you can watch the fresh pasta getting made. Every order is made fresh one plate at a time I noticed. I ordered the Bolo Pappardelle with added meatballs which is Bolognese, meat sauce with fresh grated Parmesan in 6 inch wide flat noodles topped with 2 side meatballs with the cloud of Parmesan cheese. The meat balls were flavorful with the right texture. The Bolognese sauce was ok, it's not garlicky or grandmas but perfectly suitable because everyone's tastes are different. The fresh noodles were awesome and cooked perfect Al dente. The noodles are cooked to order and not laying around waiting for an order which I really appreciate. Overall is it the best pasta restaurant, no but they do pasta in a fresh cooked model and it definitely filled this Italians crave with out spending hours making a pot of pasta. read more

My husband wanted to try out this place, well we both did, but he has an egg allergy so I didn't think he could eat the pasta. Turns out there is no egg in their current recipe so he could order most things on the menu. (No carbonara or breaded chicken for those with an egg allergy.) The staff seemed nice, and it's just counter service so the food was up pretty quickly. The interior has a very chill casual vibe, and I'd probably take it to go in the future so I can get my own bottle of wine and enjoy it. The Adam was delicious and filling for me. My husband just felt like mac and cheese and he thought it was okay. It's a little pricey for what it is, but I'd enjoy it again in the future. read more

This place is average at best in Bay View. The atmosphere inside is basically fast casual, where you walk up to a counter and order. The staff attitude during my visit was pretty haughty and bro-y. They packaged my order to go, even though I intended to dine in. (I don't recall being asked by staff either way). Overall, they seemed far more concerned with online order prep than in-person customer service during my visit. This is a pasta place that competes with Tenuta's and Santino's nearby... I won't be back to Egg & Flour any time soon. Lobster rigatoni was just okay - but not "knock your socks off" amazing. For what I paid at Egg & Flour for that dish, I could have had a far better overall dining experience at one of the other two places mentioned at a similar price point. read more
