Fucking love this place…read more If there is a highly rated small plates place in a location we are visiting, you can count on us to find it. We walked literally thirty minutes to this place from our hotel. It was a lovely walk in early August. We had a 5:45pm reservation on a Thursday (we are old now) and we were seated immediately. Service was excellent. Ok so they have a fantastic cocktail menu. I appreciate any cocktail menu that is more complex than vodka and cranberry juice but this takes it to another level of creativity. I also like how they name them with numbers. It's so much easier to say "I'll have a 42" rather than "I will have a duperbeamerscicle". I started with an "88" with pisco, rose-poached strawberry, amontillado sherry, verjus, rose port, and pink peppercorn. Served in a highball glass and garnished with berries. Very refreshing. GF started with the "91" mezcal, passion fruit, poblano, pineapple, amaro, lime. Gorgeous and chic. Very strong, smoky flavor. When in Rome, so the cheese plate did not feel like an option. Four fantastic cheeses were served with very tasty candied nuts, some jam business, grapes, and some of the best bread I have had on a cheese plate. Thick, soft, and fluffy. Paired absolutely perfectly with cheese. Only complaint is that I wish there was more of it. I haven't had deviled eggs in a minute so I went wild and also had the chili crisp deviled eggs which were SPECTACULAR. I also got the Egyptian fried cauliflower which is served on a smear of harissa and lemon tahini. Very flavorful. Star of the show tbh was the tagliatelle with squash, tomato, these fried cheese crisps. The noodles were al dente and SO GOOD in such a wonderful sauce. GF also got the steak, she says "very good seasoning". I helped her out with the kimchi pancake. Wonderful. Such a great sauce. For our second round of dranks we both went with the "77" makrut lime vodka, tamarind, bird's eye chili, cilantro, lime, lemongrass. Very tamarind forward. Very unique. I can see why it's our server's favorite drink on the menu. The desserts looked really good (something with sticky rice I think it was a cocktail and a bread budding that looked fantastic) but we just weren't feeling it.

We had such a fantastic dinner at Odd Duck-Thank you Yelp for being our guide and never letting us…read moredown. We grabbed seats at the bar, and the service was spectacular. Our bartender was incredibly friendly, charismatic, and genuinely passionate about the menu. He took the time to explain dishes, offered thoughtful recommendations, and made the entire experience even more enjoyable. Every dish we ordered was outstanding. The deviled eggs were easily our favorite and are an absolute must-order. We also loved the flatbread with fiddleheads, which featured a delicious curry-inspired flavor that reminded us of an Indian dish. My husband couldn't stop talking about the bread pudding and said it was one of the best desserts he's had. Everything we tried was beautifully prepared and full of flavor. If we lived in Milwaukee, Odd Duck would absolutely become one of our regular spots. We can't wait to come back the next time we're in town.

I'm visiting from Durham, NC, and I wish I could put Twisted Plants in my pocket and take it home…read morewith me! The flavor and variety were amazing. It's rare to find a place where both me and my son can eat from the same menu, especially since he's a picky eater, but he finished his entire plate. Our DoorDash delivery arrived hot, fresh, and exactly as ordered. We'll definitely order again multiple times while here!

Friendly vegan spot (5/5 Green Stars) If you're visiting…read moreMilwaukee then a visit to E Brady St. is probably worth your while - a few interesting spots here, including Twisted Plants. I wanted to support my vegan brothers and sisters and, having being on the road (actually on Amtrak, so rails, really) for a while, I was craving some protein. Following the advice of the friendly staff members, I opted for an order of "Drummies" (Dazed & Confused) to maximize my protein intake. I ended up eating it in the restaurant and thought the vegan drumsticks were delicious with the two homemade sauces provided (ranch and chili). This dish is pricier than most of the others ($15, compared to a more reasonable $4 for fries or $10 for vegan mozzarella sticks) but memorable. The place could do with a few tweaks in terms of décor/atmosphere but the friendly staff helped make it a nice experience. I'm also rating the Twisted Plants 4.5 out of 5 Green Stars for social and environmental impact, based on the following: * Everything on the menu - savory food and pastries - is vegan. * Most of the food packaging is compostable. * Staff members are happy to tell you what's in your food. The drummies that I ordered are from Lily's Vegan Pantry - made in Taiwan from soy and seasoning (no palm oil). * Cookies are from local vegan entrepreneur, Bunny's Bite. * It fills a useful niche of craveable vegan (elevated) fast food. Next time I want to try the Crispy Chik'n Salad (made with organic greens) as it's one of those dishes I never tried before I went veggie.

I like the decor a lot, the greenery is very pretty and definitely the focal point of the restaurant.

Will definitely come here for a change of scenery while WFH or to grab food with friends and family.

I wanted to make sure that we hit at least one vegetarian spot during our trip to Wisconsin and…read morethis was the one. Quick uber from downtown MKE. We were greeted by their lovely outdoor seating area in like the cutest little neighborhood. No line on a weekday afternoon. I was delayed by the very thorough menu filled with options that were all available to me. IYKYK. This was just meant to be a snack so we didn't go crazy. We decided to share the fromage grilled cheese with the offered addition of "tofu ham". For dranks I ordered a matcha latte, GF ordered a mimosa that had turmeric and was a very interesting twist from the standard, run on the mill mimosa. The sandwich came out eventually. Very cheesy. The tofu ham is THICCCC. The sandwich is more cozy and comfortable than hearty. GF says "I thought it was good" when asked for more details, she says "not right now, my brain is tired". Very solid lunch spot and I can't get enough of the fact that it is vegetarian.

I love the attention to detail and the family friendly environment of the restaurant space itself. The owners wife cooks the food, and it is consistent and delicious every single time. The red lentils are so tasty--I order double portions when I come in. I am a meat eater so that says a lot about the preparation of the vegetarian sides--so good! The injera is some of the best I've had--perfectly chewy and tangy, not too mild and not rubbery. 10/10. Portion sizes are generous and family style. Order several different sides and enjoy.

There is indoor seating for groups or individuals. You can build your own salad or customize one of their signature options. I usually order ahead, the Santa Fe salad with quinoa and tofu, and they have it ready when I arrive! You start by choosing your fresh greens, spinach, spring mix, romaine lettuce, and/or quinoa. Then a protein and any extras. Customizing one of the signature salads, you can swap ingredients too! The salads are a great size for the price and filling! A great, healthy option when downtown!

Back in the day, there was fresh roasted coffee on Saturday evenings, but the food is still fantastic. We sat at a table this time, I prefer the 'pedestal' personally. If you're feeling a little adventurous just do it. It can be intimidating to not have utensils- you just tear off a piece of the Injera (like sourdough crepe) and pick up what you want to eat. Not everything is spicy- but some is, so if you're not up for spice, be careful. There are lots of vegan options and it's ok to call the waitstaff over (he doesn't like to interrupt).
