    I'm here but they don't want my loyalty card :(
    Charlotte Q.

    Server/ bartender this morning is fun and friendly love her ! However ... I can't use my Bartolotta membership loyalty card to get points and this is disappointing since the name of this place is Bartolotta want to explain ???

    Nice place near Dgates. Not many options in Milwaukee airport so good to grab this one, the service was very good. Food was decent and came quite quickly. Ordered veggie tomato basil panini with upgraded fries and chicken pizza with pesto drizzle. Panini was smaller in size but good and was made fresh. Everything was great and realized later that this was the last place to close in that airport so luckily made it in time for the dinner. Thankful about that :)

    I had dinner here before heading back home. Stopped in for something relatively quick. The sandwich was pretty good. Had not had a meatball parm in a long time.

    Extra pepperoni, extra well done. Very good choice

    Great service. Great drinks. Really good pizza. Some of the other places around this gate are as pricey but with ok service and mediocre food. Check this place out

    Cheese curds

    Pretty basic restaurant. Cheese curds were good. Pizza was very simple when it comes to ingredients (not sure if it used fresh ingredients). Very quick service.

    Hmm.... Don't know how to gauge the service.... I came in, was immediately forgot about... apologized to.... Ordered drinks and pizza, about 35 mins later, no pizza.. had to inquire about it... knowing I only intended on eating to toppings which made the wait even more irritating.... Ordered another drink...... a truly.... and since.... 25 mins go by and monkey has checked on me.... I wanted to close out since I ordered the last drink.... Guess I'll just leave?

    The food ended up being good, but it took way too long for airport takeout. We waited over 20 minutes after being roped in that it was 10 minutes or less. We ended up eating it on the plane.

    The service here was seriously five stars. Rashunda was manning the grab and go counter and she was quick to tell me all of my options. All of which were available quickly! They also have a decent seating area across from the grab and go counter, it was a nice option to grab my food and have a table to eat it at. I went with the pizza. It tasted like pretty standard frozen pizza, not bad by any means, but not great. There aren't a ton of options at this side of the airport. I would certainly eat here again due to the friendly service and convenient dining area!

    A poor excuse for a Marguerita pizza

    Paul Bartolotta - if your Nonna had the pizza we ate today, she'd throw you out of the kitchen. AND as the chef responsible for bringing Top Chef Season 21 to Wisconsin, Tom Colicchio, would never consider permitting you into Last Chance Kitchen. He'd just tell you, "Paul - it's simply inedible". Shame on you for calling your prefab no flavor dough & canned tomato sauce on a disk a pizza!!!

    $33.99/12pk.. check ur bag... Really upset I won't get to taste the seasonal flavoring!  :( :/

    Woman bagged me the regular instead of the seasonal! Check your bag if you buy some to bring with you...too expensive to get the wrong kind!

    It's your best option in the terminal, but service is hit or miss in terms of speed and attentiveness.

    Simply put...Onesto is amazing! A friend and I decided to try Onesto for the first time, during…read moreDowntown Dining Week, after YEARS of it being on both of our list! Upon the walk up, the patio transports you somewhere else. The interior is beautifully designed (loved the local artwork on the walls). The staff was phenomenal- from the hostess to our server (shoutout to Mars)! The food was amazing! I started with the bruschetta and I haven't had any this good since a certain Bayshore restaurant went out of business in 2019. In general I'm a huge fan of Benson's restaurants, especially when branzino is on the menu and Onesto's is the best I've had from their group! Drinks...between my friend and I, we probably had every spritz on the menu, in addition to a few others! Onesto is a must try and I will be back (many times), to make up for lost time!

    Italian food is one of my favorite cuisines and I've heard about this restaurant by many foodies in…read morethe area, so I was eager to try it out! Came here on a date, and we ordered classic dishes that we love like the carbonara and bolognese pasta dishes. I tried both dishes and the carbonara was my favorite of the two, but honestly, both were not the best pasta dishes I've had at a restaurant - they were okay. We did get bread and salted butter and ordered a cup of creamy clam soup - which was delicious. I would consider the bread, soup, and cocktails the highlight of the meal. The service was great! We had a very attentive server that frequently checked in on our table and answered all of our questions. The dining area is absolutely beautiful and well lit - creating a relaxing and romantic atmosphere for our date night. While the pasta wasn't our favorite, the dining experience was still wonderful and we enjoyed the appetizers/small plates.

    This is such a quaint and romantic pasta shop! What makes this restaurant so interesting and unique…read moreis that on their menu, they write in all caps: "All items subject to change without notice." I do hope that their pistachio pasta and veal dish don't go away. For starters, I ordered the Seasonal Bruschetta, which had citrusy notes from the diced tomatoes and pickles with mortadella. For the main course, I ordered the Giovanni's Original Veal Parmesan with fettuccine alfredo. This dish is prepared in the style of Parmesan or Corletta served with your choice of pasta. The veal parmesan was nice and crispy. But the most memorable dish of the night was their Fusilloni al Pistachio. The creamy pistachio pesto, Guanciale, and Brontë pistacho panna crudo brought this dish together so well! I loved the sauce so much that I ended up pouring the sauce all over the fettuccini alfredo. Staff was very attentive and friendly--striking the perfect balance between being available when needed and allowing me to enjoy my meal at my own pace. I ended the night with a classic cheesecake, which was the perfect way to end the night.

    It's been on our list for a while, and this was our first time coming here…read more Food: Excellent! One of the best Italian meals we have had. We started with a couple of the signature cocktails. My Papa Gio's Old Fashioned was outstanding. The additional Cynar amaro is a stroke of genius. For starters, we ordered the Fried Eggplant (Melanzane Fritte), which was probably the best we have ever had. It arrived piping hot, and the breading was fried to perfection. The eggplant itself was mild, with no hint of bitterness. The accompanying marinara sauce was thick and flavorful. For entrées, we ordered Gio's Stuffed Filet and the Chicken Parmesan. The filet was cooked perfectly to medium-rare and was delicious. The Chicken Parmesan was a huge portion. There were literally three chicken breasts, each with well-seasoned breading and fried to a beautiful golden crispness. It was excellent. We had plenty of leftovers and enjoyed several more meals at home. (The eggplant reheats especially well in an air fryer.) Service: We had a 5:30 reservation and were seated right away. We let our server know that we had a performance to attend and were assured that we would be out with plenty of time to spare. For the vast majority of the evening, the service was great. Unfortunately, things changed toward the end of the meal. We literally could not find our server, and we suspect they may have also been handling a party upstairs. Since we needed to leave, we had the host help us get our bill paid. Feeling rushed at the end of the meal took a bit of the polish off an otherwise excellent experience. Atmosphere: The restaurant is small and has an authentic feel to it. The photos and décor make you feel as though you're dining in a typical European restaurant. The tables are close together, and it was a bit noisy at times. Overall, we had a very good experience. I can't say enough about the drinks and food. I just wish the service had been more consistent throughout the evening. We are looking forward to our next meal there.

June 2026 lunch review: We had family visiting from Chicago and so I made a reservation for 5 at noon on a Monday at Lupi & Iris, this was my first time having lunch here. Parking was easy (metered street parking) and we were seated as soon as we arrived. Our server was wonderful and our guests loved the ambiance, service, and enjoyed their quiche and hamburger. The cocktails were refreshing and the lunch course is a good deal and a great way to sample 2 or 3 different courses. I had the soup, chicken, and olive oil cake. I liked the flavors and texture but I thought my soup and chicken were overly salty. My husband ordered the Jamon sandwich and said it was "a joke". He said there was one piece of ham, the cheese was dry, the bread was chewy. He felt none of the flavors worked together and he wouldn't order it again. The desserts were wonderful, a lot of texture, flavor, and we loved the olive oil cake!

I love the location of this restaurant, a cozy little nook set apart from the business of downtown but still so accessible! With events happening at the fiserv and new music venue in the deer district, it was a welcome reprieve from the action. The restaurant itself is lively but chill - is there a word for that!? lol very laid back, friendly and informed staff. We were able to snag a seat at the bar which was great - it's probably got 12-15 seats. Full dinner service too! My husband got a mezcal old fashioned (not on the menu) and I got a spicy margarita. Both were great! As for food, the menu is eclectic, but everything looks and tasted great! We got 2 appetizers, the bruschetta and stuff pepper - both were delish!! And then we shared the braised beef risotto topped off the night with a spirit free strawberry Fresca & churros (SO GOOD). Great experience for deciding last minute and getting a walk in spot.

    First time coming here…read more Food: The menu has a lot of excellent choices. The drink menu features plenty of specialty cocktails, and I took our server's recommendation and ordered the Whisky Paloma, which was an excellent choice. I loved the chili dust along the rim. If you like pizza, they have an interesting selection featuring ingredients such as peaches, figs, and bacon. It was hard to decide, but I ended up ordering the Burrata pizza with grilled peaches, arugula, and honey. It was very good and would have been even better with a few more grilled peaches. I also ordered the grilled octopus because, if it's on the menu, I just have to try it. It was very good, along with the accompanying roasted potatoes. I prefer my octopus well grilled and firm, and this preparation was a bit softer than I would have liked. We finished with the tiramisu, which was a little disappointing. It was both very cold, as though it had just been thawed, and a bit soggy. Service: The service was very good throughout the evening. We were seated right away, and our server did a nice job of getting us settled in. The drinks and food arrived surprisingly quickly, and we felt well attended to throughout the meal. Thanks, Robert! Atmosphere: The building is a gem, with old brick on the outside and a modern, relaxing design on the inside. There is a foyer where guests are greeted and can wait for their tables. The wood wall treatments and lighting are inventive and upbeat. The many hard surfaces make the acoustics a bit loud, but we were still able to have a conversation comfortably. Overall, it was a very good experience. With a bit more attention to some of the final touches on the food, this could have been an even better experience. We would enjoy coming back again.
