    Outlaw Oyster absolutely delivered from start to finish. We kicked things off with the chef's choice of three oysters, served with cocktail sauce, mignonette, and agua chile....every single one was fantastic and thoughtfully paired. From there, we shared the smoked trout appetizer and the calamari with agua chile, both of which were so flavorful. Then came the lobster sliders... and wow. Hands down the best lobster sliders of my life, served with drawn butter and Caesar fries. Completely indulgent and worth every bite. This is a must order. We also had to try the smash burger since they share space with Crafty Cow, and it did not disappoint...juicy, well-seasoned, and exactly what you want in a smash burger. Service was awesome throughout the meal (Dani was wonderful), and the vibe was warm and fun. They still had their holiday decor up, which somehow felt cheerful instead of overdone and made the whole space extra inviting. Fantastic food, great service, and a lively atmosphere...Outlaw Oyster is a must-visit in Milwaukee. I'll be back.

    Fun rustic atmosphere. Interesting cocktail list, with about 4 spritz variations. We ended up splitting the shrimp cocktail, riptide and sweet Jesus oysters, and the lobster sliders. Everything looked great. Fries are shoestring and were realllll good! Seems like they have great happy hour deals, also some late night dinner options if you're like us and get caught up chatting after work and realize around 8 that you haven't even thought of food. We will definitely be back!

    So thrilled with this find! It's so cozy and down to earth with seafood you would be hard pressed to find at a place with white table clothes. The strawberry Negroni was so unique and delicious. We started with the salmon dip and it was creamy goodness full of the most amazing smoked salmon. The bahn mi was a big cut of fish and very flavorful. The green goddess shrimp roll was a buttery burst of flavor and the Cesar fries upgrade is not to be missed!

    One of my favorite spots!! If you're a seafood lover, this will become your favorite too. The oyster options change daily :) oysters are my absolute favorite so I try all of the options. The lobster crabs are great as well. The service is excellent. Very warm, welcoming, and attentive. It is a small place but I haven't been when it was super packed. The music is a great mix of classics which you will enjoy. I will post more pics when I have tried some other food options.

    Char grilled and raw oysters

    I will preface this with... I am from New Orleans. This is a beautiful small quaint place with Summer sidewalk seating. I came here for Nat Oyster Day to see what it was all about. The staff was super nice and overwhelmed. The menu was nicely simple. The 'special' char grilled oysters did not appear on the menu (I heard about it on Fox6) . Oyster shooters had great spice but super small oysters that were served on top of the glass. Char grilled had good flavor but the size of the oyster made it a difficult dish to make. The raw selection was three species served with three great choices of condiments but no crackers. My first set came out in cold water instead of ice, no oyster fork/spoon, and none were separated from the shell...I had to wait for some utensils to do it myself. Second set I requested they be separated, and most were (and the ice was not melted). Tried their special mini 'tinis'. The coffee (on tap) was great! The 'vegetable infused' evidently is an acquired taste. ‍. Their bourbon 'tini' was delicious (but small for a full size cocktail). Music was a bit loud for diner conversation. Bathroom was clean and shared with partner venture pub nextdoor . For those from the Gulf States.... Ya ain't at home no more. For those looking for a quaint new lace with delicate oysters and a relaxed meal...this is your place.

It was one of the most special dining experiences we've ever had in Milwaukee. From the moment we walked in, we felt like we entered the home of an Argentinian chef. In fact, you pretty much having Chef Ana as your own personal chef, with her husband Peter also providing some exceptional hospitality. She came up to our table multiple times during the evening to chat with us and ask us how our meal was. It's pretty amazing that she is the sole chef in the restaurant and is able to prepare all the meals while also checking in with patrons regularly. The food was really good. They have two prefix options, and we went with the paella, with an appetizer, dessert and bottle of rosé. Each course felt thoughtfully curated, beautifully presented, and bursting with authentic flavor. The warm staff and intimacy is something unique and different than anything else we've experienced. It's rare to find a place where you can experience both world-class cuisine and the personal touch of the people behind it. FYI, there is a price to be paid for such wonderful food and service. But for a special occasion, it's well worth the money spent and would be right up near the top of my list. Cavas is truly a hidden gem -- If you're looking for a unique dining experience, I recommend you check it out!

They have outdoor seating, bar seating, and indoor table seating as well. We opted for a table indoors. They had a birthday party happening in the dining room which made for a fun atmosphere. They brought out multiple flaming presentations (a margarita tree with sparkler on top as well as some sort of plaster animal with a flame and shots). Each time they brought out one, they had loud music that they played with the presentation. It didn't bother us but if you want a quiet dinner, this might not be your place. For my dinner, I got the three tacos (carnitas). They were flavorful and delicious. I didn't opt to get the rice and beans with it but honestly, they were plenty filling without it. The service was friendly and as quick as could be expected with the big party going on. Get to it!

    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.

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.

She attended us like a mother would, tenderly and with genuine care. All items we ordered were outstanding. The scallops were like butter, the homemade paste melted in your mouth. Even the homemade French salad dressing was so spectacular that I jokingly asked for a bottle to take home and the waitress brought me a container full of it at no charge. There was no room for dessert but overall what started as an odd experience turned into an excellent adventure through time with amazing food. Don't judge a book by its cover. Do yourself a favor and check out this place.

Then came the soup dumplings. Yum! Steaming hot and a project to eat properly, they are worth the efforts. We ordered the Tom Yum and spicy Korean noodles. The spice on the noodles was mild but it does build on your palette the longer that you eat. The beef was perfectly tender. The soup was wonderfully lemon-grassy and full of flavor. The ladies that sat next to us just ordered a table full of dumplings. I think that's my plan for next time. May it be soon.
