    hot smoked salmon dip
    Lindsey R.

    Yappy Hour ALL day Wednesdays. We got oysters and the hot smoked salmon dip and some dranks. Wine was $2 off pours! Such a cute spot for drinks and apps and oysters. Our server was super nice and attentive too. Cute, dark and cozy inside. Would be a great first date spot if you both like oysters!

    Checked out this spot and grabbed a burger to go. The OK Burger comes with waffle fries and it is full of flavor. The restaurant is adjacent to the Crafty Cow, same owner. It gives a more personal feel for the dining experience. Plenty of tables and great use of space. There is also a bar on that side. The service was great. Finn was knowledgeable and very friendly.

    Burger with lobster
    Frankie B.

    What a cute, eclectic new spot on north avenue. We ordered half a dozen oysters and enjoyed all of them, they were so fresh! My husband got the burger with lobster and it was SO good and unique, I got the lobster rolls and I highly recommend them. Definitely try to visit during their yappy hour, as they have really great deals twice a day. Not only was the food great, the service from Raih was AMAZING! she was so friendly and made the whole experience better, she even read my husband like a book and made him a manhattan LOL!

    Mini'tini
    Dewayne E.

    A great date place. A small quiet place with 3 tables and a small bar area and small menu. But the food is very good. We ordered the Smoked Whitefish Dip that is served with crackers, shrimp cocktail and the Smoked Fish Trio Platter. Also had the mini'tini, which is a small version of their Outlaw Dirty Martini. The food is wonderful and has great flavor. Finn, our server was absolutely the best server/bartender. Outlaw Oyster will be on the list for date night dining.

    Outlaw beer and daily spritz.
    Liz P.

    This location is inside Crafty Cow. The smell when you walked in to the spot for Outlaw smelled kind of like stale beer. The table we sat at was very sticky (I know that can happen with certain types of finishing on tables so not docking them for that). We were greeted with a complimentary tasting of their house wine which was really tasty. We ordered the daily spritz and the outlaw beer, both were good. For food, we ordered all four of the daily oysters, the octopus aguachile, and the octopus hotdog sandwich. Oysters and aguachile were both fantastic; however, the chips with the aguachile were so over salted we found ourselves brushing off salt before dipping. The octopus hotdog was pretty disappointing. The octopus was pretty over cooked and had the consistency of jerky. We only had a few bites and then ate the toppings and roll. It was pretty disappointing for the price of the sandwich ($24) and the place specializing in seafood. The sandwich was also topped with roe. The roe was fishier than it should have been and pretty off putting. All in all, we haven't had a lot of good experiences at Crafty Cow and if we had known they were the same group, we probably wouldn't have gone in the first place.

    Daily spritz
    Stephanie R.

    Great new spot, get here early! The oyster's offered are unique, fresh, and the staff will recommend the best oysters (who are we kidding they're all good!). An oyster happy hour is all you need. Loved the smoked salmon plate, mini martinis, and spritz options. The lobster roll sliders were good but not $35 good. I was a bit disappointed in the amount of lobster presented. The hand cut chips were decent. Overall Outlaw Oyster is a vibe for happy hour oyster deals and you have to try the smoked salmon plate. I will definitely be back when the weather is warmer.

    The food was brought out quickly and was incredible! We sat in the nook by the bar and I loved this table so much! By all the cute decorations!

    I was so excited to try this place! I love that it is a smaller, more intimate spot. The food was amazing and the staff were super friendly. We had oysters that were really fresh, a tin fish app, and the Cajun salmon on special for happy hour. All the food was exactly what we wanted. Since we came during happy hour, we were also able to try the, "tiny tinis" which were adorable and delicious. We will definitely be visiting again!

    Way overpriced for what we got. The service was basic even though they weren't busy. I'd call this "not ready for prime time".

Needless to say, it was crowded and lively, but our table was waiting for us and we were sat immediately. Our server was friendly, attentive, and very helpful with our menu choices, which were limited due to their Madi Gras-only offerings, but also plentiful and varied. My husband decided on the jambalaya, I went with the crawfish étouffée, and we split the roasted Cajun cauliflower as an appetizer. While it's hard for this kind of stew-like, saucy, veggie/sausage/seafood over rice mixtures to present beautifully, everything looked, smelled, and tasted delicious. The jambalaya had a little more of a kick than I prefer, but my husband loved it and my crawfish étouffée had the perfect amount of spice without being spicy. The roasted cauliflower was cooked to perfection and was the perfect way to start the meal. Not pictured is the bananas foster bread pudding that was the perfect way to end it. We both left with extra food to take home and the memory of a wonderful meal and great experience.

Our server was great and the manager came by while we were eating to ask how things were and see if we needed anything. Only thing with server was I did ask 3 times for more water, would have been nice if he just saw and refilled. We started with the hush puppies and meatballs. The hush puppies came with a really interesting sauce. The cheese, flavor and texture were great. The chicken meatballs were good also had a nice sauce. I got the 4pc Pressure Fried Chicken sub collard greens for Mac n cheese to share. They nicely split the meal on two separate plates for us. The fried chicken was really good with a delicious crispy breading. The biscuit and Mac n cheese were alright. The Mac n cheese was nothing special at all. The mashed potatoes and gravy were good, potato skins mixed in. Enjoyed the food and variety of options!

That didn't seem to be a problem. I didn't try everything. I liked the noodles I got. The sushi was decent (I had the cooked sushi). They had a nice selection of desserts. My friend said she'll come back with her kids. I don't think I will. I'd rather have everything cooked fresh. The fried things I tried (gyoza and eggrolls) were too chewy, they didn't taste bad, but the texture was off. The exception was the rangoons, they were crispy. The desserts were ok. The best was the prepackaged ice cream. I'm glad i tired l tried it. It looked like the families with kids were really enjoying it. I'm sure, as a kid, I would have too.

My date had requested during the reservation to be seated by a window but they had us seated at a rounder and bigger table that felt a little goofy for two people to be seated in. But we asked our server, Aracely, if we would be able to move to the window seating and they helped arrange that for us. We decided to order the Crispy Fried Berkshire Pork Belly as our starter and the Grilled Whole Mediterranean Branzino and the Seafood Pappardelle as our main entrees. For drinks, we decided to get the cranberry kiss. Surprisingly, both of our dishes were pretty filling! The seafood Pappardelle, had lobster, scallops, shrimp, and octopus. It was on the heavier side, but the noodles that they paired with it, was absolutely amazing. The Branzino was nicely grilled, but wasn't dry on the inside.

For only $6, they serve a full sized portion which is one of the best values on the menu and an absolute steal for the quality you receive. The burger comes with caramelized onions, American cheese, crispy onions, au poivre sauce, garlic-herb aioli on a sesame milk bun (Note: one order per guest). From the happy hour menu, I also ordered the Halibut Fish Fry and the Shrimp Cocktail. The Shrimp Cocktail had a sweet and chili cocktail vinaigrette, which I really enjoyed. From the dinner menu, I had the Kale Cashew Caesar, Lobster Pot Pie, and the Ora King Salmon. To my surprise, the star of the show was the Kale Cashew Caesar, which staff recommended. What made this dish so special was the generous mound of shaved Gran Moravia piled on top, complemented by lemon breadcrumbs. The combination and texture was so fun to eat. The Lobster Pot Pie is offered at market price ($55 when I went). They give you generous chunks of butter-poached lobster tails, seasonal vegetables, lobster cream in their truffle puff pastry. The Ora King Salmon was also delicious. Salmon was cooked perfectly--light and moist. I enjoyed the black garlic gnocchi and the apple gastrique that came with this dish. I ended the night with their chai banana caramel creme brulee. I'll definitely be back for their happy hour and that Kale Cashew Caesar!

Ambience was cools and laid back at night, there was some soft jazz playing. Order 2 jerk salmon burgers and some wings with the "crab it your way" sauce. Flavor was on point for both. Wings were delicious and super crispy, just like I ordered. The burgers, although they were good, they were small for $18. Fries were decent, but a bit on the greasy side.

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.

She came up to our table multiple times during the evening to chat with us and ask us how our meal was.

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.

Came on a Monday night with a friend. Food: Really like the menu. Lots of diversity to choose from, and the prices are reasonable. We started with a couple of specialty cocktails. I had the Sazerac, and my friend had the OG Old Fashioned. Both were well made, and there was plenty of alcohol in each. For an appetizer, we got the Frogs on the Mound, which, as you can imagine, is 1/2 lb of frog legs on haystack onion rings. I haven't had frog legs in a while, and I thought these were very good. The breading was light, well seasoned, and not overcooked. The haystack onion rings were just okay. They could have been hotter and maybe seasoned (or just salted) a bit more. For our entrees, I got the Blackened Catfish, and he got the Grouper Tacos. Both of these meals were also very good. The blackened fish was the best part of my meal. It was excellently seasoned, cooked to the right temperature, and moist and flaky. Delicious! The collard greens were good, but would have been better with just a bit more pork. More pork is always better. The rice and beans were good too, but the temperature was less than hot. My friend enjoyed his Grouper Tacos, and the bite he shared with me was very good, except for the green peppers. I much prefer orange or yellow peppers, but I realize that's a personal taste issue. The tacos tasted fresh, the fish was tender, and the portions were good. Service: The place was about a quarter full. Even though we weren't in a hurry, the service got off to a bit of a slow start. After getting waters and menus, it took a while for our server to get back to us. I started to worry that this might be an issue for the rest of the evening, so I made a point of getting their attention. After that, things went smoothly. After ordering appetizers and entrees, the food came out in a timely fashion. All the staff we interacted with were helpful and friendly. Thanks, Sarah 1 and Sarah 2 :) Atmosphere: Besides the separate bar area, the dining room is a big open space with lots of four-top tables spread around. Around the walls there are posters, art pieces, and plenty of Mardi Gras beads. I wasn't sure at the time, but there was something a bit cramped about the interior. After looking at the pictures, I think it might have to do with the low, tiled ceiling. (I think this is the first time I have ever mentioned something about a tiled ceiling.) On this night, it was quiet and easy to have a comfortable conversation. Glad that we finally stopped in for a meal. With the exception of the initial service delay and some small issues with a couple of food items, it was a very good meal. Would definitely want to stop back again to try other parts of the menu.
