Cozy restaurant, with a bar and many tables available. Pizzas are really good with thin crust and great flavor. Service is good as well - very attentive. Not greatest wine list, but good options. read more

Tre Rivali - Calabrese pizza - Mediterranean Near Me - Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Stopped in here on a Saturday in June for a quick, early dinner before a concert. The patio is beautiful, sunny and comfortable, and the restaurant is part of the Kimpton Journeyman hotel. We had low expectations for a hotel restaurant, but Tre Rivali stands head and shoulders above typical hotel offerings. Service was friendly and staff was helpful and gave great recommendations on which dishes would be fastest. The Lamb Kawarma was absolutely delicious - fresh, tasty and quite filling for 2 people to share as a light dinner (we added a side salad). Getting the check delayed us a little, as our server disappeared and no one else wanted to take over her table. However, we'd definitely go again - but with a little more time to enjoy the food and ambiance. read more

Tre Rivali - Lamb Kawarma; Shirazi Salad - Mediterranean Near Me - Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Another amazing hotel restaurant? Listen. I know this is typically kind of an anomaly. I travel a lot and can attest many, many hotel restaurants are pretty ho-hum. But, I do think that Milwaukee may just be the exception here. And, certainly Tre Rivali, located inside the Journeyman Hotel, is absolutely the exception. Chic and modern with a menu that intrigues and cocktails that delight, I have had many wonderful experiences here. Their meat and cheese boards are epic and well priced. I've ordered and quite enjoyed their scallops that come served with truffled parsnip cream, brown butter, hazelnut, brussels sprout leaves. Divine. It's not a hearty dish, though, so if you tend toward a hearty appetite, I'd recommend a starter of some kind. Or, perhaps dessert? Their cocktails are all well made and they have a firm grasp on the classics (they make a mean classic old fashioned and Manhattan). The service is always lovely. Get to it! read more

I had a credit for breakfast through my The Edit Sapphire Reserve reservation at the Kimpton. I dined solo and my server was such a nice person who consistently and enthusiastically checked on me, refilled my water, and made order suggestions. I had a bagel and lox spread, which was large enough for 2 people (order an extra bagel, but there's enough extras on the board to go a long way). I liked that the cream cheese alrady had chives and dill in it. I took a baklava cheesecake slice to go- one of the most creative cheesecakes that I've ever had. Lots of pistachio, honey, and philo made this a unique and delicious treat. Tre Rivali is one of the better hotel-restaurants that I've been to! read more

For being a hotel restaurant, this place is amazing. Super cute inside, and the food is excellent. Get the olives!

We stopped in expecting a decent experience, but it quickly became clear we weren't welcome. We asked for a table while there were multiple open, and were told they "weren't cleaning those right now." Meanwhile, staff stood around and made no effort to accommodate us. The whole interaction felt dismissive and honestly like they just didn't want to serve us. First impressions matter, and this one was awful. Plenty of other places would gladly take our business .....this one never will again. Welcome to Wisconsin, I guess. read more

Wow! I was absolutely loving our time together with my parent for an amazing dinner at Tre Rivali! From the moment we walked in the service from the staff was warm and inviting. The restaurant is very nice and liked the vibe of the decor. It's relaxed and very nicely decorated. Okay the important part- the menu had so many options that looked great. After a few sips of my amazing old fashioned... which is a must i decided to go the Scallops which were some for the best I have had. We topped it off with the Bondino for dessert... wow !!! Tre Rivali is a must! read more

Came by myself for dinner and loved the overall atmosphere of the place! Indoor and outdoor seating with a variety of choices both low and high top. I appreciated that they had the door open for air flow! Food was delicious! I had the baba ganoush which was made a bit differently than I have had it before (probably cause it was traditionally made) but really loved the jam (sweet!) they mixed in on top, really pulled all the flavors together! campanelle was my favorite, big fan of mushrooms!! And the espresso martini?? MADE PERFECTLY!! My waitress was really great too, gave me good recommendations and took a drink off my tab when I didnt care for it!! Looking forward to coming back :) read more

This restaurant has been on my list for a long time. For our appetizer, we ordered the hummus, which originally only came with 2 small pieces of pita for 3 people ($13). Was a bit surprising, but our waitress kindly brought us more upon asking. Our cocktails were very icy. For my main I ordered the Campanelle, which was very rich and creamy. It was a bit dense for me, but that may just be my taste. Our waitress was very attentive. The space itself is pleasant looking, and I enjoyed the lighting which wasn't striking but nicely dim. read more

Such a disappointment! Reservations for 6 on a Sunday at 1 for my brother's birthday. I had high hopes when the hostess acknowledged the cause for celebration and took us to our table. Our server, Chelsea, was very young and seemed inexperienced. She wasn't terribly attentive, she didn't seem to know much about the food or drinks, and her timing was odd. For example, she placed ketchup and hot sauce on the table a good 20 minutes before the food arrived. The food was fine. Just fine. Nothing special. A tad overpriced. The server announced "last call" at about 2:20, which seemed odd to us. I guess they were closing? Or maybe our server just needed to get home because we didn't see her for a good 20-30 minutes before we left. She never offered dessert, never acknowledged the birthday. In fact, she set the bill down in front of the guest of honor. With $20 brunch entrees, I expect the service to be better. If the food was "to-die-for," I might give the place another chance. But, sadly, that's not the case here. We decided it must cater to the "one and done" tourist crowd. read more

Really good!!! I liked everything we had - it's really nice inside. Make sure to get a reservation on weekends. It wasn't quite enough food for the price for me, but was still good. I loved the pasta, the focaccia, and my husband said his salad was great. read more

My first time coming to Tre Rivali. I will say it was an overall good experience. The chickpea soup, Brussel sprouts, and salad were really good. I thought the broccolini didn't have any seasoning. I think it would have been better with some kind of sauce on the side. The service was great our waitress checked in often. And the overall ambiance was great really easy to talk to someone without other conversations over powering. I will say give TR a try and definitely get the soup! read more

We had a nice meal at Tre Rivali. While the food was good I wouldn't say it reflected the price point. I had the scallops with the ricotta dumplings. The scallops were delicious but not quite sure what the "dumplings" were supposed to be. They looked like extra starchy shell pasta. I liked the vibe of the restaurant, but the circle shaped 2 person tables do seem a bit small after you order wine and a couple small plates. Overall it was fine but probably won't go back. read more

Enjoyed a wonderful "summer-like" night - dining outside. Enjoyed wonderful pizza, pasta, seafood & wine. Lindsey, our Sever, was fantastic! She was so thoughtful, attentive and such a great personality - Thank you Lindsey! Such a pleasure to dine at Tre Rivali. We will be back! read more

I had such an amazing experience coming here! The service was great, the restaurant is gorgeous. It feels like a nice date-night spot. We tried the baba ghanoush, which was very tasty. However, it only came with 2 pieces of pita bread. For each "refill" of pita (aka 2 more pieces) it's an additional $1. That was a small con for me, but worth getting a couple extra pieces. The campanelle pasta was AMAZING. I would return to this restaurant just to get the pasta again. It was creamy and flavorful. would highly recommend if you like mushrooms read more

Tre Rivali - Campanelle - Mediterranean Near Me - Milwaukee, Wisconsin

What a cool mediterranean place in the journeyman hotel. Love the vibe anesthetics. Hostess and servers were quite friendly and informative. Reservations are recommended and I see why. It's pretty popular! The portions are definitely on the small side so if you're looking at yelp photos that aren't recent you might be surprised, and need to order extra sides. Baba Ganoush with pita bread was pretty good but not enough pita comes with it so if you ask for more bread it's $2 per pita . The swordfish is pretty much a half portion for $28 and topped with pearl onions which wasn't really an accompaniment. The pizza was a good portion and better choice for a fulfilling meal and the ricotta dumplings are also a small portion but quite tasty. If I went back it would just be for the pizza. read more

We were excited to try this place for dinner with some friends after only going for breakfast/brunch in the past. It is a lovely restaurant with a classic feel, the space is broken up enough that you don't feel like you're dining in a large restaurant. Dining on a Friday night we made sure to make a reservation. It was just starting to get busy when we arrived and by time we left the restaurant was full. We visited during downtown dining week and was pleasantly surprised with the delicious options available on the special menu and the regular menu. We all ordered something different, some from the dining week menu and others from the regular menu. I order the arancini, truffle mushroom pizza, and the butter cake from the dining week menu. The arancini was good but felt like it was missing something on flavor for the sauce. The truffle mushroom was bigger than I expected but very good. The butter cake was also delicious but very dense. I definitely left full. read more

Went to Tre Rivali last minute on a Friday night. We had been here in the summer and it was ok. Dinner tonight was great! As an app we had the Labneh and roasted beets. We shared the pappardelle bolognese and hanger steak. Both were great. My wife forced me to have dessert with a glass of Tokaji. Delish! read more

I had the most amazing date night here. The service was great, our waitress gave us solid recommendations and the food was top tier!

The portions were good too and we definitely left stuffed! I'll be back for sure! read more

I really enjoyed my time at Tre Rivali! My friend ordered a glass of white wine and I ordered the Mare Nostrum G&T and it was super yummy! We also got the focaccia to start and were surprised the red tomato sauce was served cold. But the bread was good! We both ended up ordering the Campanelle. It was delicious, the pasta was very fresh and I loved the mushrooms in the dish. The Patatas Bravas was super delicious, I loved the sauce it came with as well. I'd definitely come here again for a special occasion or date night. read more

I visited Tre Rivali on the evening of August 9th, and had a wonderfully abundant experience. I had seen great reviews for the restaurant on Instagram beginning in April and May of this year, and was surprised that I never knew of its location in the Third Ward. I am seemingly impressed with the growth of restaurants in the Third Ward, and Tre Rivali adds beautifully to the dining options. My three girlfriends and I decided to visit this new-to-us restaurant to celebrate our friendship, girlhood and Italian food, and Tre Rivali delivered a great ambiance and service. We were seated on the outside patio next to the sidewalk as the weather was perfect, and the patio was lined with beautiful red flowers (as seen behind the white wine in the photos) blocking most of the view of the street. I thought the sidewalk between our table and the restaurant was going to be busy but it was not busy at all. We ordered the House Made Focaccia Bread, Cheese and Charcuterie Board, and the Little Gem Caesar Salad for appetizers, and the charcuterie board was definitely my favorite. Our waiter explained the characteristics of the different cheeses and meats on the board, and the board also came with berries, nuts, fruit compote, mustard and more. My favorite aspect of the board was the honeycomb, and everything on the board was extremely fresh and flavorful. At first glance the crackers that came with the plate were not my first choice, but their length and width made it much easier for us to create different mixtures of meat, cheese and fruit than a different cracker would have. The caesar salad was also incredibly fresh and flavorful, and I'm not a huge fan of focaccia bread in general so it was very average to me. For drinks we ordered the Port de Palma and Sangria Rosada cocktails, as well as the L'aumonier Sauvignon Blanc, Touraine, FR and the Evermore zero proof cocktail. The Port de Palma is seriously the best paloma I have ever had. It was refreshing, you could adequately taste the grapefruit, lime, and rosemary, and it looked beautiful too. The Sauvignon Blanc, Evermore, and Sangria Rosada were also all delicious, but I was blown away by the paloma. We ordered the Margherita and Quattro Formaggi Rossa pizzas for our entrees and following the theme of the night... they were perfect. The pizzas were perfectly cooked throughout, the ingredients were extremely fresh, and they were both savory and perfectly salty. I feel as though I had high hopes before dining at this restaurant, but the experience truly exceeded my expectations. At Tre Rivali it is easily seen that every person working there puts time and effort into paying attention to small details to make the most of their customers' meals and experiences. I cannot wait to return. read more

Brunch: I wish I could do more than 5 stars. The drinks, food, and service were exceptional. The old fashioned and beet martini were our favorite cocktails.

The restaurant itself is clean and aesthetically pleasing. The food was very mid for us. The bread was incredibly salty. The squid ink was just okay. But the biggest issue was the service. They may have been down servers. But we had a reservation that we had to wait a bit for, and it took 29 minutes to get our drinks once we sat. That is just too long. Also the server said they would stage our food if we wanted to order everything at once and that just didn't happen. It's an expensive restaurant for that many issues IMHO. read more

Restaurant is located on the third ward street and is one of my favorite go tos whenever I visit Milwaukee. I just absolutely adore the taste of the pastas especially the carbonara. You can not go wrong with any of the main entrees. My friend went with the dumplings so there are "vegan" options in case you are considering. Would like to point out that this place has exceptional customer service. I accidentally booked the wrong date for a reservation(brain fart) but the waitresses at the front did their best to make accommodations. The hummus was not out of the world but it still tasted met our expectations. Drinks were not the best either but it's a nice addition. I would really go here for the entrees and desserts. read more

Tre Rivali is a solid dinner spot in the Third Ward neighborhood. It offers an interesting mix of broadly Mediterranean dishes, from Italian inspired pasta, to labneh, baba ghanoush and much more. The place trends a bit more upscale. It is on the pricier side, although certainly not unreasonably expensive. I have been to Tre Rivali several times, and in general have enjoyed my visits. However, I have two major issues: 1. I find many of their dishes to be overly salty. This seems to be a problem largely with their sauces. This might not be a problem for everyone, but I really don't enjoy when the saltiness takes over the other flavors. 2. The menu at Tre Rivali is not very diet inclusive. It is pretty standard these days to at least mark on your menus which dishes are vegetarian, but Tre Rivali doesn't do this. Last time I went, I asked the server if their Caesar salad was vegetarian. She said yes, but I am pretty sure the dressing had anchovies in it. Having this marked clearly on the menu would solve issues like this Overall, these issues don't take away from the overall quality of Tre Rivali, which is a really great option for a nice dinner in the Third Ward! read more

Came by this spot for a little date night with the wife since we weren't able to go to our usual Italian spot near by. Anyways, on entering the space I recall smelling a nice wood burn from the wood fired pizza oven which was pleasant. Started off with some really excellent cocktails and appetizers (lamb based sausage on some charred pita and a tasty beet dish). Honestly had we stopped at that point, it would have been a 5 star experience, however once the pasta and pizza came out we left feeling underwhelmed and unsatisfied. Pasta was very small in portion, and never have I ever had a potato pizza. Both seemed to be over seasoned, which was odd considering the balance of the appetizers we had ahead of time. Anyways, awesome cocktails, apps, and vibes. Bummer on the main courses. 'Til next time, cheers! read more

I was in town for a bachelorette party. We had intended to go elsewhere but it was closed during the Memorial Day weekend. Wah wah. Alas, a member of our bachelorette party suggested Tre Rivali, and boy did it not disappoint. Brunch is served Saturday & Sunday (8 AM-2PM) We were seated right away. The ambiance inside felt posh and oozed charisma. But the menu pricing overall was very reasonable. Can't beat that! I ordered the Avocado Toast -- marinated cherry tomato, radish, fresh sourdough, basil, everything bagel seasoning with an egg. Delish. The perfect portion. I also savored a cup of La Colombe Coffee. (NEVER disappoints.) Additionally-- we shared the Artisanal Cheese & Charcuterie Board. So fresh and delightful! I am still dreaming of that mustard... as well as the fruit compotes, pickles, honeycomb and cheeses. Word to the wise. ORDER THE PANCAKES. So light and fluffy: a true Tre Rivali staple. The hotel attached to this restaurant hosts many NBA teams when they're in MKE. That is a fan favorite. (Allegedly some of them even take dozens to-go, back home.) Overall, the only low note was our waitress was a bit slow and not super knowledgeable. But-- I wouldn't hold it against the restaurant. It happens. Overall, Tre Rivali hits the spot and surpasses all expectations as a 'hotel restaurant.' I'll be popping in the next time I'm in MKE, so should you! read more

Love coming here for brunch whenever we are in Milwaukee. We enjoy their omelettes, and find them super filling. I always get the mediterranean one and my friend gets the farmers omelette. Personally like my eggs a bit more cooked but still pretty high on the omelette ratings list. It's usually pretty busy but we came by on a saturday and had no issues getting a table. Very friendly service and has great outdoor seating as well as indoors. Nicely decorated and we will continue stopping by. read more

I finally tried out Tre Rivali during a girls' night and was impressed. The atmosphere is stunning - feels intimate yet airy somehow. The food is also delicious. I got the Dirty Za'atar Martini which was a fun and flavorful twist. We split a few different items: Focaccia, Whipped Farmer's Cheese, Hummus, Ricotta Dumplings, and Woodfired Branzino. The focaccia was dry and lackluster, but everything else was incredible. I particularly loved the Whipped Farmer's Cheese which was the perfect combo of sweet, salty, and savory. My only gripe? We got asked if we wanted more bread with our cheese. We were charged for the additional bread - and another $5 for "bread service." read more

LOVEE the atmosphere and service here. Our waitress was very helpful in providing suggestion and insight on the menu. Food came out SOO quickly. We ordered the butternut squash soup, margarita pizza, whipped riccotta, Campanella and sides, highly recommend the pizza and patatas bravas which came with a delicious sauce. For dessert we ordered the butter cake, baklava cheesecake, cappuccino and latte. I suggest the butter cake over the baklava cheesecake because the pistachio glaze it was served with was too dense of a flavor read more
