This landmark in MKE has been my go to for 22 years! Love the art that changes. Don’t miss the Alfredo Burger. It’s to die for!
We literally stumbled upon this delightful place on Thanksgiving evening. Our first visit to Milwaukee and we were hungry but everyone was closed. It was the
B E S T experience of our entire trip. 💕

1st timer! Nice restaurant, nice atmosphere, interesting location based on parking. Parking is somewhat of a hassle which for me personably would stop me from going. We were a party of 3 and spent a total of $95 for lunch! Gratuity of 18% is added and labeled as “Service charge” please pay attention to your bills. I understand businesses need to make their money and also that people are terrible at leaving tips overall that can be a little much.
For the food, I ordered a Sidecar to drink (recommended by word of mouth) 10/10! For my personal meal I ordered a pork chop sandwich without the mustard and Glad I did! I personally am not a fancy Dijon mustard person and got it on the side and for the sandwich it was too much. I ordered the pork chop well cooked with grilled onions, the bread & pork chop was cooked to perfection but my onions didn’t come grilled they came burnt but overall the sandwich minus the mustard 9/10! The garnish tbh was pathetic and not necessary. Jamison was our server and he was a cool individual. Thanks Elsa on the park glad I was able to visit!
The drinks were well done with a wide selection of cocktails and wine to choose from. Something to pair with every meal, the Galette and Greens, was a great starter and definitely stole the show. Burgers were made well to order, though could have been improved upon in some of their simpler forms; though, the modular structure of the Au Poivre allows a lot of creativity on the patrons' side. Did not have room for dessert, but will definitely return. Service was attentive and quick, though the atmosphere felt a bit more tailored towards a lively night out. All in all, will return, this is a worthwhile experience for the money.
I hadn't been here in 20 years. Their service was still 5 star ⭐ & the food was flawless. The host was very attentive & Kind!! Our server was good too. The food was so delicious. The desert had me talking about coming back for more. Wonderful experience for our anniversary. Reasonably priced. Great portions. People brought kids but it's really not the kind of place for kids.
Cute date spot. The people I met at the bar are regulars and enjoyed the food. We got the wing platter. I enjoyed the ginger soy wings the most. Wouldn't mind going back to try other dishes.
I Absolutely Love Elsas. Great Atmosphere. My Fave Staff Are De'Adre, John Sr & John Jr. Always Welcoming, Friendly And Accommodating. If You Are Served By These Guys, The Service Will Always Be Top Tier. I'm A Regular, So I've Pretty Much Had Every Thing On The Menu, But My Faves Are Always The Buck N Teriyaki Wings And Must Have Golden Gate Cake. After You Have Cocktails From Here And Go Else Where Nothing Else Will Be Up To Par. Starburst & Lemon Drop Martinis Are My Absolute Fave. I Love The Different Artwork They Display On Their Walls. My Go To Spot Whether I Am Alone, Date Night Or Girls Night Out.
Cute and quaint spot on the park. While known for their martinis, they also have lots of delicious and healthy lunch options and are used to business lunches so can get you served efficiently. Was curious to see that the gratuity was already included for our lunch for 2, so don't accidentally double tip.
I called before getting there and asked about what has become one of my favorite drinks “ Lavender Gimlet” I prefer it made with tequila instead of gin the taste great Bartenders are wonderful atmosphere is exquisite!
Haven’t been in awhile and just as great as I remember! Our server Aiden was wonderful and attentive, even on a crazy Saturday night, and John was very welcoming at the door. Still one of the best places in Milwaukee whether you want drinks, dinner, dessert or all three. Great service and experience always.
Our group of five arrived 5 minutes after opening on Sunday night and the restaurant was already half full. Been at least 10 years since last visit and yet Elsa's felt familiar and comfortable.
Overall a good experience. Main issue was the service. Not with our server, but with the time it took to get our food. Our two appetizers took nearly 30 minutes to arrive and the entrees an hour. We did enjoy the food once it arrived.
Bonus: the holiday decorations in the park across the street were beautiful.
The drinks are well worth their price, the food is good- elevated classics but nothing too fancy. The waitstaff is generally great as well, but it does seem like a loose work environment despite their uniforms. We’ve had a waiter who was definitely high on something, but it was fun, and the last time I went I caught my waiter literally shoving his hand into the jar of olives at the bar and eating them while he waited for drinks… he also made direct eye contact with me afterwards like “yeah, I did that”. Lol. One of those places you go for entertainment in addition to great cocktails and yummy food. And the desserts are delicious!
