Review Palomino - Milwaukee

This fish fry is amazing!! We also enjoyed the fired pickles and wings. I’d highly recommend this for anyone looking for a yummy Wisconsin fish fry.

First off, the staff here are phenomenal! Super welcoming and outrageously helpful. I asked if they had a flight of whiskey available and they helped make it happen, and they've got a great selection of whiskey. Also, the hot fried chicken is delicious!

😘😘😘😘😘+ Oooooooh man what a great place. The food choices were fabulous, and an Amazing original take on many of the entrees. The the food was tasty and hot, except for the salad Which was delicious but not hot 😁, The vinegarette was magnificent! Delicious French fries, I had a triple Burger And fries done to perfection, my wife had the fried pickles and the fried artichoke garden salad. A couple of ice cold Miller's, and my wife had her water and coffee as usual. Honorable mention for the coffee, some of the best I've had out! The sticker says hate free zone, And, they were correct. I met some really interesting people and had a couple of really enjoyable conversations. This is how strangers should interact, love your neighbor!

There is a reason this crew gets props for their cheese curds. Delicious! The Mexican street corn side was great as well. A great add on to get to share if you’re dining with a friend as it’s a generous portion. Hot chicken sandwich has homemade pickles that I could eat all day!

So excited that this place is serving food again. Although they are only serving their brisket burger, hot fried chicken sandwich, tots and pie...they are all excellent choices! Looking forward to going back again, even if it's just for a sandwich.

Stopped in to get a quick bite to eat before a show. PHENOMENAL brisket burger & fries. Super tender & juicy. Almost had to order a second one. Highly recommend!

Palomino is a great local bar in a fantastic neighborhood in Bayview. Unpretentious, Palomino is purported to have a good kitchen, but we didn't eat on this particular evening. Henry was our barkeep when I sat down with two friends. He served great drinks and answered my questions with aplomb. I love living in Bayview.

Food and service are always good! Fried chicken is delicious, definitely one of the main reasons I like to go. Drinks are also well served and the outside seating offers a more casual dining experience.

Family loves it so I sent out the wedding invites. Love the vegan & vegetarian options. Great drink selection - currently limited, but strong & delightful to sip. Ate here solo & the intersection gave plenty of entertainment. Fantastic food & fun outdoor dining atmosphere.

Great service, crispy, fluffy tots. I got the beyond burger for the first time and I'm just not a fan- not palomino's fault! When I ate meat, I used to get their double brisket burger and it was *chef's kiss*. They also have Oatmeal Cream Pies (OCPs as I affectionately call them) and they were very tasty. If they ever don't have them and you're craving an elevated experience, check out Baked Whims. Lisa sometimes makes them and they're so tasty.

Great vibes both external and internal! Whiskey sour was perfectly made. Solid vibe to watch sports or get a meal in. Had the fried chicken sandwich. It was delicious but did not feel good after.

If you find yourself at Palomino, get one of their sandwiches - they’re all delicious and filling. Whether it’s the pulled pork, fried chicken, PBLT or veggie po-boy - you can’t wrong. Their burgers are very good as well. I’d also highly recommend the pimento mac and cheese as a side. Great selection of tap beers and specialty cocktails. Service here is also top notch. We were checked on frequently and all of our needs were met. Our server was friendly and attentive.

Everything was tasty and quick. Fries were great, (and I'm picky) and the biscuit and collard greens with the hot chicken were soooooo good. Definitely will come back. Good vegan/vegetarian options as well. Was able to bring my dog by sitting outside.

Still living a Covid life style where many places are starting to open up a bit more. For the price of the drink to the serving size, I feel there is something more missing. Food was very tasty with a kick. Definitely more substantial and more flavorful but again would have loved to see more of a post Covid change.

The food, staff and atmosphere are second to none not to mention the bourbon selection!! Highly recommended.

Nice atmosphere and waiter. Waits weren’t too long. Huge huge selection of Whiskies, Bourbon, Scotch, etc… if you have a friend who’s visiting that likes them definitely take them here. I ordered their PBLT which was tasty… admittedly though I wish the Pimento Cheese was thicker / more prominent.. I couldn’t taste any pimento in it either.

Place is decent. If you want a quick bite and more of a bar setting this place will do it.

Save the trip to Nashville for real hot chicken in Wisconsin, who'd a thunk it? Options for vegan were good too. Cold beer and eclectic decour with good service round things out l.

I only gave it 4 starts because since they have a much smaller menu and don't have the same type of awesome tatter totts they used to pre covid. But hopefully over time they will be able to bring more of the old menu items back.

My friend and I came her for dinner last night -- delicious! We debated getting the fried chicken -- it smelled WONDERFUL and the dinner looked heavenly... but if we did that, there'd be no room for appetizer or pie. So maybe next time... and maybe then we'll try the floats -- root beer or orange, with bourbon or rum added in -- but this time, we shared an appetizer of fried cheese curds with tomato jam. Unusual pairing, but so, so good. And the curds themselves were delicious, with a light, crispy batter and lovely melty insides. Kept the cheese theme going with a PBLT -- a BLT with pimento cheese. Best pimento cheese I've had since leaving Tennessee... I saved half for lunch today (and it was just as good today, warmed up). That left room for the legendary pie. My friend got salted honey, and I got the black & blue (blackberry/blueberry)... and we asked for a knife so we could split them in half. Salted honey was a custardy pie that reminded me of a rich chess pie, with the salt offsetting the sweet. I'd never had blackberries and blueberries in a pie, but this pie made me question what took so long to realize that they were MEANT to be together. My bourbon old-fashioned was ALMOST enough to convert me from my brandy preference. Can't wait to come back here when it's a little warmer for the outdoor tables overlooking the park and Lake Michigan. Thanks, Palomino!

The food here is amazing. Great servers and real bartenders with great attitudes. The cocktails are put together with love, care and accuracy. The food is southern inspired with great fried chicken, farm to table with the local farmers,and suppliers. The menu is small but it really does appeal to everyone. A very vegan friendly restaurant. Everything is made from scratch, even the pickles, burgers are 100% brisket ground in house.

Biscuit (it was one large, buttery, perfectly made biscuit) and gravy was outstanding! Nice peppery kick with a bit of cayenne, it seemed. The fresh fruit was full of a mixture of wonderfully ripened berries and a delicious sliced green apple. The service was fun and prompt. Great stuff!

Clean classic bar/restaurant space. Friendly knowledgeable staff, fun tasty menu, good drink selection all at fair prices.

Great food and service here. Sydney is the best! She gave us a wonderful and personal experience. She has a great personality and went above and beyond for us! Thanks so much!

Great food, great beer, the oatmeal pies were awesome. We were in MKE for the Mama Tried show. If I get back I’d definitely eat here again

The food is amazing. Reminded my girlfriend and I of Nashville. Very friendly staff, and great drink menu. One of Milwaukee's better Bloody Mary's.

Used to be our favorite spot for fried chicken, until they took mashed potatoes off the menu. The potatoes have returned but their delicious sausage gravy has been replaced with an odd chicken gravy. The fried chicken and potatoes themselves are still good. I don't see us returning unless the sausage gravy does.

Dah waffles are da bomb! Only been in for breakfast or a drink in last few years. I always like the space. Been dropping in since they opened.

Great meal and cool atmosphere. Half our group is vegan and half are meat eaters. We all loved our meals.

Everything I want from a neighborhood pub: great food, drinks, cozy atmosphere. I've never been disappointed here.

The customers are really friendly...just stopped in for one but one of the customers insisted me on staying for more...thanks for the offer but I had to drive a bit still...

That brisket burger... yes please. Homemade tater tots also fantastic.

other than the service this place was not good. Used to come here quite often. The menu is sub par in comparison to what it was. and i just spent the better part of an hour throwing up the overly smoked beef brisket... no lie that is why i am writing a post. not only could i only eat half, for 8.50 you have to pay 3 bucks for fries... and the food was gross. i will never be returning even after 10 years of patronage

This place with its ever changing college kid employees is great. Awesome food. Good drinks chicken and waffles. Good Bloody Mary. Fill up and take a pretty walk down in Cupertino Park!
