Omaha, NE
6/18/2010 After strolling around the Milwaukee Riverwalk and checking out the menus of everything that appeared open, we decided to come back here, and were very pleased with our decision to do so!
Despite reading the menu before coming in, it still took us quite awhile to decide what to order because three of the four of us were torn between two different things that sounded equally good. We ended up asking our attentive and helpful server for help deciding, and her recommendations were definitely good.
I got the Shrimp BLT, which featured "Grilled Gulf Shrimp with Applewood Smoked Bacon, Mixed Greens, Tomato, and Pesto Mayonnaise on Panini Bread." (I can't resist a good pesto!) They were out of panini, so I got it on pretzel bread instead, and it was really excellent.
After hemming and hawing for awhile between the Chedder Apple Burger (White Cheddar and Maple Roasted Apples) and the Peppercorn-Boursin Burger (Boursin Cheese and Red Grape Mustard), my husband finally settled on the Boursin, which came out beautifully medium-rare and even better than my shrimp BLT. Damn, what a burger!
One of our friends got the Waldorf Salad, which she said was delicious but had a little too much dressing for her taste, and our vegetarian friend got the Gorgonzola Grilled Cheese. She was a little concerned about how it might taste on pretzel bread instead of panini, but ended up loving it.
I don't know when I'll make it back to Milwaukee, but if I do, we'll definitely be planning a return trip!

6/15/2010 This is definitely one of those under-appreciated restaurants that I truly hope makes it big. We came here during happy hour where drafts are half off and appetizers are 2 for 1. So naturally, we ordered beers and apps! We were seated in a modern lounge type area with a fireplace in the background. For apps, we got the PEI mussels- the only disappointment of the night, prob would forgo this; duck quesadillas- beautiful presentation, the cilantro cream sauce was amazing; door county white fish pate- crusts of bread with smokey (maybe a bit too smokey) fish pate covered with melted cheddar; crab cakes- savory, crispy, our favorite dish of the night.
They have specials just about every night, my next visit there will be for $2 tacos!
