Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Nashotah

First time eating there on Jan. 1, 2025 for a birthday meal with family of 7, three generations present. Even mid-day, it was quite loud inside due to music and talking, but we were in a corner, so that helped us be able to hear each other. Our server, Sydney, was friendly and efficient, very top-notch. Everything was well-paced. The food was generally very good to excellent, including two appetizers, six different entrees, and three shared desserts. The birthday girl, unfortunately, had a very, very dry beef brisket sandwich; too dry to even want to finish it. However, there were many stand-out items that will bring us back: the bruschetta bites, the home-made chips, pizza, the raspberry fizz cocktail, key lime pie, and the bread pudding. I can imagine that outside dining during the summer would be delightful.

To be honest, I was unsure what to expect. Several (about 5) years ago the experience had not been pleasant. So decided to try again; I’m very glad I did - it was an awesome experience. The drinks, their specials, were superb. The waitress was knowledgeable about the menu, great recommendations. The meal came quickly, everything that should have been hot was, I had a beet salad with feta cheese that was to die for. We splurged on a very nice bottle of wine, my wife’s roasted chicken she said was delicious and while there were two lobster selections, the waitress helped me make a good decision - the result was fantastic, both in size, appearance & taste. Admittedly we spent more than I intended, however it was worth every dollar! Oh I should mention the small but nice raw bar; I have some familiarity with oysters and the NB selection was excellent. I rarely leave this long or detailed review, however, we will definitely return to the Milwaukee Harbor House and strongly recommend it to anyone who wants a great restaurant experience!!

12/24/24: Lauren was great, as usual, and Ryan the GN gets his sleeves rolled up and helps it all work. Since moving from el país vasco this is as close as I’ll get to going back to northern basque coast. Worth every penny including the 18% inclusive tariff. Josh & Julie Ugalde Mequon, WI
