Best Open Kitchen Restaurants in Wauwatosa

Incredible experience top to bottom. Highly recommend for any occasion

We haven’t been to this location since it was Pieces of Eight back in the 80!s. Harbor House is such a great reimagining of the space. The decore and layout is elegant and energetic with the open kitchen concept well executed. Service was above and beyond, with the kitchen and staff offering to make a perfectly executed off-menu item (shrimp alfredo) for my daughter on a busy Saturday night. I asked for a menu change as well, and they happily agreed. The food was all A+, with all 6 people greatly enjoying their meals and wine selections.

As usual, the food was exceptional! The menu is always creative and unique! The server was attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. Atmosphere lively! I have been enjoying Bavette’s for years and really love the new location! Can’t wait to visit again!

Everything was perfect. The service was impeccable and the food was awe-inspiring. The grilled honey nut squash was excellent as was the focaccia and ricotta. The ricotta filled pasta was amazing!! We had the contamar fish and the walleye and we were blown away. I love that the chef uses local fish instead of flying in some Chilean Seabass or something. It was all so delicious. I can’t wait to go back. After living in San Francisco for 18 years, I moved to Milwaukee recently. I was a little worried about the culinary scene, but Birch is absolutely at the top of the restaurant game in every way. They would fit right in and even stand out in SF or Napa.

Food was awesome, even the small things such as Carrots were wonderful. Waitress was outstanding as well. evertyhing was great
