About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Innovative
  • Great for creative cocktails
What started out as a butcher shop concept, has evolved and changed over the years to become a full-service restaurant, which was solidified with the restaurant's move to a larger space in 2022. At Bavette, the consumer will enjoy complete transparency of its food moving from farm to plate. Although the butcher shop has been phased out, the restaurant still works with the same farms, and uses the same high quality meats on its menu, which consists of a daily changing menu consisting of salads, sandwiches, small plates, pates, cheese, and charcuterie boards. The restaurant truly is a farm-to-table restaurant, sourcing not only the meat but most of its produce from nearby farms. In addition to the highly seasonal menu, there is a small store featuring chef-curated retail items, such as Wisconsin cheeses, local charcuterie, artisanal jams, pickles, salts, vinegar, and oil. Going along with the thoughtful menu is a select and unique offering of craft beers, wines, and cocktails.

    Always a great meal. Bavette is one of my favorite places to eat. Food is always delicious and the staff is always wonderful. I hope they never get rid of that Korean steak sandwich. It's so good.

    I love the creativeness of the food. The hummus and pickled veg plate was a great start. The carrot salad was sooo flavorful. I had the lamb and tomato ragout. It was tasty, but I would have liked a bit more “pop” to the dish as I felt the flavors were a bit muddled. Our service was right on.
