    It is always a treat for us to dine at Ward's. We celebrated our 21st anniversary last night. The food was outstanding as always. The carrot cake to finish was ridiculous. We enjoyed the opportunity to see Brian himself. We are never disappointed!

    Hands down my favorite restaurant in Milwaukee. There is no better place for prime rib anywhere, it’s simply the best. Always great service, I just love this place.

    Our server Genesis was wonderful. She was lovely and enjoyable to talk with. Beyond Genesis this establishment was very disappointing. I had the Veal Marsala which had very unusual cuts of veal. The cuts were like small medallions instead of thinly sliced. The quality of the cut was very tough with quite a lot of gristle. The medium steak ordered was undercooked and very much like medium rare. Can say the carrot cake was quite good but the coffee was lukewarm. Cannot recommend, too many other great restaurants around.

    Menu offered many entree options besides prime rib. The prime rib was exceptional. The scallops were somewhat on the small side and a bit “chewy”.
