Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
SafeHouse offers a unique, spy-themed experience with an "interactive scavenger hunt" and captivating magic shows. While some reviews highlight "great service" and a "fun atmosphere," the food is often described as basic or overpriced. Ideal for families seeking a novel outing, though culinary enthusiasts might find the menu underwhelming.

    This was our second time here and we were seated in a tiny cramped claustrophobic hole of a table for two. The service was subpar and for one drink each, a burger and a turkey club was $92 dollars with the tip! Never going back again.

    Atmosphere was good, a good place to visit, but not eat. Fish fry cost $20 and I got one piece of fish. Pretzel bites were overcooked, and broccolini salad was a small cup of broccolini with no sauce. Food mediocre at best.

    Cool venue with an interactive scavenger hunt and a magician! Would be a great place to take older children. Food and service were good but nothing special. If you are into fun experiences definitely check out, if you are a foodie keep that in mind. Would recommend for something new and out of the ordinary.

    Extremely disappointing experience. Made a reservation and a table was available right away. We walked by other empty tables and were seated 3 feet outside the the back of the house entrance. No door on the entrance, staff loudly chatting, dishwasher going constantly, dumping bins of silverware, staff yelling "corner" going in and out of this entrance. I understand these are aspects of an operating restaurant, but this has to be the worst possible location for a table of guests. This table should be used as an absolutely last resort or not even put a table there. We asked the hostess to be moved to a different table and we're denied. "Too busy". It simply was not. We would have waited for a better table to open up. Unfortunately we decided to stay. Brisket Bahn Mi was like jerky. Inedible, unchewable. Ate about 1/4 of it. For a place you go to have a very unique experience, this was a horrible experience. Our server was nice though.

    Atmosphere seems like it used to be fun, but it’s tired now. The decor seems dated/grimy… the whole place needs a refresh! It could be so much better!!!! Service was good/fast but the food was nothing special. Fish tacos were meh… no flavor and rather sadly presented. Portions were average… a little skimpy with the fries/onion rings. Pulled pork was ok.

    I had a burger. It was ok, nothing exceptional. Kind of smallish for the price. The spy theme is fun. A scavenger hunt before or after dinner to tour the restaurant. Should go at least once to check it out.

    I was excited to dine here with my husband and kids while on vacation in Milwaukee based on some reviews I’d read about the spy theme. My kids enjoyed the scavenger hunt, but we had to ask for it. The waiter didn’t offer it initially. Our food was mediocre at best. I ordered the club and it was very basic and lacking in flavor. The tater tots were mushy, almost as if they’d been microwaved. My husband ordered the Cuban Missile sandwich and would give it a 2/5 and said it was very “yellow mustard forward.” The kids’ Mac and cheese was very bland. One child ordered the burger and another got the chicken strips. They seemed to enjoy their meals. Also, at $12, they were the most expensive kids meals I’d ever ordered.
