Milwaukee Chop House

Specializing in tender steak, fresh seafood and an extensive wine list

  • Private Dining Room
  • Notable Wine List
  • Steak and Seafood

Milwaukee ChopHouse is a traditional steakhouse with contemporary flair, specializing in tender steaks and fresh seafood.

True to its name, this restaurant has the feel of a big-city dinner club with its dark interior and large expanses of woodwork. The emphasis here is on meat, wonderful New York strip and bone-in rib-eye steaks, as well as excellent lamb, pork chops and barbecued ribs. What makes the restaurant so widely appealing is that the rotisserie chicken and fish entrees are also outstanding. Some diners here wear jeans, most dress a little better. Service is attentive; crumbs are removed after every course.

My wife and I had the pleasure of dining at the Milwaukee Chophouse this past Saturday. We are new to the city and had heard good things about the restaurant. The tuna tartar we agreed was the best we'd ever had. I had the "Wedge" and my wife the Chopped salad both were well prepared and the blue cheese dressing on my salad was outstanding. For our entree's my wife chose the eight ounce fillet which the chef was offering with roasted mushrooms, caramelized onions and gruyere cheese... I ordered the bone-in ribeye au poivre. Our steaks were done properly and were both fantastic. Maybe next time we'll save room for dessert... the waiter told us that the carrot cake was the best in town! We will definitely be back to the chophouse it was an all around great experience food and service!

Pros: Great Food and Service

Cons: No outside entrance (have to go through the hotel)

Ok, parking is easy. Let's see, what else... nope, that's it. Loud. Although "networky" busy and business-hip boisterous is expected for high end steakhouses, the Chop House atmosphere was much closer to TGIF with high prices. Tables are crowded together. The bathroom was out of paper towels- and this was Monday night! There were folks obviously out for a nice meal and dressed appropriately whether on a business trip or not. However- and this coming from someone who enjoys dressing casual, but at the very least fashionably so- the Packer caps and sweat pants added perfectly to the TGIF atmosphere. Ok, well, perhaps the sanitary quality of the bathrooms, noise level, and straight-from-the-garage-sale attire wasn't great, but how about food and service? Even worse. Service was terrible; our server was difficult to understand, and had difficulty understanding us. We had to ask more than once for almost everything. When asked about details, the answers were unclear. The up-sell was in huge effect, glaringly and awkwardly so. She seemed to feel free to interrupt us on her schedule, yet not be around when we needed her. And the steak? Fair... at best. If there is one thing that a steak house should do right- and it isn't that hard- is cook a steak as it's ordered. 2 out of the 3 steaks ordered at our table had to be sent back. Medium rare is NOT rare. Once we got our steaks to accompany our now cold and over-cooked asparagus, they were fine. Not great, just fine. But this is far below expectations for a steak house. Our server forgot our healthy portion of leftovers. Once she got her tip, which would have been much lower had I been paying, she was gone. We needed to go, and never got the rest of our over-priced meal. Had the service been professional, the bathrooms clean, the steaks prepared properly, the aspargus not overcooked, the atmosphere and dress been appropriate for a high end steak joint- that would earn 5 stars. But they failed miserably on nearly every level,

Pros: can't think of any

Cons: poorly cooked food, noisy, too casual attire, terrible service, unsanitary restrooms
