Mikey's
Whether seeking an upscale dining experience or on the prowl for an upbeat night on the town, Mi•Key’s is one of Milwaukee’s preferred hotspots. Its dual nature – polished-casual dining by day, hip cocktail lounge by night – is what gives Mi•Key’s its distinctive flare. The all-American establishment pays homage to Milwaukee’s blue-collar roots with an emblematic atmosphere of cream city brick, brushed steel, and cool blue neon lighting. And with a lunch and dinner menu that pairs affordable comfort food with a twist (as in the Three-cheese Macaroni and Four-meat Meatloaf) with outright sophisticated fare (á la Eggplant Napoleon and Chicken Saltimbocca), Mi•Key’s cuisine is as eclectic and diverse as its clientele.

"We tried this place with another couple and found it on OpenTable. The food, service and ambience was suprisingly awesome. The wings and cheese curd appetizers were delicious. Salads and burgers we as well. Plenty of fun cocktails and good micro brew on tap.
We were going to see Joe Bonamassa and were concerned about having to wait for seats and service and feeling rushed so we did not miss the concert. Not an issue at Mikey's on a Saturday night at 6:30pm.
I highly recommend this"

"Some unique twists on good old American comfort food makes that menu interesting. The server was attentive and never missed a beat, even though the dining room was overflowing.
The Cheese Curd Mac and Cheese was an unexpected treat, as was the meatloaf. The filet was also nice and tender.
AS to other reviews stating that the prices are too high - nonsense! Only in tightwad Milwaukee are there continuous gripes about restaurant prices. Want a cheap meal?? Go to Denny's. The prices at Mi-Key's are very reasonable!
Overall, an enjoyable dining experience."

"Food was very good. The only drawback it had was they had no white zinfandel only whites and reds. What restaurant doesn't carry all three types?"

"Went to the restaurant later on a Saturday night, had a reservation for 9:30. We were seated immediately and the hostess took our drink and food orders within a few minutes. Appetizers came out first, had the beer battered chees curds, delicious! I went with a burger and my wife had the tilapia tacos both wer cooked to perfection and was too much to finish and had to leave with a to-go box.
Hostess was attentive even when the bar picked up, somehwere around 10:00. Not many other people were dining, we might have actually been the only ones, but it was still very comfortable. After finishing the meal we stayed to have another cocktail.
Over all, we had a great time, enjoyed the food and atmosphere. Would definitly go back."

"Quiet the night we went. Great food. Great service. Reasonable prices. Excellent homemade chicken soup and apple pie. My wife's salmon was among the best she ever ate. My pork chops were cooked to perfection. Will return soon."

"The food overall was not bad, the service was not the greatest. Not really something I had expected. It was for a birthday surprise and I had never been there before so I was expecting something diffrent. Server had a more "oh well what ever" attitude. I most likely wont be going there again"

"Throughout the entire time from start to finish our server was excellent - trying very hard to make sure our experience was the best. We were a group of 6 - a monthly dinner group and we pick different places to try and then rerun those selections too. We had a varied selection of entrees and each one was excellent. Meat loaf was good. Salmon was good. Pork chops were good. Tilapia was good. The sides offered were fresh and good. There was great consistency in food preparation. And the deserts were good too. But it's hard to tell what this place wants to be - either a restaurant or a bar. Very noisy atmosphere. Poor wine selections."
