Parking was plentiful on the street. Venue seems to be a wine bar with an open kitchen. Opted for a table with a view of the open kitchen. Staff throughout the evening was excellent. Started off with the seared Maitake Mushroom and it was tasty. It was served over a bed of aioli and topped with some cilantro. The venison was a special and requested medium rare. It came out towards a medium. Venison tends to be extremely lean. This dish was served perfectly with beets and squash. Ended the meal with a dark chocolate pie which was also excellent. Presentation was fantastic and the pie was super fresh. Portions were generous and perfect for sharing! $79/head after tax, gratuity and 3% credit card surcharge

I really love Story Hill, the only reason I knock it down a star is that despite being good food -…read moreI still feel like it's a bit over priced. It's a great environment with a lot of good drink options. I always opt for the Parker rolls which are tasty but again expensive for the amount you get, I typically order the trout (which until coming here I didn't realize was essentially the same as salmon). It's very good and the potato pancake is a nice touch. Over my visits I've also enjoyed trying the short rib gnocchi, butter chicken, and brussels. They also have a small party room which I have attended an event in before which is always a nice touch. It's secluded and of course much quieter than their main dining area which can get pretty loud!

Fucking love this place…read more If there is a highly rated small plates place in a location we are visiting, you can count on us to find it. We walked literally thirty minutes to this place from our hotel. It was a lovely walk in early August. We had a 5:45pm reservation on a Thursday (we are old now) and we were seated immediately. Service was excellent. Ok so they have a fantastic cocktail menu. I appreciate any cocktail menu that is more complex than vodka and cranberry juice but this takes it to another level of creativity. I also like how they name them with numbers. It's so much easier to say "I'll have a 42" rather than "I will have a duperbeamerscicle". I started with an "88" with pisco, rose-poached strawberry, amontillado sherry, verjus, rose port, and pink peppercorn. Served in a highball glass and garnished with berries. Very refreshing. GF started with the "91" mezcal, passion fruit, poblano, pineapple, amaro, lime. Gorgeous and chic. Very strong, smoky flavor. When in Rome, so the cheese plate did not feel like an option. Four fantastic cheeses were served with very tasty candied nuts, some jam business, grapes, and some of the best bread I have had on a cheese plate. Thick, soft, and fluffy. Paired absolutely perfectly with cheese. Only complaint is that I wish there was more of it. I haven't had deviled eggs in a minute so I went wild and also had the chili crisp deviled eggs which were SPECTACULAR. I also got the Egyptian fried cauliflower which is served on a smear of harissa and lemon tahini. Very flavorful. Star of the show tbh was the tagliatelle with squash, tomato, these fried cheese crisps. The noodles were al dente and SO GOOD in such a wonderful sauce. GF also got the steak, she says "very good seasoning". I helped her out with the kimchi pancake. Wonderful. Such a great sauce. For our second round of dranks we both went with the "77" makrut lime vodka, tamarind, bird's eye chili, cilantro, lime, lemongrass. Very tamarind forward. Very unique. I can see why it's our server's favorite drink on the menu. The desserts looked really good (something with sticky rice I think it was a cocktail and a bread budding that looked fantastic) but we just weren't feeling it.

Our bartender was incredibly friendly, charismatic, and genuinely passionate about the menu. He took the time to explain dishes, offered thoughtful recommendations, and made the entire experience even more enjoyable. Every dish we ordered was outstanding. The deviled eggs were easily our favorite and are an absolute must-order. We also loved the flatbread with fiddleheads, which featured a delicious curry-inspired flavor that reminded us of an Indian dish. My husband couldn't stop talking about the bread pudding and said it was one of the best desserts he's had. Everything we tried was beautifully prepared and full of flavor.

Had a couple drinks that were mixed well, old fashioned and a Malibu & Diet Coke. Then decided to just eat at the bar. We ordered chicken littles, fries, Chicago & western hot dogs. Roasted beets , potato truffle soup. All of this was so good. The soup was amazing. The Hot dogs were surprising, off the daily special menu. Topped it off with a red velvet cheesecake. So good. The place had a great vibe and lots of character. Would do it again when back in town

They have an arcade upstairs that kept the kids entertained for a bit. The funds go quickly in this arcade though! The food was good. I ordered their Friday special, a 3 piece fish fry. It was delicious! The batter was very crispy and the fish was a good size! I ordered their Cajun fries and it was delicious. My husband ordered their shrimp and steak fajitas. It came out sizzling and smelling sooo good! The steak was tender and delicious but the shrimp was a bit rubbery.

They have an arcade, daily specials, and apparently a bunch of free dry rubs for your fries (we had Cajun & Parmesan Garlic). The fries are the thicker, batter-fried ones - I don't feel like I needed to dip them in anything with the dry rub. I really liked building my own smash burger- I probably should've used a fork to eat it since I got it in a lettuce wrap and it was immediately the messiest thing ever....but it turned out great (avocado, bacon jam, fried onions & Gouda).

My wife loved her dish so much I could even get a taste. She finished in record time. Lol I have had curry all over and my favorite is from a small town in Ireland named Kinsale, and that was Kitty O'sea. That being said this is right there too. I no longer have to fly 6 hours for the best curry I found it right here in West Allis. Our server was Jessica and she made the experience fun. She chatted with us and told us her spoon story. (You'll have to ask her). My wife had a drink special with watermelon and tequila, I had a Potsie Root Beer that was excellent too. We went on Friday night around dinner time so it was busy and a little loud but after all it was Friday at dinner time. I would have been a little skeptical if it wasn't busy. All in all it was a great experience and we will be returning.

2 stars We used to…read morelove this place, especially being local -- the hangar steak with spinach cream sauce and fries was one of my favorite dishes anywhere, and I'd been craving it for weeks before we finally went back today. Unfortunately the dish has completely changed and not for the better. It now comes with chimichurri on top, brussels sprouts, and seared potato triangles instead of the fries and cream sauce. I ordered it medium rare and it came out medium to medium-well and quite dry. Chimichurri is a strong, acidic sauce that overwhelms the dish rather than complementing it. Leftovers don't feel worth keeping. My boyfriend's duck fat burger was also disappointing -- it came with just fried onions, similar to what you'd get from a basic $5 burger special at Camino, I thought I remembered it at least came with lettuce and tomato. The bartender also had dirty dishes clutter non stop on the bar despite there being 2 tables in there the entire time, and seemed noticeably distracted/off compared to our usual visits.

Morel was an outstanding experience from start to finish…read more We started with the smoked pork belly and the herbed flatbread, and both were excellent. The pork belly was rich and flavorful, while the flatbread was fresh, light, and something I'd definitely order again. The Perfect Storm was the perfect way to kick off the meal and paired really well with the appetizers. As a fellow forager, I have to say...you did mushrooms right. They were featured throughout the menu and treated as more than just a garnish. They were a star in their own right. For my entrée, I tried the Rabbit Ragout. It was my first time having rabbit, and it definitely won't be my last. It was tender, comforting, and paired perfectly with the pappardelle and mushrooms. I enjoyed it with the Ramone Flowers cocktail, whose light floral and citrus notes balanced the richness of the dish beautifully. Dessert was the Strawberry Pavlova, and one bite transported me back to Australia. The perfect ending to a fantastic meal. The service was outstanding--friendly, knowledgeable, and full of great recommendations. The dining room has a clean, modern feel, parking across the street was easy, and the whole experience was top-notch. Great food, creative cocktails, and an even better setting to spend the evening with longtime business partners who have become great friends.

First time here. It's a historic building on the south end of Bay View. A big old white building…read more(previously called the White House) with a small parking lot on the south side. We had reservations at 6:00 on a Saturday night. (It was cold, a little drizzly, and windy out.) The front entrance has several steep steps, and when you walk through, you are literally at the host station. They were going to seat us right behind the host station, but we knew it was going to be a problem as people went in and out. We asked to be seated a little farther from the door, and after a bit of discussion (it sounded like this was going to be a little issue), they were able to find a table for two in the parlor. So glad! Got settled in right away with menus and waters. Our server did a good job of getting us up to speed on the menu, the service, and the cocktails. They did a very good job throughout the evening (thanks, Roberto). We settled on the Window Seat (Beef Tallow and Rosemary Washed Vodka, crazy but true) and the Night Clubbing (with espresso-infused Campari). Both were very good choices. We decided that we wanted to start with three dishes and then regroup if we needed more. These included the Bok Choy Salad, Cumin and Cinnamon Braised Pork Shoulder, and Venison Tartare (Dijon Ice Cream?). The Bok Choy Salad was a real surprise, with the entire collection being so bright and flavorful. The dates had a meaty quality. The dressing with Nuoc Cham was savory with just a bit of heat. We both decided that we could have made an entire meal of that. The Pork Shoulder came next and was a good portion, with the meat tender and flavorful. The Quinoa Polenta was interesting, but I can't say that it was something I would seek out. I have had Beef Tartare before, but this was a first for Venison Tartare, so of course I just had to order it. What struck me first was that the entire thing (not just the Dijon Ice Cream) was very cold, almost frozen. I tried a couple of bites, and it was so cold that unless you let it sit in your mouth to thaw out, it was somewhat tasteless. I spread it around the plate to thaw out, and it was a big improvement. It's a good-sized portion, and even after loading up on the three pieces of bread, there was still plenty left (maybe a couple more pieces of bread?). There were a couple of desserts that we would have loved to try, but we were full and had a performance to attend. So we will have to wait until next time. Really enjoyed our first dinner. Loved the inventiveness of the menu. The staff all seem to really care about the business and the diners. With the placement of the front door and the draftiness of the dining room, we will likely book our next dinner when the weather turns warmer.
