ELOTE CORN FRITTERS and MARYLAND CRAB CAKES
Angela L.

Came here to celebrate my little sister's birthday since she has been wanting to try this place. I ordered the corn fritters, not sure that's the exact title and the crab cakes and the sangria from the happy hour menu. She ordered the shrimp and grits. Everything tasted pretty good, but would agree it was slow service even though it wasn't busy. Definitely a place to try.

We tried Mallards at Bayshore for the first time this week. This place has really flown under the radar, I'm at Bayshore somewhat frequently and didn't realize they were even in this spot. The restaurant is large, spacious, and well decorated. We had a group of 8 and were seated right away on a Wednesday. We got there in time to order a few $5 apps from the happy hour menu. We all liked the elote fritters! The walleye and crab cakes were also good. We all tried something different. Between the NOLA Salmon, Ahi Tacos, Shrimp Cobb, Spicy Pasta, and even the cheeseburger sliders. Everyone really enjoyed their meals. They even brought out an Apple Pie for my dad's birthday! The only complaint I had is it was very slow. From ordering, to getting our food, and the longest wait was for our bill. With a 1.5 year old, we were eager to get going but waited about a half hour after finishing dinner to get the bill. Prices are pretty fair for the quality and quantity you get. Definitely would still go back, just not if we were in a rush!

SHRIMP & GRITS
Calvin Y.

Took a really long time ~ 1 hr to make the food. I think they're overall understaffed. They left a pitcher of water at our table to serve ourselves. Clean and well lit place though. The shrimp and grits is decent flavor but the grits are clumped into a bar. Definitely just take it home, add a bit of butter and cream and mash it back up so it's a creamy texture as opposed to a coagulated block

Elote Corn Fritters
Scott W.

Haven't been to Bayshore center for a while. Decided on this restaurant at the last minute. It was near the location that a music performance, later on that evening. So between the location, and menu, we took a chance. Glad that we did. Made a 6pm reservation and got right in. The place was about 1/3 full. The place is very spacious, with lots of different areas, and table options. They also have outdoor patio seating, which would be a treat during nice weather. The noise level is good, and allowed us to have a quiet conversation. Our server got to us right away with water and menus. Wasn't interested in a drink, but a hot tea on a cold night was a good choice. The menu had a nice selection of starters, salads, sandwiches and entrees. There were some excellent sounding choices, so I asked our servers for some recommendations, which she was happy (and almost excited) to help with. We decided the Elote Corn Fritters, I got the Mallard Melt (new item), and my date got the Blackened Fish Tacos. The corn fritters arrived after a short wait. They were absolutely amazing! The flavors were bright, spicy, but not hot. The inside texture was both moist and crumbly. A very yummy start. After another short wait, the patty melt and the fish tacos came. Both of these were the right temps, flavorful, and good portions. The garlic toast for the melt was nicely grilled. The pimento cheese, bacon jam, and nashville aioli were also tasty, but they tended to overly blend with each other. Instead of chips, I had ordered the veggie fries, with are pan grilled beans and carrots. That was a nice change for fried chips. The fish tacos were nicely plated, with good portions. Lots of interesting flavors from the avocado cream and hot sauce. It was a very good last minute choice. The menu selection, service and atmosphere were better than I might expect. Would definitely come back again. And for sure, get those tasty Elote Corn Fritters.

We had a great brunch! The bottomless mimosas were such a great deal and our server Shawn was amazing. He took care of us and had us all laughing. Its the best restaurant experience I have had in Milwaukee in awhile. The food was pretty standard, but the service and prices made it exceptional. We will absolutely be back for the brunch!

CHEESECAKE
Emily B.

Always love Dad & Daughter dinner dates here! Food is delicious, location is great, and will certainly be back!

I enjoyed the prices on the happy hour menu. The St. Croix Margarita is very sweet, but good if you only plan on having one. The bartender was friendly!

This was my second visit in 10 days. I must say it wasn't quite the same as the first visit. Maybe the server was new, maybe they were shortstaffed I'm not sure, but it wasn't crowded and our table of five felt rushed and almost suggested that we leave by bringing the check without even asking if we wanted another round of drinks or any other food! The corn fritters were kind of dry and not what I remembered less than two weeks ago. I must say the Wally bites were delicious and fresh and lightly breaded. The shrimp tacos were kind of a spicy hot surprise. All I could taste was the heat, but the shrimp were very sizable and tender! My dining companion couldn't even eat hers as They were so spicy. The crabcake was probably also a top favorite as the sangria really hit the spot!

Cheese Curds
Dewayne E.

We came back to try again. And yes, just as good as before. We had for appetizers: Chicken Wings with Korean Bbq sauce and Cheese Curds.Drinks were 2 raspberry lemon drop martini, Chardonnay. Main entrees: Meatloaf, Mushroom Pappardelle with chicken, Barramundi Rodrigo, and Salmon New Orleans. Everyone liked their meals. My meatloaf was good. Their meatloaf is more tomato based over the meatloaf while I'm more of gravy on my meatloaf. But the food is good and I'm sure we'll return.a great place for 4 to sit and have a conversation Our server Chaz was great. A great asset to the restaurant.

CRISPY LEMON CHICKEN

Our table got the Seafood guac, Cheese Curds, and Jerk Chicken Nachos as appetizers and we enjoyed them all. I got the Crispy Lemon Chicken as my main and it was delicious, highly recommend.

Overall, nice spot for a date, but not necessarily the most foodie place. Our server was very, overly enthusiastic, spoke superfast, and long. As nice as he was, I felt more like I was listening to my professor going over the semester, then a server going over the menu. He explained that they made everything fresh, in house. Including their bread. I was under wild by their freshly made bread, which came toasted on my pasta dish. It didn't feel as fresh because it had come toasted with burnt spots. They also have a Brandy that the restaurant gets special made for them. This one was really good. Our bartender had to leave due to sickness before starting on our drinks, so our server said that he made the drinks himself. Unfortunately, the bartender would have probably done a better job. Well the drinks that the server made wasn't bad, it was definitely not quite as professional as it could have been. For example, there are certain drinks that should not come with ice, since it's supposed to be shaken. The food is all good. Solid. But not what I would call excellent. Actually, the shrimp and lobster pasta dish I had was excellent. Had this been the only thing I had gotten, I would have raved about it. Very mind though, that this dish was $25. But Hubby had the fish and chips Which was again, good, but just that. Nothing spectacular. And there was pretty much nothing else that my friends had that looked especially exciting. So for the price and the service we received, I'd say the place is solid, but not necessarily my go to. I will go with a group, but not sure if this would be my date place.

Give us Our Daily Bread. Because it's F'ing delicious!
Warren D.

Date of visit: January 24, 2025 After a long week, my husband and I wanted nothing more than some relaxing conversation with our closest friends accompanied by good food. Mallard's succeeded on both fronts! Shaun took wonderful care of us, letting us know right at the beginning of the meal that the kitchen was very busy and offered us soup or salad to help pass the time, a wonderful offer that went a long way towards ensuring the entire experience was a five-star one! The gratis soup, by the way, was an excellent clam chowder, served with crackers (as all soups should be), and was quite good. We started with the Daily Bread. Dear reader, I would snatch this loaf from an old lady like Seinfeld it was so good! Partially sliced to make it easier to share, it came with three sides: a pimento cheese, a jam, and a honey butter. I skipped the pimento but the other two somehow managed to elevate the bread, which I didn't think was quite possible. I had the Turkey Club and it was decent, but not amazing. I prefer my clubs to be a bit more warm, especially the bread--though the cranberry bread it was served on was excellent. Everyone does something different with their clubs so I'm not docking them for my personal preference. The side of chips were good, though I would have perished and ascended to the heavens if they had been salt and vinegar chips! Bayshore--really the North Shore in general--has been a restaurant desert, so excited to have Mallard's helping to fill the void and I hope they continue to do great things.

There's been some changes at this location at Bayshore over the years. Decent places but nothing special. Mallards is the most promising of them all. The staff, both times I went, was great. Very friendly. The first time I went, with my wife, I had to step outside multiple times to take calls because of a family emergency. The server couldn't have been nicer about it. The menu has a nice range of options and everything I've had thus far has been excellent. From fish to Nashville hot chicken to clam chowder...all the things we've had were tasty! We live very close to Bayshore, and it's great to have a high quality option so near to our home! Been there twice already and will be back soon!

First time here. I was attending a Yelp Event…read more I was super impressed with the store. I checked and there are lots of stores in the Chicago area but this appears to be the first in the Milwaukee area. It's a interesting concept. Everything is frozen, including meats, fish, vegetables and meals. There is a large selection of interesting, or what might be considered exotic foods. You can get cuts of Elk, Bison, and Venison. They have organ meats and oxtails. They have a large selection of shrimp, and some that are so big that you might mistake them for lobster. For many of the items, there are plenty of choices. For example there is not just one salmon or shrimp selection. They have at least 12 different types to choose from. For different locations, different types, different, and different types of production standards (organic, non-gmo, pasture raised, etc) The store is well organized. All of the standing freezers or wall units are neatly packed and well labeled. Pricing is easy to discern. It's easy to shop and find what you are looking for. I found the help to all be helpful, and friendly. The staff at the registers were patient, and chatty. I bought a couple of items, and looking forward to cooking up the pasture raised chicken (breasts) and the Gulf Coast shrimp. This is not my side of town, so it's a little out of my way. However, they explained that for $29 you can get a year of free deliveries. That's a great deal!

Date of visit: August 3, 2024…read more We gathered here with some neighbors as a friend had said that she knows the owners and they are lovely people and the food was good. It was overall a mixed experience. Food: I had the BBQ Short Rib (R3 on the menu) and while it was flavorful with the rice, the meat was extremely tough (especially with just the butter knife I had to cut) and fatty. The portion size was a bit small for the price as well. Other items on the menu seemed to be a much better value in terms of food volume and cost. Service: Attentive at first, but then nonexistent. We were so busy talking that we didn't know what we wanted and finally all settled on items. It took two staff members to take the order due to some language barriers, but we got through it. During the meal, they came around once for water and then never again, despite hanging around for well over 90 minutes. There was no attempt to clear dishes and we had to flag someone down to get the check. Overall it was okay, but I'm not super likely to come back anytime soon, unfortunately.

I was pleasantly surprised as previous reviews are not glowing. The food was excellent, I had…read moreshrimp, calamari, and chicken fried rice.

Our server was attentive. I ordered the blackened salmon sandwich; one friend ordered the grouper cheeks tacos, and another friend ordered the lobster bisque soup and cajun barbecue shrimp. Overall it was a tasty and filling sandwich; you can see the portion size from the photo. I ordered the fries as the side option - nothing to write home about those, but they were slightly crispy. My friend enjoyed her grouper cheek tacos but did not care at all for her fries, which were soft and soggier than mine and she ended up leaving them uneaten on her plate. Grouper cheeks (we asked about them) are the actual cheek portion of the grouper fish, which apparently is a large fish. My other friend enjoyed her lobster bisque and the shrimp appetizer. I dipped one french fry in the shrimp sauce and it was yummy. I'd return to try that appetizer. We had a lovely lunch and overall enjoyed the food.

My husband and I came in on a whim, and given that it was a Friday night we got very lucky being able to snag two seats at the bar. I love bar seating honestly, especially where bartenders are friendly, as they were. These guys knew what they were doing too, because they wiped up our craft cocktails in a flash. Moxie is kind of known for their martinis, and have a whole section on their menu for them, so naturally that's what I gravitated towards. I can't recall the name of the one I chose, but essentially it was Hendrick Gin, cucumber, and mint. So refreshing. My husband had a bourbon cocktail of sorts and really enjoyed it too. We weren't in the mood for full-dinner so instead shared the short rib medallions from the apps list. Those were tasty! Perfectly cooked braised short rib on top polenta medallions with bourbon-marinated peaches and cambozola cheese... what's not to love? We also had the caesar salad with chicken, which was crispy and hit the spot. Plan to spend a decent amount of $$ dining here, but you get what you pay for. All in all, a nice night!
