Water was always filled, drinks came quick, appetizers were perfectly timed. We ordered the shrimp cocktail and it was huge! The fried deviled eggs were "ok", nothing to run back to get as they needed more flavor..... Our table of four ordered the pork chops which are "Wisconsins best" and they truly are, a filet done with Oscar style and two pasta specials. Out of the meal choices the pork chops won hands down. Absolutely amazing!!!! We already said we will be back for them. We ordered a dessert as well, the bananas foster. It was table side and a very fun experience!

The hardwood bar needs to be experienced firsthand to understand how spectacular it is. Then you see the impressive fireplace and the charming dining area, and I was loving it before we even did anything there. We arrived early, so we went to the bar for drinks. My wife, the couple we were with, and I were each impressed with the size of the pours. We ordered a few glasses of wine, a fantastic classic Wisconsin Old Fashioned, and a bourbon on the rocks. The amount we were poured each was impressive, especially compared to other restaurants we've been to lately. The service was fantastic. We were constantly catered to, even though the place was packed. We were each shocked to learn our waitress was new and just starting to fly solo, because she was terrific. Finally, and most importantly, the food was excellent. We started with crab cakes and escargot. Both were absolutely stellar. The salad and bread service were delicious, too, and it was a nice touch that the butter came in slices (we didn't have to unwrap them from foil - a small thing but another plus). When our steaks arrived, each was cooked to the perfectly charred medium-rare we ordered (three NY Strips and one Filet Mignon). Paired with mushrooms, sauteed onions, and some of the largest baked potatoes we'd ever seen, we were in culinary paradise. We will definitely be back, and I imagine many times to come. I haven't had a night that perfect in a long time, if ever.

We had the…read moreentire second level, which offered plenty of seating, a nicely set-up buffet, and a bar with 2-3 bartenders working at a time. Even though it was a cash bar, the bartenders did a great job keeping drinks moving and getting everyone served quickly. The buffet had an excellent variety of food, including fresh fruit and veggies, caprese skewers, spinach dip with warm pita bread, bacon-wrapped water chestnuts, fried lobster ravioli, meatball sliders, and pizza. Overall, the food was amazing and a big hit with our group. Our table tried to decide which item was our favorite and everyone had different answers because it was all good! The only item not loved was the fried lobster ravioli. It wasn't as crispy as I expected, but everything else more than made up for it. Great space for a large group, delicious food, and solid service. I hope we have our holiday party at Zarletti's next year!

We recently ventured to Galioto's for dinner. We had two birthdays in a party of four, a fact that…read morewas confirmed when I made the reservation. We entered on an early Friday evening and the place was already quite packed. I was somewhat surprised at how small the bar and dining room actually were, but the somewhat eclectic décor made the place feel warm and cozy, even though we were not seated by the fireplace table. Our server, Jane, was nice enough and the service was fairly good, but despite seeing a table next to ours getting a birthday song serenade, nothing was ever said about my groups occasions. Even at the end, when my mom ordered a to-go dessert and I commented on it being a birthday treat, it was never acknowledged. I find that odd and a little irritating. The eggplant sticks appetizer was good, as was the bread and whipped butter. My cod dinner was adequate, with the star being the potato pancake. Mom's Ditka chop was good, but the other two were mixed in their opinions about the Sausage Pepper Vodka Penne. I left the place feeling fairly underwhelmed, I'm afraid. Meh.

For our main course, we had the lobster ravioli, mushroom ravioli with salmon, roasted chicken, and the wild striped bass. Dessert was ice cream, an olive oil cake, which the server said was underrated but very delicious, and she was so very right. When we were there it wasn't too busy, so you were able to have a conversation at your table without shouting to be heard. I'm not sure how it would be when they start to get very busy. They do take reservation which I think will be needed when it gets popular!!

I visited Renard's for the first time with a 7PM dinner reservation on a Thursday. To get there, we…read moreentered through The Annex, which was incredibly lively--complete with a very loud live band playing right at the front door. Walking into Renard's, my first impression was that it had a romantic fine dining vibe and the room was bright. We were seated at a table with four wooden chairs, and unfortunately, all of us found the chairs extremely uncomfortable. For dinner, we ordered the Caesar salad, soup, olive & sausage pizza, crab fettuccine, French onion burger, and fries. The standout for me was the soup--it was flavorful and had a bold lemon taste that I enjoyed. The cannellini beans and kale made it hearty and satisfying. My husband and I were really disappointed by the olive & sausage pizza. We're pizza lovers but this one was overwhelmingly salty--even after we removed the olives, the sauce and ricotta were still too salty to enjoy. We ended up barely touching it. The crab fettuccine had great flavor, but the texture of the crab was not for me- it was crunchy, possibly from bits of shell. The French onion burger was a hit- big, cheesy, and satisfying. The fries were also great, especially paired with the aioli dip.

I have to add the tea comes unsweetened. As an app we had fried eggplant. I was warned the pizza would be over 30 minutes. The eggplant came super fast. It was great. Nice sauce. On time my pizza was in front of me. A minute later my wife's ravioli was on the table. Both were served hot. My rectangle "works" pizza was packed with fresh crispy flavor. It was very good. Nice and thin crust. Today (the next day) I ate it for lunch, and it was still great reheated. Wife tells me her lobster ravioli was also very good. My wife might like the pasta, but I guarantee, I will have this pizza again. I would vote 4.5 stars for sure.
