    The staff was phenomenal and the ambiance was fantastic, dark and a bit moody. Our server was so friendly and helpful!! We went in a Tuesday so I got the margarita special which was good. To start we ordered brussel sprouts which lacked flavor. They were disappointing, there were bacon pieces and crispy onions but the actual brussel sprouts itself did not have much of any seasoning. I got the short rib bolognese for dinner and my friend did too. The consistency between the two dishes was off. Mine had much more meat and sauce than my friends. Overall it was good but not great.

    Beef tartare

    I was so excited to try this restaurant so we went for date night. The happy hour was good for sharing plates and cocktails for $10. The deviled eggs were just deviled eggs and the toppings were not really prominent in taste. Oysters were very small but seemed fresh. We also ordered a bunch of appetizers to share. The beef tartare which is what I was excited about the most, mostly tasted like mustard, there was maybe 1.5 TBSP of meat and these stale/ chewy breads with it. Completely not worth $24. The Brussel sprouts were ok but were seasoned quite a bit with black pepper which is just a seasoning I don't like. The crab cakes were not bad and the brioche trio was just not good at all. Our waitress did a nice job and had the plates spread out. I think this place tries to be semi upscale but the food just doesn't hit the mark. Was just such a disappointment for the cost.

    Being in the neighborhood, I looked for an interesting bar, restaurant, or brewpub to explore. The Eleanor Room is a stunning restaurant with a lengthy, curved bar. My boyfriend and I are always fans of sitting at the bar. FYI: always a great people watching spot! This bar has a fascinating robot (?) drink mixer/shaker which the bartender used for my boyfriend's drink. Fascinating to me as I have never encountered one. I have now researched this tool annoyingly well. We didn't have anything to snack on or an entree, but they have quite an impressive menu. Hefty with a lunch/brunch-ish menu, dinner menu, and amusing (to me) groan inducing dad jokes. Find them at the bottom of their menu pages. Our bartender was very attentive while also giving us enough time to browse the above referenced exhaustive menu. They also had a holiday special cocktail list and a regular menu of unique cocktails. A high recommend, from me to you, for a visit to this slightly tucked away gem of a find!

    Eleanor's Fried Chicken

    We have been back to The Eleanor Room quite a few times since the last review, and they have earned that extra star. We got Breelen for this visit, and she was fantastic! Very well-spoken and well-versed on the menu, she was an absolute delight. She had recommendations for us, and I was waffling between a couple of choices, and she helped me choose. Always a sucker for the garlic & dill pickle flatbread, those flavors and textures are a great precursor to a meal. It went well with the Nanner Old Fashioned I had to start things off, along with a Dreamy Cognac that my wife ordered. We found the premium price on the drinks to be acceptable because they were twice as good as you would find elsewhere. That's a typical line for me, I guess ;) The dinners we got were done to perfection - Eleanor's fried chicken - they give you plenty, since you have a half chicken to eat. Nice and crispy with the skin, which I love, and really moist on the inside. The chicken was not greasy; the chipotle honey was great for dunking in the chicken and the sweet potato planks - a really nice combo with the sweet and salty. Coleslaw was really good as well; I'm glad they went creamy and not vinegar for this, because I have yet to find a good vinegar coleslaw in my travels. The Butternut Squash Risotto with blackened salmon my wife got was a really great combination. The risotto was cooked just right, not overdone, and the accompanying flavors with root vegetables, vegetable stock, confit garlic, lemon zest & shaved asiago gave it a nice flavor profile as well. I grabbed a Grandma's Toffee Old Fashioned with dinner because I had to try it based on the write-up. Another delicious drink that I'd go back for - this was a great Parent's Night Out dinner event. This time we were seated at the opposite end of the restaurant, which was straight back as you entered the facility. The chairs and couch area were so comfortable, and it was snowing, allowing us to watch it out the window. It created a really nice ambiance. Thanks so much for the great time!

    Garlic and Dill Pickle Flatbread
    Mary K.

    A group of five of us came to the Eleanor Room for lunch. We were all happy with our food. One had a chicken sandwich, and she said it was the best chicken sandwich she ever had at a restaurant. Two had the steak frite and both enjoyed it. I am pretty much a vegetarian and had a hard time finding something with protein to eat. So I had garlic and dill pickle flatbread which WAS very good despite no protein. Thus, my suggestion would be to have a few vegetarian (tofu, meatless protein, etc) options. But, all in all, it was a nice place for lunch. And waitstaff was good!!

    We met another couple to have a special dinner celebrating their special event. Cameron was our server and approached us and asked for beverage order while we waited for the other couple to arrive. They showed up right behind us and also ordered drinks nd we ordered a charcuterie board of cheese, meats, veggies and nuts and some crackers. It was pretty skimpy considering the price charged . We dove into the appetizer and when completed, Cameron came back and explained menus items, and we all ordered meals. It was fairly well paced for cooking and finally delivered our food. The fried chicken was a bit dry, and was missing the vegetables, having only fried sett potato coins. The salmon was good, the steak filets were cooked to order and tasty and the pasta with brisket bolognese which was very good and huge for one serving and I took home half of it for a left over. The food was good but quite pricey for the serving sizes except the bolognese.

    The Eleanor Room was a delightful place to try! The moody interior was great for our date night. Our server was very personable and had great recommendations. Would love to come back and try the brunch menu!

    Stopped in for lunch at Eleanor Room and had a great experience. We sat at the bar -- super chill atmosphere and the service was awesome. Everyone was really friendly and on top of things without being over the top. We tried the deviled eggs (so good), short rib croquettes (crispy, rich, super flavorful), and the winter green salad with pears and dates, which was really fresh and balanced everything out nicely. Really solid lunch, good vibes, and I'll definitely be back to try more. A great little spot to have in Greendale.

    I love The Eleanor Room! The bar has such an elegant style to accompany their delicious and well presented drinks (the Bon Bon Martini is the best). Along with their delicious food! I love that I'm always trying something new on their rotating menu. The service is always lovely and I can't wait to go back!

    This is such a cute place! My friend invited me to meet her and it happened to be during happy hour so I had to try a couple of things. We sat at the bar and both settled on mocktails. I tried the deviled eggs and charcuterie board. I liked that the deviled eggs were two ways. Both were pretty good and I would come back for dinner to try a full meal. Great place to meet with friends or for a date.

    Pierogies
    Alex S.

    Beautiful little gem in historic Greendale! We made a reservation for a Tuesday evening-although the restaurant was mostly empty, most of us were seated in close proximity to each other. We were greeted by our lovely server, our drink orders came out promptly. We were offered the daily amuse bouche-cucumber topped with a salmon salad-tasty & refreshing way to start our meal. We ordered a few things to share-the dill pickle flatbread was good, but in my opinion not "pickley" enough. The beet salad was fresh & light. The pierogies were good, but not the best I've ever had. We ended the meal with an egg nog tiramisu which was decadent. All in all, we enjoyed our visit & will be back to try other menu items!

    Really nice upscale, but yet down to earth restaurant. The food is delicious- our table shared all plates and loved everything we ordered. Sliders, bacon wrapped dates, garlic and pickle flatbread- surprisingly delish.,fried cauliflower, brussel sprouts, hush puppies. The sauces served underneath or alongside each item complicated each dish so well. I know we tasted more- but can't remember it all. The drinks are wonderful. The owner has a penchant for tequila- so they are well versed in tequila. Hubby had a tequila old fashioned that was so smooth- he had two.... (And a smile on his face all night). Dirty martini's were wonderful and us ladies enjoyed those too!

    tenderloin
    Scott W.

    First time here with another couple. One person was having a birthday. We had reservations and were seated right away. They had placed a Happy Birthday placard on the table with a card signed by the staff. Nice touch. The dining area was half filled, noisy, but manageable for a conversation. Our server got to us right away. Was super friendly, and gave us plenty of help with the drink and food menus. We got a few glasses of wine. I had the Bon Bon Martini. All the drinks were good, but the Martini was a bit of a gooey mess (not a huge deal). We ordered a couple appetizers, and the each of us ordered our own entree (not tapas style, this is an important distinction, read on). The two entrees, brussel sprouts, and frites came out in good time, were hot, and well seasoned. The portions were small, and we each got a small taste. The Entrees of Trout, Eleanor (tenderloin), Short Rib Risotto, and Sliders all came out together. They were all wam, with good portions, and well seasoned. However, both the tenderloin, and the sliders were poorly cooked. Tenderloin was undercooked, and the sliders were overcooked. My slides were supposed to be medium rare. If it had just been the two of us, I would have sent them back. Ended up getting dessert, the Eggnog Tiramisu. That was very good. The experience was mixed. The atmosphere is nice, the service was very good. The cooked meats were a big disappointment. Perhaps ordering tapas style, and having plates come individually, as they are finished, would have achieved better results. There are plenty of good restaurants to choose from. Don't think Eleanors will be on my return list.

They do a tremendous job of explaining the menu and food options in detail, and ensure you have a great experience from start to finish. The drinks? Nothing short of amazing. They vary the featured cocktails menu every 8 weeks, so most likely you'll get a different experience every time you go. However you can always get your classic cocktails like Margaritas, French 75 and Martinis. They also can do any drink NA which is the first of its kind in the US. They have an option called dealers choice, where you can pick the spirit and flavor profile of the drink you want: spicy, sour, floral, smoky etc. no limits! You write down on a card what you want and they craft you a cocktail based on your selections. They also offer a variety of food pairings to go along with the select, featured drink you order. We got spring rolls, a braised, pork infused doughnut, and an incredible bone broth that still has me in a tizzy. Fair warning: it's small and difficult to get a reservation - don't try your luck walking in, this place is a hot ticket and you won't be able to get in without a resy, which could be weeks or months out.
