To back date a little bit, I took my wife and a lot of others to Trocadero for her 30th Birthday party back in October. I have nothing by high remarks about their service and food.
I made the reservations via Twitter and was taken care of very easily.
If you are a bloody Mary fan, which we both are, this is the place for you. I ordered the "Gloreosa" Bloody and was not disappointed. They mix garlic infused vodka with a delightful array of spices to make the absolute masterpiece!
I was turned on to their red-curried mussels cooked in coconut milk with garlic and a touch of mint for an appetizer. They were fantastic!
To continue my garlic themed night, I enjoyed the Triple Garlic Burger! Luckily we went out for many drinks after otherwise the wife wouldn't have been happy with the odor that followed me around for sometime.
We have been back a couple times now and planning on continuing our visits to Trocadero!
Thanks guys!

Mimmas Cafe 2.5 out of 5
For the fans of the hit NBC Show "The Office", you guys will love this place. I recently took my wife to Mimmas Cafe on Brady Street the other night and we were not a short of laughs with our server, Will. Dwight Schrute is alive in Milwaukee! Will happened to put on a great display of the colorful character with his antics and humor.
The food:
The menu was huge with a lot of different options. There were too many specials to follow during Will's rambling. It was similar to Will Ferrall in Old School when he blacks out during the debate scene. I ordered the Ravioli. Great portion and great flavor. The wife ordered some fettuccine in a light cream sauce. Both dishes were very good.
The service was lacking a little professionalism. Although"Dwight" was great and always there to serve us, the water boy forgot what was in the olive oil and was very creepy walking from table to table. Mimma looks to be out of the kitchen and behind the hostess table. Lets just say she needs to go back into the kitchen and make her magic happen. She had a little trouble working the reservations on the computer and look flustered all night.
Overall it was good experience but if we were to go back, we would have to sit in "Dwight's" I mean Will's section again! He was spot on!
