If you are looking for great New York style pizza with a twist.....this is the place for you! Highly recommend the BBQ chicken & bacon pizza. The pies are huge! Come ready to eat or a great idea for a Packers game! My 2 year old also loves the mac & cheese pizza. Great pies for everyone's taste!

Tenuta's
Tenuta's (in Bay View)
4.5 out of 5
This place is a hidden gem! A couple of my members at the country club have been raving about this small corner bar Italian restaurant in Bay View. Bay view is starting to grow with many great restaurants on it's resume.
Tenuta's has the feel of a local corner bar set into a residential neighborhood, but don't let that throw you off. This place has an amazing Italian feel with dim lighting and tables right on top each other. The only things that this cozy restaurant is missing a corner booth for the boss.
So I decided to order the veal marsala after many food sources saying how good it was. The veal was a little tough but the marsala sauce and sprinkle of fresh basil with the homemade fettuccine noodles was unreal! Extremely delicious!!!
My beautiful wife ordered the Ravioli di Funghi. I am still thinking about this dish the next morning. Could be the best pasta dish that I have ever had! The mixture of fresh mushrooms, shallots, and fresh basil paired with a marsala cream sauce was simply stunning! My wife says the kicker was the sun-dried tomatoes and spinach. I couldn't agree more! This dish was just that good!
We will be back very soon! Anyone want to come with?

Cafe Benelux
Cafe Benelux 4 out of 5
A MUST GO!!!!!
My wife and her sister and husband decided on a beautiful day to grab a little lunch downtown at Cafe Benelux. This is a must go hot spot! If it's a sunny day ask to sit up on the roof. You get a decent look at downtown Milwaukee and a nice cool breeze. To start, I ordered a Stinking Rose Bloody Mary! It is garlic-infused vodka with all the fixings. Very delicious! Time to order lunch and the "Sprocket" burger caught my eye. Anything that is cooked in duck fat....I'm in! The Burger consisted of a pretzel bun with a 1/2 pound prime beef, bacon, duck fried egg, tomato jam and garlic aioli. Very messy but very good!! Overall the menu looked amazing! I always wish my stomach was a little bigger than it is.

Jake's Steakhouse in Brookfield
Jake's Steakhouse 3.5 out 5
So my wife and I decided to try Jake's Steakhouse in Brookfield for my birthday dinner. Growing up, my parents frequently dinned here and they always came home with the leftover haystack onions rings! So going into our dinner I was excited to try them again. They must have changed their recipe because it was not the same onion rings that I remember. We also ordered the daily special of oven roasted oysters. VERY GOOD! My wife ordered a 6 oz. filet. She enjoyed it very much! I ordered the 6 oz filet and scallops. The steak was cooked to perfection, but the scallops were a little over-done for my taste. All in all a great experience and hope to get back there in the future!
