Had a lovely time there on New Year’s Eve. Dinner was delicious! Black truffle ravioli was great. Veal soup wasn’t what we expected but it was okay. Scallops is so far the best of all the restaurants I’ve been to! The filet mignon was overcooked when I cut it open but they quickly had it remade and It was cooked perfectly the second time. We loved both dessert, thought chocolate would be really heavy and dense but it melted in your mouth right away and the flavor and sweetness were just perfect for us. Overall it was a great experience. We stayed for the party and really enjoyed our time there. Will be going back to try their regular menu for sure!

Overall, great food, service, and experience. Highly recommended. We had a rocky start when our group of ten got seated 45 minutes after our reservation time, but the staff recovered with great service. The owner even came out to check in with us. The foie gras, tempura mushrooms, and cheese plate were standout appetizers. The filet, veal medallion, organic chicken and short rib were excellent. Our Italian exchange student daughter loved the Bolognese. The molten lava cake and sorbets were also great. Our waiter Alan made us feel like we were his only table. Thanks, Bacchus!

We came here the other night for a delayed birthday dinner and it was phenomenal! Every dish and cocktail we had was better than the last. I can personally recommend the chicken and the plum cocktail. If they are available when you go you won't be disappointed. A special shout-out should be given to their vegetarian options and for our server Liz - she was warm and extremely helpful! We will most assuredly be coming back

I was thoroughly impressed! This was my first time dining here, and the experience exceeded my expectations. Neil was incredibly kind and patient, especially with our large group. He took the time to understand our needs and made sure everyone felt taken care of. I really appreciated how he accommodated my gluten-free restriction with a thoughtful alternative. His service—and the entire team’s—was exceptional. I’ll definitely be back and can’t wait to try the Belle-Helene again!

My boyfriend and I did the Chef’s Tasting menu and it was incredible from start to finish. Every single course was amazing but our favorites were the Guajillo-Glazed Octopus with pork belly and the Hudson Canyon Sea Scallop! We’ve been sleeping on this spot and can’t wait to go back to order a-la carte or do the three course menu! I highly recommend!!

I loved the name - the Roman god of wine! When I saw the menu, I immediately made a reservation, and it did not disappoint. My husband and I are wine lovers, and we did the 6-course menu with wine pairings. My husband’s not an adventurous eater, but even he loved it! Come hungry!! You will definitely leave happy. We had excellent service from Autumn and Naliah (apologies if I got names wrong). The next time we are in Milwaukee, we will definitely be back!

We had dinner last night to celebrate the wedding of two of my dearest friends. In addition to the phenomenal food, our servers Kimberly and Zoe were outstanding! They were engaged with our entire party and so very attentive. Thank you for a wonderful dining experience. We'll be back June 7th to celebrate with 40 more people!

Kimberly was our server and was terrific. Tasting menu was very good and a lot of fun. We went on a Thursday evening to avoid the crowds. It was quiet and perfect for 2 couples celebrating dual birthdays. Valet parking was fantastic. Thanks again;)
