Bacchus - A Bartolotta Restaurant

Our Friday evening dinner at Bacchus will be fondly remembered as one of the best meals we've enjoyed. The dining room is lovely, and the hostess chose a perfect corner table for our cozy meal. Michael and Nick were attentive servers and treated us well. We chose the Chateaubriand for two, which was served with potatoes, mushrooms and brussels sprouts, and it was divinely delicious. The restaurant had hosted an Opus One wine event the night before, and we were thrilled to help drink the rest! The Almond Joy dessert was a high-end interpretation of my favorite candy bar. Some reviews are mentioning positive or negative experiences ordering the 5- or 7-course tasting menus. We asked for a sneak peek of the courses offered that night, and this foreknowledge helped us decide on the meal we would most enjoy.

Usually Bartolatta restaurants are wonderful . This time being a Graduation weekend , many things were below standards . . We we arrived, the hostess said we have a romantic table for you, enjoy the view. The view was not of the lake but of the corner of the art museum. Our romantic table was a small table for two pushed in front of the door leading to the closed patio. I was freezing. The food is wonderful but Bacchus does not do any thing for vegetarians. That was a disappointment. All in all though , the food was good . The interior could use some help though.

We had an exceptional meal here! They were very accommodating and allowed us to drink a bottle of sparkling riesling wine I had brought back from a trip to Germany. Shared a glass of it with our waiter. If you want one of the four best meals you'll find in Milwaukee, come here to get it.

A lovely place to celebrate a date night or special occasion. We both had the five course chef’s tasting menu. You can opt to get it with wine pairings too. We were pleasantly surprised by the menu. There wasn’t anything that we didn’t like. The service is always impeccable and their wine selections are out of this world. We’ve dined here before a few times and it’s consistently excellent. My favorite is the veal ravioli. Put on your nice clothes and treat yourself to some of the finest in Milwaukee.
