The Fitz

This was our first visit to the Ambassador Hotel home of The Fitz and Gin Rickey. This restaurant and partner bar was a wonderful experience and a beautiful venue. Dedicated to F. Scott Fitzgerald.

The night started with a couple cocktails in the pre-prohibition themed bar Gin Rickey. A great selection of wines and signature cocktails. I had a Sazerac and their signature Manhattan both were outstanding. We also had a flatbread since it was happy hour,very food and the bar staff is both very knowledgable and excellent at their craft.

Next, we went into the restaurant to have dinner. My wife had the Scallops and I had the Short Rib entree. Both were excellent and again our server was first class. They treated us with some champagne for our celebration. The entire staff also gave us some history of this wonderful hotel.

We look forward to going back.

Classic atmosphere, excellent food, and high level service. Great for special occasions.

Great food at fair prices. I highly recommend the cheese curd appetizer and the pumpkin cheesecake. The staff is nice and the ambiance is really neat because of the hotel that it’s in. Definitely will eat here again some time.

A neat place that serves good food and great cocktails, all in an atmosphere I presume was common 100 years ago. Lovely staff as well. Definitely a positive experience. If you’re considering it, you should try it.

If you are looking for someplace nice to eat or have a cocktail while visiting in Milwaukee, I'd highly recommend this place! The menu is unique for Milwaukee and the quality of the food is amazing! Friendly staff in a cute boutique hotel loaded with Milwaukee History.
