Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Brown Deer

To be honest, I was unsure what to expect. Several (about 5) years ago the experience had not been pleasant. So decided to try again; I’m very glad I did - it was an awesome experience. The drinks, their specials, were superb. The waitress was knowledgeable about the menu, great recommendations. The meal came quickly, everything that should have been hot was, I had a beet salad with feta cheese that was to die for. We splurged on a very nice bottle of wine, my wife’s roasted chicken she said was delicious and while there were two lobster selections, the waitress helped me make a good decision - the result was fantastic, both in size, appearance & taste. Admittedly we spent more than I intended, however it was worth every dollar! Oh I should mention the small but nice raw bar; I have some familiarity with oysters and the NB selection was excellent. I rarely leave this long or detailed review, however, we will definitely return to the Milwaukee Harbor House and strongly recommend it to anyone who wants a great restaurant experience!!

Tre Rivila exceeded all expectations during my recent visit! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming and elegant. Our server, Mimi, was absolutely phenomenal. She was attentive, friendly, and made excellent recommendations that truly elevated our dining experience. The food was exceptional—perfectly prepared and bursting with flavor. Thank you, Tre Rivila, and a special shoutout to Mimi for her outstanding service. We’ll definitely be back and highly recommend this gem to anyone looking for an unforgettable dining experience!

Lobster Thermidor and wedge salad were excellent. Recommend reserving at the counter overlooking food prep area as they give a couple free goodies if you sit there. Also, if you stay at the Pfister Hotel, you don’t even need to go outside to access the restaurant.

Always happy w/our meals here. Very glad they were open on Xmas eve & love that they take reservations. Server was great. Only wish the offered another option for non fish eaters. Grilled chicken? Chicken would be great on their salads

We love going to Mr B’s It’s a great place but is pricey. The only reason I didn’t give them a 5 on all this time was due to management .. it’s a busy time of year, the place was really busy but they only had one bartender on staff and she was doing her best to keep up, the manager finally stepped in to help and the other staff took some of her tables. We still tipped as we always do but gave the bartender an extra something because she was clearly working hard at both taking orders for food AND bartending.
