What started out as a butcher shop concept, has evolved and changed over the years to become a full-service restaurant, which was solidified with the restaurant's move to a larger space in 2022. At Bavette, the consumer will enjoy complete transparency of its food moving from farm to plate. Although the butcher shop has been phased out, the restaurant still works with the same farms, and uses the same high quality meats on its menu, which consists of a daily changing menu consisting of salads, sandwiches, small plates, pates, cheese, and charcuterie boards. The restaurant truly is a farm-to-table restaurant, sourcing not only the meat but most of its produce from nearby farms. In addition to the highly seasonal menu, there is a small store featuring chef-curated retail items, such as Wisconsin cheeses, local charcuterie, artisanal jams, pickles, salts, vinegar, and oil. Going along with the thoughtful menu is a select and unique offering of craft beers, wines, and cocktails.

    I was seated immediately, and my server kept my coffee full. The steak tartare was beautifully plated; flavors were well-balanced. It was very, very fresh! I also had the pear, beet, and delicata squash salad. Good portion size, again with very, very fresh ingredients. The flavors worked perfectly with each other. I could not pass up espresso bread pudding for dessert. Excellent portion size, and again, beautifully plated. Good value for the price.

    I spent a few weeks in Milwaukee for business and went to Bavette three times. If I had the money, I might have gone every night. Great place.
