"Definitely go enjoy a meal here. prices but portions were fulfilling. We wanted to try somewhere new and we’re headed for Original but saw the patio across the street and glad we changed plans. Service was so PLEASANT and the outdoor space was really cute. Food was some of the best I’ve had in Milwaukee. Steak in the mushroom and wine reduction was so good I asked for more bread (also delicious) to sop up the leftover juices. My friend got the ravioli and I stole a couple extra bites from his plate. Honorable mention goes to the neighborhood setting of the location. Vibe and atmosphere was perfect for casual conversations small celebrations nice meal with old friends date night."

Our place for special events, from city guests, birthdays, etc. Friendly staff, very good food, small menu But nice selection and very good preparation. And we prefer the middle week, early time, before any amount that can come.

This is my 4th time dining at Tess, and the experience was as good as ever. The location, atmosphere, service, drinks and food are all top notch. Living out of state, we put Tess at the top of our list of dining venues to patronize when we are in Milwaukee.

Beautiful outdoor seating area--we didn't know we'd be dining outdoors so I didn't bring a jacket or sweater. Luckily, they have a basket of fleece blankets by the door if you find yourself in the same situation! The food was just incredible. The fresh bread served when you are seated is fresh out of the oven, nice and warm to melt the butter! I highly recommend the carnitas (pork) taquitos for an appetizer, but rest assured anything you eat will be delicious. Each dish we ordered had a perfect balance of flavors. Pair it with a groupon for an AMAZING value!

"let me start from the moment I arrived, until the moment I went, I was treated so well by all the staff. this place has a deep feeling, and that was an experience you can get nowhere else. the host who took our beverage order donna was so incredibly friendly and up to the earth, it felt like making a new girlfriend. the waitress we had (I can't remember her names, but she had dark hair and a fan to make sure she wasn't heated over while serving that I thought was an incredible idea) was exceptional at point and friendly. she made sure we took care of every moment when she noticed something was running low on our table. we were so comfortable with her, we could talk about everything! she was amazing! they start at the bar where they can order a drink and plan their order. Once they have ordered their food, they close their tab at the bar and then they are moved to their edible for their meal. they get a radishes board that includes sweet, pickel, olive and paprika. it was a delicious start and is free with its meal along with brot and salat. my coworker and I ordered both a rib eye. we shared a side of creamy spinat and sparing (the side orders are more than enough to share I did not want my steak rare or medium rare, but in between, and the boil nailed it. the outside of my steaks was perfectly presumed with a delicious crust. the au jus was a bit salty for my pleasure, but it has improved the taste of the steaks. my steak was perfectly boiled where it melted in the mouth with little wall on chew. I almost cried, that was good. I was so incredibly impressed by all the experience, I will be more than happy to make sure that I have this restaurant every time I have to say to wisconsin (I am from ohio but travel to wi for the work the only thing I have to tell the owners are: bravo"
