This is what happens when you combine responsible local sourcing of ingredients with masterful preparation. Best meal--but not even close to the most expensive--I have ever had in Milwaukee. I had the corn-beet-greens salad adorned with heirloom tomatoes, roast beef sandwich with roasted cherry tomatoes and horseradish and corn pudding with berries for dessert. Each course exceeded my already-high expectations. Service was excellent--staff was attentive, but I was not rushed. I enjoyed friendly conversation with Ed, my server, and Karen, the chef-owner. I was going to say if you live in Milwaukee, you should go here, but really, if you live in North America, you should go here. I walked in on a Saturday evening and was immediately seated. Next time I hope for a 30-minute wait because this restaurant deserves to fly.

I am a big fan of charcuterie and cheese boards so I made a point to visit Bavette while in Milwaukee. We ordered the meat and cheese plate which came with 3 meats, 3 cheeses, raspberries, a jam, and pickled apple. We also ordered the pickled veggie tray. Overall it was very good. I loved the pickled beets, beet soaked eggs, and the Wisconsin cheese that was on the board. My only (minor) complaint is that the cheeses were all fairly mild and the meats all tasted very similar. I would have also loved a mustard. I would recommend going and would definitely go back again as the boards are always changing.

The Butcher took his time explaining to me the different cuts of meat and even how to cook them to perfection. Ive been told by several people that these are the best steaks that they have ever ate. (Im a vegetarian so I dont eat meat but love to make these steaks because the people I make them for love them) great service, great product and I highly recommend Bavette La Boucherie!

This place is outstanding. It has some of the more original and tasty menu items in the city and very reasonable prices. The drink menu is fantastic as well with a good selection of beer and surprising mixed drinks. The ambiance is fantastic especially the big open work space where you can watch them break down meat. I look forward to bringing friends.

Some of the best meals Ive ever had were here. Best service in town. Very nice atmosphere. Its great watching them prep fresh ingredients behind the bar. The local beer options are good. The sandwiches are amazing. The chicharrones are quite unique and delectable. The pickled veggies are the best app Ive ever had!

Exceptional food! I cant speak for the entire menu, but the majority of their foods are sourced locally, ethically, and consciously. I love supporting a place like this. And they make it especially easy because everything is delicious! I have been here about 7 times. And will continue to be a loyal patron.

Friendly staff but more importantly the sandwiches are sensational. They switch up the menu frequently which leaves you loads of options and I havent met a bad one yet. I hope they continue to do well as the quality of meat/food is second to none for the price. Great place for lunch or dinner.

High quality ingredients in awesome combinations. Theres nothing else quite like it in Milwaukee. Sit at the bar/counter for quick but relaxed service, and you also get a show as the staff buzzes away on sausage making and other butchery.

Great beer and wine selection. I had one of the pressed sandwiches and it was delicious. Id go with 4 stars for my meal, but my wife said the beet salad was one of the best shed ever had, so Im upping it to 5 stars for that.

The food is unique and interesting. Of the 4 appetizers we tried only the chicken liver pate was not to my liking. Pate is an acquired taste. I will be back to try more things. To be continued....

Great atmosphere. Friendly staff, though be prepared to slow things down a bit. Food was fantastic. Hours can be a bit limited at times, so make sure to look before you show up.

Fantastic food. Ive tried 6 different entrees and salads here and loved all of them. The sodas are great too. Holy cow, the meat from the butcher is expensive though.

Joe Tulley

Delicious food with an eclectic menu. Friendly service and great atmosphere. Had the braised pork sandwich and it was fantastic. Definitely worth a visit!

The food here is eyes-rolling-to-the-back-of-your-head good. Incredible selection of meat & cheese.

Great place to get a quick bite for lunch or full meal. Also you must try the beef jerky!
