- DDonnaWisconsin •1 review5.0Dined 4 days agoFrom the start the service and ambience were fantastic. Our server was delightful. She recommended the potholes and the blackener white fish. One of the parties had the blackened cod and said it was the best she's ever had . We all enjoyed the potholes and will definitely be back to order this again. The scallops and risotto were melt in your mouth delicious. The salmon was grilled to perfection. Thank you for a delightful and memorable evening. We'll be back soon!More infoThird Coast ProvisionsPrice: Very Expensive• Seafood• Milwaukee•4.5

- SSusanDenver / Colorado •1 review5.0Dined 6 days agoA great restaurant with a varied menu and an extensive wine list. We were a party of six with a reservation and we were promptly seated. The food was outstanding, the majority of our party ordered different cuts of steak which were all outstanding. The service was impeccable, right down to the owner of the restaurant engaging with us. The ambience was perfect, some low level background music but we could still easily converse. Parking was easy to find and relatively close. I would go back again without hesitation.More infoCarbon SteakPrice: Very Expensive• Steakhouse• Milwaukee•4.6

- ILILovePaellaChicago / Illinois •9 reviews5.0Dined on Sep 7, 2016The steak was very well cooked (medium rare but on the rarer side) and the potatoes were good. The bistro is in the lobby of the hotel, so it has the potential to be loud depending on the day. It was nice and quiet while I was thereMore infoJulep/Bistro 333 - Hyatt Regency MilwaukeePrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Milwaukee•3.7
