Steak
Milwaukee's premier steakhouse, Carnevor is one of Wisconsin’s most acclaimed fine dining destinations. A restaurant consistently topping year-end “Best Of” lists, Carnevor has been lauded for its variety of culinary tastes – from our luscious barrel-cut beef to mouthwatering New York Strips and bone-in fillets. Our steak menu offers exquisite wet- and dry-aged USDA prime beef – a distinction afforded to less than two percent of all American beef – as well as daily selections of the coveted Wagyu imported from Japan. And with a wine list featuring more than 750 selections, you’ll always find the perfect bottle to uncork with your meal. But it’s not merely the “meal” you’ll enjoy at Carnevor. It’s the entire experience: service, music, menu, and more. To top it all, herbivores are always welcome.

    Food and service was very good. Atmosphere was creative and very interesting but was way too dark for me. Could barely read the menu without a light.

    The service was spectacular. We were celebrating my sons birthday and they did so many nice things to make it special. The food was outstanding. The staff was so polite, which is hard to find these days. Our overall experience was hands down amazing. We will definitely go back.

    Food was great our server had a real nasty attitude, talked crazy to my girlfriend. Had a issue with giving out an extra straw. We felt almost stereo typed because of our age and skin complexion. Once again all the other staff was polite and great to us. Our server was just really rude and impolite.

    1st time visitor. Dinner started off good. The bread and butter was tasty but I wish it was warmed. The bacon appetizer wasn’t that great, glazing was delicious but the meat wasn’t tender. A-5 wagyu filet cooked appropriately but not much flavor. Service was attentive and quick but after we were given the bill there was no more interaction from the waiter such as, “thanks have a great night”, etc. I tried a fancy rum that wasn’t to my liking and without asking, the manager took it off the bill which was awesome. Overall probably would not return for the cost compared to food.

    Food was amazing (the risotto was addictive)! Service was on point (I believe her name was Diana) and our only suggestion was the actual table. We sat at a two person table but it was very long, so at times it was difficult to hear my lady from my end. Other than that we really enjoyed ourselves! Thank you!

    We had a great dinner with family last evening! Our server, Ally, was awesome and very helpful during the entirety of our stay. She did a nice job of describing the specials and taking our orders. Timing of each dinner course, as well as food preparation was spot on. Overall, the staff was very friendly and attentive. Carnevor never disappoints!
