About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Charming
  • Good for special occasions
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 La Boucherie, 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, vinegar, and oil. Going along with the thoughtful menu is a select and unique offering of craft beers, wines, and cocktails.

    This place is quaint and underrated. If you are looking for an excellent, delectable night of exquisite food and cocktails this is THE place! I am sad we came here on the last night of our five days stay in Milwaukee. I will be back . We want to share this special place with our closest friends next time we are here in town!

    Some dishes were delicious- beef fat fries, salt cod croquettes, steak tartare. Others were meh (carpaccio, corn bread, beef tongue Rueben). Agnolotti was a very small portion and my short rib was overcooked and dry.
