Never disappointed previously. Service was very friendly but our appetizer took forever. Without complaining about it, staff also felt we waited too long and brought 2 other apps for free to apologize. Of 4 people at our table, only I got the bad steak. I had the "classic" strip steak, which used to be all they had, now they have a premium steak menu as well, at a very premium price. I suppose I should have gone premium. My fork would barely go into the steak, and cutting it was very difficult. I would have sent it back but we finally got our food at 9:15 PM on an 8 PM reservation, and I did not want to wait. Everything else was top-notch, but honestly, I'm a bit iffy on whether I'll go back.

I took my parents out for dinner last week and it's to bad my mom's steak had to be sent back, my dad liked his, but as he stated later he has had better. I thought my food was pretty good and the service was excellent. At least our night wasn't a total loss we had a great time in Badger States infiniti limo.

Bartolotta's are typically a class act. Not this night. Greeted by a young gal who said "Reservations?" And then we waited......... Not a good evening, how are you folks tonight.......? Unfriendly wait staff, dirty dishes sat on the table, steak arrived not as requested etc.Never offered coffee, food too very long to arrive between courses. Very expensive. Small rooms, dark. Alot of noise from the dining floor directly above. For the expese of eating there, there were far too many annoyances. Lake Park Bistro on the other hand...you are greeted by friendly staff, bartender friendly, wait staff perfect in every way. I have been there more times than I can count. It is always perfect. I would not return to Mr. B's.

This is the best restaurant in Milwaukee for steak
