This place will speak for itself with its delicious food, drinks, and great view. We've taken many friends and family here because it just never disappoints. They have a double decker patio allowing for more tables outside, which I recommend trying to get the top one for the better view. Really cool interior with vintage lamps hanging throughout the dinning area. There just isn't a bad seat in the house.
Overall, never really had to much of an issue other than the occasional wait, but with a view like this one, you can't complain too much. Definitely recommend.

I'd never heard of View MKE before joining Yelp about a week ago, and the second I read the description I knew it was a must see. View offers just that- incredible views. Their website shows off each of the different dining/drinking locations at the site, and I knew I wanted to check out their Outdoor Patio to see their view of Milwaukee. My boyfriend and I went on our first dress-up date since corona (!) and both got those date butterflies here!!! We also had such an incredible experience with the staff; my boyfriend arrived thirty minutes early to beat me there and the hostess talked with

I loved the decorations in here. It is such a cozy and quaint place! Unfortunately it was chilly outside, so I didn't get to experience the patio but have heard great things. I ordered the Bloody Mary, which tasted fresh and was more on the spicy side. The eggs Benedict was good too! I truly enjoyed the homemade biscuits that came with it. The potatoes were seasoned well with Cajun spices and tasted yummy! I can't wait to be back to try more drinks and experience the patio!

I love the decor here. It is so cozy and intimate inside. They also have a huge patio outdoor seating area available. The staff here was very helpful, and they all were wearing masks. The Bloody Mary is made with a house mix and it is delicious - on the spicier side. I would say the Eggs Benedict was mediocre for me. It came out at room temp, and the sauce was not super flavorful. However, I really enjoyed the potatoes, they had a Cajun flavor to them which stuck out. I have been here for drinks before, and their cocktail menu is phenomenal. I will definitely be back to try more menu items!

This place has taken over what used to be Wolf Peach, and expanded upon the area! I was here last weekend for one of my best friend's farewell brunch!
Upon walking in, I told the front hostess the name my party was under. She took me through this maze onto the lower patio which has a spectacular view ( probably where they got the name from)! The six of us were sitting on a large couch, waiting for our table. The waitress was kind to take our drink orders and bring me a water.

I came here on two different occasions for dinner. On both occasions, we had exceptional service from both waiters. The first was pre-COVID, with a small group of girlfriends, seated indoors. From what I remember, the appetizers we ordered were the meat/cheese board and the truffle fries. We thought these were good and highly recommend. For the main meal, I ordered a red sauce pasta dish. I didn't see this on their current menu, as I believe they update it often, but can tell you I would have been less inclined to come back based on this dish, as it was bland and forgettable.

Wow! I didn't expect to get a table when I walked up at 7:30 on a Thursday night, but we snagged one right away on the lower patio. There is no indoor seating because of COVID, but both patios are spacious, comfortable, beautiful.
I opted for the lamb wrap with a side cucumber salad. My guest greatly enjoyed the pork entree. Both were delicious and ample with or without a starter, but we added brussel sprouts with pistachios, goat cheese and honey. Service was excellent from the server and food runner.
Touchless menu and billing added to a sense of security eating out here, too.

An amazing brunch spot off the typical path. We were seated on the lower balcony which had a great atmosphere. No doubt the upper patio has an amazing view. The patio is dog friendly- huge plus. The interior and design is rustic and inviting. The food is well priced and so good. We opted for the eggs Benedict and biscuits and gravy. The Benedict was a+ and highly recommend! Thanks to our waitress who was so attentive albeit it being 90 degrees and so humid!

I got this for takeout for the first time (I usually dine in), and it was very good. I got a BYO pizza with olive oil, cheese, asparagus, tomatoes, & fresh herbs. Highly recommend the asparagus and fresh herbs!! I also got the brussels sprouts which are always to die for!! They recently must have cha fed the recipe from having balsamic to a different dressing, but they were still delicious. I am allergic to nuts so get them without the pistachios, which are still so delicious! I would 100% recommend dining in for the view (no pun intended!). It is truly the best view of downtown MKE.

I really wanted to like this place more! I will give props that the interior is beautiful, and the bottle lights are shining modern lanterns.
But the tapas-like dishes are too pricey and underwhelming. Our server seemed frazzled during service, boasting of the brussel sprouts and then delivering notice that they were sold out after we ordered. She forgot the cauliflower order but it was reminded when she came back with news of the sprouts.
The curried cauliflower was a little too sweet with the honey and overabundance of craisins. And the beet salad looked like a toppled green napoleon. The

We enjoyed the food, but I definitely didn't like how they handle the fact that they brought out dirty cups. As I'm sipping from my wine glass theres RED lipstick stains on the opposite side. Not once did they apologize. In fact the waiter made a joke out of it, the waiter said, "they must've forgot to polish it" after he laughed. I'm assuming you have to wash the dishes before you polish them that's just me. He walked away before I could even finish my sentence.......Anyways my Dad still enjoyed his BIRTHDAY brunch.

Decided to come here for brunch over 4th of July weekend since both my boyfriend and I had never been, but we both have heard good things.
The patio has a nice view and there were two levels. I'm not sure if the lower patio is only if you do drinks since most patrons were seated upstairs. I like that most of the patio can't be seen from the street and that there isn't a lot of foot traffic so you can enjoy the view and food in peace.

The hubby and I we're off to dinner and wanted to stop for a drink before hand, so we figured we'd give View MKE a try! Since we didn't plan to eat, we just wondered into their "Backyard Patio" which was really lovely. It's very spacious, with a wooden barn rustic-type feel, and really does have a wonderful view overlooking the city.
There are full seating tables as well couches surrounding a fire table for a more laid back option. We just sat at the bar, as we weren't staying too long. It was still *happy hour* (which is sometimes hard to find on a Friday, so

An amazing experience at The View Mke. We came here on a weekday so the place was fairly quiet and we got seated right away without a reservation. I do recommend making reservations though because it can really busy at certain times and days. I love their decor with the lights !!! So amazing!
Our server was sweet and walked us through their menu which we absolutely loved. The Brussel sprouts are an absolute must here, which comes with a honey flavoring and is delicious. We got the three mushroom pizza with truffle oil and it was very light yet very flavorful. If you like truffle then this is

View MKE is a great option for brunch or dinner. The brunch was quite good. I enjoyed a eggs Benedict, and my friend enjoyed their breakfast tostada. The tostada appeared to be pretty greasy, but she liked it nonetheless.
I've also really enjoyed trying their rotating menu. Their brussels sprouts, mushroom risotto, watermelon salad, and pizza are among some of the menu items I've particularly enjoyed. My friends all time favorite cocktail was from View MKE too but has since rotated off the menu.
The atmosphere is pretty cool, and you can't talk about the location without mentioning

Went with a group of 7. No one had any complaints and 7/7 would return. We were celebrating a birthday and had a reservation for 700p. Upon arrival we were quickly taken to the indoor table... when we requested an outdoor table the hostess immediately checked to see if she could accomodate us- and did-flawless transition. We sat down outside on their patio... which was a nice setting. Dimly lit once the sun went down. The server was friendly and prompt. She explained the menu after we received our drinks. All of the food that we had was good. Birthday boy had a scoop of icecream and our server

In the former spot of Wolf's Peach, is a new restaurant with one commonality: the view, hence the name, VIEW. We started a Sunday off with their really very cool mix your own Bloody Mary bar! The waiter brings you a very good poor of Vodka and a separate glass, you go to the bar and pick your garnish, mix, and of course your favorite hot sauce. Fun. We sat on the outside deck and we could have stayed for hours just looking at the skyline of Milwaukee. We did not have much to eat, just grits....and they were fantastic. The place is really trendy in its decor. Five stars for this classic. Have fun

Came to View Mke to try some brunch . The good - the bartender was very friendly and quick to take and fill orders. She made solid suggestion and i ended up ordering The beermosa. It was spectacular and reason enough to stop in. The bad - our waiter seemed to be overly casual with us. We all mentioned later that he seemed annoyed with us and gave us weird vibes. I ended up ordering the short ribs and eggs because i was excited to try a variation of steak and eggs. Unfortunately Its just wasnt very much food for the price and it wasnt very good. It was just ok. The fries were overly seasoned, the
