Wisconsin Club

An old school mansion and a great location for a wedding reception. It's everything you would expect from a blue blood country club. Plush carpeting. A women's lounge/restroom with an anteroom with sofas. Nice balcony where you can take drinks outside. A dance floor.

They catered the reception too. The salad was okay. The steak was pretty good. Huge. At least 12 oz. Cooked nicely to medium.

There's plenty of street parking to the side.

In the last year I've attended a few banquets with the Wisconsin Chapter of Risk Managers. We had recently had a luncheon at the Wisconsin Club-City Club. This was my first time here. We were greeted by the black (Wrought Iron?) gate out front that opens as you pull in.

After parking which proved to be a breeze on this Wednesday we headed into the building through the rear where the valet attendant is. There was a coat room where a cheerful older gal was happy to take your coat. After heading there I stopped in the mens room which offered complimentary Scope mouth wash, how nice. Everything was spick and span so far.

After sitting down our guest speaker started us out and we enjoyed  a very delightful lunch, some rolls with Garden Salad which was perfect. Then on to a Italian Style dish with Spinach, maybe Mosticholi? Followed by some decadent desserts.

This meeting ran about 2.5 hours and the servers were very hospitable. Very professional environment, I could definitely see a meeting here, again.

What is really compelling me to give it 5 stars is the fact that this beautiful property is in downtown Milwaukee, what a beautiful city and how they've preserved this place that was built in the 1870's.

A consistently top notch meal.  Honestly some of the best steaks in town.  Very accommodating to those with allergies.  Both the City Club and Country Club provide provide significant value, downtown more for business and the Country Club for leisure golf, swim, tennis, workout, weddings and other very special events.
