Anniversary Dinner
My wife and I celebrated our anniversary by having dinner a the Harbor House. The food, service and view were outstanding. My wife had the filet, I had the twin lobster tails and we also shared some oysters as an appetizer. The staff gave us a com
Absolutely amazing!
This restaurant is the best! The food, drinks, service, and atmosphere were amazing! Highly recommend and would definitely go back!
Dinner before the Show
Great meal before a performance at the Milwaukee Rep. Service, food and drinks were all great. Enjoyed the prompt held from Devon and Jon of the wait staff. Salad, entrees and dessert were all excellent and delicious. Will return again when in to
Unacceptable for the money.
It was my wife’s birthday and she wanted to give the Harbor House another chance since our visit in July was so bad. But unfortunately, the same poor service and food still applied. The bowl of lobster bisque was HALF full for $26, the ONE crab cak

Had an unbelievable experience with Nessa or waitress who also recommended linguine and clams which was off the charts delicious my Italian friend had a huge steak which he enjoyed. We also had a bottle of milk back, which was very nice calamari and
Extraordinary prices for mediocre food.
A group of 4 of us went for dinner. Two of us had the Trout. It was dry. One had the chicken which was also dry and one had the filet with Salmon. Both of those were dried out as well. We were very unhappy with the food. I don't have much bette

The setting is gorgeous- you'll get nice water and art museum views. The cocktail menu was fun and delicious, and the wine menu was extensive. We had dual waitstaff which was lovely, they were very attentive and helpful. My steak was perfect- ch

I come to the restaurant once in a while for lunch, sometimes for dinner. Generally good experience. I have not been before for brunch. A really disappointing experience. We came for Sunday brunch to celebrate my son's birthday, expecting a spe

I am so glad I finally made my way to Harbor house!! I am a big fan of seafood, so it's been on my bucket list for a while. We got the calamari, a lobster roll, and a special seafood pasta. All of the food was wonderful, and the atmosphere of t
Tasty nice dinner for special occasion.
The vibes and views can't be beat. Service is top notch. Food is fine but overpriced.
Outstanding Steak and Seafood on the Lake
Harbor House is an amazing spot for both steak and seafood lovers. The lobster bisque was rich and full of flavor, and the filet was hands down the best I’ve ever had. The atmosphere is perfect—right on the lake with a setting that makes it ideal
The best place for seafood in the Milwaukee area
It was my birthday dinner and we sat out on the patio. Our waiter was Austin (?) he was absolutely incredible and catered to our every need. The food was quickly served to us hot and very tasty. Harbor House is my favorite restaurant in the Milwauke
A beautiful dining experience!
We ate on the patio and it was a perfect evening to do so! Beautiful views, great food and drinks and friendly staff. A bit pricey but delicious!
Always great!
Outstanding food, service and atmosphere. Pricey, but worth it. One of my two favorites for special occasions. Respect the restaurant and dress up!
Lovely!
Very good! Great service and beautiful atmosphere! Would definitely return again soon! Looked like a nice happy hour. Can’t wait to try that too!
Extraordinary Evening!
Thank you Harbor House for creating one of the most exceptional dining experiences we’ve had in a very long time! Ambiance, kitchen creations and the superior service (thank you Andrew and Cheryl!) made it a night to remember. And the handwritten n
We had an excellent meal on two different occasions.
The ambiance is incredible and the patio views at sunset cannot be beat!
Located on Lake Michigan
We were seated promptly and our server introduced herself and her assistant by name. I was with my four sisters for my birthday, which they acknowledged. The food was outstanding, I had the trout. Several had the branzino but had it filleted. Another
What a wonderful meal we had at Harbor House! Everything
What a wonderful meal we had at Harbor House! Everything was perfection from the setting of the restaurant, the waitstaff, the food. The halibut was tasty and flaky, and the accompanying couscous was very original. My friend raved about the Branzino
A 15 Out Of 10. Above & Beyond
Great choice to start our Anniversary weekend with dinner on the deck at Harbor House. Our server Alex was outstanding, his knowledge of the vast wine list as well as the ever changing oyster selection - really impressive! …and our entrees? no sur
Great customer service!
Even though it took awhile to be seated and order taken because of wait staff emergency they made it worth it. We got free drinks and desserts! All were very good! Steak was fork tender. Would definitely return
Nice location, but the food took nearly three hours to
Nice location, but the food took nearly three hours to arrive, the halibut was dry, the mushrooms were reconstituted and chewy, and drinks were meh.
Not as Impressed
Had a great experience here in March. Not so much in August. Both were family engagement celebrations. They agreed to same table location we had before but when we got there, it wasn't. The server we had was a lil rough, she kept kicking or bump
Great food and service.
Location was excellent with great facilities. Food was outstanding and prepared very well.
Atmosphere and food were great, but our server was
Atmosphere and food were great, but our server was unfriendly--teetering on rude--which greatly impacted our dining experience. For the price, I don't think we'd come back.
This is a a stunning restaurant in a stunning location.
Right on the shores of Lake Michigan, Harbor House had beautiful views. We visited on a Saturday evening with reservations at 7:00 PM and the place was packed. The food was excellent. It was hard to decide, there were so many delicious offerings on

My husband and I came for a date night right at open (5pm) on Sunday. It was already bustling when we got there. The views are amazing, as they claim. A great spot to bring visitors! We enjoyed soft shell crab, and tried both types of lobster rolls

Evening at the Harbor house, first time in about 7 or 8 years. I knew it would be premium priced for Milwaukee, hoped it would be great. It was one of those. I had the branzino, which I didn't annunciate properly according to our server. It cer
Great location and ambiance... services needs to improve
Had dinner with my family over memorial day weekend. It took almost thirty minutes to get a table after our reservation time, the whole checking process seemed chaotic. Agree with other reviews that service was poor, took forever to get foods and dri

Not sure if happy hour still exists here (it used to be the best experience), but I highly recommend sitting at the high top tables if you can. Bar seating and high top tables are first come, first served. Service is just as good in this section, if
Great food.
Solid cocktails- beautiful ambiance. Oysters are so fresh and delicious- so many great choices on the menu!! Risotto is a favorite.
Beautiful views, elegant surroundings
Went for brunch on Sunday. Did not realize they only served brunch on Sunday. It was three courses a starter, entree and dessert We ordered eggs Benedict with spinach it was pricey… $48 but delicious. Hollandaise homemade, eggs perfect the avocado

Very bad experience
We Made reservation and arrived 7 minutes too late bur were refused to enter. Were unfriendly and will never return. Were with business partner
Excellent seafood - fine dining!
Excellent seafood, and very personal service. Make sure you get reservations, the place was packed, but we only had to wait a few minutes for our table. Pet peeve: This is a fine dining restaurant, seeing people in ball caps, slippers, tshirts, takes
The staff here is the best.
We took a pit stop at the bar and asked for wine recommendations. Ashley found us the PERFECT bottle of wine, domaine de Beauregard. Diana started us off so warmly, I felt like I was coming home. She listened to our wants and needs and blew our expec

They are rude! They food is mediocre for the high price they charge. I highly suggest going to carnivore or 5 o'clock steakhouse.

The location is unbeatable! Right on the water with views of the city. Food and drinks were excellent. Highly recommend the steak oscar style. Yum!

Had a business dinner at one of coldest days in 2024, however this place is packed. BTW, valet parking is available for a fee. The view facing the harbor was great. Really enjoyed the oysters, fresh and tender. Crispy Pork belly was crispy for sure
Great service! Enjoyed my entire meal.
I definitely will be back. Had the filet mignon and a wedge salad that were both prepared perfectly.
We used to love coming here for the Sunday brunch buffet
We used to love coming here for the Sunday brunch buffet pre-Covid and have gone twice now after the post-pandemic change from a buffet to a fixed multi-course menu. I desperately miss the selection of the buffet (not to mention the build your own
Lets start with the good, service was excellent.
Now the bad, tenderloin steak looked like it was heavily pounded with a tenderizing tool, and was still tough. Onto the lobster cioppino, 1/2 if a 3 oz. tail (3 rubbery bites) and a small claw (1 bite), 3 large shrimp but rubbery, not tender at all.
My roommate loves this place and always try's to get me to
My roommate loves this place and always try's to get me to eat here. Finally had it it wasn't bad. I don't know why it took me so long to come here but cool views, nice people .
Great spot on the waterfront.
Excellent food and service (Alex). Even when full we were well attended. Party of 9, each with different drinks, entrees. All satisfied. Be wonderful to sit outside in mild weather.
A gorgeously appointed restaurant with a prime location
A gorgeously appointed restaurant with a prime location right on lake Michigan with beautiful views. The food was exceptional, and we had 2 servers tag team our table to ensure we always had what we needed. The classic caviar appetizer was fantastic
Mediocre at Best
We picked the Harbor House to spend our Anniversary this year. Unfortunately, the service was very, very poor. For the price of dinner ($250 without tip) service should've been top notch. We were greeted warmly and given a note at our table that sai
Harbor House is the real deal
Some restaurants have a great view, some good food, and others a well trained staff; Harbor House has it all. When dining at a Bartolotta restaurant, you come to know you’re in for a top notch experience. Harbor House is no exception. Awesome lo
Fantastic food with a fantastic view
Everything was delicious, from the drinks, to the tuna tartare, but the rainbow trout stands above the rest. This is a definite recommend.

Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Harbor House Milwaukee at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Harbor House Milwaukee page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* MaternalRecord73, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* MaternalRecord73 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to MaternalRecord73 for any questions Peter may have as MaternalRecord73 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* MaternalRecord73 now uses their connections at Harbor House Milwaukee to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If MaternalRecord73 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, MaternalRecord73 receives the $200 reward which is credited to MaternalRecord73's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Harbor House Milwaukee!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
