Triskele's - Milwaukee

The chowder was, without a doubt, my favorite dish! It was creamy, salty, and comforting—all the qualities you want in a chowder. Plus, it was loaded with shrimp, and not the tiny ones, but medium-sized ones. I’m definitely coming back just for this and to try the mussels! As for the truffles, they were perfect and melted in your mouth! The initial taste was of coffee, and then it just dissolved beautifully. They are undoubtedly some of the best truffles I've ever had. I can't wait to return!

One important thing to note about this restaurant is that it has unique operating hours that are shorter than what you might expect. It’s a place you’ll need to plan to visit, so be sure to check their hours and website before heading out. It's not the type of place where you can just drop by at any time and expect it to be open. The experience feels very personal and cozy. I won’t delve into specific food choices because the menu frequently changes, making it hard to recommend something that may not be available during your visit. This is part of what I love about the place—it’s always different, and you can trust that the chefs know what they're doing, so you're unlikely to go wrong here. One dish they're particularly famous for is their baked mac and cheese. It’s phenomenal and has remained on the menu for quite some time. I highly recommend trying it, and you can even add chicken if you like. Now, I know this might sound trivial, but I really enjoyed their garlic aioli. I'm not sure if it’s a regular offering, but if it is, be sure to get it on the side with whatever you order. The ambiance of the restaurant is quite dark—not too small, but also not too large. You'll be aware of the conversations happening around you. It's clean, comfortable, and romantic while also being family-friendly, though it’s not the kind of place where kids are running around. The aroma of delicious food fills the air. The service was excellent—helpful, patient, and ready to assist you if you have any questions. The restrooms were clean, and street parking is available.

Updated Review: I've lost track of how many times I've been to this restaurant, but since COVID started and they transitioned to curbside pickup a few days a week, I've made it my mission to support them by ordering as often as possible. I've been enjoying Triskeles' food since 2011, and I've never had a bad experience or meal—not one. For nine years, I’ve dined here, but I rarely spoke to the owners until the pandemic hit. Suddenly, my favorite spot was closed, and I was genuinely worried they might not reopen. I was thrilled when they announced curbside pickup! Jolinda and Lynn, I may not know you well, but you feel like family to me. I can't wait for the day I can dine inside again!

Very nice casual spot with good drinks, food, and service. I had the green Thai chicken curry and my wife had the steak and they were both excellent. The draft selection is good as well.

First time here. We ordered the cauliflower mac and cheese with bacon. It was ok, I thought it was to salty. We also ordered the blue cheese toast, we did like this, it was different.
