The food was absolutely impeccable, the atmosphere very cozy and relaxed. The drinks were top tier, the sugar plum was perfect! Salmon carpaccio and the bottleneck ribeye absolutely slapped, Chef John Levine is awesome! Our server Jake was also extremely attentive and good conversation during our dinner! Definitely get the table side bananas foster!

When my husband asked me where I would like to go for dinner for my birthday, I chose Rare because of one reason….their popovers. I proceeded to prepare by fasting a couple of days in excited anticipation daydreaming how the popovers would be my main course and I would order a steak to take home. Tonight our reservation arrived and to my disappointment, we were told the popovers were removed from the menu. Whoever made this decision should know it was a terrible one. Being the only restaurant in Milwaukee with popovers, surely I cant be the only one who remembers your restaurant by this. On a more positive note, the lobster tail was the best and biggest I ever had. That and the bone in ribeye were cooked perfectly. Our service was exceptional although we were disappointed that the manager stopped by all tables in our section except ours as I wanted to lament more about the loss of the popovers. Please put them back on your menu. The last time I had them, when I returned home, I immediately bought the special muffin pan online, looked up a recipe and tried to make them but they weren’t nearly as good as yours.

Because we enjoyed the lobster tail so much, we came back again and were lucky enough to get our same waiter as last time. I was impressed that he even remembered the type of tea I ordered a couple weeks ago. The lobster is amazing!!! The chef even came out to speak with us and he gave me a good idea to check with local bakeries to make popovers for me. Everything was delicious. We are trying to work our way through the menu but its hard to not order the lobster tail since it’s the best one I ever had in Wisconsin.

I have been to many steakhouses and I have never experienced such a sublime blend of flavors, atmosphere, phenomenal customer experience like I did at Rare. The chef Darleen prepared our lunch skillfully and we could taste her passion for
food with the seasonings she chose. Katie our server was prompt, attentive, well educated on the menu and, quite friendly. I will be returning for sure along with bringing my friends and family. This restaurant provides stellar service in an elegant environment.

I took my wife here for her birthday last week and we very impressed! I chose to book a place we’ve never been and this one got pretty good reviews so I was excited to surprise her! Inside is very intimate and sophisticated and I assume since we went on a Tuesday night, it was not crowded nor was there any noise. We were greeted by Marilyn, who was super sweet and gave us all sorts of compliments (thank you). Our server, Raj, was very knowledgeable and took good care of us. My wife got the pistachio crusted sea bass and I got the filet, both were excellent. AND I can’t forget to mention the warm sourdough bread that came out before the meal. Oh, and the table across from us ordered bananas foster, we got to watch that being prepared. Thanks again for a great experience!

I came here to celebrate my birthday and it was absolutely perfect. From the first sip of my French 75 to the very last bite, everything was phenomenal. The food was beautiful and delicious, the atmosphere was stunning, and Jake was so knowledgeable and helpful in guiding us through the menu and picking out our courses. He made the whole night feel effortless and special. Can’t wait to come back.

Had a great experience at RARE Steakhouse. Jake was our server and was extremely informative, attentive, and helpful throughout the night. His assistant Kaylee was also excellent and very on top of everything. The service felt polished but relaxed, and we never felt rushed or forgotten.

The sea bass was very good, and the Sugarplum Fairy margarita was a fun, unique touch. Appetizers were solid, and the overall vibe of the restaurant made for a great evening. Would definitely recommend.

High class (but pricey) steakhouse experience in downtown Milwaukee.

The popovers are to die for!

The steak was good, but I wish it was a little closer to medium rare…that is the issue when you order a tomahawk I guess. Bone-in steaks are tough to cook properly…but it was still tasty!

The sides were delicious. I left about as full as I’ve ever been.

We had been looking for the perfect opportunity to try this restaurant for years. When we planned to attend a show downtown, we decided it was finally time. We made a reservation and were promptly seated upon arrival. Our reservation was a bit early to accommodate the timing of the show, but it worked out perfectly.

Although the restaurant is relatively new, it exudes the timeless charm of a classic steakhouse, complete with elegant dining booths and low lighting that creates a cozy and sophisticated atmosphere.

The menu is well-curated–not overwhelmingly extensive but offering a variety of options. While we didn’t receive a separate wine or cocktail menu, there were several appealing choices integrated into the main menu. Given the impressive wine cellar visible near our table, we assume a dedicated wine list might typically be available. For those not in the mood for steak, there’s a decent selection of alternative entrees, though we opted for the steakhouse staples.

We began our meal with soup–lobster bisque for me and French onion soup for my husband–both of which were excellent. For our main course, we chose steaks accompanied by sautéed mushrooms and truffle butter. Before our meal arrived, we were served warm, flaky popovers with maple butter, which were absolutely delicious. The lobster bisque was rich and flavorful, and the steaks were perfectly cooked and juicy. Every bite was a delight.

The staff was attentive and thoughtful, ensuring we stayed on schedule for our show without feeling rushed. Though we briefly considered dessert, we decided against it since we didn’t think we’d be able to finish. Still, the options sounded tempting. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our experience–the ambiance, service, and food exceeded our expectations. We’ll definitely return!

Visiting from Chicago, and we ran into this beautiful and sexy steakhouse. The young lady at the door greeted us so kindly, and all the servers were super sweet. We loved everything we ordered. Steak, bone marrow, oysters, fries, salads, drinks on point, and the bread was the BEST I’ve ever had. Food was cooked to perfection, and tasted amazing. For dessert we had the Banana Foster, and OMG was in insanely good.
