An experience for sure! The food was wonderful. I took the lead from other reviews and ordered the beverage pairings. I was absolutely impressed with how they highlighted the food and the food highlighted them. The 12 course meal started light and was a great introduction to the earthy flavors to come. The desserts appropriately finished the meal and had my taste buds singing for more. The atmosphere was comfortable, and the team did a great job answering our questions, and did a wonderful job with service.

Amazing dining experience with the tasting menu. Small and cozy with an amazing staff. They accommodated gluten and dairy allergies amazingly (still got amazing bread for the caviar and carrot cake bite with vegan frosting). Mocktails were amazing too! A+

Simply an amazing meal.. we were visiting from NYC and have eaten at some of the best restaurants. This was way up there as one of the best! The 9 course tasting menu also comes with snacks, extra dessert bites and even a baked good to take home for breakfast the next day (we we’re stuffed!). Every aspect of the meal, from the homemade pottery for each dish, the linens handmade by the owner’s mother, the story behind each beverage pairing, the fact that everything was locally sourced from the family farm, the thoughtful, friendly and attentive staff. Every dish was absolutely exquisite. My favorites were the croissant with muenster cheese and the mussels with green garlic. My husband’s favorites were the crab celeriac custard and the French fries with ice cream dessert! We were sad to leave but excited to tell everyone back home to come to Milwaukee and eat here. Thank you for an amazing dining experience!

Ardent is second to none – from atmosphere, to service, to food it is truly the best of the best. We come from Chicago to visit the team at Ardent because there is nothing like it. This would without a doubt be a Michelin Starred experience if Michelin was in MKE. So thank you, once again for experience that is second to none with all the memories made. Would also like to add their accommodations for allergies is incredible!

Ardent is by far the most luxurious, decadent and creative meal we’ve had so far in Milwaukee. Chef Justin and his staff live up to hype of executing seasonal, locally sourced dishes that combine art, finesse, and flavor. Each course is thoughtfully paired with wine or beer meant to truly complement and not overpower. The croissant is not to be missed, nor the beef sourced from Chef Justin’s own family farm. The staff is highly attentive and share in all duties from refilling water (Chef Justin was at our table numerous times) to putting out dishes and explaining each taste. It was a decadent taste of what’s best in Milwaukee and Wisconsin! Worth the expense and well worth the trip!

I’ve been here 5ish times and each visit seems to get better and better. The food is innovative and delicious. I think what I appreciate most is that this isn’t your typical upper crust white table cloth fine dining experience, it’s relaxed and approachable, and the staff is awesome. Ardent will always be my go to special occasion spot!

If I could give this 4.5 I would. I like that they utilize local food. I found that the flavors definitely were unique to milwaukee taste, but some of the dishes were lacking. They did well with the wine pairings. Customer service was on point and I appreciated the intimate, personalized dining experience. I would recommend this to someone who is looking for a high end food experience

We thoroughly enjoyed our experience at Ardent. It’s an intimate space that feels like you’re in some sort of underground club you only hear about by word of mouth. The food makes it feel like we should be in some kind of black tie affair, but it’s still a cool space.

Was very good. If Rustic and Elagant could marry it would be this place. It was a very comfortable atmosphere. The food is top notch, let it elavate your taste buds.
