I’ve been going here for years, and even after all this time, I think the best way to describe Elsa’s is that it’s just its own vibe—part bistro, part lounge.
Fantastic burgers, and they keep it fairly simple. It’s good food, interesting ambience, and a great place to grab a few cocktails and hang out.
I brought my young son, and he tore into his grilled cheese sandwich, so yes, they’re known for their burgers, but they definitely have other worthwhile options on the menu.
They’re basically a Milwaukee staple at this point. A great spot to start a night out—or finish one.
By the way, you’ll get a postcard when you pay your check. Fill it out, and add someone’s address. They’ll mail it out for you.

Elsa’s OTP used to be my place back about 15 years ago, then the vibe started to change & it was no longer on my list of places. Let me tell you, Elsa’s & the city’s BEST cosmo is BACK! Our server was a friendly & nice gal with excellent recommendations. She was attentive & definitely made our party feel genuinely welcomed. The meatball sliders were a hit, our shared pizza with a pistachio pesto was excellent, as was my pork chop salad with apples, glazed walnuts, black olives, & a host of other toppings. Another in our party had the porkchop sandwich, which had the same ingredients as my pizza & he gave it kudos, as well. Our other friend had the Smash Burger served with thick steakhouse French fries, which he really enjoyed. We will definitely be back! The Golden Gate cake & Strawberry Shortcake finished us off. I particularly enjoyed the Golden Gate Cak!

1st timer! Nice restaurant, nice atmosphere, interesting location based on parking. Parking is somewhat of a hassle which for me personably would stop me from going. We were a party of 3 and spent a total of $95 for lunch! Gratuity of 18% is added and labeled as “Service charge” please pay attention to your bills. I understand businesses need to make their money and also that people are terrible at leaving tips overall that can be a little much.
For the food, I ordered a Sidecar to drink (recommended by word of mouth) 10/10! For my personal meal I ordered a pork chop sandwich without the mustard and Glad I did! I personally am not a fancy Dijon mustard person and got it on the side and for the sandwich it was too much. I ordered the pork chop well cooked with grilled onions, the bread & pork chop was cooked to perfection but my onions didn’t come grilled they came burnt but overall the sandwich minus the mustard 9/10! The garnish tbh was pathetic and not necessary. Jamison was our server and he was a cool individual. Thanks Elsa on the park glad I was able to visit!

For many years my wife and I would frequent Elsa’s for dessert–mainly their delicious cheesecake. They bring it in from NYC and it’s amazing. At some point the vibe at Elsa’s changed and we stopped going. Tonight after a wonderful meal at Room Service in Bay View we decided to give Elsa’s another try. As we approached Elsa’s the building was as beautiful as we remembered. The host greeted and seated us promptly. So far so good. I’d guess about 1/3 of the tables were occupied. We sat ignored while the staff cleared tables nobody was waiting for. About 8 mins in our server dropped off menus and with no eye contact muttered “I’ll be back”. We placed our order and, as before the cheesecakes were delicious. Our server disappeared for some time. When we finally saw him again we asked for water, which he didn’t bring. At this point there are maybe 6 tables occupied and 2 servers on the floor. He brought the bill and I was not surprised to see a 20% gratuity included. That explains perfectly the lax service. I told the server I wasn’t paying the service fee. “You have to” he said. I told him I’d explain to the manager if needed. He sent someone out from the kitchen (frankly I thought the host was the manager but he spent our entire visit sitting at the bar with his back to the tables). I ended up shorting them about $3 so it wasn’t the money; it was the hubris of providing a substandard experience with the expectation of a 20% tip. When Karl Kopp was on the floor this would never have been acceptable.
FWIW, we tipped 25% on a much larger bill at Room Service, so I have no problem tipping for a good experience.
Elsa’s looks great, the food still tastes great, but unfortunately the service we received will put Elsa’s in the nostalgia file for us. Once great but great no more.

So they suggest you order dessert first, and thank God I ordered it last. This butter rum cake was amazing. Okay, let’s get to the food. Decently priced food, however when I order a burger I don’t expect a random vegetable/fruit medley. I got one piece of broccoli, one snap pea, one carrot, one radish and 5 grapes. Now I’m not a expert or anything but none of these items cleared my palate. It was super random and definitely not needed. The Alfredo burger was decent, sauce was not made in a traditional way but it worked. They have no type of dipping sauce, other than this “Cajun sauce”. Which had way more horseradish sauce than anything, it was very overpowering. In all I prefer the dessert over the meal, however I did see a couple other things I would be willing to try. However my expectations will be a tad bit lower than they were. Anywho, try the butter rum cake.

I hadn’t been here in 20 years. Their service was still 5 star ⭐ & the food was flawless. The host was very attentive & Kind!! Our server was good too. The food was so delicious. The desert had me talking about coming back for more. Wonderful experience for our anniversary. Reasonably priced. Great portions. People brought kids but it’s really not the kind of place for kids.

Host was entertaining and started the night off right. Drinks were good but we can only a very crowded night so it was a little slow getting them. I did start with dessert first and it was amazing. I liked most of the food. The only thing is the shrimp was so hard and rubbery it was off putting. Otherwise it was a decent meal. I’d come back on a less crowded night for drinks.

Classy place but with room to improve. Great 20 dollar cocktails and wonderful liquor sellection, but their touted cheeseburger was just so-so. Too little cheese to really taste it, and the hamburger meat lacked flavor. Great location on cathedral square.
