Simply outstanding. The service was excellent. Kat at the bar was incredibly sweet and our server V was very welcoming and friendly. The menu was approachable and had several unique and interesting dishes as well. Flavors were well-balanced. The chocolate mousse was tremendous and I now feel that any chocolate mousses I may have from now on will pale in comparison. I’ve paid more at high-end French restaurants elsewhere and it was not nearly as good. The meal made me regret moving from Milwaukee to the East coast.

Best New York Strip that I’ve had in my life. It must help that chef/owner, Dane (James Beard winner) worked 6 years as a chef at Carnevor. He’s definitely holding it down on Brady street!

Sheesh! What a meal. The burger here caught me off guard. Appetizers are extremely creative, unique, and delicious. Don’t get me started on this desert either!

Highly recommend eating here if you are a baby rabbit or looking to pay hundreds of dollars for what amounts to be an elaborate appetizer for Shwarma King down the road. Service and atmosphere were great, but the amount of food for the price was an absolute disappointment that management should be ashamed of. We left hungry despite ordering 7 dishes between 4 people. We were told the plates were meant to be shared; the asparagus salad was literally one, maybe two stalks of asparagus shaved into slices with a peeler and slapped with a $15 price tag. To be fair, it was tasty, rich and vibrant…all two bites of it. The burger, risotto, and trumpet mushroom dish were also very flavorful and well-prepared, particularly the burger, but the quantity of food for the price was still seriously ridiculous. When the asparagus salad arrived, our table was silent, wondering if we were part of some elaborate joke. You could hear the crickets. We were waiting for the gameshow host to pop out and tell us we were on camera or that the rest of the salad was behind his back. Alas, such comedic relief never came. Even the deviled eggs were appalling in the same way: $6 for one and half eggs—just give us the other half and make it two eggs! Tasty as everything was, I think two stars is more than fair given that we left hungry and upset. I don’t plan to be back.

OMG! I will not give the Diplomat the justice it deserves in my review. If I could give 10 stars I would. First off this is not my type of food by any means. My son brought me here to expand my horizons and that they did. Our server was phenomenal. She makes you feel warm, welcomed and simply as a guest at her table. She recommended the octopus and it was an excellent recommendation. We were going to leave because I was not excited by the choices on the menu. However we changed our minds based on the spectacular job on the octopus…. and am I glad we did! This was by far the best food I have ever tasted. We ordered the Trout, Chicken and New York strip. Each dish was more exquisite than the one before. The flavors of the meat were fabulous. The chefs combination of sides and sauces brought everything together and giving your mouth the best Christmas present with a big red bow. Everything had the perfect crunch and texture with perfection. It was a meal that you smile about the next day because it’s reasonably priced and you most definitely get more than you paid for. I highly recommend trying The Diplomat out because I honestly don’t think you would be disappointed. I guarantee you’ll make this you go to place after you experience the excellent service and exquisite food. Thank you for a phenomenal experience last night and I can’t wait to return. I am definitely in love.

Now that s how you do a burger! Simple, with good ingredients, and well cooked/seasoned. The tomato slice fell a little out place but I can live with it. The fries also delicious, the most crispy potato wedges I ve ever had. I almost skipped them when I was told they were potato wedges but I m glad I tried them. The chicken with gnocchi also good, simple, no bs, well cooked, good flavor both on the chicken and the gravy, gnocchiis made fresh and you can taste it. The peanut butter pie was very peanuty but to split it s great. Nice bar to sit at, good service.

Our first time at The Diplomat! Exquisite food, drink, service. We ordered several items from a succinct menu (9 appetizers, 7 entries with their specialty chicken dish described below, and 4 desserts) with plans for leftovers for later meals.

Had an early dinner 4pm so we were the first ones in the restaurant. Staff was excellent. Octopus was the shining star for us.

Had a super enjoyable meal at the Diplomat. We enjoyed the cocktails and small plate appys. For our entree we did the whole chicken and it fed 4 of us. Of course we finished with the peanut butter pie to share. “V” took excellent care of us all night. Highly recommend.

So good we ate here twice in our long weekend in Milwaukee. Highly recommend the chicken leg confit. Pictured here is the hash brown and a special.
