Reviews for La Merenda in Milwaukee, WI
Come hungry, often and ready to make some of the hardest decisions of your life! Haha there are SO many things to choose from... and everything is SO very good! Tapas make it so easy to try so many different things and they are seasonal and support localfarmers while still representing so many different cuisines around the world! Drinks were also amazing! Love the sangria! One ofmy favorite places!!! Read more
If you want to chill out with great food and have variety. Here is your place. There're lots of flavors per dish and easy to... understand. My recommended plate is Duck Confit which have strong flavor. However, if you don't like salty plate, try to askthem for less salt. Read more
I've been here several times over the last ten years. I can honestly say I believe this is the best restaurant in WI. Prices are... right on, staff are awesome, but the food is out of this world. Flavors and sauces to thrill you and fill you. To top this alloff, it's a local farm to table place. It is the best of all things. Glad they survived the pandemic shutdown and hope they stayhere for many more years!! Read more
La Merenda is a fantastic joint with delicious drinks, dessert and staff. HIGHLY recommend the Creme Brulee. Chris the bartender... graciously accommodated my group at the bar when we rapidly went from 4 to 7 people. Quick, courteous staff all around. Read more
We absolutely lucked out with finding this place. At first glance at the outside, it looks like a small and unassuming... restaurant. On the inside, it's beautiful, warm, clean, and actually quite big. We went on a Tuesday and they were completelyreserved out (great for them and means we were in the right place at the wrong time). We absolutely lucked out and thankfullythe good news was there were four spots for us at the bar. To be honest, I'd sit at the bar every time. The bartender wasincredible; every drink was perfection. The tapas came SO quickly too, and we ordered a bunch. From the pistachio salad to theirpork belly, every single dish was inch perfect with such a wonderful blend of flavors and textures. I will come here every timeim in MKE no question. Read more
La Merenda is phenomenal. Everything we had was amazing and the portion sizes were appropriate for what our wonderful server... recommended. There was 2 of us and we had 4 plates and a dessert. I highly recommend! One of our new favorites. Read more
La Merenda was the perfect place to celebrate my one year anniversary with my girlfriend. They food was delicious! We got the... Argentinian steak, patatas bravas, the mushroom risotto, the truffle potato skins, and the espresso flan. The only complaint wasthat the truffle potato skins were slightly too salty, but besides that, everything else was great! Read more
The food choices were extensive. The server was knowledgeable and was able to describe more in depth the ingredients. She was... very friendly and attentive. I had the pistachio salad, which was nice and flavorful. It was very fulfilling for being a salad.My second plate was the mushroom risotto which was perfect, nice and creamy. And lastly I had the tostada, which was probably myfavorite! Ultimately I enjoyed all the dishes I had chosen. The outside patio was beautiful with all the flowers! Though bewarned if you have a bee allergy, stay inside as my friend was stung. Read more
