This place will speak for itself with its delicious food, drinks, and great view. We've taken many friends and family here because it just never disappoints. They have a double decker patio allowing for more tables outside, which I recommend trying to get the top one for the better view. Really cool interior with vintage lamps hanging throughout the dinning area. There just isn't a bad seat in the house.
Overall, never really had to much of an issue other than the occasional wait, but with a view like this one, you can't complain too much. Definitely recommend.

For my first COVID restaurant experience, View MKE was wonderful! We had requested patio seating but since that was closed due to the cold, they had us at a table inside. Tables were spaced out and staff was consistently wearing their masks so we felt comfortable. They also seemed to make sure it wasn't too crowded.
Our server was super friendly and seemed to really know the menu which I appreciated! I got the fish fry which was pretty good -- not the biggest portion but crunchy and those fries were amazing! My friend got the mushroom Alfredo pizza and she said it was good and it also was

I love the decor here. It is so cozy and intimate inside. They also have a huge patio outdoor seating area available. The staff here was very helpful, and they all were wearing masks. The Bloody Mary is made with a house mix and it is delicious - on the spicier side. I would say the Eggs Benedict was mediocre for me. It came out at room temp, and the sauce was not super flavorful. However, I really enjoyed the potatoes, they had a Cajun flavor to them which stuck out. I have been here for drinks before, and their cocktail menu is phenomenal. I will definitely be back to try more menu items!

The service was a tad slow but it was expected since it was a Saturday night, we had a table of ten, and there was one waitress to 5 tables. I'm not giving it 5 stars because we tried ordering several different items off of the menu and they said they were out of it. A few girls ordered mixed drinks too and they had to send them back because they tasted odd. I had a Mojito and it was decent. The view is incredible though, only if you're on the top floor. We were down in the basement part which was still nice, just no view of the city.

It was very close, more like a 4.5
The atmosphere was very cool on the inside and on the outside. If you sit in the inside, there's some dim lighting and cute mason jar lighting. The outside seating overlooks the city, which is just as cute!
Our alcoholic drinks came really strong, which is you definitely get your moneys worth. About $12-14 for their drinks.
Appetizers - we got the Brussel sprouts and the cheese curds. I did notice almost every table getting Brussel sprouts as well. High recommended, they were delicious!
I got the chicken dinner, which came with half a chicken, green

This was my 3rd time at the View and it is truly one of my favorite brunch places. It has the best Eggs Benedict's in Milwaukee. This visit I got the Eggs Benedict which comes with a side of breakfast potatoes and ordered a mimosa to drink. My friend ordered the Steak and Eggs which also comes with a side of breakfast potatoes. My food was delicious and I love how nicely seasoned the potatoes are. My friend cleared his entire plate so I know he enjoyed his food as well.
I've always had great service at View and it has the prettiest view of city in the background. It's especially

I really wanted to like this place more! I will give props that the interior is beautiful, and the bottle lights are shining modern lanterns.
But the tapas-like dishes are too pricey and underwhelming. Our server seemed frazzled during service, boasting of the brussel sprouts and then delivering notice that they were sold out after we ordered. She forgot the cauliflower order but it was reminded when she came back with news of the sprouts.
The curried cauliflower was a little too sweet with the honey and overabundance of craisins. And the beet salad looked like a toppled green napoleon. The

We discovered this place just by chance. Our plan was to go to Uncle Wolfie across the street for brunch. But the wait time was too long as always. So we saw this place and wanted to check it out. And boy we couldn't be happier. There is a great view of downtown, food is good and the service was quick. The crowd was also very young and hip because of the up and coming neighborhood. We enjoyed our time there. Totally recommend it. It's even better than Wolfie in my opinion since there is no wait time.

The hubby and I we're off to dinner and wanted to stop for a drink before hand, so we figured we'd give View MKE a try! Since we didn't plan to eat, we just wondered into their "Backyard Patio" which was really lovely. It's very spacious, with a wooden barn rustic-type feel, and really does have a wonderful view overlooking the city.
There are full seating tables as well couches surrounding a fire table for a more laid back option. We just sat at the bar, as we weren't staying too long. It was still *happy hour* (which is sometimes hard to find on a Friday, so

We had an amazing experience here. Brianna our waitress was extremely knowledgeable, courteous and did her job well. The food was to die for. We were from out of town and tired from the day before (Summerfest), had a horrible Air BNB experience and almost just went home. We are glad we decided to stop here, to be fair we were recommended the place across the street who will remain nameless here, and they told us it would be an almost 2 hour wait time. Well we didn't have 2 hours, we wanted to eat and hit the road. Glad we went across the street to View MKE instead. Lovely people, beautiful skyline

Went with a group of 7. No one had any complaints and 7/7 would return. We were celebrating a birthday and had a reservation for 700p. Upon arrival we were quickly taken to the indoor table... when we requested an outdoor table the hostess immediately checked to see if she could accomodate us- and did-flawless transition. We sat down outside on their patio... which was a nice setting. Dimly lit once the sun went down. The server was friendly and prompt. She explained the menu after we received our drinks. All of the food that we had was good. Birthday boy had a scoop of icecream and our server

In the former spot of Wolf's Peach, is a new restaurant with one commonality: the view, hence the name, VIEW. We started a Sunday off with their really very cool mix your own Bloody Mary bar! The waiter brings you a very good poor of Vodka and a separate glass, you go to the bar and pick your garnish, mix, and of course your favorite hot sauce. Fun. We sat on the outside deck and we could have stayed for hours just looking at the skyline of Milwaukee. We did not have much to eat, just grits....and they were fantastic. The place is really trendy in its decor. Five stars for this classic. Have fun

Came to View Mke to try some brunch . The good - the bartender was very friendly and quick to take and fill orders. She made solid suggestion and i ended up ordering The beermosa. It was spectacular and reason enough to stop in. The bad - our waiter seemed to be overly casual with us. We all mentioned later that he seemed annoyed with us and gave us weird vibes. I ended up ordering the short ribs and eggs because i was excited to try a variation of steak and eggs. Unfortunately Its just wasnt very much food for the price and it wasnt very good. It was just ok. The fries were overly seasoned, the

I really liked our first visit to View and will be back to try more. Their beef tartar is unique and delicious. It reminded me of poke and had a miso egg. We also loved the beet dish and the Brussels sprouts. For dessert they had a s'mores creme brulee, which was apt since it was National S'Mores Day! It wasn't like a traditional brulee, no crust to crack into on top, but torched marshmallow over a very rich chocolate pudding/mousse and everything dusted with crumbled graham. We also shared the pistachio layer cake. A great complement to the super sweet s'mores, this was subtle
