    I came here on a weeknight to celebrate my birthday & it was a lovely time! The vibes were great and the restaurant was very comfortable. The staff were attentive and very nice. Drinks: O' Mama: this drink was so clear that looks clear water with a rosemary sprig! However the taste of the cocktail was well balanced and tasty. Birch Manhattan: a nice fall drink. Food: Ricotta Roe Tomato Bites: wow! So creamy and umami bite to start off the meal. What a nice surprise! Ricotta Filled Pasta: This was so delicious. The pasta was perfectly cooked and the chanterelles gave such an umami bite! Contramar- Inspired Fish: loved this inspired dish from the Mexico City Restaurant Contramar. The fish was cooked well and I loved the acidity of the dish. The freshly made tortillas had a great texture and went well with the fish. Brick Chicken: this perfectly seasoned crispy chicken dish was great! The peaches were so sweet and I loved the sweet and salty bites.

    Unbelievably amazing food. We enjoyed the tasting menu at the Chef's bar. Each dish had a perfect blend of flavor and was beautiful. Enjoyed the cocktails too! Highly recommend!

    What a fun girls night out dinner at @birchonpleasant! Highly recommend booking a reservation at the Chef's Table if you can! The restaurant features farm-to-table cuisine, offering the freshest ingredients to its diners. Chef Kyle has received two nominations from the James Beard Foundation Awards! Although they were a little behind with our reservation time, we headed to the bar to get a head start . We ordered Charred Beef Carpaccio for starters, Contramar Inspired Fish and Wood Roasted Pork Chop for our main course. Both our fish and pork chop were cooked perfectly with the right amount of seasoning. I do love the vibe of the restaurant. Very trendy yet classy and casual. Staff was attentive and made good recommendations on wine pairings.

    Milwaukee's finest and the BEST. Went back and took our friends. We were celebrating hubby's birthday. Amazing gesture from the kitchen. They sent a "beer tartare" for the four of us on the house. First of all, not a beet fan. However, what I ate was out of this world. My hubby is gluten intolerant and the wrapper they had the tartare was in was gluten free. I mean, the kitchen staff thinks of every little detail and hence, why the service at Birch is impeccable. Our friends who do not have an adventurous pallet, loved everything we ordered. We sent all the plates back clean and we are not ashamed. Not an ounce to be wasted. We continue to try other amazing restaurants in Milwaukee and still, nothing compares to Birch. Thank you for continuing to be amazing.
