Milwaukee ChopHouse's menu of succulent fare begins with ahi tuna tartare with avocado, wasabi, and sriracha ($12) and wagyu beef carpaccio in a white truffle oil with parmigiano reggiano and capers ($13)—both of which sharpen the palate for the main event: the ChopHouse's signature boneless 16-ounce strip steaks prepared au poivre ($35), crab Oscar-style ($42), blue-cheese crusted ($39), or with truffle butter ($39). The kitchen also turns out hot non-bovine entrees such as sautéed sea bass with sundried tomato and basil pesto ($32) and lobster tail ($51), a.k.a. mermaid steak.

Housed in the former Brown Bottle Guest Hall and Hospitality Center in the old Schlitz Brewery, Libiamo basks in the same old-fashioned elegance that made the venue a Milwaukee landmark. A gorgeous ceiling, elaborate woodwork, and chandeliers constructed from massive antlers set the classy yet casual ambience. Paintings of rustic Italy adorn the walls and the beautiful, familiar old bar welcomes patrons like a massive, wooden old friend. As befits the historic setting, you can get original-recipe Schlitz on tap, while ghosts of departed Schlitz cans occasionally roam the bathroom area. Libiamo also lives up to the building’s illustrious precedent with a menu of some of the best authentic Italian food in Milwaukee. Appetizers benefit from Libiamo’s delicious house red sauce. Try the tender spedini—Italian steak rolled with breadcrumbs and cheeses—or fried ravioli (both $7). For lunch, order up one of the delicious and crispy panini sandwiches, like the classic Italian beef ($7.95). Equally crispy are the thin-crust pizzas, including the sophisticated pesto chicken ($9 for small, $17.50 for large) or family-recipe linguine with meatballs ($8.50).

The Allgauer’s menu offers a delicious twist on American comfort food. Courteous servers at the Milwaukee location cover tables in classic American fare such as an Angus NY strip steak layered in roasted portabella, blue-cheese gratin, Yukon mashed potatoes, and fresh spinach ($27) and potato-crusted salmon resting beside sautéed green beans and stone-ground mustard ($20). Press a jumbo button mushroom against your palate and savor its rich roasted-garlic, ham, and blue-cheese insides ($7 in Milwaukee), or crunch a jumbo crab cake with marinated peppers, arugula, bacon, and mustard ($12). A virgin shrimp cocktail ($10) spices up the evening without dampening driving abilities.

Mulligans Irish Pub & Grill keeps customers’ stomachs from crooning doleful ballads with a fully stocked kitchen that fires Irish specialties until 1 a.m. each night. Executive chef Joe Piscatello dapples palates and freshly washed bibs with creations such as the fish ‘n’ chips—battered in Harp lager and lightly fried to a gilded hue ($9.95)—and the pub-style Reuben pizza, which unites shredded corned beef, swiss cheese, and cabbage on a bed of creamy thousand-island sauce ($12.95+). Main courses also include the twin Irish fillets—a duet of 4-ounce tenderloin medallions wrapped in Irish rasher bacon—and the Jameson-glazed Alaskan salmon fillet, served with grilled vegetables and colcannon mashed potatoes ($12.95). While basking in the glow of 12 high-definition television screens and watching favored football teams, diners can explore the intricacies of the cheese-, bacon-, and vegetable-ensconced tavern fries ($7.45) or the Bailey's irish-cream crème brûlée ($4.95). Pints of Guinness ($5) and 15 other draft beers pair with dining selections or raise high to toast mankind's ability to reach top shelves.
