William's Pine Gables is definitely worth a visit if you are in the Northwoods. One of the few remaining super clubs. The food, drinks, and service are outstanding. The menu is diverse and everyone is sure to find something they like. Don't be afraid to try items like the seared Ahi Tuna, it's amazing!

This is always one of our absolute favorite places to eat. Incredible value, great service by Ellen (I think). Double stuffed cheese bread and beignets are our favorites, as well as flat bread sandwiches and waffle fries. The eir half salad with add on chicken is a great portion size too. Hands down one of the places we will go back to and never get sick of going to.

We had family Sunday dinner and enjoyed the Sunday Santinos’s lasagna. It was fabulous. Caprese salad and wonderful pizza, flourless chocolate cake, and tiramisu. The bartender is amazing!

About the restaurant

It’s been over four years since guests last tasted the Sicilian dishes from longtime Milwaukee restaurant Giovanni’s. But all of that changes with Safina: a new casual Italian concept that comes to the historic building at 785 N. Jefferson St.

Focusing on comforting dishes with roots in Sicily and the southern regions of Italy, Safina's goal is to keep the menu familiar and accessible. The restaurant also features a full bar and second-level seating, complete with wood and marble finishes that highlight the rustic, modern Italian ambiance.

Milwaukee

About the restaurant

You are cordially invited to visit Transfer Pizzeria Café, located in the Harbor District on the corner of 1st and Mitchell Streets. Established in 2008, the namesake is Transfer Pharmacy, a classic cornerstone drugstore from a bygone era that for decades supplied a thriving community with goods and services as evidenced by the stained glass windows still in place. The pharmacy was appropriately named for the constant activity that took place just outside - the boarding, departures, and transfers of the countless daily commuters of the time. The tradition of a reliable cornerstone establishment continues today, as Transfer Pizzeria delivers a unique dose of delicious pizza, drink, atmosphere, and friendly service.

We keep an active wait-list and gladly accommodate walk-ins as part of both our lunch and dinner service.
