Mader’s 🇩🇪 | The #1 German Experience in Milwaukee!

If you only have time for one restaurant in Milwaukee, make it Mader’s! 🍖✨ This historic gem offers an authentic taste of Germany right in the heart of the city. Did you know? Milwaukee was once the largest German settlement in the U.S.! The Third Ward’s German strip preserves this heritage beautifully, and Mader’s – with over 120 years of history – stands out with incredibly traditional and flavorful dishes. Here’s what we tried 👇 : Liver Dumpling Soup 🍲 Whether you end up loving it or not, it’s a must-try for its uniqueness! A small portion is enough – great for… iron intake? 😉 (Maybe perfect for pregnant folks!) Roasted Half Duck 🦆 Unbeatable value! Crispy skin, tender meat, served with sweet raspberry sauce. A bit on the dry side and the sauce is quite sweet – ideal if you like sweet-savory flavors (hello, Southern taste buds!). Apple Strudel 🍎🍨 THE STAR of the meal! Flaky pastry wrapped around cinnamon-baked apples. Must order it with vanilla ice cream – the contrast of warm strudel and cool ice cream is absolutely heavenly. Arguably the best apple dessert in Milwaukee in years! The menu is huge – from appetizers and mains to desserts and German beers 🍺. The vintage decor and staff dressed in traditional outfits add to the immersive old-world vibe. Even on a weekend night, you’ll easily find a table. Perfect for family dinners, dates, or showing visitors a unique Milwaukee experience! 📍 Mader’s Restaurant 1041 N Doctor M.L.K.Jr Dr, Milwaukee, WI 53203 #LifeInTheUS #WeekendFoodExplore #Foodie #Milwaukee #HiddenGems #GermanFood #TravelWI
