Goodkind.... I wanted to like you so, so much. But I left more disappointed than I've ever left any restaurant I've dined at in Milwaukee thus far. This is definitely not an overexaggeration by any means. The ONLY positive things that I could say about this place is that they carry New Glarus Strawberry Rhubarb beer and that our server/bartender was friendly. I should've known after our first taste (Fromage Fort) that everything was going to be a slippery slope from there on out. It was overpowered by Gorgonzola (which I love, btw) followed by an intense slap in the face of a bitter unknown aftertaste, whatever the hell that could have possibly been. This was paired with a cold piece of baguette and a sad selection of raw veggies on the side. The Steam Bay Harbor Mussels lacked any kind of flavor that could've possibly been infused. The broth resembled canned chicken broth, the low sodium version. The chickpeas scattered all over in an insulting amount were undercooked and many of the actual mussels were missing from it's shell. We had to request lime and salt to make it the least bit edible. The Spicy Crab pasta was seriously one of the most disrespectful plates I've ever eaten. It wasn't spicy, not even to a toddler I would assume. It was served hot and cold in various parts of the dish. It lacked salt and love in an unforgiving way. The server said it was their best seller... to an audience with a bland palette, that is. I prayed to the food Gods that our final dish, The Hanger Steak, would somehow magically provide some hope for this horrific experience, but to our dismay, it just didn't. The pesto lacked any herb flavor that should've been released upon being blended. The WHOLE thing tasted like extra virgin olive oil. Nothing more, nothing less. The steak was dry and they had the audacity to place it upon what seemed to be their version of panzanella. I cringe just thinking about all of the raw elements on that plate that did not pair well with a steak dish. By this point, we were just ready to get the bill and leave this place as fast as our feet allowed. Goodkind, I've got two words for you. Bland and pathetic. To anyone reading this that has been blessed with a palette and an appreciation of delicious, quality food made with love... do yourself a favor and run the opposite direction. Take your $100 and spend it with dignity elsewhere. At least you'll leave happy and not sick with disgust and shame.
