Oggie's Kitchen & Bar — Restaurant in Milwaukee

My family and I came to this establishment for the first time to celebrate my mother's birthday. Upon arrival, we were given waters and told our server would be with us shortly. We waited for an extended period of time before anyone else came to our table. Also just want to note. It was only us and 2-3 other tables in there at the time. So we didn't understand why our wait time was so long to order. We decided on what we wanted for food and gave our order to our server(whose name I remember but won't say) We were told at that moment that the restaurant had run out of biscuits and could not make the meal we asked for. It was only 10 AM and they opened up at 7 AM, so we were a little surprised that they had already ran out biscuits, but we were okay with that. We finished ordering and then she walked away to put the order in. A few minutes later she then came back to let us know that they had discontinued one of the other items that we had ordered, but had not taken it off the menu, yet. At this point, we decided that we were going to leave because they already told us two of the menu items that we wanted, they weren't able to offer to us. My father politely said we were disappointed and that he would pay for our drinks, and then we will leave. Again, this was our first experience at this restaurant. So with that being said, my first impression is, I would not recommend this place to anyone else. Due to food not being available and service not being the best. Im hoping this establishment just had an off day but my family will not be back after the experience we had. Super disappointing as we had such high hopes. No apology and no care for the disappointment we shared in...

When you go to a company holiday party in downtown Milwaukee and have a great time with all your co-workers for hours, do you just go home afterwards? No! You and a coworker, who parked their car in the same block you did, walk together to the cars, but then you espy the Hotel Metro and detour into Oggie's for another hour or two, of course! You will find excellent drinks, a gorgeous hotel lobby and bar, fine service, and fun listening to the insights of a coworker who's passionate about many things, to put it mildly. It's an adventure when you ask the bartender to make you a drink that's her specialty, and she is surprised by the question and doesn't know what her specialty is. But she eventually suggests something that turns out to be really tasty and has an odd name having nothing to do with the drink, I can't remember what it was, but it tasted ginger-y. The name was something like Redoubtable. I had a coconut porter that was the best I've ever, ever had--and I've had a lot of them! I hope we have our holiday party at Oggie's next year. (I looked it up, the drink was called Up Rooted. That's not...

Do NOT eat the Food I had seen the restaurant happy hour advertised on social media. I was so excited - ended up meeting one of my colleagues down on April 2nd, 2024 at 5:00 p.m. - the atmosphere was absolutely beautiful, the Aesthetics of the restaurant are beautiful. We sat down and we were greeted very pleasantly by the bartender Aletheia. Who was basically handling the entire bar and if I'm not mistaken the restaurant drink orders by herself.... gracefully and with a smile on her face, she didn't miss a Beat. She was definitely the Saving Grace of this day I would never come back here if it wasn't for her. We ordered two zucchini fritters, two chicken wings, fries and schnitzel sliders. This food was absolutely deplorable - the Schnitzel was burnt and Incredibly dry flavorless the elote wings tasted like they've been dipped in vinegar, the zucchini fritters were dry and the garlic fries came out limp - one of the worst Food experiences I've had in a while. I highly recommend their happy hour for drinks only do not...
