I would say this is my favorite restaurant in Milwaukee. The staff is friendly and I’ve always loved my food. Prices seem to have increased a tiny bit recently (as it has everywhere) but it is still a great deal.

Food was great. The butterscotch budino was amazing. Also had the pork belly and it was so good. We had the fish fry and it was quite good. Service was a bit slow so I gave them a 4 star on that

Every bite and sip was superb along with the service and ambience. We ordered everything gluten free and will be sure to return in the future. Wonderful date night!

Tonight we enjoyed a wonderful dining experience with dear friends at Tess. The food was absolutely fabulous, and we enjoyed a beautiful evening on the patio. We have been fans of Tess for many years, but tonight was exceptional! Bravo Tess! You are a gem!

We had a wonderful evening meal out on their quaint patio. The food and service were excellent. Don’t miss the fresh loaf of bread….and don’t make the mistake of only getting half a loaf! Tess is a Milwaukee gem.

By far one of the best meals we have had. We live in DC area with many good restaurants and Tess was better than some of our best restaurants. We had Porkbelly appetizer, Patio salad, Porkchop special and Scottish Salmon. All excellent! And drinks were great. Super waitress too! Milwaukee is lucky to have a restaurant like this!
