This was my second time here, but my first time for lunch. I came with a couple of friends, with the goal of trying their highly praised Duck Fat Burgers, which were rated as the second-best burger in Milwaukee by Milwaukee Magazine. We were not disappointed. It was a Wednesday, and we arrived a little before noon. There were a few other people there, some at the bar and others at the small tables. The place is a little loud, with lots of hard surfaces and music playing. We were greeted by a very friendly server, who seemed to be doing pretty much everything except the cooking. There are a couple of different burgers on the menu, but we all went with the Duck Fat Burger. It is a one-third pound patty, cooked to order. My medium-rare came out exactly as I like it. The combination of caramelized onion, cheese, and thousand island was well balanced. The bun was nicely grilled, and the crunch lasted through the entire meal. The French fries were hot and flavorful, with a very crusty exterior and a soft inner texture. I talked to the cook, who let me in on the secret, they double fry them. With the exception of the noise level, it was an excellent burger experience. The service was very good (thanks, Jessica). I will definitely be coming back again.

Cute small restaurant in West Allis with a seed-to-table and Vietnamese fusion flair to their elevated dishes. I had it bookmarked for a while and actually wasn't aware it was Asian-fusion dishes, which made me so pleasantly surprised because it's hard to find good Asian food. The flavors overall were amazing and I would come back to try more of their dishes! ROASTED BEETS: I don't usually like beets but the mix of the blue cheese, orange and beets was actually so yummy! Would order again DUCK FAT BURGER: Couldn't really taste much besides a standard burger but the fries were really good. THAI CURRY: This was amazing! Tasted the most 'asian' out of all the dishes

I ordered over the phone and was told the food would be ready in 20 minutes. I arrived 30 minutes later, but it still wasn't ready for another hour. When I asked about the delay, the staff said they were "just wrapping it up," yet it somehow took another 15 minutes. The food itself was mediocre and overpriced. Definitely not worth the wait--I won't be coming back.

We had a very pleasant evening here! Haven't been back since probably 2019 when they first opened, so I was pretty excited. Casual, cute and romantic vibes. The food menu is not big but has everything from appetizers to entrees and desserts. We liked the flavorful bulgogi meatballs and vegan Thai curry noodles - absolutely perfect to enjoy on a cooler day. From our table we can see the chefs cooking. Everything was prepped and checked carefully before serving. Love love love.

Just dropped in for a quick lunch. Great food, great service and super comfortable atmosphere. This is a definite come again place! Can't wait to come for dinner one weekend.

My mom and I visited Wild Roots for Saturday brunch to celebrate a belated Mother's Day. We entered a relatively empty dining room around 11am and were seated right away. The space is cute and inviting, despite weird avocado walls. The flower vases on each table were accented with sweet little origami pieces. Decor was eclectic nature. Our service was solid without being intrusive. The menu is an interesting hybrid with Asian influences prominent in many dishes and many French touches. We started with cocktails. My mom's rum punch was good, but might have need a little extra punch, maybe more citrus. My Whiskey Roots was good - very Maker's forward. Somehow it managed to taste more like Makers than straight Maker's. My omelette was light and creamy and fluffy. It was truly enjoyable and very Parisian. The accompanying roast potatoes were seasoned well and didn't need any additional salt, which is amazing to me. My mother's Croque Madame special was a sight to behold - tall and impressive on the plate. She thought it was excellent. The ham was generous, perhaps even too much, and the sauce as cheesy and rich. The egg cooked perfectly, she really enjoyed her meal as well. We certainly intend to go back and try another meal at Wild Roots.

Stumbled upon this gem by accident. So glad we did. The food was amazing, the atmosphere was cozy, and the staff were very friendly. I have already suggested this restaurant to family. Definitely stopping by again!

Called on a busy Friday night and we were able to snag a 5:30pm reservation. Our server was great - knowledgeable and sweet. We had a tiny tin offer for a free app, so we started with the meatballs. Good flavor and nice start to the meal. I had a mixed drink and my friend appreciated the wine list. We both ordered the curry for our main dishes, mine with shrimp and hers with chicken. Again, very fresh and flavorful. I would recommend the shrimp over the other protein choices. Finished our meal with a skillet cookie. Sleek and comfortable atmosphere. Prices were elevated but worth the quality. Excited to return with my husband!

I'm surprised I haven't heard more people talk about Wild Roots! It was a busy little spot Friday night. Small, curated menu with lots of meat and veggie options. The nasty bits were a fun try for the table. Excited to go back to check out their other menus.

I loved it when they first opened, but lately the menu has gotten a little too eclectic for our tastes. I love the location, the space, the atmosphere and the concept, but if they don't serve anything we can eat, none of that matters.
