Any suggestions for a lunch spot in Glendale and a mid-range priced restaurant near the Milwaukee Art Museum? We enjoy all types of food, interested in finding places with great atmospheres. Thanks!

Glendale is mostly fast-food, chain restaurants.

Enjoy the museum & don't miss the Impressionist's & post-Impressionists areas - they're hard to find, but amazing!

They are open at lunch. I agree that "Lake Park Bistro" would be a wonderful choice for dinner. It's less than a mile north of the Art Museum and is in a lovely park with a beautiful setting & historic building, overlooking Lake Michigan. Excellent food with wonderful warm service. You will always remember your visit. One of Milwaukee's best restaurants. ( make resevations -- very popular destination. ) Link: http://www.lakeparkbistro.com Tue May 10 14:41:54 -0700 2005 673858 0 Great River Road 1 673886 Hi there ! Another restaurant suggestion for you--- French bistro "Coquette Cafe" in Milwaukee is offering a special menu in conjunction with the Art Museum's Degas sculpture exhibit. According to menu info on their website, each course represents the 3 regions where Degas spent time as an artist. Check their website for more info, plus it's a fun informative website. Chef/owner Sanford D'Amato is an award winning chef, and his two Milwaukee restaurants are among the best in Milwaukee. P.S. Let us know how you enjoyed your visit and meals.... thanks Link: http://www.coquettecafe.com/ Tue May 10 18:11:38 -0700 2005 673858 0 Great River Road
