LET’S DO LUNCH

Neighborhood Insiders Reveal their Top Picks for Lunch in the Ward

“Lucky Ginger is my go-to for lunch because the food is delicious, the staff is friendly and fun, and the overall vibe of the restaurant is unique. The menu has so many Asian Fusion options for whatever you’re craving and spice levels for whatever you can handle. It’s perfect for lunch with a group of coworkers or grabbing a bite and a cocktail at the bar with friends on the weekend.”

“In the summer, Milwaukee Sail Loft. I love watching all the activity on the river and they are located at the entrance to Lake Michigan, so there is always traffic on the river. The Cajun Chicken Chop salad is a favorite dish. In the winter, Riley’s Sandwich Co. & Social House. They have a great atmosphere and being dog friendly makes it a great place for lunch! The fall-off-the-bone Sous Vide Chicken Wings are amazing and make a great warm up in the winter.”

“A favorite lunch spot is hard to narrow down because we have so many great places. Some of my favorites are FreshFin Poké, Pat’s Rib Place and Margarita Paradise — but my very favorite is Press. It’s fast, convenient, and has healthy options (as well as fun guilty pleasures). The owners are always there and remember my likes. My favorite sandwich is the bacon and brie.”

“St. Paul Fish Market at the Milwaukee Public Market. I love the freshness of the offerings. So hot, fresh and delicious. The walleye is the absolute best.”
