When thinking about great steakhouses, or simply great restaurants in downtown Milwaukee, the conversation should begin and end with Carnevor. Located on the emerging power strip of downtown Milwaukee restaurants, Milwaukee Street, Carnevor has more than enough hearty comfort food chops to satisfy the gastronomic needs of any veteran carnivore. Although certainly not billed as a place for vegetarians, Carnevor does have a few entrees such as an amish chicken dish, pork chops and fresh fish to take care of restaurant goers who don’t relish in their signature cuts of steak.

Carnevor is chic and contemporary dining at its best; a modern steakhouse that breaks from the traditional steakhouse mold, yet still firmly rooted in the distinct American chophouse tradition. Using strictly prime cuts of the best beef, Carnevor serves steak, expertly broiled to order, in a variety of cuts. Everything from their superb house barrel cut filet mignon to the succulent dry aged New York strip to the hearty 24oz porterhouse, is cut and aged in house and can be served with different sauces and toppings making each return trip to Milwaukee’s best steakhouse a new experience each time. In addition, for the worldly steak connoisseur in us all, Milwaukee’s Carnevor serves a nightly Kobe steak special—Kobe beef being one of the most highly sought after steak choices in the world.

Pairing with Carnevor’s amazing cuts of prime steak is one of the absolute best wine lists of any restaurant in downtown Milwaukee. Featuring award winning wine selections from predominately American wineries, Carnevor’s list is over 350 strong with 26 of those being offered by the glass in phenomenal Riedel Glas crystal. Carnevor also offers a wide selection of fine cocktails made only with premium liquor and a decent beer list of domestics and imports to compliment the main menu attraction of world-class steaks, chops, fowl and seafood.

When looking to host a private event at a Milwaukee restaurant, whether a business or social gathering, Carnevor steakhouse can accommodate parties up to 50. With an outstanding contemporary steakhouse menu that incorporates the best aspects of traditional steakhouse restaurants with chic modern amenities, outstanding service from a classically trained staff and an attitude that always puts the needs of the customer first, Carnevor is definitely a prime example—perhaps the best restaurant example to date—of a new direction in the downtown Milwaukee restaurant scene. You may not be a carnivore at heart, but Carnevor can turn anyone into a steak lover from the first bite.
