Experience 1960’s Fine Dining with Modern Flair at Buttermint Fine Dining & Cocktails

Did you know that restaurants, as we know them today, were dreamed up and launched in the 1960s? With those original dining establishments as their inspiration, Buttermint Fine Dining & Cocktails is serving up a throwback with a little modern-day flair. Because everyone deserves a memorable dining experience or epic date night once in a while, right? It’s totally worth the 15-minute drive to Shorewood!

Their menu changes seasonally based upon what’s fresh. But, they always have a few raw bar favorites that are perfect to start. Try the tinned clams featuring potato cream. In the 1960s, canned food was huge, so this is a tasty ode to historic favorites. Indulge in a veal sweetbread sauteed with mushrooms or pan-roasted elk loin with candied sweet potatoes, escarole, and black currant bordelaise for your entrees. Pair your meal with a famous Schlitz beer, aka “the beer that made Milwaukee famous”, or a Buttermint signature old-fashioned! Cheers to a one-of-a-kind dining experience.
