    First timers on 11/16/24. Everything about our visit was outstanding. The food (I had the Pork Chop and my wife had the Walleye) was perfect. Even the basic side salad was interesting and delicious and thoughtfully prepared. Being a distillery, the cocktails were fabulous. The room was inviting and social and still "private" enough. Will be going back. Been a long time since we've been so pleased.

    We were at The Social as part of MKE downtown dining. The elote soup and the arugula salad were both very good. I was there with a party of four. We each had a different one of the entrees and we all pronounce them very good. I was surprised however that the sloppy joe sliders were actually better than the buttermilk chicken sliders. For dessert most of us had the Strawberry Shortcake and of course that was good too. Overall a very pleasant dining experience and the service was very good also.
