Rare Steakhouse - Milwaukee

Rare Steakhouse - Milwaukee Created by Wisconsin natives for Wisconsin diners. The Rare Experience is one of a kind.
(761)

Noble Chef Hospitality's Rare Steakhouse offers a premier dining experience. Created by Wisconsin natives for Wisconsin diners, Rare features USDA Prime steaks from Meats by Linz of Chicago, top-of-the-line seafood, certified sommeliers to guide guests in choosing from a selection of more than 720 wines, and truly remarkable service. Rare Milwaukee boasts a classic and cozy setting, complete with

private dining rooms and space equipped with technology for meeting and conference capabilities. Inspired by the old nostalgic romance of great American steakhouses, Jack Sosnowski, owner and CEO, took the best elements of steakhouses across the nation, and added in a local flare to create the Rare Steakhouse experience. In addition to having a diverse, quick and affordable lunch menu and serving one of the best dinners in town, Rare is also quickly becoming a go-to Happy Hour spot thanks in part to its half-priced appetizers, half-priced wines by the glass and $8 specialty cocktails.

The cold weather might be lingering outside, but inside at Rare Milwaukee your kind words keep us warm.

A big thank you to Sarah for the wonderful review and for recognizing one of the best in the business. Shoutout to our veteran Captain Raj for delivering the Rare Experience and taking such great care of our guests.

Moments like these remind us why we love what we do. Thank you for dining with us and for continuing to support Rare Milwaukee.

Meet our Back of House team. While our Captains deliver the Rare experience in the dining room, it all begins right here in the kitchen. From early morning prep to lunch and dinner service, cleaning and butchering our proteins, building recipes, and cooking side by side, this team works tirelessly to deliver the experience you all know and love.

Fun fact: Chef Roman has been with Rare nearly since the beginning — close to 8 years. We’ve had the privilege of watching him grow from dishwasher to sauté and broiler, and now working the pass, all while attending school and serving in the U.S. Army National Guard.

Together, we are Rare Milwaukee!

We’re excited to welcome Jesús as the newest addition to our kitchen team here at Rare Steakhouse Milwaukee!

Jesús joins us with experience from several well-known Milwaukee establishments and steakhouses, bringing a strong passion for precision, quality, and great hospitality. Since joining the team, Chef Roman and Jesús have been working side-by-side behind the grill, making sure every steak that leaves our kitchen is cooked to absolute perfection.

When it comes to his favorite cut at Rare, Jesús doesn’t hold back — he goes straight for the Signature Japanese A5 Hokkaido Wagyu Striploin. Rich, buttery, and unforgettable… just the way Wagyu should be.

If you’re joining us for dinner this weekend, there’s a good chance Jesús will be helping fire up your steak!

Rich, smooth, and a little indulgent.

Our Banana Bread Espresso Martini is part of our Mijenta Tequila Feature of the Month, showcasing the versatility of this award-winning, additive-free tequila. Made with Mijenta Cristalino, banana liqueur, Kahlúa, Licor 43, and fresh espresso, it’s layered with warm banana bread notes, bold coffee, and a silky finish.

Wine night at Rare Steakhouse Milwaukee!

Take advantage of our bottle specials tonight — 50% off bottles $99 and under, and 25% off bottles $100 and over.

A highlight from the lineup is the Pentad from Seven Hills Winery in Walla Walla Valley. This Bordeaux-style blend is rich and structured with layers of dark fruit, cassis, and subtle oak, finishing smooth and balanced. It’s the kind of wine that was made to be on the table with a great steak.

Join us tonight, pick a bottle, and elevate your dinner experience at Rare Steakhouse Milwaukee!

Parmesan-crusted calamari steak, perfectly crisped and finished with Calabrian chili, chili oil, and a rich béarnaise poured tableside.

Savory, buttery, with just the right amount of heat.

The kind of dish that sets the tone for the entire night at Rare Steakhouse Milwaukee!

From saw to table.

Our 45-day dry-aged CAB Prime Ribeye — cut in-house from the primal, aged to perfection, and grilled exactly the way a steak like this deserves to be.

26 ounces of deep beef flavor, incredible marbling, and that signature dry-aged richness.

Pair it with a glass of Matthews Cabernet Sauvignon from Washington’s Columbia Valley — a perfect match for a steak like this. Notes of blackberry, cassis, dark cherry, and cocoa meet structured tannins that cut beautifully through the richness of the ribeye while the subtle oak and spice complement the char from the grill.

Wagyu Wednesday at Rare Steakhouse Milwaukee!

Chef John’s latest feature is all about bold flavor in one perfect bite!

Hokkaido A5 Wagyu layered over toasted baguette from North Shore Boulangerie , crispy Carr Valley bread cheese, and house-made foie gras pâté. Finished with pickled onions, fresh microgreens, and a touch of sea salt.

Rich. Savory. Completely unforgettable.

Come try it while it lasts.
