our story
What started out as a butcher shop concept, has evolved and changed over the years to become a full-service restaurant and butcher shop concept. On the one hand, Bavette is a modern rendition of a time-honored tradition, which is that of the neighborhood butcher shop. Through the butcher shop, Bavette strives to honor those traditions of quality and excellence by sourcing whole animals raised responsibly on small, local farms and custom cutting the meat. By getting in whole carcasses, Bavette achieves more sustainability and less waste. In addition, Bavette provides total traceability of its meat back to a singular farm and a singular animal.
KAREN BELL
Karen Bell is a Milwaukee native with over 20 years of culinary experience around the world. She has lived and worked in Chicago, San Francisco, Paris, Madrid, and Caracas, with each place adding to her culinary identity. Along the way and as her career progressed, she became more interested in where our food comes from and how it gets to our plates. After opening and successfully running her own restaurant in Madrid, Spain, she decided to move back to Milwaukee to embark on a new chapter. Opening a butcher shop was her way of carrying on a dying craft, honoring time-old culinary traditions as well as providing a direct link from farmer to consumer. When not in the kitchen, Bell has a passion for travel and food and wine from around the world and now leads food and wine trips to mostly Spain, but also Portugal and South America. Bell was honored to be nominated as a semi-finalist for James Beard Best Chef, Midwest region, in 2017 and a finalist in 2018.

Katie O:
Such a beautiful restaurant! I am normally a creature of habit - when I find one good thing on the menu, I order it over and over again. Here though - I'm always trying new things! I'm always surprised by the inventiveness of the food here...

Food, service = amazing! Highly recommended. The burger, steak tartare, and pork cheeks and desserts were standouts.

The charcuterie board (chef's choice) was spectacular! We got 3 meats and 3 cheeses with loads of condiments (jams, hazelnut butter, almonds, etc.). The pate was delicious with pistachios. We also got Asian chicken wing which was very flavorful and crispy...

Bavette has delicious sandwiches and thick, crusty bread that has been toasted to perfection.If you're looking for a grown up sandwich experience, try Bavette. I love coming here because it's tasty, and it's in such a cool part of Milwaukee. Great bread, tasty meat options.

Nataliya Z:
Absolutely the best restaurant in Milwaukee! This hip restaurant combining the concept of the butcher shop and open Spanish market cafe offers a very eclectic menu influenced by the French, Spanish, Italian and Asian cuisine for lunch and dinner. I couldn't resist and have chosen the Jamon Iberico for my first course...
