For over five decades, Balistreri’s has been a cornerstone of Milwaukee’s culinary scene, serving authentic Italian-American cuisine that captures the heart and soul of Italy while embracing the vibrant flavors of Wisconsin. With two cherished locations — Balistreri’s Italian-American Ristorante in Wauwatosa and Balistreri’s Bluemound Inn in Milwaukee — we’ve built a legacy of exceptional food, warm hospitality, and unforgettable dining experiences. Family-owned and operated since 1968, our Italian restaurants are more than just places to eat; they’re gathering spots where locals and visitors alike come to share stories, savor Italian food, and create memories.
