| Description [edit] | |
|
After Fountain Blue closed its doors several years ago, local business enthusiast Lee Barczak and his wife Jane Schilz stepped in to return the circa 1911 building to its glory as a boutique hotel and cafe.
Now named Sheridan's/Sheridan House, 5133 S. Lake Dr., an inadvertent throwback to the buildings 1920s stint as the Sheridan Hotel, Barczak and Schilz have painstakingly transformed every square inch of what is now a 12-room getaway in what they have coined Milwaukee Metros South Side. The rooms here are classic with a decidedly masculine bend and reflect famous worldly vineyard names, perhaps a nod to the couples sister business, Sheridans Finest Wine and Generous Spirits, in the Milwaukee Public Market. The cafe, which opened in early September 2007, is art nouveau meets comfortable classic and the menu lends an authoritative twist to all foods ordinary. |

I grew up in the neighborhood, and was happy to see someone renovate this beautiful old building. My wife and I went for an early brunch on a Sunday. It was immediately apparent that the staff was now where near up to speed as we stood and waited for over 5 minutes to be seated in the 1/3 full restaurant. The service only went down hill from there as my wife waited over 10 minutes to have her coffee poured. Even though the place was barely 1/3 full the staff seemed to be racing around in circles, and not really getting much done. After waiting close to 40 minutes to get our food, the ONLY saving grace was that it was quite delicious. I don't blame the staff. They obviously aren't being managed by anyone with any actual restaurant experience. Firing the restaurant manager would be a good first step in making this a desirable destination for breakfast or lunch.
