So glad my brother lives in wauwatosa and I can come when I visit. This is my second time going and it still was delicious withzero disappointment? Our server was ok, nothing above and beyond. Kinda felt like she was ready to go home.

Our host was very kind and got our table ready even though we didn?t have a reservation. I do recommend making one ahead of time because it seemed to get very busywhile we waited for our food, which was a very long wait. It took nearly an hour for our food to arrive, and we got there beforethe rush started. Our server was professional and friendly, she checked up on us often. My family said they wouldn?t come backbecause the food was okay but not great. I, however, would come back for the Shrimp Scampi, aside from the strong garlic flavorand garlic pieces, I actually enjoyed this dish. We also got a tiramisu for desert and were extremely disappointed. It was verydry and thick, and lacked coffee flavor, I do not recommend the tiramisu here. Over all had an okay experience at Tenuta?s.
