Milwaukee’s Southside Dining Week

Join the celebration of Milwaukee's vibrant Southside community at a free preview party featuring food, music, and interactive chef demonstrations. You'll get to sample complimentary bites from local restaurants while watching live cooking presentations by chefs from Chefs Latinos Wisconsin. The afternoon includes entertainment from multiple bands, so there's plenty to keep the whole family engaged while you explore the flavors that define this unique neighborhood. This event kicks off a full week of Southside dining deals, running through early October. During Dining Week, you can visit participating restaurants to try their signature dishes at special prices—just let your server know you're there for the event to access the discounts. The preview party gives you a chance to discover new favorites and support local Southside businesses, all in one afternoon with free admission and no registration required.
