Triskele’s (1801 S. Third St.) is one of Milwaukee’s best-kept dining
secrets. It sits in a former corner tavern on a quiet residential street not
far from the Allen-Bradley Clock Tower. The menu has seen many changes since
the place opened a few years ago. The kitchen is open and everything is
prepared behind the bar. In addition to numerous seafood and vegetarian dishes,
some fine beef short ribs are served as well. The prices are never excessive,
and excellent deals can be found on Tuesdays and Thursdays. On Tuesday,
all-you-can-eat Prince Edward Island
mussels are just $8 per person. Enjoy them prepared in a poblano pepper cream
or with shallots and chardonnay. On Thursday, all appetizers are half-price.
This includes the mussels again, along with other choices like Cuban black
beans with chorizo, brandied chicken liver pate and bruschetta. The menu is a
contemporary delight.
