“Glorioso’s Italian Market is a family-owned business located on Brady Street since 1946. Fresh, handmade sausages, mouthwatering deli creations and piping hot pizza are just a few of their specialties. Browse aisles of cheese, wine and pasta. With a vast array of olives, cheeses, wines, imported meats and delectable sandwiches, along with pastries, cookies, and gelato, Glorioso’s is the perfect stop for a great meal. You can also enjoy a wine or beer with your meal in the store. The best part is, they're located right next door!”

“Very close and not usually too busy. Customers almost universally wear masks.”

“One of our favorites for tacos and margaritas! Only a 10-15min walk with a great view of the Milwaukee River. I recommend their Paloma margarita and the Fried Avocado taco! ”

“Best outdoor patio on Brady. This is Brady's "soccer bar" technically. You can meet people of all ages here, music is good and drinks are cheap. Can get a prixe fixe (pronounced pree-fix, because it's french) for $5. Shot and a PBR. ”

“Red Light started as a way for the employees of Ardent to enjoy themselves with family and friends at the end of the week. After a few years of running their pop up shop out of Ardent on weekend nights, their simple menu of tonkotsu ramen and boozy slushies helped Red Light quickly gain popularity. It is now a weekend tradition of Milwaukee’s East Side featuring a much larger menu but with the same funky vibe, now in a restaurant of its own. Visit their website at www.redlightramen.com to view their hours and menu.”
