There are a number of trendy Milwaukee steak restaurants where being seen and looking sharp are as important as what's on the menu. Coerper's isn't one of them. The neighborhood around Coerper's is sketchy at best, hence the armed guard watching your car while you eat. The dark wood-paneled decor is '50s kitsch, and you don't have to be dressed in your best to eat here. However, Coerper's isn't concerned with style; they're more intent on cooking up quality food. Massive, juicy steaks are the reason this dining institution is packed with people five nights a week. T-bones, New York strips and Coerper's signature filet mignon are smothered in a buttery sauce and cooked to perfection. The steaks are tough to finish in one sitting, even by the heartiest carnivores, but Coerper's wraps up the leftovers in a plastic bag so you have a snack (or entire meal) for later. Dinner includes a large salad, excellent sourdough bread and a relish tray that harkens back to northwoods supper clubs. And like an old-school supper club, dinner is ordered at the bar before you even sit down, which gives you a chance to begin the overindulgence by sipping a brandy old-fashioned. -- SM

    Not only was the food good, but you were actually full when you left the place. Excellent dining experience at an affordable price.

    BEEF is BIG!! Not only in size but flavor. The taters are pillow soft and delicious with house seasoned sour cream. Salad is better than ever and dressings are fresh and full of flavor. Service has gotten a ton better as well. I also like that the dining room is a table or two bigger and a little brighter. Kudos to the King of Steak's-Chef Rich Alvarado for his years of excellence and being the "People's Champ" of the Milwaukee Restaurant seen!

    Funny how I grew up in Milwaukee as an expert on great steaks. I've been cooking steaks since I was 10 and know great meat when I sink my teeth into it.

    Recently, I flew from Arizona to Milwaukee for the sole purpose of taking my father out for a surprise dinner on his birthday. I called the 5-0 a week before to make reservations...I hopped on the plane, landed in Milwaukee, and ate at 5:30 p.m.

    My choice cut has always been a porterhouse and when you get one there you get your bang for the buck. At 38.00 per it feels like a steal to get such a great cut of beef at that price.

    Medium is all you need to have a wonderful experience that exceeds all expectations. The salads at abundant with choice of 4 dressings and more if you need them. The bread is tasty and very fluffy.

    By far the 5-0 is THE BEST steak house I have every been. I know live in the Scottsdale are and the abundant steak houses here don't compare.

    Bravo
