When you walk in, it feels and looks like Frank Sinatra or Dean Martin would of loved this place. The bartenders greet you...you sit at the bar, order your food and then you are seated at your table. The staff is... (more)

After reading the posting dated 1/18/2009, I felt as if I needed to write a review in order to defend a good friend. Coerpers, now just 5 O'Clock Club, is an old friend. She is right, the atmosphere feels like the 1950's;... (more)

After reading, and enjoying, the variation in reviews I think I can sort things out. First, the restaurant is no longer caled "Coerper's 5 O'Clock Club, it is the "Five O'Clock Club House of Steaks". The reason is that... (more)

We just ate at Coerper's for the first time during the week of 12/2/07. After hearing for years about how great this place was..I perhaps expected too much. My steak was okay but by no means was it extraordinary,... (more)

When Coerper's 5 O'Clock Club changed ownership a couple years back, I was worried that Milwaukee lost one of the best steak joints it had. To my relief (and many others) the new ownership did a superb job at preserving... (more)

I heard it was good. Unfortunately, I did not experience that. The general area it's located does not make one feel safe. The ambiance is supper club 1970. I personally like a place that looks like it was updated within... (more)

Coerper's is classic. After moving away from Milwaukee, my fiance and I find ourselves struggling to find a steak house that even comes close to Coerper's. Absolutely no comparison. The food, the service, the... (more)

Coerper's is not in the best neighborhood, but it's got this great 50's old-school charm. I love this place, atmosphere and their steaks are the best. Everytime we go, we grab the filets -- incredible! Salads are... (more)

<b>The Scene </b> <br>For the past 50 years, this has been the place for steak in Milwaukee. Little has changed in this 1950s-style supper club; why mess with success? Like a radio contest, the phone starts ringing... (more)

Coerper's doesn't have much in the atmosphere department, but the steak is the best I've ever had. I've looked long and hard for a better place, but there is none in my book. If you want a great steak, this is the place. If... (more)

What can I say but WOW?!!! This place is off the chart when it comes to good steak. The beef starts at 28 ounces and goes up from there. Despite the HUGE portions, the place is very reasonably priced. But remember two very... (more)
