Entrepreneur and philanthropist Michael Cudahy and restaurateur Joe Bartolotta today they will open the Harbor House the restaurant at the lakefront site of the former Pieces of Eight restaurant in downtown Milwaukee in early July.
“It looks like a beehive down there right now,” said Cudahy. “And, we are working hard to open our doors in early July.”
The new restaurant will be located between the Milwaukee Art Museum and Discovery World.
“You couldn’t find a better location,” Cudahy said. “Milwaukee is a great city and we deserve a great restaurant on the lake that people will be proud to frequent.”
Bartolotta said the restaurant’s menu will have emphasis on fresh and ocean seafood and steaks.
“There will be many options for diners, from appetizers and small plates to full-course meals at a variety of price-points,” Bartolotta said. “We want people to feel at home at Harbor House.”
Architecturally, the new restaurant will have a traditional New England waterfront motif.
Harbor House will seat about 260 people, making it one of Bartolotta’s largest restaurants.
