Reviews for Swingin' Door Exchange

Plenty of room for improvement my food was not seasoned or good in taste. They burned my chicken sandwich and undercooked my tuna steak from what I requested. Also, the plating could be better and less messy the two starts are for our waiter! I did like my Bloody Mary and they have decent fries but they also needed salt at least. All in all, you can gauge a restaurant's ability to deliver an hour or two before closing. Most Milwaukee restaurants have been closing early due to the pandemic and have gotten very lazy with their food service to the customers.
This was almost a 4 star review. I was concerned about the reviews of the guy here that gives bad service. When I got there they gave me the weakest old fashioned that I have ever had in my entire life. You could've given me that and told me it was anything other than an old fashioned and I would've believed you. I'm not expecting to be trashed after it but yeesh. This was offset by how good the fish fry was. I had never had bluegill before but it was good. The shrimp was immaculately cooked and seasoned to perfection. The cod was also very good. I loved it.
Fish Fry Friday is good but if you like mussels they are must have..sooo good! Great service with a smile. Nice selection of drinks
