Opened in 1993, The Final Approach is Milwaukee’s favorite casual family-owned restaurant, offering eclectic American cuisine and an atmosphere of warm hospitality. There is also a sunroom open all year with an outside patio area for seasonal dinning. All with gentle lighting which contributes to an intimate and contemporary feel. Our Menu offers many varieties of dining and the full menu can also be ordered for take out. From soup and wonderful salads to delectable and filling steak dinners, The Final Approach offers great food at reasonable prices.

It is with a heavy heart that I post the passing of Finals famous bartender, Doug. RIP, Dougy. You will be missed.
