You might be familiar with the $5 martinis served on Fridays at Metro Lounge in the Hotel Metro, 411 E. Mason St. It’s all well and good for people watching from the big windows facing Milwaukee St.
Now elevate that ambition just a little bit. In fact, head to the rooftop to Zen on Seven – the kind of rooftop bar you thought existed only in Los Angeles. Most people don’t know Zen on Seven is open year-round for private parties, but admittedly it’s better in the summer when the public can take in the view or the waterfall. The outside should be ready when the weather is. There are green details, from the teak benches and comfortable couches to the bamboo flooring and recycled glass tile inside.
Wake-up call: Opening times for Zen on Seven are a little tricky, because it is booked for private parties first and open to the public when there isn’t such an event. It closes at 10 p.m. on weeknights and “turns into a pumpkin at midnight” on weekends, said general manager Sue Kinas.
Amenities: Zen on Seven stretches from the south side of the roof around past the indoor saltwater pool.

Hello Milwaukee wine lovers!
on Nov 17th 2009 in Food/Beverage tagged by Allison | No Comments »I am Toni Johnson, Food and Beverage director of Hotel Metro Milwaukee. I have some very exciting plans for the wine program here at Hotel Metro, one of which I have already implemented. Being a certified advanced sommelier, I am uniquely qualified to put together an eclectic wine by the glass program, train our servers to sell them and then follow up with excellent customer service to make sure our guests are comfortable with what they have for their wine by glass selections.
When you walk into Hotel Metro for dinner you will be given the menu, wine list and of course our nightly specials which have been expertly crafted by our chef and sous chef. On the second page you will find our wine by the glass list, and here are some cliffs notes of how it reads.
