Located at 4488 N Oakland Ave, Shorewood, WI 53211, Cloud Red stands out with its unique blend of flavors and a cool, laid-back vibe reminiscent of an L.A. eatery.
As a food reviewer for Foodjoyy, I had the pleasure of experiencing the buzz surrounding this establishment. Customers rave about its sizable portions, like the enormous spring rolls that have become iconic, often bringing diners back specifically for their unbeatable taste. One review by Lydia Venjohn encapsulated this perfectly, stating, “I was really impressed by the food here.” It's hard not to be captivated by the fresh ingredients and bold flavors that Cloud Red masterfully delivers.
The menu offers an eclectic variety, ensuring there’s something for everyone. From the mouthwatering buffalo cauliflower with a delicious blue cheese dip, celebrated for its perfect balance of spice and flavor, to the delightful steak sandwiches that are perfectly cooked to your liking, every dish showcases the kitchen's commitment to quality and precision. Reviewers like Madyun Wilson noted the restaurant’s fantastic service, clean environment, and the unique cocktails that elevate the dining experience even further.
Moreover, Cloud Red embraces a casual yet thoughtful ordering process. While first-timers may find the setup a bit confusing, it's as straightforward as approaching the bar to place your order, as highlighted by many returning patrons. Although they do add a 15% gratuity to carryout orders—a small price for the experience—this ensures that everyone is appreciated for their hard work.
The layout of Cloud Red is equally compelling. With inviting spaces—be it the bustling bar area where you can catch a game or a cozy corner perfect for a quiet meal—there's a vibe for every occasion. Whether you’re celebrating with friends or enjoying a casual dinner, the ambiance resonates well with its patrons. Customers, like Sheri Mazariegos, were thrilled with the proactive service, emphasizing the friendly staff who check in regularly to ensure a delightful dining experience.

“ SO GOOD. I’m really impressed by the food here. I ordered a spring roll which is the biggest one I’ve ever seen, and the Po boy sandwich. I couldn’t eat all this food! But it was so good though I wanted to the flavors were perfect and ingredients were fresh. The ordering process is a little confusing for first timers but once you know what to do it’s fine. Just go to the bar where it says “order here” and order food there. ”
“ Cloud Red is a hidden gem located in Whitefish Bay, offering a cool LA vibe that sets it apart from the local restaurant scene. The owner has curated a fresh and unique menu that's difficult to describe, making it a standout in Milwaukee. With ample parking, fantastic service, and an amazing interior, it offers a top-notch experience. The cocktails are incredible, and the restaurant is spotlessly clean, with various inviting dining areas to choose from. I don't give this much praise often. ”
“ Everything about this place was absolutely awesome! The vibes, the staff, the decor, the food and drink, all phenomenal. The kitchen staff even came out and double checked with me that everything I ordered fit my dietary restrictions! The cabernet, steak sandwich (subs. tofu in for the steak) and loaded potatoes (all pictured) was a great, filling, vegan meal. ”
“ I am visiting a friend in Milwaukee and he took me his favorite hang out and I was blown away. I’ve been in the restaurant business for over thirty years and I completely impressed how Amber and Brin took care of a full house. They rock!! Oh the food. Unbelievable! Had a fresh peach flat bread and a steak sandwich. Wow! Probably the best steak sandwich I’ve ever had. This place is amazing!! ”
“ Go hungry!!! The portions are huge! We had the buffalo cauliflower with blue cheese dressing to dip in - a little bit of a kick, really tasty! We both ordered burgers medium rare - and shout out to the chef that actually made them medium rare and didn’t overcook them:)! The people next to us had the spring rolls - which were HUGE! They actually said they had come back specifically for the spring rolls - always a good indication! Fabulous menu! We’ve been wanting to come as lots of friends have recommended this place. We were there on Derby day, but it was packed! We were able to get a cute table in the corner of the second room, which was fantastic and cozy. There is a fabulous bar - great place to watch sports, hang out with friends. If you want to have a spot a little more quiet, lots of light, pick a table in the second room. Service was quick! Order at the bar when you go in and then they bring to the table. Everyone was really friendly, fast and checked in on us several times to see if we needed anything. Street parking was easy enough. ”
“ I just love this place. I’ve been coming for years and it never gets old. Recently ordered takeout and it’s a whole new experience to see these portions in to-go containers. Do not underestimate the size! We ordered 3 dishes for 3 people and didn’t end up even touching one of them until the next day. Everything was delicious though and I can’t recommend highly enough. ”
“ Absolutely phenomenal. We got the chopped Thai salad and added grilled chicken, as well as got the pulled pork nachos. The flavors of both dishes were complex and balanced, and utter perfection. The portion sizes were impressively generous. We’re already planning our next visit to try more of the menu, and revisit what are already new favorites. ”
“ The food at Cloud Red is exceptional. It's immediately apparent that high-quality ingredients take priority, and the dishes are well conceived while somehow being, if anything, slightly underpriced. The Thai salad (with chicken) and nachos (my favorite of the two) are easily recommended. The restaurant itself is very hands off, which doesn't really bother me. Given that approach, I wish that you didn't have to go up to order food with a bartender, and that instead you could use some sort of self-service option for ordering. It's hardly worth mentioning, though, and overall I can easily recommend this place. ”
