Dick's Pizza & Pleasure, the newest addition to Milwaukee Street, opens this week at 730 N. Milwaukee St.
The three-level restaurant and bar is hitting the ground running with a grand opening party this Saturday, May 7, from 5 p.m. to close featuring music from DJ Rick Rude.
The pizza restaurant occupies the first level of the space. It features a simple menu, specializing in traditional coal-fired pizza, time-honored methods of dough and sausage production and ham curing, plus the use of local produce.
The nightlife crowd will have plenty of room for entertainment in the second- and third-level "pleasure" floors, which boast LED lighting, anime décor and a DJ booth positioned between two full bars. The second-floor VIP section is decked out with plasma TVs, and additional VIP seating on the third level also provides access to another full bar and a one-of-a-kind shot bar.
Dick's Pizza & Pleasure will cater to the lunch and dinner crowd in addition to late nights, and take-out will also be available.
Contrary to her natural state of being, Renee Lorenz is a total optimist when it comes to Milwaukee. Since beginning her career with OnMilwaukee.com, her occasional forays into the awesomeness that is the Brew City have turned into an overwhelming desire to discover anything and everything that's new, fun or just ... "different."
Expect her random musings to cover both the new and "new-to-her" aspects of Miltown goings-on, in addition to periodically straying completely off-topic, which usually manifests itself in the form of an obscure movie reference.
