Watch Willard Saturday mornings on CBS58 at 9 a.m., and Sundays at 10 a.m. on broadcast channel 41. It's a lottery of good taste as each Tuesday afternoon the phone lines light up as callers scramble to secure one of the hottest tables in town and get a chance to put a knife and fork on a table size steak of which legends are made. Little has changed at Milwaukee's oldest steak house since they opened their doors well over 50 years ago. It's reservations only, and those fortunate to have one will encounter the same active bar where cocktails and conversation have flowed for generations. 1950s steakhouse, plain and simple.
Dark woodwork sets the tone, and the dining room rocks each night.
It's nonstop action from start to finish and the dining room is a constant blur of activity. People come here to eat, overeat and eat some more. That's what brings them in and keeps them coming back for more. Monster-sized and high quality, they serve as a foundation for one of the most unusual dining experiences in the city. At Coerper's, size does indeed count, and it affects performance, too.
