Il Ponte Brings New Italian Vibes to Milwaukee | Milwaukee News

Get ready to cross a culinary bridge: Il Ponte, the new Italian spot from Lupi & Iris’ team, opens September 15th in Northwestern Mutual’s North Building. Think New York-style classics, housemade pasta, and red sauces—simple, bold, and delicious. With seating for 150+, breakfast, and grab-and-go options, it’s designed for casual, everyday dining without the noise. The name? A nod to the skywalk—and the idea that food brings people together. Led by Chef Angel Otero (from Lupi & Iris) and pastry pro Courtney Beyer, with GM Samantha Lyons, this is Adam Siegel’s latest Milwaukee culinary leap. It’s not just another restaurant—it’s part of a bigger campus transformation, and Milwaukee’s food scene just got a major upgrade.
