Going out to eat is great, you go somewhere and get served food of your choice with no preparation or clean up involved. The only downfall is that comes with a price. That price is usually high enough that many people limit their restaurant trips to once or twice a week at most.
Even though this is true if you’re smart about it you can eat out a few times a week without going broke. I’ve gone ahead and compiled some of my favorite deals for every week day.

Sushi Mondays are officially a thing. Here are two of the best deals in town for sushi on Garfield's least favorite day of the week.
Screaming Tuna
Located in the Historic Third Ward, this Asian bistro has some of the best sushi in town. Monday night is a great time to go as sushi & hot plates are half-off. Depending on your appetite you can expect to leave with a bill of around $25.
Rice N Roll Bistro
A relative newcomer to the restaurant scene, Rice N Roll Bistro opened across the street from Comet Cafe on Farwell not too long ago. In one of the best deals in town, Rice N Roll offers half-off rolls during "happy hour" on Mondays and Tuesdays from 4:30pm-5:30pm.

Tuesday
Bel Air Cantina
Okay, so this one is pretty obvious.
To some people it’s a ritual that’s closer to religion than simply a meal, and no one in Milwaukee does Taco Tuesday better than Bel-Air. With five locations in the Milwaukee area, there are plenty of chances to get this great deal. The best part about this deal is that if you miss Taco Tuesday you can come back Thursday for the exact same deal.
Wednesday
Sobelman’s
Known mainly for their burgers, Sobelman’s may be a surprising choice as a destination for chicken wings, but every Wednesday night the restaurant becomes full of people looking to take advantage of the wing basket deal--$6.50 for wings and fries. Wings and beer on a Wednesday can be just that extra push you need to get through the rest of the work week.

Karma
If you’re looking for a hearty meal for a great price on a Thursday look no further than Karma Bar & Grill. For $6.50 you can get a burger with fries. You can also put your trivia skills to the test while you eat since Thursday is also trivia night at Karma.
Friday
Steny’s
Milwaukee has no shortage of fish fries to choose from on Friday’s (Saz's, Serb Hall, Lakefront Brewery.) One of the best fish fries around is at Steny’s, located on 2nd Street. A hefty serving of cod, walleye and perch are all offered with your choice of a potato side.
