Mazos Hamburgers permanently closed after 90 years in Milwaukee
After 90 years in Milwaukee, Mazos Hamburgers has permanently closed.
The family that owns the south-side restaurant, at 3146 S. 27th St., made the announcement Sunday in a Facebook post.
The post read:
“After 90 years in business and three generations of our family’s service, we have made the difficult decision to close our doors. Due to the health and well-being needs of our family, we are unable to continue.
“We are extremely grateful to each and every one of you for your support throughout the years. It has been the greatest honor and our privilege to have served you!
“From our family to yours, we wish you all the best that life has to offer!”
Nearly 400 comments followed on the post, with sadness, praise and fond memories of the old-school diner, which opened in 1934.
Mazos frequently made lists of Milwaukee’s best burgers. In May, Journal Sentinel restaurant critic Rachel Bernhard praised its bacon cheeseburger:
“If there’s a blueprint for a classic American cheeseburger, they’re working from it at Mazos. … Their regular cheeseburger ($8.75, served with two sides) is a thing of simple beauty: patties made from fresh beef that’s ground daily, pressed in a uniform shape that matches the exact circumference of the glossy, toasted bun that softly crackles when you take a bite.
“You can order it plain, or choose to top with raw or fried onions, the fried version being just lightly caramelized enough to add slippery sweetness to the burger. That’s delicious enough, but I say go for the bacon cheeseburger ($9.95, served with two sides) to add some salty-smoky oomph to each bite.”

Milwaukee Brewers Flamethrower Jacob Misiorowski Has Historic Night Against Yankees – World Baseball Network
The Milwaukee Brewers shut out the New York Yankees in a 6-0 victory on Friday night, and Jacob Misiorowski was dominated at a historic level.
In the first two innings of Friday night’s game, Misiorowski threw eight of the 10 fastest pitches ever by a starting pitcher. Of those eight, seven are now the fastest pitches ever thrown by a starting pitcher, according to Codify Baseball.
Misiorowski’s velocity has been a major topic of discussion ever since he made his debut last season. He lights up the radar gun early in games, but usually sees his velocity drop as the game goes on. However, in the fifth inning, he was able to throw a 103 mph fastball to Ryan McMahon. He also threw a 102.7 mph fastball to Cody Bellinger in the sixth inning.
Misiorowski leads all of baseball in strikeouts, notching his 70th strikeout of the season in the sixth inning of Friday’s game. Misiorowski has a 2.45 ERA on the season and had 11 strikeouts against the Yankees. The 60 fastest pitches thrown by a starting pitcher this season all belong to the Brewers ace.
It was Misiorowski’s first time facing the Yankees, and it was not just fans who were left in awe. Spencer Jones, the Yankees’ No. 6 prospect, made his MLB debut on Friday night and felt happy to just foul a pitch off against the flamethrowing righty.
“I’ve never seen pitches that hard in my life,” Jones said after the game, per MLB.com’s Adam McCalvy. “To foul off a couple is pretty great, so I’ll take that for now.”
Misiorowski’s teammate, Sal Frelick, was also in disbelief when Misiorowski kept touching triple digits late in the game.
“I kept looking up at the velo after every pitch as he got deep,” Frelick said per McCalvy. “I couldn’t believe it.”
Misiorowski picked a great night to showcase his best stuff. CC Sabathia was in the house to be inducted into the Brewers Wall of Honor, and he gave Misiorowski a glowing endorsement before the game.
“I love Misiorowski,” said Sabathia, per McCalvy. “I think he’s going to be a great pitcher.
“Honestly, he reminds me of myself as a young pitcher.”
If Misiorowski can become the type of player Sabathia was, he will be breaking records for years to come. He has played his best in big games so far in his career, but he is still only 24 and getting better with every start.
He credited adrenaline to his sustained velocity on Friday, so it makes sense that he has his best stuff in big games.
