First time here. We were on our way to the Dells and hungry for some breakfast. The place has a nice retro feel to it. The stainless steel diner has been well cared for and updated enough to make it more comfortable for staff and customers. There are some tables out front and two different seating areas inside (it's bigger than it looks). All the cooking is done behind the counter, where you can see it all happening. It can be a bit noisy as the metal spatulas hit the grill, but you can still have a reasonable conversation. It's a busy place, and the servers are efficient, with a no nonsense approach to taking your orders. The menu is large, with lots of traditional favorites (no avocado toast here). There were two pages of breakfast items, and it was a tough decision. We ordered a number of different items: corned beef hash, pancakes, and potato pancakes with eggs and sausage. It did not take very long to get our food. Very good portions, everything was plenty hot, and all flavorful. Everyone was happy with their choices. The corned beef hash was not the kind you get from a can. It was large, fresh pieces. The pork sausages were plump and well seasoned. The poached eggs were perfect. My only complaint: I ordered my potato pancakes extra crispy, but they didn't seem "extra" to me (extra extra crispy next time). The regular pancakes were good, but not fluffy enough to be "excellent". A very nice place for breakfast, and somewhere we would return to.

Really enjoyed our visit to Broadway Diner in Baraboo. The classic diner atmosphere feels cozy and welcoming, and every dish we ordered was genuinely great. The staff was friendly and on top of things. It's a smaller spot, so plan to get there early, especially on busy mornings. A fantastic local diner experience.

What a unique experience in Baraboo Wisconsin. It felt like stepping back in time. This beautiful nostalgic 1950s type diner is fantastic. It is small, but we had great service and a great breakfast. Not to mention the aesthetics. If you're looking for a great little breakfast place that offers a unique experience, you found it here.

Eggs Benedict

Wouldn't return, I really wanted to like it I did, from the outside super cute. Inside cramped and loud. I don't even mind cramped and loud per se but then my Bloody Mary wasn't great. Weak. The mix was like tomato juice nothing to jazz it up. I had the eggs benedict it was just kind of flat, the hollandaise lacked seasoning and flavor just tasted like blah. My husband said the same of his meal. Which I can't even remember what he had it was so forgetful. The homemade bread was the reason I gave one star for the effort. Not good. Won't be back. Oh and the ham was so thin there is no way it could get any thinner.

Driving through Wisconsin going home to Wheaton, Illinois from Eden Prairie, MN, my hubby had me search for a highly rated, yet affordable brunch place along the way. Broadway Diner is a little off the main southbound highway, but when I read the story behind it and some positive reviews, I really wanted to try it out. How cool is it that this is an actual old time, well used diner from the East Coast that was transported to the Midwest and restored to its original beauty! Frank Sinatra era music played pleasantly in the background. Very happy and friendly wait staff wearing black shirts that said "Body by Bacon" greeted and served us. I loved the hollandaise sauce atop the Farmers Market Benedict Scramble I ordered, and that it came with a side of fresh fruit. My husband's Corned Beef Hash was a bit salty for him. Coffee wasn't as robust as we like it, but not bad. All in all, a very pleasant experience.

Chicken w/ Biscuits & Gravy, scrambled eggs

A rather simple diner with great prices. Staff were friendly and the food was basic, but good. It was very busy, so, I'd guess it's popular with locals. You don't come across many like this anymore & it hit the spot, as nobody wanted to cook.

Cinnamon toast pancakes with cream cheese butter!!!

Who would've guessed....a delicious, juicy ribeye steak and eggs at a 50s style diner! But yes! And it was a very good steak. Not one of those thin breakfast steaks but a real ribeye! Hash browns perfectly seasoned, buttery and crispy! And a homemade sourdough toast to top it off!

Got a 16 in with pizza and black olives for four adults. The crust is really quite thick... more so than what I'd call NY style. Not a complaint! We just got so much pizza for the money! Sauce was very tomato-y. Not too much on the pie. A generous amount that stays under the perfectly baked cheese. Sausage was top notch. Will definitely get again, sine we come to DL at least once a year.

But from the moment we sat down, it was all uphill from there. The Italian wedding soup was excellent, rich, flavorful, and clearly homemade. The pizza was decent, nothing extraordinary but solid with plenty of cheese. We also ordered the lasagna, the spicy chicken dish, and spaghetti and meatballs. The standout was the spicy chicken: the "spicy red sauce" turned out to be more of a creamy, spicy blend, and it was fantastic. Everything came out piping hot, which I really appreciated. They also bring out warm rolls, and those were surprisingly tasty, soft, fresh, and perfect for dipping. Overall, I highly recommend this place. Despite the rough first impression, it turned out to be one of the best restaurants in the area.
