    The food here is phenomenal! Everything cooked to order no problems with the food. The service is stellar, the people are kind, friendly, no problems. The ambience is clean and fresh. Very nice atmosphere to bring your family.

    Basic 2 eggs, hash browns, plus sausage patty breakfast....comes w/ 2 pancakes

    Nice little breakfast joint in Brookfield. Seems very popular with local senior crowd.....kinda place where one could easily become a "regular." Prices seem ok but with recent inflation, it's hard to tell. What is obvious is that portion sizes are large. The hash browns were a bit too crunchy (which is better than not crispy), and the corn beef was a tad too salty ergo, lost 1 star. The pancakes were fluffy and came with a nice mini-pitcher of syrup. Service was friendly and homey and prompt.

    Fish Fry

    Came on a Friday evening for the fish fry. Service was quick and we were in and out under and hour. Had the beer batter cod with potato pancakes, a salad, and apple sauce. They even gave us maple syrup for the potato pancakes. The fish was flakey, tender and breading was delicious. Pancakes were crispy and flavorful. Would definitely come back to try out breakfast too.

    We stopped here on a Saturday at 1045am. They were busy , but still had a few tables available. Service was excellent. After we were seated, a gentleman came over with water and asked if we would like coffee. I had the Greek skillet, it comes with toast or pancakes. I choose the pancakes. I was expecting 2 small thin cakes, but received 2 large , thick pancakes. Served with warm syrup. The Greek skillet came with a side of Tzatziki. My wife had the Veggie skillet with sourdough toast. Everything we had was delicious. I see why they are always busy. Priced was fair as were the portions. I can't wait to go back.

    2 eggs your way (comes with Hash Browns and 2 pancakes)

    Come hungry, and expect leftovers! While the prices are a little high, the service sizes are MASSIVE. We went for brunch around 10:30, and it was pretty quiet. Service was really quick. The restaurant is dated, the tables and decor are definitely older. The food is on par with other mid-tier brunch places in the Milwaukee area.

    prices

    The new menu is ridiculous! Did anyone spellcheck? The font is small, the prices on some foods are listed incorrectly and the spelling is off. And most of the Greek options are gone, for those who come here for that. It's just an old-fashioned greasy spoon now. Sad to see.

    Not bad, but nothing special. Food is a bit higher priced, and quality is in line with something anyone could make. Overall 3 stars.

    We had Sunday breakfast here. We walked in had a very brief wait for a booth, We sat a a booth…read morethat was specifically set up for a table of 3 with ice water . We had a longer wait for service however the waitress did make sure to stop by the table to let us know that she is just finishing up with another table. Since it was my first time I didn't mind though it would have been nice to have coffee cups since flavored creme, butter and half and half was in small bowls. Give me time to read the menu and a few of the other yelp reviews while waiting. My sister ordered poached eggs, Canadian bacon, and pancakes. she enjoyed the eggs, and Canadian bacon. But the pancake was so so. The hash browns were cooked very lightly. Sausage gravy was made with sliced pieces of breakfast sausage links nothing spectacular I would have to say that I have had better from a can. The service is fairly good they could improve by checking on coffee levels more frequently. The water pitcher came around regularly. The busers were clearing tables throughout our meal but it was done loudly.

    I asked Dino from Mr. Dino's at Mayfair what the best Greek Restaurant in town is. He put me on to…read morethis place. I've been here a number of times and always get the combination plate, at least two meals. It consists of braised lamb (or gyro meat if you prefer), Greek potatoes, dolmades, a Greek green bean concoction that was great, pastitso, plus I went with the beef vegetable soup, bread came with and I had some fine vanilla ice cream. Lots of bang for your buck here. They make their own iced tea here as well though some higher end restaurants don't reach this quality (I'm looking at you, Lowlands Grand Cafes and Restaurants. Also Maria was our waitress and she couldn't be better. I'd like to give them an extra half star but they won't allow it.
