I stopped by for a little snack. I had the loaded breakfast potatoes (no bacon) with a side of tzatziki. Sooo good! The breakfast potatoes here are my favorite. I also had a side of grits with cheese. They are very creamy and also really good. The service was amazing and I got my food very quick. Definitely a great place to check out. read more

Keke's Breakfast Cafe - American Near Me - University Park, Florida

Had brunch here on Saturday afternoon. Felicia provided us with great service. I ordered the western omlette and my wife ordered the eggs benedict and asked Felicia to have the eggs medium. She said that is the way they are cooked. The eggs benedict were undercooked and she sent them back. It was quite a while when she got them back and now they were overcooked. My omelette was very thin like it was pressed down with an iron. The potatoes were incredibly tasty and the best part of our brunch. We will not be going back. read more

Great food, great service. Prices were very reasonable and everything was hot when delivered to the table.

We went in today with my elderly mother that can not eat large portions. She wanted a half of a waffle and they would not accomodate her. We even had the manager come out and they refused. They do not offer a senior menu and would not let her order off of the children's menu. So basically they wanted her to pay full price for something that she was going to eat half of, since a waffle isn't any good reheated it would have just been a waste. Very disappointing that they don't value customer service at KEKEs read more

Very poor atmosphere and the food was very average for Sarasota. Way too many other great places to go. First and last visit.

Restaurant was large and spacious inside, but a little chilly. We decided to share the cheeseburger (sans bacon) with a side of onion rings. The burger was just okay as it lacked much in the way of flavor. We appreciated that the onion rings were not greasy despite being merely warm. All in all, I would eat here again. read more

Food was good and me and my sister enjoyed everything, except for the tomatoes. The tomatoes were translucent and pale and did not taste good. Everything else was fine !! The service was fast enough and the waiters were friendly. The ambiance was nice. read more

Two of us for brunch at 11:00 on a Wednesday. Restaurant was not crowded, we were seated in a large booth right away! We both ordered the chicken fajita omelet and it was a winner. The salsa on the top made it take even better. Service was outstanding! Our waitress was solicitous and balanced. We were able to visit and enjoy brunch.. This changed my opinion of Keke's after a not so wonderful visit to a sister restaurant last year! read more

Great service. Good food. Clean and friendly. Will return, but it is a drive. It is good to recognize the people working this location.

Felicia was a great server the door. We felt welcome. The food was back our first visit here and everything was fantastic. I was here strictly for the mimosas, but the French toast and fruit was excellent. We surely come back. read more

Keke's Breakfast Cafe - Raspberry French toast. The side of over easy eggs and bacon. Delicious! - American Near Me - University Park, Florida

Arrived earlier than my friend so I was able to add my name to the Sunday morning wait list. The 20 minutes passed quickly and the table was ready by the time she arrived. Our very friendly server was efficient and didn't blink twice from my order of only 2 egg whites with toast. My friend's over easy eggs were cooked perfectly which is an art form. They allowed us to visit and catch up together which was most appreciated. The wait seemed to be shorter by the time we left just after 12pm. Obviously, the menu offers many more options if you prefer pancakes, omelettes, sandwiches, etc. read more

Love this place, food and atmosphere is great. Only wish their coffee was stronger, kind of water sorry. Change that and I'd be here every day! read more

First stop when we fly down from SI is here. The breakfast is incredible. The staff and service are spectacular. Always love the welcome from the owner. read more

Keke's is by far one of my favorite go to breakfast/ lunch restaurants when back home. The amount of food you receive for the price is insane. You should NEVER leave this establishment hungry so be sure to come with your appetite! Keke's is super family friendly and great for breakfast with the family or just because lunch. The menu has variety of options from waffles to pancakes to omelettes. And lunch has a wide variety of sandwiches. But regardless of what you may chose from their vast menu you will NOT be disappointed. I had the French toast topped with the fresh fruit **Yessss that's a regular order of french toast** GREAT french toast using a delicious bread. This is the true definition of less is more. They do have stuffed French toast if that's your thing. The eggs were cooked to the perfection and the potatoes were crispy and flavorful! The staff is always super pleasant. Always super curtesy! I never had an experience here that was good. The owner might have some stock in Publix or chick-fil-a. LOL! Service is usually that good. Definitely in the top 5 for breakfast spot when it comes to service. Did I mention that it's a great price point? With majority of restaurants rising prices significantly over the past few year's Keke's has been able to maintain a reasonable range. There's more than enough parking. So just pick a spot. read more

Keke's Breakfast Cafe - 3 Meat Omelette with Bagel - American Near Me - University Park, Florida

Consistency is key and this place has it! Food was great - as usual. Our server, Victoria G, did a fantastic job - friendly and positive- she made sure that we were taken care of throughout the meal. We waited for a little bit (no more than 12 minutes on this busy Sunday) and totally worth it. Seriously, check it out! Ambiance is very relaxed, volume is well managed. read more

We always look for a good breakfast location and they did not disappointed. Portions were more than enough and very good. They also ask if you would like a coffee to go, if you ordered coffee with your meal. Excellent business strategy! read more

A comfortable visit We needed a place where we could kill an hour and a half, and I'm always interested in eating. That criteria brought us to Keke's. The wonderful staff helped us get settled in. I ended up ordering what I had reviewed years ago, their Hawaiian Omelette, made with ham and cheese with some pineapple. I do like a tropical twist. Because we were not in any hurry, I didn't even bother timing how long it took to get the food, but it wasn't long. The coffee kept flowing as we slowly ate, and my omelette was excellent. It came with home fries, lightly seasoned thin slices of potatoes. I added some ketchup and salt, and I was all set. Our server didn't rush us at all while we talked. The time seemed to pass quickly, Keke's was a comfortable place for us to get caught up. Keke's is located in the shopping center at the NE corner University and Honore. There is parking close by. It's a good place. read more

Stopped here on the way to Sarasota airport. They definitely run an efficient operation! You put your name in (because they're usually busy!) and they will not seat you if your entire party isn't present. I'm good with that lol. Our server was bubbly and attentive. Our food came out pretty quickly and was very good! I'd definitely stop here again. read more

Very happy with this place! Lots of food to choose from, the staff are friendly and happy to exchange food items for other things to accommodate dietary needs, and the food is yummy with big portions! My only complaint is that the staff don't check in a lot, so if you need something, you might have to wait a while. read more

Keke's Breakfast Cafe - Banana caramel pecan pancakes. YUM! - American Near Me - University Park, Florida

We come here once a week for breakfast. The staff is wonderful. Very friendly and attentive. They are always willing to customize a menu item. Their breakfast items do not disappoint. The pancakes are light and fluffy with lots of add-ins/ toppings to choose from. Also a fan of their omelets and potatoes. Our extended family of 9 was in town over the weekend. They accommodated all of our eating idiosyncrasies, and did so with a smile. So much so, that we came back 4 days in a row! read more

it was my first time eating here and it was amazing! I ordered the eggs Benedict and some bacon and it was extremely delicious. My service was excellent! Ariana took my order and was extremely nice, attentive, and fun. I also like how the ambiance of the place is really chill and welcoming which feels really nice. read more

Excellent Breakfast Experience. Started with Great service and Great Food. Keke's has a pretty expansive menu - Waffles, Pancakes, French Toast, Omelettes, Eggs and Eggs Benedict lots of variety to chose from. One of the best Eggs Benedict I've had. The eggs were poached perfectly and the Hollandaise sauce was very tasty. My wife ordered the BLT which was excellent as well. If you are looking for a solid breakfast place, give Keke's a try read more

Keke's Breakfast Cafe was delicious. Our waitress was so personable and good with my parents. I was very impressed with her. The service was spot on. Everything was so good, but their pancakes are the best. Look forward to going there again when we are back in town. read more

Not terrible, but don't expect to be blown away. Summary: Keke's Breakfast Cafe is fine if you need something to eat that's a step up from the McDonald's breakfast menu, but don't expect to be blown away. The quality of the food is average at best and the staff aren't the most attentive. Prices are about what you'd expect, but don't expect free refills on some drinks, such as orange juice, and watch out for what will cost you some extra Do Re Mi to substitute! All in all, this restaurant has the potential to be pretty good, but they need to revise certain aspects of their restaurant before I would ever recommend it. Would I Recommend This Restaurant? No The Food: The first disappoint came when I discovered they don't offer orange juice without pulp. I'm not a diva, but I don't enjoy non liquid things in my drink. I ordered the Cheese Steak Omelet, which was severely under seasoned. I'm not typically a person who adds salt or pepper to their food, but in this case, I had to add it to my omelet. The potatoes were cooked perfectly and were tasty on their own. The sausage links that I substituted my toast for was something you'd find in the frozen section at the grocery store and wasn't worth substituting. Service and Staff: I went on a weekday morning and was seated immediately without having to wait. Our waitress was okay, but she never came back to refill our drinks and she failed to mention that the sausage that I substituted for my toast was a dollar up-charge. One dollar may not be a big deal, but it still didn't help make the experience better. The menu is very lengthy and takes a hot minute to read through, but you'll eventually find something that peaks your interest. The restaurant was clean and felt nice and spacious. Final Thoughts: Keke's is an American Breakfast Cafe that has potential, but they have some work to do. I would be willing to try it again in the future to give them another try, but as it stands, I can not, in good conscious, recommend this restaurant. Stay fresh Mother Fooders! read more

Eat here all the time with my parents. They love it and since I have been staying with them for a month, I have become a fan. Always good food and service. Even had Uber eats once and was still very good. High praise to the owners and staff for their attention to the food and customer service. read more

Tldr: a bit expensive.missing items on pickup..scrambler bowl different..an omelet in a bowl.. I usually pick up , only a few times per year, and many times something is missing.. this time even though I thought i checked everything something was still missing and I had to go back and ask for it. I probably won't be going back anymore.. it's a bit expensive . The item i usually order has changed . I order the scrambler bowl. They used to chop everything including meat and mix in cheese etc and you actually got a bowl with the items scrambled up and tasty. Now they give you a two egg omelet with cheese on top and meat on the side in a bowl..just get rid of rmthe scrambler bowl and we can order the omelet...also the title reads that the scrambler is over potatoes but the potatoes are optional . You can choose the potatoes or meat.. only one.. if you choose potatoes/home fries you can add meat for $6+ , but if you choose meat you can't add /pay for home fries with this "bowl". Yes you can order them as a separate side order for$6+.. just include the potatoes and let me add a half portion of meat for a little extra.. when you choose meat option in scrambler bowl you get a half portion which is fine.. don't make me choose the potato/home fries option and then pay for a whole portion of meat with the bowl. Rambling :).. read more

This place was busy so they must be doing something right however, in my opinion, the food was mediocre for the price and the service was very inconsistent. I typically order eggs Benedict anytime I try a new restaurant that I've never been a few before because if they can get that typically they're pretty good. Well not horrible. English muffin was barely toasted so it was even difficult to cut. My drink ran out and was never refilled or checked on for 15 minutes. for a place. This busy with lots of help would think they would pay a little more attention to their guests. three other guests near me, laid money on the table and walked out. read more

The service was great & the food was delicious. Had a pancake with fruit & side of bacon.

Food is umm umm good ! Kekes is our go to breakfast joint. I wish there hours of operation was extended to 5pm! Wishful thinking. I appreciate the customer service here. Thank you for delightful food and service ! read more

service was amazing but manager Savannah would not come out of the kitchen to speak with me regarding the morale of her staff. If you don't have good leadership what do you expect from your employees. I have been coming to this Kekes for a year or so and the staff has changed tremendously. The turnover rate is ridiculous. Savannah had my server in tears because she was attempting to get another tables meal correct. This is unacceptable as a leader. Again, my server was amazing and very knowledgeable about the menu and went above and beyond for us. How about we empower our staff instead of being mean and degrading. This is bullying behavior and will be reported to corporate. read more

Good was literally amazing! And great customer service everrrr! Everyone was literally so nice and kind!!

This place is outstanding ! It has quickly become my 2nd favorite breakfast place in the SRQ / Bradenton area and is almost neck n neck with Toasted Mango (if only Keke's offered a crab & shrimp omelette). The 2 things that make Keke's so great are their willingness to make anything on the menu to your liking and how everything always comes out hot. Today I had a craving for a banana and chocolate chip waffle which isn't on the menu. The cheerful waitress explained that I could get the waffle with anything they had in the kitchen. The waffle was soft (never over done) with a huge ring of whipped cream around the border and what appeared to be a whole sliced banana across the top. I've had a number of things here and have been extremely happy with everything except the tuna melt. I mentioned this to the waitress and she explained that their tuna melt is made dry which explained it. Please note that on popular breakfast mornings (especially Sundays) there can be a wait for seating. Give Keke's a try. I am sure you will Love it. read more

Chocolate Chip pancakes where delicious. Fruit was fresh. Service was fast. Family friendly.

This is a nice breakfast spot. The décor is modern and attractive. We were greeted immediately and seated. Our server showed up shortly after that and took drink orders. Came right back with them and took food orders. The food wait was about average for this type of restaurant. They had a good crowd going but didn't seem overly "busy". The food was decently good. No complaints. Nothing outstanding though either. Just decent good food. The "breakfast salad" was kind of oddly funny but the wife liked it. We'll most likely go back at a future date and try their lunch offerings. read more

I recently Door Dashed a build your own omelet meal and a fresh fruit bowl from this location. Their potatoes were on point, and the omelet was perfect. The vegetables were perfectly cooked, flavorful, and fresh...and the cheese was melted perfection. They didn't skimp on ingredients, and the food was both visually delightful as well as tasty. The fresh fruit made for an awesome pick-me-up snack for later. I'll definitely order from there again, maybe go there and sit down for my meal next time. read more
