“Went for the first time today after reading a friends experience. Really a nice dinner! Very fresh food. Nice flavors. Extremely pleasant hosts! We will go back for sure!“

“I go here for a networking lunch regularly. I've never had a bad experience or meal. I do not know what they do to the creamed corn but it's magic. There's a balance of flavors I can't replicate. I've literally never had a bad offering there and I've had almost everything. The servers are also spot on. Go there!“

“Had the dill pickle chicken salad sandwich and honey vanilla latte. Everything was delicious. Will be going back!“

“This George Webb is outstanding, probably the best one I’ve ever been to. The people running it treat you like family, and you can feel the pride they put into everything they do. The food is fresh and made with care, a big difference from other Webb’s I’ve been to in recent years.

For me, this place is more than just a restaurant…..it’s personal. My grandmother used to take me to George Webb when I was a kid, and she passed away 10 years ago. Sitting here brought back those memories in a way I didn’t expect. The warm hospitality and quality food reminded me of those special times with her.

This George Webb has restored what I always hoped the brand used to be…a place that feels like home.“

“Wonderful atmosphere and delicious food. The wait staff was very friendly and accommodating. We will definitely be coming back and it was great place to take our grown daughter for her birthday.“

“My partner and I were on an overnight to the Milwaukee area and stopped in here for breakfast. The atmosphere was very pleasant. The restaurant layout was open and airy. We were greeted and seated promptly, and coffee and water appeared before we even had a chance to ask for it. We ordered our meals, and to our surprise our food arrives within minutes, even on a busy weekend morning. The food was delicious, and the server brought us some sort of cinnamon cake that was also amazing.
We don't travel through that area often, but Maxim's is now our go-to spot!“

“I'm obsessed with Camino! I just devoured a ridiculously delicious Beet Salad with Steak Med Rare... Mind blown! We also chomped down on Perogies Stuffed with Kraut and Bacon! Insanely good. And let's not forget the BLT no lettuce but with fresh basil - OMG, it's a game-changer! Service was top-notch, a solid 10! Slay Away Camino! I'm yours -Orlin“

“Hot House is truly in a league of its own. From the moment you walk in, it’s clear that this place isn’t just about the food or the ambiance—it’s about an experience that’s truly elevated by their exceptional hospitality. The staff goes above and beyond in every possible way. I was blown away by how accommodating they were, anticipating my needs before I even had to ask. It’s rare to find a team so in sync, and it speaks volumes about the strong culture they’ve cultivated here. Every interaction, no matter how small, was met with genuine warmth and attentiveness. They’re not just serving customers; they’re creating lasting, meaningful connections. It’s refreshing to see a business so tuned in to the needs of its guests. Clearly, Hot House knows the importance of putting people first, and it shows in every detail. The standard they set for hospitality should be the benchmark for the industry. An absolute must-visit!“

“Liena was an amazing server and gave genuine reviews of our questions regarding multiple menu items. She had an awesome energy from start to finish and was super accommodating to all our request. Would definitely request her as our server on our next visit.“

“Amazing place. Great food. Great service. Delicious custard. So many memories. Am heartbroken hearing it will be closing.“

“Absolutely amazing, all around! Food, service, everything. Shrimp sweet and delicious. Scallops silky soft and smooth, seared great and so tasty! Bacon wrapped asparagus is killer good. Prime rib sandwich is pillow soft, so flavorful and satisfying. Great garlic and herb butter seasoning on everything. I had a nasty respiratory infection a couple months prior, hadn't been able to taste much of anything for over two months... until coming here. I could taste the amazing flavor cooked into all of our items for the first time since getting sick. This was probably about the most satisfying dining experience I've ever had. Love it and can't wait to go back!!!“

“Soy muy rapido ime gusta“

“Here for my daughters birthday! Fabulous service, awesome food, and overall enjoyable experience!“

“steak was seasoned perfectly. service was ok.“

“Cute hidden away lunch spot. Authentic antiques. We tried a variety of sandwiches and beer cheese soup. Jack's Favorite was ours of choice. You have to come here just for the ambience. Support small business and historic properties!“

“They have some of the best food around,. Everytime I go there, it's a service with a smile.“

“great food ..service and fun environment!!!“

“Wow, what a great restaurant! The cozy bar area, great staff, wonderful food. I just moved to the area, and I'm looking very forward to becoming a regular.“

“I only order the "Jalapeno Popper" from Mac's in Brookfield. Over half the time I order it they don't put in any jalapenos or they put in next to none. How hard is it to properly make this dish? It is super hard to add jalapenos to the JALAPENO popper? After the 3rd order it happened I brought it back. The manager stated, I quote, "There are jalapenos all up in there" while pointing to two small pieces in the ENTIRE DISH. Done wasting my time and money with this location that can't make a simple Mac and Cheese. Pathetic.“

“Is by far my favorite breakfast/lunch spot! Friendly staff ,great patrons and lots of delicious food!!!!! If you haven’t been is definitely a must! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“Great food and great service. Mary Margaret was our waitress and she was SUPER“

“We really loved our experience at Highlands Cafe today. We’ve never had a bad experience or food, but today was particularly exceptional as it was the first time we brought our boys (2 years and 11 months). We had promised our 2 year old ice cream with breakfast as where we were originally going to go, they have malts. Much to our surprise they were closed, cue the toddler meltdown 🫠 Highlands cafe to save the day! No wait, they made a “special ice cream drink” right away for our 2 year old (chocolate milk with whip cream and sprinkles) and he could not have been more happy. The food was excellent to boot! And a mimosa and bloody for mom and dad 🥰 We will definitely be back often. Thank you Highlands Cafe for your hospitality, kindness, patience, and grace ❤️🫶“

“Lovely long time diner located in Thurston Woods neighborhood. The Hoppel Poppel is excellent, as are the country fried steak and biscuits and gravy. Polishing off an already big, healthy meal, you can't resist their fresh cinnamon rolls.“

“eat good" feel good with Great Customer Service ... Say what mean" mean what say 👌🏿“

“The chicken was hot and fresh. The only problems that I have is that the chicken doesn't taste the same. One time I ordered and it was more like a cajun seasoning and the next time it was just regular. I prefer the cajun taste. The other problem is with there sides. They don't have a large container and anyone that has seen their small container knows that 2 doesn't equal a large. The small containers aren't even full.“

“We used The Suburban Bourbon / Three Legged Pig for our Wedding on 9/3 at the South Shore Pavilion in MKE and I cannot recommend this place more, 10 out of 10! We ran into a catering glitch 2 months before the big day and found this business- the owner Pete swooped in to save the day! He was extremely responsive, helpful, friendly and FUNNY and helped make it one of the best days ever! Everyone LOVED the BBQ, mac and cheese, CHIPS and late night paninis. The food and service was SPOT ON! They also accommodated our vegetarian and GF friends :-) I will always call this a serendipitous encounter and I am so happy to have found The Suburban Bourban/ Three Legged Pig/ Pete and the whole crew, thank you all!“

“We went there late because low options. We were all glad we did.“

“First time here was last Friday, Had the fish fry, and it was takeout, by the time I got home the food was still hot, juicy, and Outstanding!!! The fish was still so hot, and juicy, and still crispy, Hashbrowns so hot I had to wait to eat them, coleslaw, some of the best I have had in a while, I will be going back there again and again!!! Thank you for the soup samples today, your cheese soup is to die for!!!!!!“

“Great breakfast! Great portions too!“

“Just tried this place today. An all I can say it such a wonderful breakfast. My wife has a gluten allergy. They are very knowledgeable, know what there doing. An make your experience the best it can be. Gluten free French toast with in house made gluten free bread. It was delicious. Made the wife cry happy tears knowing she could feel normal. Thank you Abby made the experience all the more better. Thank you for such a wonderful time.“

“We grabbed a bacon cheeseburger with fries and patty melt with fries along with some Pepsi. I was impressed how well packaged the food and drinks were. The taste was amazing, perfect Well done Zebbs, thank you!“

“Every covers I ever go to in the inner city is very stingy with their toppings on ice cream. Customer service sucks. They always have an attitude if you don’t like your job don’t work here. If you can’t do customer service don’t work customer service with that being said, I definitely would be traveling all the way out here to go to culvers cause I love Culver’s.“

“We ordered for the first time yesterday at Brothers Gyro & Pizza. The Pizza was the best pizza we had ever eaten. Best crust, best sauce, plenty of cheese and toppings. Perfect! Brother's will be a go to for us for pizza and I can't wait to try the gyro. ❤️“

“Great service. Love the food and drinks 🍹“

“love Sluggo's always our go to spot when we can go out!“

“Just had the best breakfast at Ted’s Ice Cream & Restaurant! If you in the area of 62nd & North you have to try it! Excellent Eggs Benedict and huge strawberry covered pancakes! You can see why they have been in business since 1941.“

“Peaceful, healing, nurturing. A massage at Nourish always renews my body and soul! Thank you, Melissa!“

“Been going there since the 80s! Get the chicken dumpling soup!“

“Although I do always have a long wait. And they always forget my side of kitchen mayo. Every single time even though it’s on the ticket. Everyone is generally pretty nice and apologetic about any wait times“

“Goddess never disappoints! With a new baby I just haven’t been able to frequent as much as I’d like to, but WOW, today they reminded me how subpar my homemade coffee is ? thank you for a lovely dose of self care and relaxation and for remembering me even with the bags under my eyes. You guys are the best! Ezra will be raised a Goddess lover.“

“Celebrated my daughter’s 40th birthday at Double D’s. The staff were amazing. They checked in multiple times during the event, helped with planning the food and even assisted with the surprise!“

“Will definitely come back again and again“

“I’ve visited the Brookfield location multiple times, and while I enjoy it, I wanted to explore a closer restaurant to home.Over the weekend, I had the pleasure of dining at this restaurant and was served by Yeanna. She was incredibly friendly and spot on, ensuring that we were taken care of without us having to ask for anything. I highly recommend this restaurant and will definitely be returning!“
