Uptown Restaurant

How did I never hear about this place?!!!!! I work out at Planet Fitness in Kenosha and happened to just want breakfast that wasn’t McDonald’s and google maps took me here. Let me start by saying the parking is a little tricky but when your restaurant is on basically the busiest street in Kenosha it’s expected.
I walked in and was immediately welcomed by the hostess/server, Mable.
She could tell it was my first time walking into there and she was so kind and helpful and surprisingly energetic and friendly for it being in the morning. I got the cheese omelette and the full biscuits and gravy.
I ordered too much but honestly for the low price I thought it would be small portions.
See photos below- that is a ton of sausage gravy and I love that.
For $15 I had enough to feed two people! What a great deal.
And then I find out they also make Mexican food there in addition to awesome breakfast! This is gonna be my new favorite spot as I love Mexican food and I love breakfast! And the service is amazing.
Mable knew her guests by name and she was able to tell me the story of how they’ve been in Kenosha for over 30 years? I’ve been in Kenosha for just about 25 years and I never seen or heard of this place.
But I already told my mother about it and I’m gonna bring my kids here when they visit.
Such a warm and welcoming environment.
I’m really surprised they weren’t busier but it’s Tuesday- ooh by the way they have Tuesday Taco specials.
I can’t say enough about the breakfast I’m currently enjoying and I can’t wait to try more of their food.
At these prices I could definitely make this a weekly destination, maybe even twice a week? We’ll see. Anyone reading this give them a shot.
It will totally be worth it.
They’re a little tricky to get to, your best bet is to take Pershing to 41st Ave to avoid the 75th st and 39th Ave nightmare.
But it’s totally worth the trip.
This was definitely a happy accident that I found this place: great food, great service, and close to home! Perfect combo.
I can’t say enough that everyone should try this place!

Can't say anything about the service or atmosphere because I ordered to go.
However just the quality of food that I got was terrible.
The country fried steak was almost inedible.
Like it was either overcooked or something because eating it tasted gritty and unappetizing.
Which sucks because it's like I wasted my money to buy something to make sure I'm full to save time cooking from home and I don't even want to finish my meal.
Hashbrowns were pretty undercooked.
I'm pretty sure they didn't even use meat in the steak and it's just breading 😭😭😭😭 DO NOT RECCOMEND.

I ordered breakfast to go they got my order wrong and rather than offer a solution to replace it, they made excuses on the differences in sauces.
I am Hispanic .
Just because someone doesn’t know Spanish, well doesn’t mean that they don’t know how to cook Mexican dishes, and you assumed I didn’t know the difference on how the sauces should be….shame on you the discrimination was real.
I have been supporting you since before you moved into the current location .
No more.
