Mad Rooster Cafe - Milwaukee

One look at the fruit lets you know immediately that this place is different! I mean, who does pomegranate, blackberries, or mandarins anymore?!?Denver omelet was loaded with ham and veggies, huge, and super filling with multiple flavors in every bite.

First time here. Was very impressed. Would come back. It was mid-morning on a Thursday. They were busy but not packed. Got seated right away, and our server checked in with us. The server was super good. The waters, beverages, and food were all delivered in efficiency and warm smiles. Thanks Abby!We got a Breakfast Burrito and the Home Made Yogurt. Everything was hot, flavorful, and good portions. The yogurt was especially good, with sliced almonds and just the right amount of honey drizzle. Definitely would put this on this list of excellent breakfast places.

I always rave about the brunch here. One of my girlfriends and I were looking for somewhere to eat one morning and we drove past here!The granola pancakes, red potatoes, and mimosas were so delicious. I will say that we also tried the cinnamon crunch French toast and I a huge fan. It was cold, and kinda tough to eat overall so we left that alone. The service was great, as always. The staff is so friendly.

I had the pleasure of dining at Mad Rooster Restaurant for the first time and was impressed by their diverse brunch options. I opted for the homemade Greek yogurt with fresh fruit, which exceeded my expectations. The dish was beautifully presented, featuring a pineapple half topped with yogurt, a variety of berries, and a drizzle of fresh honey, accompanied by homemade granola. The flavors were incredible. My husband's chili omelette was a revelation, with flavors that blew him away. He declared it the best omelette he's ever had. The dish came with a choice of hashbrowns or red potatoes, and he enjoyed the red potatoes immensely. Oscar provided exceptional service, attending to our every need. We can't wait to return to this outstanding restaurant.

You can assume that the inside is farm themed and it is! Very cozy and lots of space. My family and I have been many times. With about 15, 8, and 5 people. Making a reservation is easy and we've always been seated rather quickly. Every waiter and server we've had has always exceeded our expectations! The food tastes great! I love their mimosas! Their potatoes are amazing!!! And I always like how they make their eggs. My most recent order was the stuffed French toast and it was so good, the cream was a Bavarian cream and it complemented the bread and fruits very well. I can't remember if this was a half or full order (sorry) but either one is worth it for me. Prices are similar to most breakfast places nowadays.

WOWOWOWOWOWOWOK SO REAL TALK.I don't live in WI anymore, I moved to NC. And there are a few things I deeply miss and have when I go to visit: one, a massive Bloody Mary. I don't drink anymore so I aimed my brunch pick on a photo of a bloody with a deviled egg.Boy did I choose well.From the moment we walked in until we left: impeccable service. Quick delivery, kind waiter, and friendly but not TOO friendly. All of our food and drinks came quickly, even though the restaurant was busy-ish for a Saturday morning. Vibes were great! Not too loud and just the right amount of buzz.My dad got eggs, pancakes, fruit and chicken sausage: everything was great!I, the foodie, first enjoyed my tangy and zesty Bloody Mary and toppings. Mmmmm spicy and perfect! They make yogurt in house and after a lot of eggs earlier in the week, I wanted fruit too. The Mad Style Yogurt was BOMB: creamy, fresh fruit, DELICIOUS banana bread! And the Mad Reds were excellent: well seasoned and perfectly cooked.My only complaint was that I assumed there wouldn't be a half of jalapeno on the potatoes...and I popped it in my mouth and nearly died. That one is on me, and while I can handle spice, I don't recommend it at 9am.Go forth and go Mad Style!

My husband and I chose to celebrate a small milestone with brunch at Mad Rooster and we were so happy with this decision! It had been years since I had actually been at Mad Rooster, usually opting for takeout instead due to how crowded the restaurant gets and how long the wait times are.The key for us on this Sunday morning was joining the waitlist via Yelp before we even left our house and timing our arrival to coincide with what the waitlist said. Once we got to the restaurant, we still waited about 10 minutes, but it was much better than people who joined the list at the restaurant.Once we were seated, we had swift service. We got water immediately and our waitress checked on us a couple times (but not in a rushing way) to get our orders. I got the seasonal sangria and my husband enjoyed a Peach Bellini. Both were very good and I would easily get both of them again as summery fruity brunch cocktails.For brunch, I am a total savory meal with a sweet side and thank God my husband is willing to go along with this! He got a breakfast burrito with a side of fries, I got the chilaquiles with a side of baby red potatoes, and got a full serving Nutella banana crepes to share between us.The crepes were OUTSTANDING - filled to the brim with Nutella and bananas and a side of whipped cream. They're plenty sweet on their own, but I liked them a lot with some syrup as well which came out warm! My husband liked his burrito, which I didn't try. But the seasoning on the fries he got were very good!My chilaquiles were fantastic - some chips were crispy and some were more loaded with toppings. The flavor was definitely there. The over medium eggs were perfectly cooked with a slightly runny yolk. The baby red potatoes were equally delicious with a little more salt that I added.

Pros: The service and foodCons: I suspect it can get busyDetails: Another Yelp recommendation that was great. We went here on our visit to Milwaukee and on our drive out to Madison. It is really close to the stadium. The food is mexican/american style, at least for breakfast when we went. The space is pretty big, but I can imagine it gets busy. We were most impressed with the service. The food was great, really high quality and not insanely expensive. I can see us making this a typical stop when visiting town. The portions were large. We tried, but none of us were able to completely clear our plates.

Wonderful service. Food is always amazing. The best blueberry crunch pancakes. Love the call ahead so no waiting to get a table. Never have had a bad meal here.

Outstanding service and wait time !!!! The food was excellent and was si delicious and so much food !!!! It was beyond good food and hot and so nice !!!!
