The New Uptown Cafe

I got their French toast breakfast. Oh my God the best French toast I ever had very flavorful they serve a lot. Hashbrowns are really delicious and their coffee is so good. They serve big portions on everything.

One of the best breakfasts I've had in the Twin Cities. It's a hike to get to with all the construction on West Lake Street.But it's worth the hike! I walked in around 7:30 AM and I was the first customer of the day.I was greeted with a smile by MAI my server. I asked her what her favorite breakfast meal was at The New Uptown Cafe' and was encouraged to go with the Spicy Cajun Benedict. This was a good referral,said" my belly".The house made andouille sausage was perfect.The hashbrowns were also made in house and the best hash browns I've had besides my own homemade browns.As you can see, there was also a lot of food.I was filled up for the day. The poached eggs, and Hollandaise sauce blended together and made harmony in my mouth.The freshly squeezed orange juice was the cherry on top of the entire meal.The bar seating was cozy and the restaurant was clean.I liked the booth area.At the front of the restaurant is window seating,however construction out on the streets makes it not interesting! I will definitely be back to try more of the menu items as soon as construction dies down. Thank you MAI for the good service. I'll be back!

Warmly greeted on arrival and very attentive staff. Enjoyed the Corned Beef Hash. I really liked how they fold the hash browns into the corned beef instead of having it on the side. A side of sourdough toast and coffee. Will be here once a month when I have to stay in the neighborhood all day. I thought there might be a wait when I arrived, but I was seated immediately and had my choice of tables or booths.

This used to be the Uptown Apple Store location. Then after a bunch of businesses left the area, I noticed this location for the Uptown Diner open up. Breakfast food is my favorite and the Uptown Diner definitely did the job. It was a brisk morning after I got my nails done and I strolled in here for a fix. The cornedbeef hash was HUGE. The Traditional corned beef was served with our famous house made hash browns and two farm fresh scrambeled eggs with cheddar cheese, along with bakery fresh toast. I was in shock at the portion size but was also so grategul. I can always appreciate generous portions.The booths are great and cozy, it created a great sense of coziness and privacy.

Misleading posted signage says open to 11, but they aren't actually, not in the sense this normally means for a sit-down restaurant. While I'm familiar with restaurants warning people who come in at 10-15 before closing that they've stopped serving or that they'll have to leave by 11, it's infuriating to find that a restaurant you've chosen *specifically because* it was recommended as a late-night option "open till 11" instead tells people coming in as much as 30 minutes ahead (after having driven across town) they can only order "to go." Not helpful, considering the whole reason we'd gone was to have a quick sit-down dinner *while looking up where TO GO* for the night before continuing our road trip. Online & posted signage would be more helpful with a asterisk or other disclaimer.

The indistinct yet loud sound system was piping some pretty terrible tunes and the menu was too big. We almost left to try another place. Glad we didn't! Our server was a real sweetheart and immediately started giving excellent service and help with recommendations. There were dietary needs at the table and this was taken very seriously by both the server and others present. Coffee quality was somewhere between typical greasy spoon mud and coffee shop. Passable. Now, all I can say about the food arriving is that all doubts flew out the window! While not a genuine Cubano as it wasn't heat-pressed, this thing was loaded. Pulled pork, nice slab of Swiss cheese, pickles, bakery bun, I'm forgetting like 3 things but trust me. Worth coming back for! so was everything (but the coffee really). Perfect French toast and the staff was even sweeter! Can't wait to return!!!

The New Uptown Cafe is a great place to when you're craving a classic breakfast! Their hashbrowns are perfectly buttery and crispy and they have fun pancake flavors to try (I recommend the chocolate chip cookie dough pancakes). The service is always helpful and efficient. Definitely give them a try if you need a good, hearty breakfast!

A stinker. The catfish was way too salty. The eggs tasted like they were fried in week-old grease and the "fresh baked " bread tasted like it came out of a 2 day old plastic supermarket bag.Wish I'd returned it.

Food was good. 7.5% hidden charge. I'm not sure that is legal. Be careful. Thank you.

The meat lovers omelette and Waffles fries is the best combo. This establishment puts Perkins to shame. The ambience and service is amazing definitely recommend this place to anyone who enjoys quality food.
