    Typical low cost diner with daily morning specials under $5. It ain't the Ritz, but its what you'd expect from a nighthawk type diner. Older waitresses who might call you honey or sweety pour generic coffee and keep it coming. Late nights they have more rules for the wasted Bay View drinkers but otherwise not a bad place for greasy spoon classics.

    The Midwest Diner may be one of the most authentic places left in Bay View these days; a slice of the neighborhood's blue collar past in the midst of its rapidly changing present. The Diner is one of those Greek style eateries common found around Milwaukee with a menu the size of a small novel. The places offer everything, from burgers and gyros to spaghetti plates to Mexican entrees like Chimichangas. One of my favorite go-to items is the turkey club sandwich, which comes with a side of fries and the soup of the day. The place offers a lot of a decent food at very reasonable prices, and most dinners include a glass of beer or wine in the price. The servers are friendly and very attentive, and often warn customers when they spot the local parking checker patrol on one of their frequent rounds down KK Avenue. The entertainment value of this alone is worth a trip in! Service is never rushed and they're happy to keep the coffee flowing for as long as you're occupying booth or counter space. The Midwest Diner is a decent spot to grab a weekend breakfast, or some late night hangover food after hitting the local bars, since the place is open 24 hours a day.

    Oh gods, perfect little diner out-of-time. Free beer with every meal, a full line of sandwiches and burgers, video poker and slots... You just have to experience it to believe it. I'll definitely go back. The food was OK, good but not memorable, but there are times when you just need a diner, and this is the place to go.

    I am very disappointed with my experience. I ordered Chicken sheesh kabab and kids meal grilled sandwich and it was mentioned that kids meal comes with drink I never got that on top it was mentioned that entrees come with glass of beer but no beer and no drink for kids meal .I told the lady when I was giving my order that I will drink beer here and my order is to go but I waited for 15 minutes but no body got me my beer and I left with my food it was more shocking when I reached home sheesh kabab was in a big box but there was only five pieces of Chicken and only six tea spoon of rice with little tomatoes and I was expecting my food with pita bread and lot of Chicken and rice as the gyro is like and I went back to them and asked that for $9.95 u have given me this stuff and their reply was our shift have changed so we can't do anything and moreover the lady that took ur order has left so we can't do any thing and as ur order was to go u can't take beer along with u so we did not gave u beer but I was waiting for 15 minutes in the restaurant no body came to ask for beer . I told them if I can't take beer outside I waited here for 15 minutes u should have given me the beer inside the restaurant . By the time my order was getting ready I would have finished my beer. No apologies from anyone. It is the worst experience of my life.sheer waste of time , money . If it would have been possible I would have given them ZERO star .

    I was there for the first and last time after the need to settle a late night craving. I ordered the Midwest Special, which consisted of corned beef hash and 3 eggs. Instead of something special, I received canned corned beef hash and the most rushed sunnyside up eggs I've ever encountered. This 'special' cost me $7 and I would've been happier breaking both my legs before leaving my house so I wouldn't have to endure this meal. Bottom line: Go to George Webb's

    Hubs and I stumbled our way into a booth and were in a "just give us the food" mentality. I decided on a monte cristo since the night was turning into one of bad decisions already. Was it great? No. Did I devour it? Yes. Listen I walked in here needing a vehicle to get ketchup in my mouth (fries) and nobody batted an eye at the hiccups accompanying me. The waitress also listened to my excitement over Manuela the tortoise (Google it) and maybe even wanted to know more and this is important to me. In fact, I've just decided I'm going to start telling more strangers about Manuela and let yelp know how it goes. I just added a star to this review because of my new Manuela inspiration. This diner INSPIRED me guys. Also, baskets of fries.

    I've had worse. My fiancée and I had a craving for what we refer to as crappy diner food. It's all the same everywhere, and it's always the cheapest stuff in the Sysco catalog. That's exactly what we got here. The food was the same as you'd get at any diner in any other city. Really, if you've been to Ma Fischer's on the East Side, this is just a smaller, somewhat dingier version. Pretty much everything--omelettes, burgers, etc--was greasy. For the low price, though, I more-or-less expect it. On the plus side, before we went I was joking about wanting to find a diner that did burgers, breakfast, Mexican, Greek, and Asian. I had to have a laugh when I found all of that on their menu.

    Ok, went here once and asked for the gyro and was told that they were out of gyros. I bought a salad, the waitress harassed me about my choice because I was "a man ordering a salad." Weird. It took forever to get the meal and when I brought it home it was dry, undercooked meat on a pile of rotting lettuce. What the hell? Never again.

    This place doesn't deserve a star at all I was there for 1 hour and 1/2 and still no food we got an appetizer and that's it. It doesn't take an hour 1 and 1/2 make mozzarella sticks. Finally after 2 hours our food came gyro was descent but the clubhouse sandwich, biscuits and gravy and breakfast plate were not good at all. The staff weren't great either. Not worth your time people don't bother to stop by. First and last time dinning there

    Let's get some facts out of the way: This place is open late. All the time late. They serve greasy ass diner food. I've never been here during daylight hours. Unless it was dawn when I left. I don't remember. When I find myself here, it is usually after enjoying several beers and my stomach is demanding a patty melt and some GD cheese fries. In case you are wondering, my stomach sounds like Ving Rhames. I'm not sure if this is because of the aforementioned beverages or my level of hunger. The food here is typical greasy spoon fare. It isn't great, but I'll be damned if my stomach isn't happy to see it at 3 AM. The menu is pretty diverse, but I think I've eaten 2 things. I have never had a server here that wasn't super nice, and they get bonus points still for keeping their composure amid the after bar crowd. To round the whole thing up: Late night grub for your drunk ass served by folks that are way nicer than they need to be considering the state of their clientele.

    So....Midwest Diner. Well, I did receive 2 free beers. Working up in Milwaukee, we had just finished for the night and wanted something to eat. So alot of places to eat around but all of them were packed and required a wait. Saw this place and it was completely dead inside, we also noticed the 2 advertisements: "Free Beer" and "Open 24 Hours". Made our way inside, and immediately should have realized what a mistake we were making. There are about 7 tables set up inside, multiple slot machines set up in the back, and a hallway that connects to a bar that shares the same building. Once again, not realizing my mistake I ordered some apps, and the main course. Cheese Sticks, Hot Wings, and my Porterhouse Steak. The Cheese sticks were the best thing about this place, and the wings were Meh', but I expect that since good hot wings are hard to pull off. The Porterhouse was ordered at Medium-Rare and that was not what I got. I hadn't eaten in almost 24 hours so I didn't attempt to return the "steak" that I received. It was basically a really big dog biscuit, not 1 bit of it was medium, and was as tough as can be. This also came with a Salad, which was not fresh at all, and just to stomach it I had to COAT it in ranch. I ate about 1/4 of my steak and when was asked if I wanted to take a box home I decided to decline that offer, thinking that my Cat's eat better than this. The Waitress was absolutely amazing and very very sweet, but unfortunately that is not enough reason for me to EVER come back to this place. Sorry Midwest Diner, it is time to REVISE that menu of yours. Service: 5/5 (Waitress was very honest, and made every attempt to make our experience better) Food: 1/5 (Not typical Diner Food, I wish I got that. This wasn't fit for animals to eat) Atmosphere: 2/5 (Food in front, slot machines in back, bar through the hallway.) Price: 2/5 (Spent $110.00 for garbage) Wait Staff and Beer was Awesome!

    When I think of this place, all I can invision is the gentleman sitting across from us at a bar stool at the counter. Well folks, I don't know how to put this any other way. The man was not wearing any pants on his bottom. His bare booty was just there, on the stool, with nothing in between. NOTHING! I realize this is unbelievable, but I'm telling you, it's true. I have witnesses! All of us at the table were completely grossed out. And even more grossed out after this fine upstanding citizen removed his bare bottom from said stool and before anyone had a chance to sanitize the stool, a poor defenseless woman sat there! And we all just sat there, having no idea what to do. Um, I'm disgusted. HOWEVER, I tried to not let this terrible view ruin our dining experience. Thank goodness he left before our food arrived. I had a ham and cheese omelet with hashbrowns and a side of corned beef hash. All of it was delicious. Our server was delightful and all in all, had we not met no-pants-mcgee, would have had a wonderful experience.

    I had an omelette, American fries and toast for under $7. It was delicious and the waitress was very nice. Someone who was chain smoking in the kitchen, stood on the lunch counter where people eat, with his shoes on, to change a light bulb. Did they clean the counter after his shoes, that probably stood in front of a urinal, were on the counter? I'll let you decide.

    My husband would kill me if he knew that I was giving the Midwest Diner such a low rating. If it was up to him we'd eat there daily...But, oh well!! He'll just have to write his own review. :) It's your typical diner. Friendly, middle-aged waitresses, cheap food, and tacky decor. I ordered a cheese and onion omelet with cheese hashbrowns and whole wheat toast. The food came out quickly. My order was messed up. There were no onions in my omelet and no cheese on my hashbrowns. I didn't send it back or say anything about it since I was pretty hungry. Although not how I ordered it, the food was very yummy. Ladies, be careful when you use the bathroom..The toilet seat is not attached.

    It's a neighborhood diner. I've been here a couple times recently because it's close. While I wouldn't travel cross town for the food, it's an OK place. The wait staff is friendly and the kitchen is fast. The food we've tried isn't as bad as some other reviewers make it out to be, but the prices are a bit high. I think if you stick with breakfast fare you'll be fine. In fact, their pancakes are really good. Some of the best I've had in MKE. A short stack of blueberry pancakes, an order of hashbrowns, one egg, and some coffee ordered ala carte will run you just under $10 before tip.

    It's your typical neighborhood diner, but it's a cut above most. Very good hash browns and the best diner-class Eggs Benedict you'll find in Milwaukee. Recently awarded a blue ribbon by TMJ4's Dirty Dining for a spotless health inspection by the board of health.

    ETA: @TW: All you have to do is ask the waitresses about the food and they will give you an honest answer. I contemplated ordering the Midwest Special and asked if the hash was any good. She told me straight up it was the stuff out of the can. They're not trying to screw anybody over, it's your own fault for not asking about it before you shelled out $7 for the special... This place is pretty delicious as far as your average local diner goes. It's open 24/7 and has standard breakfast fare available at all times, but if you go between 5 AM and 11 AM on weekdays, you can get some amazingly good deals (pancakes, eggs and bacon/sausage for $3.99). Whoever cooks the eggs at this place always does a phenomenal job... One cool thing they have here is, if you order a dinner entree, you get a free glass of Bud or Bud Light. Not the greatest beer but still a pretty cool gesture. Just FYI, a lot of their lunch and dinner fare is "straight from the can" but if you're starving and feel like getting something super cheap, it will still hit the spot. The service here is always excellent and after going just a few times, the waitresses already know what I want to order without even having to tell them. Pretty rare to find that there days.
