    Sandwich
    Kelli B.

    Great place for lunch! They handle large corporate group orders perfectly, and labeling each meal with everyone's name is a total lifesaver.

    Many selections

    Great selection from salads, sandwiches, pizzas and more. Very clean, fast service and very friendly staff. Great atmosphere!! I got the roast beef special....so good the balsamic with the garlic is what did it for me! Very good!

    Pics are from a prior visit Went yesterday for brunch. Sat in bar section to get service. They were short handed so the bartender finally came over to wait on us after quite a while. The croissant breakfast sandwich was good but the bacon was cooked to nearly dust on one end for some reason. I snapped it off and ate the rest. I asked for crispy but not great hash browns. They were crispy. Check. But also greasy and worse, cold. Not even hardly warm. When she came to check, she asked how things were and I said "Eh" and was about to let her know but she left. So I had to take them home which I explained when I asked someone else for a box (told her they had been served cold but she said nothing). As a note, reheated they were very greasy and not good. The Leanne's special with waffle and eggs and bacon was good. That bacon was cooked right. We also ordered the kids' chicken tenders with fries which were good (but we were overcharged for them which required us to point that out after the check came to get it fixed). Overall, would try here again for breakfast but disappointing as I've been coming here since 2012 when they first opened and had very limited hours and prior to the multiple remodels and expansion next door.

    BLT Wrap w/Fresh Apples
    John F.

    Fresh, fast and really good food. Choice of Full Service or Deli Counter ordering. Food is delivered to your table even if you choose to order at the counter. My BLT Wrap was awesome and I loved the choice of fresh apples vs. Kettle Chips. My Chicken Noodle Soup was also very tasty and the cup was a generous portion. (However it was so good I wish I would have orders a bowl!)

    I stopped in here quickly to pick up breakfast and was wowed by all the locals inside. The place was packed and had a ton of pickup orders. I ordered there and waited, but my order didn't take long at all. The food (breakfast burrito) was fabulous and the coffee was very tasty. Great spot for breakfast and I bet lunch is amazing as well!

    We're rarely in this area, but happened to be over the weekend and my husband noted that Ally's is a great spot. We decided to give it a go for Saturday lunch. He wasn't wrong, it's nice here! Not just your average deli. The restaurant is well-kept, the atmosphere is calm and enjoyable, and the food is quality. Plys, I'm a fan of order-from-the-counter casual spots. They were quick to take our order and equally as fast to bring out the food. I was starving and very excited to tuck into a big sammie, which is just what I got with the Dilled Chicken Salad Sandwich. It had a really great flavor and wasn't too mayo-y like some chicken salads tend to be. Also the rye bread was so squishy and delicious. It seemed fresh baked. My husband really enjoyed his Chicken Capri sandwich as well, which came off the panini menu. There are a few options for sides, like chips and salsa, apple slices, or kettle chips. Our meals were delicious and worth the price. However, we also got the avocado toast for our son, and it was really just sub-par. Something we likely wouldn't pay $10+ again. I would undoubtedly return here to try some of the many, many other options on their menu. Honestly so many delicious sounding dishes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner!

    I stopped here for breakfast on my way out of town to start my morning. The place is in a strip mall with plenty of parking. The restaurant has two sides with the bar area having table service and the cafe having walk up to the counter service so I went to the bar side. The place has a music decor with music memorabilia and instruments on the walls. I would order a Bloody Mary and the village breakfast. The Bloody Mary was average with a cube of cheese, pickle and a bacon strip. The village breakfast is 2 eggs, choice of meat, hash browns and toast. My food came quickly and I noticed that this is one of those places that gives you one piece of toast cut in half so my second egg is useless because I can only make one toast sandwich, when did we move away from 2 pieces of toast that I'm noticing in the last couple years. The eggs were perfect sunny side up. The wheat toast was nicely toasted. The extra crispy hash browns with added onion were delicious. The sausage patties were horrible because they were so bland and had no pork sausage flavor and maybe they were a turkey sausage but not good at all.

    Leanne's Breakfast Special Waffle
    Jerilyn A.

    I usually go to Ally's bistro for the amazing clam chowder but today I decided to try it for breakfast. Any place that has a waffle meal is good in my book! I ordered the Leanne's special and it came out pretty quickly. The food could have been warmer but overall it was a solid breakfast meal for the price. The waffle was fluffy but still had a bit of crispness to it and the bacon was good and cooked well. It looks like the breakfast menu has a bunch more options and they also do lunch and dinner here so I would definitely come back to try more. It's a good casual place to go and grab food.

    Chicken Noodle Soup ???

    Second visit here and an okay experience. I had the half wrap and soup. The wrap was small but was decent. The Chicken Noodle Soup was unfortunately the worst I have ever had, did not even eat it. I'd recommend a new recipe possibly for the restaurant or not recommend this to others. It also would be nice if there were some options for kids with protein like grilled chicken or a burger. I feel as though there is a quite a bit of room for improvement.

    Menu is slightly different from it's sister cafe in Wauwatosa Service is much better in Wauwatosa in my opinion

    BBQ Turkey Panini
    Han J.

    Ally's Bistro is my favorite spot for a quick lunch whenever I'm in the area. My usual order is the BBQ Turkey Panini. The staff is friendly and food comes out fairly quickly. It is a great local staple!

It's a busy place so we had to wait about 10 minutes on a Saturday morning, but I was OK with it. The building itself is pretty good sized. They have a couple of different rooms with lots of tables and booths. They also have some tables outside to wait at, but I'm not sure if they have an actual outdoor patio to eat at. The service was great and everyone was friendly. They all definitely work well as a team. I started out with just a plain black coffee. They also have iced coffees and Frappuccino type coffees. I believe they have juices and can even make some cocktails like mimosas. They did offer me sugar and cream with my coffee, but I just like my coffee black so that's how I ordered it. For my entrée, I ordered the village omelette and added gyro. It comes with spinach, tomatoes, and feta so the gyro meat sounded delightful in it. It also came with a choice of side, and I opted for fresh fruit. And then finally, you can choose between pancakes or toast. I went with plain sourdough toast. Everything was great and super fresh. The omelette was filling and well-made. They have a gyro sandwich and based on that omelette, I would definitely get the sandwich. The meat was tender and flavorful. And the feta gave the perfect little salty tang. I actually want to re-create the omelette that I had there here in Kansas City because it was so so good. The fruit was fresh and was mainly just honeydew and cantaloupe. And the toast was a perfect vehicle for some of the omelette to my mouth. Overall, I loved this brunch spot. If I lived in the area, I would go pretty regularly. If you are up north in Wisconsin stop in and check them out because you will not be disappointed.

Everything was bland and needed lots of salt and pepper to taste like anything. This included the Hollandaise sauce. My omelette was really "fluffy" but tasted like nothing!

Also, the prices were high compared to other places with tastier food.

I'm not a big fan of pancakes, but I really like the big, fluffy pancakes here. I do like French Toast and savory dishes, and this place does them all well, too. The menu is very big, do I can try something new on each visit. Still working my way through breakfast/brunch items, but they have a lunch/sandwich section on their menu, as well. I've really enjoyed their housemade corned beef hash, country fried steak, and hash browns, in particular, but I have no complaints about any dish I've had. They also offer a Mimosa Flight that I plan to order on a future visit, and I get a kick out of tje robot that brings the dishes to your table for the servers to unload. Golden Nest remains on the short list of my preferred brunch spots!
