    I've been coming here for years. Friday night, I wanted fish fry, my wife wanted pie ! There is only one place to go for pie, Diner 45. I got my fish, wife ordered a club. Took our pie and ice-cream home. Best fish fry I've had in a long time. Usually, only come for breakfast or pie. Now going to come for fish!!

    This is super close and convenient to the strawberry farm! Great place to stop for breakfast afterwords. The decor is detailed and so much fun. Transports you right back to the "diner days" the music was fun too. We shared breakfast which was ample and delicious. Our server was a sweetheart. Just a nice experience definitely recommend

    Yummy cream of chicken soup.

    We visited friends while on our way to Kenosha and decided to meet up at Bristol 45. It's a cute local spot with a 50s vibe. It's a popular destination for bikers and the parking lot was packed when we arrived. We checked in with the hostess and we didn't wait long for a table. We were seated within minutes. Note they won't seat you until everyone in your party has arrived. They have typical diner offerings and what we ordered was very good. Ben ordered country fried steak and I got a Philly cheesesteak wrap. Both our dishes were good and I liked my cream of chicken soup side too. Our waitress was super friendly, and we had a nice time here. Pricing is decent with many meals priced under $12.00.

    Great little diner. Servers are professional and fast. I enjoy all the soups but the pancakes are the best.

    This place is an absolute gem and worth burning a little gas to get to. The food was outstanding…read moreand the staff somehow managed to be both wildly efficient and genuinely warm, like they actually enjoy being there. I ordered the half garbage plate with sausage and bacon. Pro tip: ask the difference between the half and the whole before you commit. The half comes with three eggs. The whole comes with five. Five. I chose wisely. Oh and don't forget the homemade bread smothered in butter! It's clearly a neighborhood staple. People were greeting each other by name, swapping stories across tables, and operating like they've been meeting there every Saturday since 1974. Thankfully, they extend that same friendliness to random out-of-towners who just wandered in hungry. The vibe is energetic and communal, the kind of place where conversations overlap and nobody seems to mind. It has a modern, eclectic feel, but there's also a subtle time-machine quality to it. Like you stepped into the 1960s, just with better coffee and fewer ashtrays. Perfect blend of nostalgic and now.

    This place is super cute because it was an old train car made into a diner. There is so much eye…read morecandy around with funny signs. If you're a snobby person or someone with tons of food allergies don't come here. They are irrelevant in a very good way. I would stick to the basics here. My friend got the cheeseburger with fries and it was perfect. They have fresh meat, no frozen patties. I got the half order of biscuits and gravy with 2 eggs and it was perfect diner style food. The portions are huge so a half order was way more than enough. My friend had the roast beef omelette and I wouldn't recommend it because the beef was in chunks and was full of gristle. However, everything else was terrific. I didn't have the garbage plate because the portion was huge but it's on my list for next time. Maybe I'll split it with someone because you need to come hungry. Prices are very reasonable but it's cash only.

    HIGHLY RECOMMEND Yesterday I lunched with clients at The…read moreVegas Café in Antioch; it had been some time since my previous visit. We arrived just as the luncheon hour was in full swing; however, the waitstaff seated us after only a few minutes and we were shown to a booth in the main dining room. The atmosphere is very lively and chatty; the restaurant appeared to be quite full but there was a wonderful 'warmth' about the place and the cooking smelled terrific. Our waitress brought menus immediately and took our drink orders; she was polite, courteous, and efficient. It was very clear our waitress was very busy; HOWEVER this did not in any way diminish her service and/or her attention. SHE WAS TERRIFIC. Our orders arrived VERY quickly and were hot and fresh; I ordered a chorizo skillet and it was delicious. The rye toast was loaded with butter and they brought freshly portioned fruit jelly for us, and not those horrible pr-packaged plastic globs. The waitress kept my coffee filled and my clients' drinks filled as well; she took very good care of us and never once made us feel rushed. I thoroughly enjoyed my luncheon at The Vegas Café and will definitely plan to return, very soon! HIGHLY RECOMMEND

    Food is good. My favorite is chicken cream rice soup…read more I love their coffee. Service is always good. I was disappointed i ordered sirloin steak it was hard & not much seasoning. Even the knife can't cut it. I didn't let them know about the situation so, I ending up just eating my toast & eggs for meal. Ambiance is good. Try to get there early they are busy in the morning & weekends.
