It has been a bit since I have been to Chefo's. The last time I was here was during the Great Egg Shortage. At this time, they got a bit pricy. However, things have calmed down significantly and the prices are back to normal. Today I had the Mexican Skillet. I have been having an issue with jalapenos, and this had some in it. Let's just say I devoured this breakfast. The American fries were perfectly Crunchy on the outside. I had mine with bacon instead of chorizo, which was perfect for me. The cheese was melty and the eggs were fluffy. A perfect combination all the way around. Coffee was also hot and our server was very nice. read more

Great little spot!! Was in town visiting family and stumbled upon this place on Uber eats. Instead of ordering I decided to go dine in! So glad we did! Our server seated us immediately after greeting us at the door! We placed our drink orders and took a few mins to look at the menu!! I went with the Mexican omelette, so good! My only feedback would be to chop on the jalapeños better. Eating whole slices was a bit awkward!! My mom got the huevos rancheros, another hit!! Highly suggest you order your hashbrowns extra crisply!! So good!! We did share their stuffed French toast! So yummy!! read more

Let me start by saying this is a 3.5 star review. I'll keep hammering Yelp to allow reviewers to give half star for more accurate reviews. My friend and I decided to give this restaurant a try as we had never been there. It is a standard, local restaurant with no bells or whistles. We found a menu brimming with plenty of choices, a casual atmosphere and friendly service. I went with the Mexican omelette. It was large, prepared nicely but lacked flavor. I ended up adding salt and salsa, which I always try to avoid. The hash browns and pancakes were good. My dining partner had the thin french toast. He thought it was good. My coffee cup never went empty during our visit. The atmosphere was very casual with several groups of older men having what appeared to be their regular coffee club. The price of breakfast was reasonable and the portion size was generous. We will certainly consider a return trip, to try something else on their menu. read more

fairly low quality. Probably cheap ingredients but who knows what makes a bad pancake or a poorly cooked egg. Just not good.

Awesome little breakfast joint in Appleton, WI. Friendly service, delicious food, and great prices. I will definitely come back next time I'm in town for work. read more

My dad and I just ate there this morning. We love their breakfast and lunch isn't too bad. The staff are great too.

My family and I went here again for breakfast. I have nothing but praise for Chefo's again. The food was plentiful and delicious and the service was great and attentive. It gets busy in there so plan to get there early before rushes or be patient for some awesome food. I had Zach's skillet with the pancakes and again only praises for all the food. read more

Great & prompt service! Good food. Group of 5 and we had Omelets, Crossiants, Pancakes, Waffles... all very good. Great portion size too. read more

Chefo's it's a fantastic place, great food, great atmosphere, great staff, very professional and courteous. You have to give them a try. I would recommend them to everyone. Also a shout out to Riley!!! read more

We walked in and seated ourselves Sat for 10 minutes with no acknowledgment that we were in the restaurant!! No menus, nothing!! 3 employees were standing around the cash register and one waitress was delivering food to seated customers. Another couple came in after us and the waitress went right over to them. At that point we got up and left. Worst service ever for a local restaurant. Should not even get one star. read more

The absolute best place you can stop for breakfast, I can not recommend them enough! This is the kind of place where you want to order one of everything when you go, and you never leave hungry! read more

A local favorite! The food is great and priced appropriately .. my new favorite is the Kimberly Sandwich! We've only ever been here for breakfast, will look to expand into lunch soon. The building decor is a bit outdated with wood paneling all over, but it does give the place its character. The service staff is always friendly, however they seem to be understaffed during busy times. read more

Awesome breakfast! Friendly staff! Food was great, service was even better! Great mom and pop establishment.

Everyone at our table was satisfied w our meals! It's a classic American diner type of place. Huge portions and reasonable/cheap prices. The server was pretty freaking awesome. She was serving the whole diner all by herself and she was absolutely killing it. Friendly, patient, and attentive. Definitely give them a try if you need a warm and relaxing meal. Unfortunately I didn't get the servers name. read more

Visiting from AZ and happy we found Chefo's for breakfast. Great service and wonderful food! We ordered the Lumberjack, egg Benedict and the Apple French toast...all were wonderful! read more

I was so excited to come back here for breakfast when we were in town. Because the American fries there were the BEST. They are the sliced kind- not cubes and were delicious. But they don't have them anymore. Now it was little cubes, and they were undercooked. Also the omelet that was so good last time- wasn't. My daughter loved her cheese blintzes though. read more

This is my go-to spot for a morning feast. My little man is all about the lumberjack meal, while I can't resist the gyro omelet, raspberry crepes, and the fab #5 Waffle Combo. In my two-year stint in Kimberly, not once has this place served up a breakfast that didn't tickle my taste buds. The staff? Always grinning. The fellow patrons? Just as chirpy. It's like a slice of small-town charm with a side of syrup. read more

Four of us each had a different breakfast.... All were amazing. Nothing fancy, just good food!

Huge portions, average service times, very laid back greasy-spoon diner atmosphere. If you leave hungry, you have problems.

Atmosphere: Typical small diner with booth and table seating. There is a bar area you can sit at up front. The parking lot is quite large and is easy to access. You can tell everything on the inside is really old and hasn't been updated in a while. Service: I've been here twice, the first visit the service was insane, ABSOLUTELY flawless. My coffee cup was never empty, my water cup was never empty, food was fast. Literally perfect service. The second time I had to get up and get my own coffee, twice. And we had to go up to the counter to ask for simple things, like napkins, or water. The staff was so busy cleaning and closing down (2 hours to closing) that all of the tables were mumbling about the service being nonexistent that were seated next to us. There were maybe 5 tables in the whole place full. Have one waitress dedicated to waitressing and the rest to clean up if you are so worried about it. No offense, but I don't want to spend my brunch listening about how sauces need to be filled as it is shouted across the room. I felt like I was bothering them as a customer for even being in the restaurant, which I did not like. Food: The food was spot on both times. Really good homey comfort food. The quality and quantity you get here is fantastic. The people I dined her with agreed 100% that the food was great and were as satisfied when leaving as I was. Hoping to come here again in the future and have the same great service as the first time so I can bump this review to the 4 stars it should be... read more

It is the first time here to Kimberly, Wi. So I took a Yelp reviewers advice from 6 years ago to skip every thing and go directly to the "stuffed cinnamon French toast". Very yummy so it gets my 5 star Baby Bell award‼Three, small lightly baked-in cinnamon French toast layers, perfectly cooked in egg batter that have two layers of Philadelphia cream cheese that melts and overflow with goodness. The cream cheese is mild. I thought I would need to add syrup...No need, the sweet flavor was enough to carry it through. The French toast was lightly toasted on the outside and moist enough to cut with my fork. Good French toast is all the work of a good chef. Great job! For a big guy, you need to eat this as a "combo". I ordered 2 eggs/ easy-over. The egg yolks were not over cooked. Bacon was crispy like I am used too. Nothing special, just standard good quality. Coffee was mild enough that 2 half and half dispenser cups was all I needed to eliminate the need for sugar. Service was excellent, waitress was friendly but the table amenities lacked attention to detail. No sugar packs, missing stir straws or spoon for mixing the coffee and I thought I needed syrup so I had to borrow a dispenser from another table. I came into dine around close to 2 pm, past the rush hour on Sunday so that might explain the problem of stocking my table. Nit pick items that did not detract from the overall quality of the food but the waitress should have picked up on the missing details. I will definitely be back to try more specialty food items. read more

This place is not 5 stars. More like 3 stars. The food was just okay. Very average. I got The eggs Benedict, we also tried 2 different combos. Again, not bad just not worthy of 5 stars. Service was also marginal. read more

As a Chicagoan, it's been ages since I've been out to brunch and there were plenty of tables waiting to be seated. Food was great and prices were even better! read more

This is the most incompetent run restaurant I've ever been in. We had to wait over 30 mins just for her to take our order. The food was terrible. The biscuits and gravy came from a can. Horrible. The sausage wasn't fully cooked. The hash browns were over cooked. The eggs benidict was over cooked. Had to ask several times for small things. The tables around us were also severely disappointed. They never got their order. OWNER CAME OUT AND TOLD US NOT TO COME BACK. no worries dude. We won't!! read more

Breakfast Quesadilla Special This breakfast is fabulous; my husband ordered a loaded Breakfast Quesadilla he asked to load it. Chefo's portions are large enough to have two or three meals. Our server Nicki was fantastic. We will return. If you don't see the Breakfast Quesadilla on the menu, it is worth asking for it. I love Chefo's food. read more

Huge variety of breakfast goodies and inexpensive too. 4 different kinds of French toast, Belgian waffles, pancakes, potato pancakes, frittatas, skillets, omelets, traditional breakfasts, biscuits and gravy - they have it all and solid showings of each. Friendly staff and good service too. The biggest cup of hot chocolate you've ever that made my boy soooo happy. There was an inch of just marshmallow below the whipped cream. Good coffee too! read more

The food was ok but the service was beyond unacceptably bad. Seat yourself seating seems to lead to servers all assuming that someone else is handling the table. We received menus and coffee fairly quickly, but waited for about 20 minutes before anyone remembered to take our order. 2 other tables near us were seated with new customers, orders taken and received their food before we could even place our order. My husband's eggs in the Eggs Benedict were cold and the side of bacon never arrived. The staff seemed to be busy but not overloaded - the awful service was not attributed to under-staffing, which would have been an acceptable excuse. read more

Hidden gem in Kimberly! Excellent pancakes and my favorite breakfast, smothered biscuits and gravy, is amazing. Food is fast and the staff is very nice! Go to breakfast joint! read more

Wonderful, friendly people. My wife and I had breakfast and The food was awesome. FYI whatever quantity of eggs you order you will get a plus one. Order 2 get 3, order 3 get 4... The restaurant was clean and what you would expect from a breakfast/lunch place. read more

Went for breakfast. Food was good with generous portions. Bacon was nice and crispy. Service was prompt and friendly. Seems like there are quite a few regulars. Things we know from our visit: Belgium waffle and potato pancakes very good. Eggs cooked properly as were the hash browns, I hate it when the hash browns don't have any crispyness, theirs were perfect. read more

Had a Hawaiian waffle. It was very good even though they were out of pineapple. Wife had a blintz which she liked. The service was very good too. Neat and clean inside, a pleasant atmosphere. Two warnings though. We were charged more than what the menu said, so be careful about that. Also consider relieving yourself before going there because their restrooms are not well maintained. Wife had her comments about that too. read more

Fabulous breakfast. First visit was an overwhelming success. Everything done to perfection. Corned Beef Hash skillet was good and flavorful, vegetables tender-crisp. Outstanding crapes. One for the list. We'll be back. read more

The food was good, but nothing special. The prices were very reasonable and inexpensive. They forgot someone's meal at our table, so that took a little bit of time. When she finally got her potato pancakes, they were undercooked. Waitress was really good at taking care of us and was there when needed. I would go back if someone else wanted to go there but I wouldn't go out of my way. read more
