    Tasty Diner Coffee
    Rhonda F.

    I LOVE Eli's and can't wait to return! This north side location tucked into the shopping plaza near the grocery store is so easy to visit. There is tons of parking and several stores. You can do your banking, stop in the Dollar Store and pick up your groceries after you enjoy breakfast or lunch at Eli's. The cafe has big storefront windows, has cute decor and is super clean. There are a ton of booths running along the walls all the way to the back. There are a few tables as well. The owner greeted us warmly and made us feel so welcome. Our server was FANTASTIC!! We never had to look for anyone when we needed something. There was always someone checking on us. Nice!! My sister ordered a traditional breakfast and loved it. She ate everything on her plate. I enjoyed my Veggie Skillet. There were tons of vegetables and the scrambled eggs were fluffy perfection. The Italian bread toast was the perfect addition. I cannot explain how fantastic Eli's really is. If you are looking for breakfast or lunch and want to feel like you are eating someone's home - this is the place. My sister and I left raving to each other about our experience.

    Mexican style chorizo and eggs
    Abby C.

    Glad to check out this place on the last day of 2023, yes they are still open for breakfast and brunch on NYE. We arrived at around noon for lunch and there were already quite a few people. We were warmly greeted right when we stepped in and were taken to a booth. We had a toddler and they were very kind to bring a high chair as well! The service was very welcoming and good!! Three of us (excluding the toddler) ordered an omelette, a skillet and a Mexican style chorizo eggs dish. The portions are moderate and we were able to finish them all except for the toasters and tortillas on the side. Love the omelette and the skillet, and of course the rice and beans are so good! Owner and most waiters/waitress are Mexican as you can tell it will be authentic! The toddler liked the pancakes lol The inside was decorated with a lot of winter holiday decorations, and it created a really nice vibe. With great service and great food at a reasonable price, I think it now became one of our favorite places for brunch in the Kenosha area! Btw it's in the plaza where dollar tree and pick n save and lots of other shopping options are at, so it just made it very easy to go grocery shopping afterwards :)

    2 eggs over easy, bacon,crispy hash browns and biscuits and gravy.

    Just tried Eli's Cafe out today and they have the best biscuits and gravy in Kenosha. Service was outstanding, food came out quickly and never seen the bottom of my coffee cup. Highly recommend you try this place!

    Gyro "Skillet"

    What a pleasant experience, for the first time in my life I had some wonderful imitation feta cheese. On my first gyro skillet they added the optional plastic pieces with my eggs. The service was very nice about it and told me "that's just how eggs are". The gyro meat itself was undercooked and chewy. If you don't want any of these wonderful food options take your business somewhere else.

    Previous owners of Reflections in Racine opened this new brunch spot in Kenosha. Food is so good and fairly priced. Highly recommend.

    Want to blow your mind? Check this place out. Unbelievable inventory and options for great Italian…read morespecialty items. The place is a mad house ... parking lot is full and be prepared for a grocery cart rally. Went on a Saturday morning. New guy in town for the experience. Multiple deli counters and fantastic choices. Service was excellent. Tried many cold cuts and salads. Hot dishes were popular with other shoppers but that wasn't a priority for us. Great breads to choose from. This old world deli is jam packed full of goodies. So many, we are returning today for another pass. Couldn't make it out the door without trying some of their chocolates. The triple dipped malted milk balls will put you in a coma. Highly recommend without any reservations. Allow plenty of time and grab a cart as soon as you enter. Bon Appetite !

    We were really excited to check out Tenuta's. We had heard about Tenuta's on a couple of different…read morecooking shows. We had already planned on visiting Franks Diner in Kenosha so we were excited to see that Tenuta's was just a few miles from Franks. After our excellent breakfast at Franks, we made our way to Tenuta's. We were both surprised and kind of excited when we arrived at an empty parking lot with plenty of spaces. It was when we attempted to go in that we noticed that they did not open for 15 minutes. Thus the empty parking lot. What happened over the next 15 minutes was something we have never experienced before. Cars began pulling in 2 and 3 at a time. People were walking up in groups to stand and wait for them to open. Keep in mind this was December and it was pretty cold outside. The closer we got to the time they opened, the more people that arrived. It kind of felt like black Friday shopping. People kept lining up and before you knew it, the parking lot was almost full. Wow. All for good reason as we got inside. Tenutas' is a one stop shop. They have pre-made foods, frozen foods, deli hot food, alcohol, of course some cheese, you name it. We picked up some Italian sausage, some frozen ravioli with their homemade sauce and a pack of their Italian beef. We really enjoyed the ravioli and the homemade sauce was delicious. Being a Chicago guy, the Italian beef was good, just not Chicago quality. The mild Italian sausage was very good and we look forward to enjoying the additional links that we have left. Very popular place that we would definitely visit again when we are back in the area.
