    This was the new restaurant of the week and it's not exactly close to me but I stopped by. The…read morerestaurant is in a huge strip mall that's looks sketchy in a stand alone building with a cellular phone store. The have a bulletproof drive through revolving door which speaks volumes of the area. The guy in the drive through seemed friendly. I ordered the meatloaf, mashed potatoes, dressing and peach cobbler. The food was no joke because it was a big portion of heavy comfort food. Nothing was seasoned well and I come to expect this . The whole meal was covered in brown gravy and came with a corn bread cake. The mashed potatoes were like smooth/whipper but had a different flavor that I'm not used to. The dressing is a traditional corn bread style with I think had turkey breast in it. The meatloaf was two slices and very dense like it had very little fillers. The preach cobbler was like a scoop of peach pie jammed in a container, not too sweet and very dense/thick. I didn't eat half of the meal and one spoon of the peach cobbler and 5 hours later I'm still full. I was confused with the small cranberry sauce container but the dressing was like turkey dinner in a lump. I know the area will keep people away but it's never stopped me from exploring a new restaurant and why my Yelp nickname is the neighborhood traveler, there is so much good food in neighborhoods everywhere.

    Ordered food a little before 4pm and the person who took the phone order said it would be ready in…read more15-20 minutes. Waited 25 minutes before even leaving the house and arrived at 4:30. The doors were locked and there was a cone blocking the drive-thru even though the business is advertised as being open until 5:00pm. My son had to get out of the vehicle to move the cone. Upon approaching the window the woman just stared at me. She didn't greet me or ask if she could help me. I gave her my order number and she told me the price. I paid for the order and she told me it would be another five minutes. They make you pull around to the parking lot and give you a buzzer. She was very unpleasant and said, "walk to the window when the buzzer go off ". Currently there are four other cars parked and waiting. This place is unprofessional and the staff act as if you're irritating or bothering them by patronizing their business. On top of that my mother was calling and I could hear the phone ringing and they intentionally did not answer. A woman brought my food out eventually and she did not smile, did not apologize for the delay, and did not seem to care. She wanted to see my receipt gave my food and then just stared at me. After a few seconds she said "buzzer "...and I completely forgot i had their buzzer because the thing never buzzed. She just randomly brought out food and had to guess which car it belonged to. The entire experience was terrible and the food was not that great! The price for two dinners totaled $48. That was the last time i will be patronizing this restaurant and I will not recommend this place to anyone either.

    Great food , Great service !!! I've always used them throughout the years when not cooking at home…read more. I started years ago when the location of the restaurant was a bit southeast of today's restaurant location . What a Great family soul food restaurant . I salute the Perkins family and ancestors for years of service to our community !!!

    It only took me over 5 years, but I did finally make it to Mr. Perkins. The place was smaller than…read moreI expected it to be, the ambiance was different than I expected it to be, but the food was exactly what I expected it to be. The restaurant has a vintage, divey diner look and feel to it. There is plenty of counter seating and a few booths scattered around the other half of the floor space. On my visit, I'd say the place was less than half full, with a few diners at the counter and several booths taken. I expected more diners since it was just before Noon. However, the carry-out traffic was constant from when I arrived to when I left. The carry-out orders must have been what delayed my food from coming out sooner than I expected. I asked the woman for a recommendation since it was my first visit. She suggested the fried chicken dinner with greens and yams as the most popular items. I took her suggestion but substituted the yams for mac-n-cheese. The chicken dinner comes with two sides and corn bread for $10.95. It was a feast! I saw an order of homemade biscuits get served to another diner and had to order some for myself, too. The greens and mac-n-cheese were good but not great. The mac-n-cheese had a slightly grainy texture and wasn't creamy at all. The flavor was decent for both. The corn bread arrived in the form of small pancakes as I seem to find in soul food restaurants in MIlwaukee (this was my third). They were also good, but nothing special. I don't think they were meant to be, anyway. If you want butter or jelly for your corn bread or biscuits, you might have to ask for it. I did, but but I think she expected me to just borrow some from the guy sitting next to me. So I did. The biscuits arrived as an order of 2 and they were sliced with butter already in them. That could be why my request for butter wasn't tended to. They were light and fluffy and not dense, among the best I've had anywhere. The star of my meal was the fried chicken, as it should be. The chicken skin was very crispy and well-seasoned. The meat itself was moist and hot. This was served very fresh. In fact, the chicken breast came out separately, a few minutes after the other pieces. I'm guessing there are capacity issues. This was the best fried chicken I've had in Milwaukee! Overall, I think I waited 40 minute for the food to come out, but it was worth the wait. I would definitely go back again and recommend that others visit Mr. Perkins. I felt like an outsider because everyone there seemed to be a regular with one exception (other than me). A salesman wearing a white shirt and tie was sitting to my right and was in town from Texas. I asked him how he knew about Mr. Perkins. He said he just went on the internet to find a place to eat nearby and it popped up. He liked the name. He ordered the pork chops and loved every bite. I informed him he was dining in a locally famous establishment with a long history in Milwaukee, which made him even happier about his choice. It took me over 5 years to get here. He made it on his first day in town. He shared some of his BBQ tips with me and another diner sitting to his right. I felt like I was in a scene from a movie. Different people with different backgrounds converge on a place to grab a bite to eat and end up exchanging BBQ tips and business cards. One guy gave me his card for projects on my house that he can help with. You won't just find good food at Mr. Perkins. You'll find good people, too.
