    Meat Skillet with Sourdough Toast
    John F.

    Hidden in a back street strip mall, the only thing I didn't like about this place was trying to find it! From reading some of the other reviews on Yelp I noticed that the Oak Street Cafe has been around for a while... I found this hard to believe because the place was so clean it actually looked like they opened recently. Very impressive! Service and food were excellent and it came out pretty quick. All around great experience.

    The food was made the way I asked, they were busy it's New Year's Eve brunch. Can't expect the server to come back and ask you if you need anything else. Normally a server would come back and ask how was the food or do you need anything. Our server didn't even bring us our dishes and I never saw him after taking our order. The restaurant looked clean. I would come back because they were fast and food was made the way I asked.

    Bacon Cheese omelette - very good!

    I have a good feeling about this place. Ordered pickup during Covid times, they were still open for indoor seating and staff was wearing masks. Good vibe all around. Server that took my order, rang me up, and handed me my food was delightful. Has a nice old school diner vibe and small counter where there was a regular chatting it up with said server. Prices were fair. The bacon and cheese omelette I ordered was great. Came with a decorative and ripe orange slice, homemade jam, sourdough, and hash browns. This breakfast is a litmus test for me in finding a proper breakfast spot, and they certainly delivered. See you next time!

    I love eating here, it's a good experience every time. The service is good and the staff is very friendly. The food is always delicious and arrives quickly. I love the omelettes - the egg is perfectly thin and stuffed with ham and cheese. Most of the portions are more than generous. This is a small cafe and the customers are mostly older. There's only a few parking spots in front, however there is a parking lot across the street that always has room. If you want hot sauce you should specify that you're looking for Tabasco sauce.. otherwise they bring you buffalo sauce.

    Food, service was all great! Short wait time when we ordered our food and when it came to our table.

    Our server was cut loose on his first night on his own and was very pleasant and friendly. He was…read morestill a bit in the learning phase, but his demeanor and attitude made up for any minor lapses in service. We started out with me ordering my standard martini order, which is slightly complicated, and he delivered wonderfully...it just took a few minutes, but apparently he was responsible for tracking down the martini glasses (hint: they are in the refrigerator). At any rate, we got our drinks and ordered our food. When the food came out I took one bite and discovered my Turkey Reuben was a Corned Beef one instead. He took it back to the kitchen and they were correcting the order and he told us we would not be charged for that, which was a nice accomodation. What he meant was we would not be charged for 2-the right one and the wrong one. Hmmm, when we asked about it, he went to the manager and they comped us $5 off the bill. That works fine for me for the short wait. The correct sandwich was heaped full and very tasty. My wife got the Turkey Pita, which was also pretty tasty and chocked full of ooey-gooey delicious Tzatziki sauce, turkey, and other fixins. The building is interesting, as it seems like 2 bar/restaurants that decided to connect to each other. There are 2 full bars (only one in use the night we were there), and two dining areas; one by each bar. Overall, I'd go again. Food was solid and prices very reasonable.

    Get the gumbo! But be aware: It's hot! Nothing too crazy, but it's definitely got a kick to it, and…read moreyou'll be glad that the gumbo comes with little oyster crackers to sprinkle over the gumbo to cut the heat a bit. You'll also want to get the cheese curds, because when in Wisconsin, you get the cheese curds. These curds are crispy yet chewy, and come with ranch dressing. Nicky's specializes in sandwiches, so they have a lot of them on the menu. I got one of their more popular sandwiches -- the Nicky's Thick Cuban. It is indeed thick! Layers of pork and ham, Swiss cheese and pickles. I split it with another person. Half of a Nicky's Thick Cuban plus fries is enough for one person's lunch. That, and a cup of gumbo, and you've got yourself a splendid meal. We visited on a Friday, so one of the people in my party ordered the Fish Fry. I tasted a bite of the crispy fish and it was delicious. The fish fry comes with fries or potato salad, plus a slice of rye bread, butter and slices of raw onion. I didn't know this, but you eat the fish with the bread and butter and onion like a little taco! It's what you do in this part of Wisconsin. Nicky's has a huge bar (two of them, in fact), with every type of drink you can think of. This is a popular restaurant with students at St. Norbert College, as it's right across the street, basically.
