    I downloaded Yelp to leave this review. Oscar's holds a special place in my heart. I grew up in Milwaukee eating these burgers. Unfortunately I no longer live in the Greater Milwaukee Area. The food was extremely affordable and excellent, and the service was amazing and fast. Yuliana at the Franklin location was very helpful, sociable, and professional. Give her a promotion. I understand the difficulties of customer service, a lot of people are Karens and blame the front of house. However, I had an excellent experience and will be glad to come back the next time I am in town. A+ times Sincerely, Thomas Joseph Grant (fenix_the_producer)

    Tiramisu (2 scoops)

    Great burgers and custard, absolute staple. I highly recommend the mushroom swiss burger and a black cow shake (root beer flavor) as that's my go-to order!! If tiramisu is the flavor of the day I highly recommend it! My family absolutely loves their tiramisu flavor and we go out of our way to make a stop whenever we notice it on their flavor schedule! The custard is always delicious and great service. We typically get food from the drive through but the inside is really great if you have the time to dine in! They have a train set display that is cool for both kids and adults alike!

    Oscars is definitely a Milwaukee institution. The rotating custard flavors are a fantastic way to keep things fresh every time you go. The custard is delicious and affordable, although my one gripe would be that the food is definitely a bit hit and miss. Good service and decor though.

    Really great place for good ol' burgers, fries, and delicious custard. I live their milkshakes and the different ways I can mix in the real fruit and real flavors into them. The burgers are made fresh and perfect how you want it. If they mess it up you can get corrected and they might get you something else for the error as a thank you. Check them out won't disappoint.

    The cheese is dry and bad not edible at all

    The food is pretty good I recommend trying the mint milkshake!!!everyone is so kind and they treat us like family,they are kind and make us feel welcome.the place is very clean. Although we got containers of cheese for our food and the cheese looked a little dry and bad Edit: I've decided to come back and give it another chance this time the cheese was actually good I tried their hamburger and it tasted wonderfull I also ate their limited time grilled ham and Swiss cheese sandwich and that was amazing im changing this review from 3 stars to 4

    Half gallon of the flavor of the day

    When you order a half gallon, they should have it filled to the absolute top, especially for the price you're paying.

    HAD to come here when we went to Milwaukee . The best fluffy cheese curds and bomb frozen custard. They left out my hot fudge but I'm not too mad about it The burger is actually pretty good too. Quintessential Midwest version - wide patty, minimal veggies, ketchup and pickles

    Buffalo Chicken Sandwich with the proper amount of pickles
    Jeremy E.

    Stopped into here on the way home from Franklin Field. We were expecting a Culver's knock off and we were pleasantly surprised to quickly realize that it's light-year ahead of Culver's. I ordered the buffalo chicken sandwich and asked for extra pickles. I am notorious for being verbally disappointed at what most places consider to be "extra" pickles. For the first time in my 40 years on this planet, I actually had to take pickles OFF of my sandwich there were so many. It was a Christmas miracle. My friend asked for a side of pickles for her burger and she basically got a helping of pickles the size of an appetizer. As far as I'm concerned, if you are a pickle lover than this is the only place to get a burger in Milwaukee. The prices were incredible, the service was amazing, the cleanliness of the joint was top notch and the food was delicious. The woman who gave me my sandwich actually apologized to me for how many pickles the cook put on my burger. You should have seen the smile on my face. If youre looking for a delicious, friendly meal, I can't recommend it enough

    Nice wrapper.

If you were born in the 1900s, you might have had this flavor at a TCBY as a kid. Well, I had to go for it and it tasted JUST like I remembered! It's a couple different flavors in one scoop--blue vanilla, pink bubblegum, yellow lemon and green sherbet or something like it. Either way it was great and was only $6. My fiancée got one scoop of the mango gelato and it it was also very good and didn't have too much mango that it was overpowering. Hers was also $6, which isn't too bad for a scoop of gelato in this day and age. But they do have soft serve cones for $3.50ish if you want regular soft serve and don't want to spend as much money. The inside is cute and has neon signs of different things, it wasn't very busy when we were there. It is in the middle of a strip mall but don't let the outside fool you--the service was great and helpful. We weren't sure what was included in the boba or Italian ice and they were nice enough to tell us. I'd come back to try the Italian ice or to get the Superman scoop when I want some nostalgia.

We also ordered Fire cheese curds and onions rings. The cheese curds were regular good. They were huge and had a nice kick to it. I liked the cheese curds so much I decided to try their Cheese Curd Cheeseburger. It came with their burger co sauce, cheese curds and provolone cheese. The perfect was delicious as well. Very cheesy. Only thing was that they were on the smaller size. Thin patties. Me like thicker burgers. Wouldn't hesitate ordering again. My son ordered their Hickory cheddar. This burger came with fried onion straws, bbq sauce, bacon and cheddar cheese. A very delicious burger as well. Over all we left very satisfied and full. I can't definitely see myself returning next time I'm in the area.

The service was fantastic. I'm sorry I didn't catch our server's name, but she was attentive without being intrusive and took great care of us. We had shared that we were tired and hungry, so she brought us bread, hot from the oven, with butter. I had the quarter dark chicken, which was tasty but a little dry (not surprising considering it was near 11 pm), with sides of baked sweet potato (divine) and french onion soup (a very generous, cheesy, classic bowl - hadn't had it in years and loved it). SO had a burger (juicy and also very generously sized - he couldn't finish the last few bites!) and steak fries (nicely seasoned and tasty). Parking is plentiful, although apparently there's only one entrance. Honestly, the reason it's 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the gambling machines and sports on tv everywhere, which are a nuisance to the atmosphere but didn't detract from the food, our main objective. A solid choice close to the airport. Happy with our experience.

I wasn't planning on trying this, but I was able to get this for free as part of a "Leap Day" promotion through their app. After all the negativity regarding the restaurant's recent comments around "dynamic pricing" this seemed like a nice offer. Wendy's describes the dessert as being made with warm, buttery dough bites baked together with world-famous Cinnabon® cinnamon and topped with their signature cream cheese frosting. I've never had it, but Cinnabon offers an item known as the "Center of the Roll" and they seem somewhat similar. If you've had both, comment if there's a difference. Anyways, this thing looked and smelled fantastic. Thing is, never judge a book by its cover. Despite the name, this was not meant to be pulled apart with your hands. It would be ridiculously messy, so use a fork. The Pull-Apart was warm, but I found the texture to be a little dry and not gooey. There's enough cinnamon to add a nice amount of flavor, but the deal breaker for me was the cream cheese frosting. You're probably thinking I'm going to say there was not enough, but that's not the problem. The problem was it didn't taste like cream cheese. It tasted like a tangy lemon. Not overpoweringly so, but it was weird. I almost gave this a rating of avoid, but that seems too harsh. This is just okay. There are much better cinnamon rolls out there.
