The dining room area is clean, neat and nicely decorated. Our server was professional and friendly. The food was hot and delicious, fresh, just all around outstanding.

And the fruit was absolutely fresh! The pancakes were so light and fluffy it was hard to stop eating after I was full. We loved this restaurant so much that we made it a point to stop in for breakfast again on our way back to FL after vacationing in ND. Obviously loved by the locals as there were several tables of ladies and gents enjoying the food and each other's company. :-)

The service was very friendly and collaborative - meaning we were offered great hospitality from all of the staff members.

Quick tips: - You order in front and will seat your party once everyone has ordered. This may have caused some bottlenecks in the line but we got there when it wasn't as busy. - Your food items will be delivered to your table. - Their hot chocolate and coffee drinks were so delicious! - Their cookies and treats are also a must try!

The ambiance was really nice, the space is very welcoming, and bright. I highly recommend trying this place out, I can tell it's going to become a neighborhood staple.

The younger guy that helped us was super friendly and able to handle our party with ease. The food was excellent and arrived to the table hot, fresh, and around the same time.

Now the good: the food was absolutely incredible. Easily a 10/10. Our group of five had a variety of dishes; the Marma burger, Rosa fettuccine, pesto penne, walleye, and Bang Bang shrimp - and every single one was excellent. The whipped feta and Brussels sprouts were standouts and a must-order. The atmosphere is beautiful and inviting, and our service was fantastic; attentive, friendly, and seamless. That said, the 90-minute table limit made the experience feel rushed. With five people ordering drinks, appetizers, and entrées, it's just not realistic to have a relaxed dinner in that timeframe. We didn't even have time for dessert before being asked to wrap up. What made it more frustrating was that tables of four across from us were seated before we arrived and were still comfortably enjoying their meals while we were being rushed out. Bottom line: amazing food and great service, but if you're looking for a leisurely, relaxing dinner - especially with a group - this may not be the best fit. Go for the food, just be prepared for the pace.

We opted for the dining section since we had little ones with us. There was one server covering our section, which had our table and another table. While she seemed to be keeping up with orders reasonably well, her friendliness left something to be desired. As the face of the restaurant, especially in a family-friendly section, a warmer attitude would've gone a long way. Food-wise, everything we ordered was solid. I had the deluxe patty melt with fries which was tasty, well-cooked, and a generous portion. Others at the table had walleye strips, nachos, mac and cheese, and another sandwich (can't remember the name). Across the board, everyone enjoyed their meals, and the portions were definitely generous for the price. Overall, Howard's delivered on food and portion size, but the service could use a little polish to make it a more welcoming experience. Would I come back? I'd likely consider, I just hope the service is better this time.

The service was fast and accurate as our very friendly server NATHAN R professionally cared for us. When the food arrived quickly we were delighted to find that the items we chose were outstanding. My wife's chicken wrap was more like a log because it was so filled with the tasty ingredients. My sandwich was my first time for a BLT that had two added ingredients: an over-easy fried egg and a slice of cheddar cheese. It was delicious. In fact, I will request the egg and cheese on future BLT's. And no, the traditional BLT flavor was not overwhelmed by the added flavors, it was enhanced! All in all, our dining experience was excellent and the added bonus of reasonable prices. When we get near Menomonee we will dine here again!
