I haven't been here in years and forgot how great this place is for bar food. This is one of my favorite fish fries in the city because it's hand breaded with a flavorful coating with flaky hot fish. The coleslaw is perfect because it's very fine with a celery seed. The rye bread is fresh and not dried out. My best advice is to get the breaded mushrooms. They are some of the best I've ever eaten because again they are hand breaded. On Fridays you must get free fresh cake again homemade not bought. We tried three of the desserts and they didn't disappoint. Drinks are a strong pour and if you're lucky the owners wife will serve you because she's awesome. Get your bootie to Stallis for some of the best bar food around. BTW their French dip was also really tasty.

The owner, Dean, always takes time to talk with us, which makes you feel genuinely welcome every visit. The food is better than you'd expect for a dive bar--we especially love their pizza (sausage, mushroom, and onion is our go-to). This last time we received free dessert too, bonus! They do a solid fish fry every Friday too--definitely worth stopping in for if you're local. If you're looking for a laid-back, friendly place with good food and great conversation, this is a great neighborhood find.

Date of visit: March 28, 2025…read more Things didn't start out great with a dismissive wave from the serving staff when we entered and looked around with uncertainty as there was no visible sign regarding the procedure for customer seating, but once we got The Wave, we found a high table off to the side in the back like the riff raff we are. Thankfully things got better from there, with the two servers both assisting and providing suggestions for food. Speaking of the food, it was quite good! I went with the mushroom swiss burger and a side of tots, and both were delicious. Initially I was a bit disappointed by the lack of tots, but given the size of the burger and my desire to shed some post-holiday weight, the portions were perfect! The burger was cooked just as I wanted, and the tots had the perfect amount of crisp and crunch.

Used to love this place like crazy…read more. Today, the bartender let us know we could sit wherever we'd like, and then we waited 5 minutes. Not a big deal, 5 minutes is good. She returned to our table to take our drink orders, and then we waited 10 more minutes for our actual server to take our order. I don't fault the bartender, she was great. The menu is not nearly as good as the old menu. A lot of the old corn beef specialty plates like the McRoberts Plaid are long gone, and my corned beef hash plate had no sides included (said so right in the menu), so when I looked for a list of their side items on the menu, there was no "sides" section, so I asked for some bacon. The server didn't know how to ring in a side of bacon. Wha? That's gotta be easy, no? My wife got the Reuben sandwich and chips. For the price, we thought we'd get some high quality, possibly house-made chips..what did we get? Ruffles. Meh. Waited about 15 minutes for our food (not bad), but because we waited so long for her to take our order, we both ran out of beverages halfway thru our meals. Had to wave our server down because she just never returned to ask us if we needed anything else. I know waving down a server to some seems rude, but I was desperate for a refill on an empty glass that was empty for many minutes. After the meal was over, our server didn't return again, so I again had to wave her down to get the check. She didn't return for us to pay the check, so another bartender eventually came over to finish the transaction. Total time spent getting breakfast at noon at a half filled McBobs was an hour and ten minutes. That's kind of a long time for breakfast for 2. At least they don't out the mandatory tip on anymore. Owners: Look at the old McBobs menus and consider reintroducing some of the classic breakfast items. This was not nearly as good as the old menu. And please, if you're short staffed, step in. Thanks!

A quick search on Yelp brought up this spot in Elm Grove which I somehow had never been to. We dropped by and our party of three were able to find a table right away. The outside is so cute with blooming plants everywhere and creeping vines on the brick. It's lovely! Inside was cozy and we were able to find a spot in one of their high backed booths. My brother ordered a Harp Lager, which he was pleased to find on their beer menu. For my lunch, I got a chicken caesar wrap with side salad in lieu of fries. Both were great! The wrap was packed with chicken which made for a hearty and filling lunch. The service was fine and the prices were reasonable. Get to it!

Service is cordial and swift, orders come to table fast and tables turned over quickly. Place is very clean and very much a southeast Wisconsin "corner bar". I would have liked my fish fried longer, too light for me. There was a 3% up-charge for the perch. My perch meal with tip was $25. I did not have anything to drink. No idea if other fish had an up-charge. I didn't see it mentioned anywhere about the up-charge. You get a lot for your money (see perch meal picture). Very nice casual hole-in-the-wall. I would try it again.

She immediately ordered us the carnivore tots. You may not want to order them if you are just two people and also want to eat dinner as they are huge and very good. We regretted our life choices and stuffed ourselves. The only thing that I can suggest is adding a bunch of chopped green onions and some sour cream to it. That's what we did with the leftovers after reheating them in the air fryer and that made it even better. I ordered us a three piece fish fry to split. My wife got mad at me when the food arrived because we got so much food that she thought I had ordered us two orders but nope. The bill came and it was just a single order. She apologized. We will be back next time we are in the area for sure!
