Where is the Best Lunch Spot in Milwaukee, Wisconsin?
Qudoba has become of staple in my life for about a year now. My favorite is the Vegetarian Burrito. I don’t know if it is the salso or the cilantro in the rice, but I crave that thing on a weekly basis. The resturant is unique too, and I like that.Pros + Its fast, lots of food, fills you upCons – can be crowded, there isn’t one By, my house
Simply put, the best flavor and tasting cornbeef and pastrami I have had out of seven different states. I would make a trip across town to get one sandwich, no lie cause I have done that. Anyone looking to have cornbeef with no comparison needs to go to Jakes. Go early, cause people will line up around the corner for the wait!
How can you not love this place? Though crowded on prime drinking nights, there is a great camaraderie as you wait around the horseshoe of a counter waiting for a couple of spots to open up, staring out the windows that have steamed up from the pots steaming warm and wet in the center of the room. The chili is Cincy style–which is not to be found in New York City, that’s for sure. I would get it with the well cooked spaghetti as a base, add some beans and then the chili on top. That’s where the spice is. But you can get it with only the spaghetti or just the beans. On the counter is the oil—replete with hot chiles sitting inside to give it that extra kick. Add some sour cream and raw onions, mix in the oyster crackers and it’s several layers of yum.The other reviewer seems to be comparing this to a more traditional Texas style if chili—it most certainly is not that, though I love that too. This is midwestern style and as an example of that stands alone. Well worth a visit, even
Note to visitors and tourists – you MUST go to Kopp’s when in Milwaukee. This is real custard, silky smooth and full of flavor the Wisconsin way. Out-of-towners I have taken there before marvel at how good this stuff is. “Custard” anywhere else is just an imposter. The burgers and fries are awesome as well. And the service? The most efficient food place I have ever been in. You can see everything happening right before your eyes and it’s a well oiled machine. I try to go there whenever I go back home. Now, Mr. Kopp, can you open a location out here in Washington DC?Pros + Fast service, Variety of selections
