Visiting Uncle Wolfie's has been on my list of places since I moved here in 2021. I'm unsure of why it took me 2.5 years to get here but I'm going to blame it on my husband. Since it was still my birthday weekend, it was my call. We got there at 8:10ish (10 minutes after they open) and we were lucky enough to get a spot for 5 people right away and then bam it was filled up. We did hear it was a slow start to Sunday breakfast so, they fill up very quickly, be prepared to wait for your table (it's worth it).
My dad and I ordered bloodys and since he's from Illinois he was very excited about the beer chaser. I was too but he was in some sort of shock. My Gucci kid got hot chocolate. It wasn't a regular hot chocolate but a chocolatey, steeped creamy hot beverage with a beautiful work of art on top. I'm not good at describing beverages so just imagine the fanciest hot chocolate!
We had a hard time giving our full attention to the menu because the restaurant itself is really very charming. Milwaukee is special to my dad and I. We have some deep love for it and the place just makes you feel that warm, fuzzy, artistic, homey, welcoming vibe. Once we took in the atmosphere, it was time to order. Babs, our server was great and patient with us. Once we dialed in our order I asked if this was a good introduction to Uncle Wolfie's since we are newbies. We got the full approval!
We sipped as we waited for our food and really got to enjoy everyone's company. Then the food came. Phone cameras came out, hands were pushing everyone's arms away for the perfect shot and then out of no where, I had tasted everyone's meal before they had. I wasn't even embarrassed or sorry. It was so friggin good! I got the spamlette (not sure about any of the spelling). Not sure what my husband got, a corn beef sandwich made with potato latke waffle thing. Wish I could remember the name but it was spicy and oh so good. My dad got the Big Wolfie (sorry if I'm not correct on these names). The potatoes that come with this dish are sooo good! My kids got Johnny cakes and sausage. Both were incredible!! Back to my omelette..the star of the show. Yo, this thing was too good. I wanted another one. I'm sad I shared (kind of had to at that point). The kewpie on top with the scallions, get out of here. Not to mention spam. Spam me up baby!
Overall a 10/10. Will be back. Very soon. Just need to digest from my birthday weekend.
