The Island Cafe

Went in and boy do they take their "Wait to be seated" sign seriously. Staff will walk by you without even registering your existence. After a 15 minute wait we were seated at a table with chairs that felt twice as small as they should be. Once a staff did acknowledge our existence and take our orders the food was served fairly quickly. The cinammanon roll was terrific along with the pancakes. My biscuits and gravy had onions cooked in em, a first for me. Wish I'd have known that beforehand. Prices were about average.

Stopped in for breakfast on a early summer Saturday. Place was not too crowded, but we waited by the "wait to be seated" sign for around 15 minutes before our table was nearly given away to someone else before we were finally seated. First thing to greet us was a sign stating that paying with a card will garner you a 3.5% upcharge, so that's never a good sign. I ordered one of the daily specials, the corned beef hash. It was $10.00 and consisted of three small pucks of fried canned corned beef hash, two eggs, and one piece of toast. The food tasted fine, but i would not call it a value. I also had a "sunrise" which is a drink made of champagne and cranberry juice. This was fine, although not terribly high quality, however, i was shocked to see on the bill that it was $9.00. My wife ordered the "Greek Omelet" which tasted fine, and was certainly a larger portion than my meal, but it was of course $14.00. She also had a "Cafe Mocha" for her drink, which was the standout of the meal at $5.50, for a large mug of a tasty coffe based beverage. Overall, the service was fine, if not altogether welcoming or friendly. The food tasted ok, but was nothing special. The serving size was barely adequate. And the prices were much higher than reasonable for the product/service. Honestly, will likely never eat here again, and i do not recommend it, unless you really want a gyro in Minocqua

Really enjoyed our breakfast at Island Cafe. My husband got the Greek omelette and I got the island eggs Benedict. Both were delicious and came out quickly. Our server was very friendly and attentive. Would absolutely go back again!! I regret not getting one of their giant cinnamon rolls, they looked amazing!

Everything about this restaurant was great. The place was clean and smelled amazing. Our server Jen was awesome, super friendly and polite. It was a super busy Sunday morning but it still felt like I had all her attention! Couldnt have asked for better service! The food was fresh and awesome. Overall has a great atmosphere.
