Guy Fieri Names This Wisconsin Diner the Best in the State

The Best Wisconsin Restaurant, According to Guy Fieri
With 49 seasons of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives under his belt and a resume packed with Food Network hits, Guy Fieri knows his way around the best bites in America. The self-proclaimed Mayor of Flavortown has sampled it all—juicy burgers, towering pancakes, and sandwiches big enough to break a sweat—and when it comes to Wisconsin, one diner reigns supreme: Franks Diner in Kenosha.
According to lovefood.com, "Founded in 1926, Frank’s Diner is one of the oldest diners in the US – and it continues to impress with its classic comfort food." If you’re envisioning tiny booths, a counter where locals swap stories, and a menu that could double as a love letter to comfort food, you’re spot on.
But let’s talk about why Frank’s Diner earned a spot on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives and Guy’s list of all-time favorites: the Garbage Plate. This isn’t your average hashbrown-and-eggs breakfast. It’s a glorious pile-up of eggs, hash browns, green peppers, onions, cheese, and your choice of meat—all served in portions so generous they make Wisconsin winters look mild. As lovefood.com puts it, "It’s worth stopping by for this epic dish alone."
Locals know Frank’s Diner as more than a place to eat—it’s a slice of history, a must-stop on any foodie’s road trip, and the coziest spot to tuck into a meal you’ll rave about for weeks.
So, if you’re craving a meal that packs comfort and chaos (in the best way), make your way to Frank’s Diner. The garbage plates are waiting, and trust us—Guy Fieri would never steer you wrong.
