Tucked away off the Beltline, is a family owned diner that has the greatest sandwiches and homemade soups. You will find it between the Fishhatchery and Seminole exits on the north side of the Beltline. It s a wonderful alternative to fast food or the chain restaurants that always have the same old thing at a high price. Portions here are reasonable too! Not over the top, but just right.Different burger specials every week, soups are homemade and it just feels so cozy.

We used to come to this restaurant at least a couple of times a month. Unfortunately, there have been far too many mistakes, inconsistent service and ridiculous wait times to continue to over pay for wings. We love a couple of the sauces, but not enough to deal with the aggrevation. At the most recent visit, people who came after us were getting their food before us. My husband asked about this and they "found" our food and mentioned something about it being under a heat lamp. Why wouldn't they have just brought it out? Of course it was cold. And it was the wrong size, but we were charged for the larger size. Speaking of size. It would be great to have the number of wings listed in the menu instead of the words small, medium and large. They probably do this so it's more difficult to do the math and figure out what you are paying per wing, but it has to make things harder on the servers as they must answer that question again and again. Speaking of servers, some are good. Some are not and act like customers are a bother. Tip- If you want your wings fully covered in sauce, you have to order them "wet". Seriously? I've never had to specify this anywhere else.

This place doesn't look like much from the outside, but the food here is really good. It's improved a lot -- new cook and big expanded menu now. We went on a neighbor's recommendation that the tacos and Friday Fish Fry were excellent with this new cook. Fish was great! I had the butter steamed fish, and my husband had the deep fried fish. It came with choice of potato, cole slaw, and a cheddar biscuit that was pretty darn good. They charge extra for the loaded baked potato, but it was great. Husband had the clam chowder, and rated it one of the best he's ever had. Bloody marys are usually excellent here; this time they contained a funky ingredient we couldn't put our finger on, so I drank my husband's. Service is great, and the other customers are always friendly. It was a Friday night and not overly crowded, so that was great.

I've been to Brasserie V a couple of times, after a friend's recommendation as the place to get the best burger. I admit that I was not amazed by their burger; Although I did like the meat, I did not particularly like having a toastie bread instead of a bun. I've tried their salads, which I found to be a good attempt but would not describe them as good. However, I have really enjoyed their steak thus I am giving 3 bubbles instead of 2. Their beer menu is extensive but they have small measures.

Our group of six decided to give Funk's Pub a try this past Monday evening. It's in a newer commercial area with plenty of parking. Most of the nearby businesses seemed to be closed when we arrived around 7:30 pm. It was about 25% full while we were there. There is a stage setup for live music although they were not playing.Our waitress was friendly, gave us menus and took our drink orders. You had to go up to the bar to see the beer listing, but our waitress was able to tell us what was available. The offerings seemed pretty diverse.The menu is pretty standard pub fare w/a few surprises like the Falafel Salad and Roasted Red Pepper soup. Our group ordered Fried Pickle Chips, Spinach and Artichoke Dip; the Mushroom and Swiss Burger, Tilapia Tacos; the Buffalo Chicken Wrap, and multiple Cubanos. Although it didn't seem particularly busy, there was a significant wait between receiving our beverages, then one appetizer, then another, and finally our meals. Our waitress appeared to be the only one working and we wondered if perhaps they only had a single chef as well.The food was very good. The pickles came with two dips, one of which had just a bit of spice. The spinach dip was creamy and delicious and was served with plenty of carrots, celery and chips although the chips were in small pieces. The tacos, the burger and the wrap all had good reviews but everyone with a Cubano said they were excellent. Pork, ham bacon, roasted red pepper, pickles, provolone and Cajun mustard -- not your typical Cubano. Most of us had pub chips with our meals. They were handmade, hearty and crispy.For pub food, I thought this was really good. The ambiance was fine, but if a band was playing I think it would have been too loud. I do wish they had been a little faster in bringing out our orders, but again I wondered if they were just overstaffed. I'd be happy to go back if I was in the area.

We had great fun! Place packed! Long wait for a table (like 1 1/2 hours!) Food good and very reasonably priced. Old fashioned drinks outstanding as we waited at the bar for our table. Great place for all ages but must like to stand around ( or if u are lucky) sit at the bar waiting for food. Once seated food service is pretty quick. Interesting old Madison photos on the walls. Beer bottle chandeliers looked neat. I would definitely good again but would get there as soon as possible to 5 pm on Friday if you want a quick table.

I love everything about Dotty Dompling's. The atmosphere is great and everything is really clean. You can just tell it's a well-run operation.The servers are excellent.The food is delicious. The cheese curds are so yummy (especially with the sweet mustard sauce) and the burgers are so good. Perfectly executed. My mouth is watering just thinking about it. It's become a must-stop restaurant for us whenever we visit Madison.

We get together once a month and whoever is available shows up which was about twenty for our post holiday gathering. The staff especially our waiter Nick did a great job accommodating us without prior warning. Food was very good as were bloody marys and beer selection was grand. We all had a good time to wind up 2018.

Beer list is impressive, food was good. Service not so much. Couldnât tell if this was a âlocalâ place where the staff catered to their regulars, because they seemed to know a lot of people by name. But they were very inattentive, screwed up my order and didnât offer to fix it. But overall I had a good dinner on a Friday night while in town for business, and would probably go back.
