Madcats Reviews
I've always enjoy Madcats meals since they've opened and the chef specials have always been out of the park yum. This past weekend was super busy with travel and squeezing in crazy workouts. I've never ordered 2 meals in 1 night but I arrived hungry. Both meals were amazing and I wanted protein with fiber for my recovery meal. I'm looking forward to other dishes on my future visits. I'm posting my dinner plates in the comment below.
The BURGER BOWL was sooo good! Spring greens, pickles and tomatoes, with a spicy mayo and a giant burger on top! My new fav. Replacing the Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich!
Delicious food, kind staff, great atmosphere...and regular LIVE MUSIC!

Madcats is a friendly and well-managed restaurant that offers a variety of experiences, including bingo nights, live music events, jazz-jams, and open mic nights. The atmosphere is described as chill, intimate, and lively, with a welcoming ambiance that builds a sense of community. The staff is praised for their friendly and attentive service, making guests feel comfortable and cared for.
The restaurant hosts different events like open mic on Tuesdays, karaoke on Thursdays, bingo nights, trivia nights, and even weddings, where the staff's great communication and personability shine through. Visitors enjoy the food, especially the wings with buffalo garlic and garlic flavors, and the food portions are generous. One customer also mentioned the BURGER BOWL, which includes spring greens, pickles, tomatoes, spicy mayo, and a giant burger on top, becoming a favorite meal. The soups of the day, made in-house, are sizable and flavorful, with French onion soup being a popular choice. The popcorn shrimp, served with sauce, and boiled edamame with sesame oil, add to the variety, though some flavors like sesame oil are unique touches.
Madcats is also a good spot for live music, where guests can get close to the band and enjoy the energetic vibe. The environment is warm, welcoming, and perfect for seeing local talent. Overall, Madcats is a great place to enjoy dinner, good music, and a sense of community.
