Stillwater has somehow kept this place a secret from Wisconsin people. Or maybe it's the wonderful new-ish bridge diverting traffic from historic downtown that made us miss it..... Regardless Wow! If you haven't you have to, if You've heard, then you know, and if you don't wanna know then you just plained missed out, on the second ? most stunning experience I've ever had at a restaurant. Don't treat this place as a bar restaurant it's not even in the same breath. Long winded I apologize, for starters The lovely waitress offers us warm sugar donuts just as a treat. Spectacular idea. Then we indulged into this heavenly plate of Parmesan fries. I could have just had those and been happy. I had the capper burger. Perfectly cooked wonderfully done personally I'd 86 the ciabata bun for a pretzel bun or traditional bun but it didn't downgrade it at all. my wife had the carbonara... that may have edged out The Post American Eatery .. maybe. It was bursting with flavor absolutely a masterpiece. We ended with some delightful key lime pie. Perfect service perfect food perfect atmosphere. All at 4:00 on a Monday. Standards set high bar none. Mic drop Mad capper. Well done Chef well done all. I'll be back and this time I'll charge my phone one more time Chef well down ?

Recently, I visited this profound establishment. From the point of entry all the way to my seat, I was greeted with top-tier service. My choice of food was the cowboy burger.Once my burger arrived promptly, it wasn't cold or too hot. Each bite was nothing shy of delicious, aromatic, yummy, flavorful, appetizing, mouth-watering, luscious, tender, and scrumptious. The presentation of the burger complimented what each bite tasted like. I particularly loved the bun to meat ratio. The meat was 100% real beef, and the bread was toasted to perfection. If anyone is in the community for a mouth-watering burger, I behoove you too try them out, you won't be disappointed.

I have enjoyed every visit to the Capper. The food is always so good I clean my plate, and the servers are serving with a smile. Great atmosphere, lighting and music. It’s a must stop downtown Stillwater.

My family stays in Stillwater at least twice a year when visiting family near by and on a recent visit we stumbled into Mad Capper and what a wonderful surprise it was. It may seem like another bar/restaurant, but it is not. The food was fantastic and so was the service.We stopped in for lunch one day when another favorite restaurant down the block was a bit too busy and what a bit of luck that was as we now love the Mad Capper. Two of us in our party of three ordered the walleye plate and we both thought it was the best walleye plate we've ever had. It wasn't overly breaded and it was so, so crisp. The Asian style green beans and crispy roasted potatoes were a perfect accompaniment. Seriously, this is a can't miss dish.We loved the walleye plate so much, we came back the next night for dinner so that the third member of our party, who didn't order it at lunch, could order it for dinner. On our second visit, in addition to one walleye plate, we had the beef stew and pasta with tomato sauce. Both were great too.I also love how they start you with an amuse bouche of a mini donut. Yum!Both of our servers were excellent, but because it was slower at dinner, we really had a chance to get to know our server Lexi, which just added to our dining experience.We'll be back again and again on future visits to Stillwater.
Stopped in Late for dinner. Everything was perfect. The duck wontons were awesome.

Three of us stopped for lunch, two ordered the pan fried walleye and one ordered the fish and chips. We came back second time so I could have the pan fried walleye which was wonderful not over breaded, and the French onion soup was also delicious. Our daughter had pot roast on the second visit and my wife had the spaghetti with marinara sauce - the chef was most accommodating. What we like is all the food came out "HOT" so often is is cooled by the time it is served. The big Johnny Walker Black pour on big ice was most enjoyable The ambiance is pleasant, our server Lexi, was wonderful and very attentive to our needs. We come from Atlanta to visit family 3 or 4 times a year in the Stillwater area and will definitely make the Mad Capper a regular stop. Bill B

Such a cool quaint place downtown Stillwater, Mn. The atmosphere is vintage style with a very cool old antique bar. The food was amazing and service was quick. The young waiter was very friendly and informative about things downtown and places to go. Highly recommend ?
