Good food. We got the all American burger and the dirty south tacos. Also got the waffle cut sweet potato fries and onion rings. Food was good quality and well made. Would definitely eat here again. Paid a little more than expected as we good hit with some unexpected up charges. $40+ for two people.

This place was AWESOME! Local vet owned restaurant with great food. Everything is locally sourced and made in house. The pulled pork Mac and cheese was basically two meals in one with how much mac and cheese they slap on there. Would eat here again and again!

Stopped here on the way to a clay festival in Stanardsville and WOW. Food was nothing short of amazing (I got the Southern Burger); everything comes from local farms and the taste definitely reflects that. Service is also top tier! Justina was our server and she was absolutely wonderful. So attentive and kind- just an overall genuine, sweet person. Not sure which was better, the food or the service. But BOTH were top notch. Also love that this place is owned and operated by Veterans. HIGHLY recommend this spot!

Impressed all around... Our three member team had burgers and fries, all of which were large-sized, delicious, and worth the price. They have a patriotic and military service recognition interior that I really liked and took time to look at everything on the walls. I spoke with the owner, a great American who served honorably in the USCG and U S Army and is proud to keep serving the people of Madison and the local community. He tries to source his products from local and veteran suppliers. Great place to eat and honor our still great country! I'll be back.

Was passi g through on our way home from a hike in the mountains and it was great, would recommend.The staff was friendly and helpful. The food was amazing. I got a root beer float and the Pork N Mac sandwich.
Parking: They have 6 or 7 spots out front.

Sooooo delicious! The service was extremely friendly but also very slow. We waited a very long time for our food. It was worth the wait but we weren’t prepared for that kind of wait. Veteran owned and proud. Would definitely recommend and return. Seating inside or out. People outside had their dogs. Lovely atmosphere! Prices were a bit high, but not too bad.

Came across this place after a hike nearby, and it sure was impressive. Legitimately one of the best burgers I've ever had, and actually spicy to boot! And there's no way you're finding comparable prices on local beef, and the shakes use local milk. What an excellent place, I'll definitely make this trip again.

"I'll have another milkshake please!" This is what I've been saying to myself in the mirror in the 2 days since eating at Mad Local. Real ice cream. Perfectly blended. Whipped cream that is actually sweet on top (down with tasteless creams!). And sprinkles (more for aesthetic purposes but I'll take it).Oh and did I mention this place is known for the food? The Good Morning burger (on sourdough, w/a fried egg) was top notch. And the Nacho Pig (w/deep fried waffle crisps), while not mind blowing, was re-eatable.Top it all off with really great service (our waitress checked on us no less than 5 times, with a smile), and this is one of the better diners I've had in years.

We've been there several times over the years but this time the service was very bad as was the food. This is unusual but worthy of note. Five of us we there for Sunday morning and it was also my birthday. The waitress was pleasant but clearly inexperienced and untrained. I ordered scrambled eggs and received fried eggs which were cold, also. We also ordered french fries and didn't get them until we received our check. We had to remind our waitress of the order. She clearly forgot to enter it. Another customer ordered biscuits and gravy which was cold and inedible. No hash browns on the menu for breakfast items, also. I got one piece of toast with my eggs. Overall bad experience. Given our history, I'll give them one more chance and if that doesn't improve then our loyalty earned over the years will be gone.
One of the best hidden local eateries in the area. The burgers there are to die for. The items seem to be locally sourced and homemade. My friends took the veteran Burger challenge and survived(can you finish it). While I've had the local Burger.

This place is amazing. We were just looking for a quick bite to eat after a weekend of hiking and stumbled upon this place on the way home. Good thing we did! Service was excellent, food was excellent, and I can't wait to go back! Keep up the great work.

Great find! We loved our meals. Mom and pop burger joint. Great portions. We all left either stuffed or with a take home box. The staff were fantastic. We will definitely return next time we are in town and folks should check it out. If there is a wait.... It's worth it. Great beer selection too!

Delicious food! The wine slushies are great and the service is so friendly. Very busy place but there's enough seating for at least 4 people in a group. Milkshakes are amazing. Burgers taste better than the fast food restaurants. Fries are amazing and are still crispy after 30 minutes, full of flavor. Can't wait to come back!
