An eclectic sort of place. A kind of Goldilocks zone in libation. Treat yourself.

Stop here after reading that they were voted one of the top 3 fish Fry's in Madison and it did not disappoint me. Fish was outstanding. Excellent beer battered and flavorful and nice crispy waffle fries. Service was friendly and prompt. Highly recommend and definitely #1 fish fry in Madison.

Stopped here for the fish fry as it has been voted Madison’s best for a couple years. They had a great selection of fish fry. A lot of places usually have your basic beer battered cod but this place had three different options with different breading as well. The jalapeño popper dip was amazing. I ordered the vegetarian beer cheese soup, which was OK but I thought it would’ve been better if it had more cheese. It tasted more like a loaded baked potato. The fish was excellent and the waffle fries were perfect. The Wisconsin old-fashioned was delicious. I also had the Caesar salad which had generous portions of shaved Parmesan cheese.
Amazing food, amazing service, amazing staff. Thank you for a great experience!

I went to Dexter's with a group of 4. We were seated right away, it was not crowded so not noisy, & our wait person was prompt & friendly. He gave a great description of Brew Fries. They're the extra crispy & crunchy kind. Love them!! I had a Special of Salmon Patty BLT!! It was DEEELISH!! The salmon was moist & nicely seasoned, the bacon & lettuce crisp, & the tomato slices firm & a generous thickness. All topped off with a generous amount of mayo & served with sour dough bread. This was SO good that now I want to make it at home. Kudos to whoever created this sandwich!! My dining companions chose the Grilled Cheese, which was "fancied up" with broccoli in the generous melted cheese, & the other 2 are Vegans & chose the Impossible Burger. We all had great meals & will definitely return soon!! My only regret is that I don't recall our server's name because I'd really want to give him Kudos too. He was fun & attentive. We were there Sunday, Feb 4, mid-afternoon.

We stopped here for the first time to kill a little time before an airport pickup. So glad we did! We shared a yummy potato app and had a delicious Bloody Mary! Friendly staff and clean atmosphere. We will be back!

Go to Kwick Trip for flavor.... I understand why all of southern WI comes to the northland year around... our food is wayyyyy better. The atmosphere was fab but the food was . Our server was decent-the place was packed and she was just trying to survive the Saturday night rush! My partner had the Dexter's smash-tasted somewhere between McDonalds and White Castle-garlic fries weren't bad. Weren't good but weren't bad... My son had the cx strips--came out over cooked-super crispy (black in color and unable to chew). I had the wings--they were mushy on the inside--like over boiled then thrown in the oil and then cooked too long because half the meat was gone-cooked off- and you saw the bone. My Modelo was rock solid! The table next to us had Packer Nachos--them looked good asf! Another table had big pizzas that looked great. The place was packed and the SF/Packers game was on! It's a true WI dive bar-bad food, good beer, and football.
