34 Best Fast Food Restaurants in Madison

“We love the chicken nuggets!! Our favorite sauce is honey roasted bbq !! Great food and service our desserts were fantastic! We only wish that there was one in our home town of Wausau,WI it would be a huge hit!!“

“The food is awesome, and the staff is really friendly and accommodating! The owners, Craig and Monica, are hardworking, and their dedication and commitment to the brand will help them all succeed!“

“The chicken was fresh. All my food was hot and the sweet tea was perfect.“

“Made the trip to a locked door and phone that went directly to voicemail. This was well within your specified operating hours. Not a good way to run a business“

“Staff were so welcoming, especially with my little girls! It was our first visit and the food and service were great! My daughter especially liked the lady with the red hair. Can definitely tell she enjoys her job.❤️“

“Great dogs and Italian Beef! Fun inside decor“

“We stopped at this Madison WI Culvers on our way to Rockford today and our 16mo made friends walking around the restaurant after we ate. The manager was so nice to her, gave her 2 stuffies and meal cards for our next stop through! Thanks, Ana! We'll see you again in a few weeks. :)“

“NOT recommending Madison Mineral Point Road location. Husband ordered a mushroom Swiss burger. Got home, and it was a melt sandwich, overcooked and greasy. Not an option to return to get the burger he ordered. He waited forever the first time. Not calling either. It isn't worth the time and effort. Even if he had ordered this melt sandwich, I would still say it was greasy and overcooked. Sorry to all the good locations. Have never had a complaint about Culver's previously.“

“Great food, friendly employees, but a bit overpriced.

There is only one thing I've had issues with.. Ordering online and waiting 30 to 40 minutes before going to get my food (because I know it can take a bit to make fresh delicious food), and having my order not ready yet, even with them being slow customer-wise. It's not fun waiting for food for another 10 to 15 minutes while watching others who ordered as I got there getting their food before me. I even use their email to say I'm on my way, a long time before I am, but it does not help.

Besides that, the food is seriously good.“

“Food was ready quickly, food prepared properly. Friendly staff! Shakes yummy“

“Terrific frozen custard spot conveniently located right on the C bus line. The service is always fast and friendly, and the food comes out quickly whether you order at the counter or use one of the kiosks. They offer a wide range of rotating custard flavors, so there’s usually something new to try, and the food is solid too—great for a quick bite or casual stop-in. It’s a little on the pricey side, but the recent renovation makes the space feel much nicer and more comfortable. Definitely a reliable go-to for frozen custard lovers.“

“The food was great, fries were perfect and the staff were very friendly! I recommend it!“

“Best drive thru service I have ever had! The food was hot, fresh, and appeared as it did on the actual menu. This Burger King is by far the best one I have been to... I used to work for Burger King in Jefferson County back during college. I think the few Burger Kings that are left in Wisconsin could really learn something from this particular location.“

“I had just got off work & stopped by Culver’s on my way home to get something to-go. I was putting stuff away in my backpack & Lynette was incredibly nice & told me I could’ve did that on the counter instead of the floor. I was about to leave without a frozen custard, but she reminded me & offered to make me one fresh rather than me getting it out the freezer since she said they’ve been there from the time she made them at 9am. The custard tasted great along with the rest of my food“

“This is the best Taco Bell in Madison. The guy with the sweet mustache at the drive thru is a true professional, never have any issues. I’m sure there are many other great people on staff as well making the magic happen. Thank you Whitney way Taco Bell staff! We appreciate you.“

“Great Subway shop that accepts local coupons.

Their staff are attentive and make quality sandwiches. They have every item in stock.

On a nice day you can use the patio furniture outside the shop.

There is plenty of parking in the free parking lot.“

“This is a local takeout place. Mostly what they have are ice cream cakes, ice cream, and their little Frozen treats. But they do have soda and hot dogs as well. Not bad if you want to grab something to go. They have a lot of dessert options here. And there are some tables to sit outside and eat at.“

“Parking: Lots of spots but they keep pretty busy.

Kid-friendliness: There's nice tables to eat ice cream outside and plenty of space on the inside

Wheelchair accessibility: Should be able to roll right on in for a burger and fries and Frozen Custard too.“

“We actually quite like Mod Pizza. The subway style pizza is fantastic. You tell them what you want, they build it and the toppings don't cost extra, maybe that's even a little better than subway. They cook it up for you and you get an amazing thin crust pizza made just the way you want it. Their no name cake is amazing. We also love the marinberry lemonade. Can't pass that up. The service is sometimes hit or miss. The last visit some of the staff seemed very frazzled, lacked hair nets or control of their hair, just seemed to lack some of the food service hygiene. This was rhe first experience with that, normally the staff is very composed and tidy. That was a bit of a turnoff this visit. Price wise, they aren't bad. They are on par with just about any fast food place and the food is better than most. We will continue to visit but hopefully they can tidy up the food service hygiene.“

“The milkshake is amazing“

“Might be common knowledge but Jersey Mike’s has consistently been the best sandwich chain by a mile; just brought my girlfriend with celiac today and was greeted with very kindly and they made sure her allergy was well accomodated. And of course, our sandwiches were delicious as well!“

“The guy working the drive thru on Wednesday, March 26 during 2:45-3:00PM was one of the most kindest, and professional drive thru workers I have had the pleasure of interacting with. These days it is hard to come around people who are kind like that, and I appreciated how welcoming this person was! Thank you for a solid experience, I’ll be swinging through the Drive Thru again soon!“

“I've catered out of this location many times and they don't disappoint. This time, even though I'm a dope and entered the order for the wrong date, they still accommodated me with nothing but smiles and kindness! Cant forget to mention the chips are the best on this planet! Thanks Qdoba on Mineral pt road!“

“I work with Superior Ambulance. We just finished a call in the Madison area. My partner and I wanted to stop in before heading back to our station in Oshkosh. 30 mins to close and we couldn’t fit our ambulance through the drive thru. We walked down the drive thru and were met with the most kind, sincerest service my partner and I have ever experienced. They allowed us into their closed lobby and treated us incredibly well with their service, food, and hospitality. Everyone there was so friendly. Highly recommend this location. We will certainly be frequenting this store whenever we are in Madison next. Thank you to all who work there. We really didn’t expect any service since we were walking down the drive thru and it being so close to closing time, but we were blown away by your service!“

“I am not a regular customer of this establishment, but normally received decent service when I do order until today. I always get the same thing and don't necessarily stray away from my normal order when I do come here. I would order a 6 piece chicken/6 piece fish combo which comes with fries and drink and add our own condiments. The meal normally comes out to $21.99 and with taxes $23.20. But I was charged $25 and some change. The price didn't sounded right and asked for a breakdown in charges. The cashier proceed to show me the cash register to demonstrate no errors occurred. But it shows the original amount of $23.20 (normal price with taxes as original stated). The cashier claim that price shown is the price only for the chicken, then proceeded in trying to convince me that because I wanted a combo meal (fries and drink) that an additional $2.00 will be added. I needed to double check my transaction history and statement to reconfirm the details, where I confirmed that I paid $23.50 in the past. I do not like shady business practices in which businesses are taking advantage and over charging minorities who are primarily black customers because these types of restaurants are in black communities. I noticed that recently received PPP with an upward of $9500 for their business. If you choose to continue going to this place, please get a receipt and ask questions and advocate for yourself. It isn't right when minorities have been heavy impacted by the pandemic with health and financially.“

“I was having problems with my online order and when i called Thomas answered the phone and was so helpful! Some of the best customer service i’ve had in a very long time! He even called me back after we were disconnected! went above and beyond to help! Give Thomas a raise!! lol“

“Anytime I visit this location for lunch (around noon) it's always the same Hispanic gentleman at the window, And it should be said that this man deserves all the praise and recognition. Whether I'm the only customer in the drive through or if it is busy beyond belief, He never shows anything but a smile with genuine kindness and professionalism. Every visit through the drive through is a mood booster. I wish I knew his name, Hopefully upper management knows who I'm speaking of and he is rewarded. It is well deserved.“

“Best wings I've had. fast delivery also, and great employees!“

“I have never ever experienced any service issue with this location, Its true the get backed up around noon because of the high/middle school up the road and the nearby businesses, but they keep the line moving. The only thing i cant take is when people hog tables for 1-2 hr(which isnt wendys fault) thats anywhere you go“

“This place beats every Asian food,( my opinion) also I am really picky with food and that's for sure!
I been in Wisconsin for 5 years and half, and I love Asian food. I never find a place that hook me up and I TRY other places.... but no one beat Kato's Canjun. Their are amazing, delicious and they are always kind 😊 if you need samples they will give you samples so you know what you're going to eat. Great customer service! Great food, my veggies always fresh and crunchy, food always hot and delicious 🤤 😋! Staff amazing and friendly! My meal is always half and half,( rice & noodles), yummy chicken and Kato's chicken!!! With an egg roll they are always fresh and delicious too!

When someone ask me for Asian food I always recommend Kato's on the east town Mall!!!
They deserve 10⭐“

“So delicious!! I'm a first-timer who has always loved Chipotle, but I have to say Qdoba takes the cake for the best. I love the variety of toppings they have! Every ingredient has great flavor that is bold and delicious. I will be back! Already have been here twice in the span of 3 days.“

“Alfy is an outstanding manager at Qdoba. His leadership, attention to detail, and ability to keep both the team and customers happy truly stand out. He handles challenges with professionalism and always maintains a positive atmosphere. It’s clear that he takes great pride in his work, and it really shows in the smooth operation of the restaurant“

“I will NEVER EVER support this company again thanks to this location- it's "manager" and "workers" they cannot make food correct. Will not fix it. manager avoids customers to resolve issues. been 2 weeks. still waiting. not only is she/he avoiding me but the whole company is now it appears. nobody wants to take responsibility? thats how you operate? well. we shall see. AVOID AVOID AVOID AVOID AVOID BAD BUSINESS BAD BUSINESS BAD BUSINESS SICKENING!“

“Best customer service!!! Today there was one lady working really hard all alone (i think her name was Sheresh). She was very kind to everyone coming for an order. We should encourage and appreciate hardworking people ?? i would definitely visit again this location.“
