“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!!“

“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“

“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. :)“

“Matthew greeted us warmly after our Marshall’s run for work shirts(MCV Salon-Sun Prairie).

Two burgers, a shared large fries and a couple of fountain drinks will keep us satisfied for the rest of the day.

You have got to try their malt vinegar on fries!

Yums & Welcomes made our day.

“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.“

“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.“

“Excellent experience at the drive-thru it was a young African-American male working the drive-thru window I can hear his smile through the speaker his suggestions were perfect my order was correct the food was hot and delicious I even called back and spoke to the general manager to tell her about my experience“

“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.“

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

“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.“

“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“

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

“Food: Got the fish sandwitch, shrimp, and macaroni. All very good!
Service: I talked to one of the employees. He was very nice to me! It was my first time at any Popeyes and he thought that was so nice!
Atmosphere: It looks nice inside!“

“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.“

“Absolutely amazing experience here! Food was done quick and tasted phenomenal. My friends and I were hosted by Bernie I don’t quite remember but he was amazing. It was around 1-2 in the morning and his energy and love for the job was something else, the atmosphere was outstanding my friends and I are most definitely making our way back there especially if our friend Bernie is helping us. Great job!“

“Hot, fresh, more than normally flavorful ingredients, friendly, helpful--and one of the very be$t deal$ on State Street!“

“This place is ALWAYS busy when we go. We sit outside, even in January (in the car) to eat before we drive away. They are never without a customer for more than a few minutes. Line out the door sometimes. Hopefully people take notice of how ridiculously kind the workers here are. Super nice family atmosphere. We will
always return.“

“This is my favorite pizza place in the entire world! I love their pizza, I love their crust, I love their fresh ingredients, and I especially love their no name cakes. Every time I'm in Madison I make a stop here because it's my favorite place in the country to get pizza. Very good service as well, very friendly employees :)“

“It's a small location, not for dining in, only takeout and delivery. But so far, after about 2 dozen pizzas ordered, they have not disappointed me. They have not yet gotten an order wrong, over or undercooked it, or significantly deviated from the quality and timeliness that I value. All of the employees I've interacted with have been not only polite, but pleasant to talk to as well.“

“The milkshake is amazing“

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

“I LOVE this place. A HUGE shoutout to the crew. I have had only positive interactions and the service is consistent and efficient. They know how to run the place. The food is hot and delicious. There is a wait for chicken but it’s so worth it, be patient.“

“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 am allergic to soy and can’t have the bread. He recommended a salad. OMG! Even if I could have soy, the salad was fantastic! It was so fresh and made so well! Thanks!“

“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!“

“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!“

“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!“

“Counter help was awesome. Food was prepared to my liking, received order in under two minutes.“

“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⭐“
