“We Decided to try today while out on a motorcycle ride. We Arrived and walked in and were immediately greeted by staff. The atmosphere was nice and friendly. The staff was friendly. We ordered our drinks and food. We got the Prime Rib Sandwich with onion rings and the Philly Cheesesteak sandwich with fries. Both of the sandwiches were amazing. Very tasty and juicy upon first bite to the Last bite with the right amount of meat and vegetables/mushrooms with it. The fries were just right...not to crispy. The onion rings were a tad overdone and really crispy. Overall the food and drinks were 10/10. We will be back.“

“great food, and even greater people“

“Grabbed a quick bite before event. Food was okay. Service was fine but bar can get busy which slowed things down. As it got busier seemed like hostess was losing track of which tables in bar area were actually open or not because you had to leave your table to go to the bar to order.“

“Amazing fish tacos today!!“

“I’m perpetually impressed with the quality of food at Dextie’s. The staff is like family. Incredibly professional, personable, and friendly.“

“Great Burgers“

“Best Wisconsin Fish Fry ever! I wasn't going to to write this review because I'm kind of selfish and don't want to ever stop by Wilson's for another Friday Fish Fry (service began at Noon) and learn that hundreds of people read my review and finished all the fish before I arrived. Excellent fish. Tasty seasoning. Five large pieces with fries and coleslaw under $20.“

“the best chicken wings around . period. mmmmmmm“

“We live in Northern Wisconsin and ate here on a trip to visit family. The food was outstanding, the waitress Jacyln (not sure of spelling, sorry!) was very attentive and took care of us in a timely friendly fashion. The atmosphere is casual, which we like because we don't dress up much! We are so happy we found this place and will be sure to return next time we are in the area. OUTSTANDING SERVICE AND FOOD.“

“Came in a couple weekends ago with my son. The food was amazing. We both got the pull tab burgers and cheese curds, and would return to eat here again. Unfortunately, the service during our visit was poor. When we arrived, it was not full/busy, but it got busy shortly after we arrived. Despite sitting front and center at a hightop table, we received our sodas and then were ignored for about 20 mins. I asked twice, 2 different waitresses, in that time period to order. Both waitresses walked by us multiple times, and helped other/larger tables that arrived after us, first instead of us. I finally asked what looked like a manager if he could help me, and he didn't, but he got a 3rd waitress to help. My son and I intended to dine in, and also ordered 1 addtl order to-go. The kitchen brought all 3 orders out in stryofoam in a plastic bag, so my son and I ate from to-go containers at the table. Despite the fact that the service was annoying, I'd try again since the food was so good. Maybe it was an off day?“

“Just had my son's wedding reception here and it was absolutely wonderful! The staff was so accommodating, very friendly, and oh so helpful. The guest also commented on the friendly service and the beautiful venue site. Thank you to the coordinator Sydney and the bartender (her name slips my mind at the moment), and Nancy. If I ever have a need for a venue again I will know where to go!! I will certainly share my experience with others Iknow. Thank you so much for making our wedding venue absolutely perfect!!“

“What a great place to hold a meeting. If you time it right, after the meeting, it’ll be time to grab a pitcher of Spotted Cow and maybe a bratwurst. I love the service at the brat stand. They were very specific that we shouldn’t bother tipping them because the tips went to the organization and they didn’t go to the actual people working the stand. The beer is cold. The food is prepared fresh. The service is exceptional and the views are magnificent. There is free entertainment and apparently Friday afternoons are open Mic. That may be an option on other days as well.“

“Always have an amazing time!“

“One of the best meals I’ve had in a long time! My husband and I had a great date night. Fabulous meal, service and atmosphere.“

“Food was yummy!! I got the tipsy burger. Really like the tipsy sauce! Cheese curds were good. Kids also liked their meals. Food comes quick!“

“Excellent service and a great atmosphere“

“Absolutely Delicious! Every single item was so good. Get the cheese curds, for sure! Yum!“

“My group of about 14 people came for the fish fryI I had the walleye deep fried with sweet potato fries. they were great the brandy old fashion which was all great. Service excellent. It was somewhat loud but bars a always loud“

“Great food but the best part of the dining experience was Ian. Please give him a raise. Spoke to him only a short while and he is an absolute sunshine. Came in with a huge smile and such a happy attitude!! Thank you Ian truly for making something so simple so so special. If Ian is your waiter you are truly fortunate. Treat him right!“

“Hayley is amazing and makes a stiff drink!!“

“Best bar in madison!! :) cheaper food n drinks! And the air conditioner works! Plus right there“

“Excellent service and fish fry while watching the packer game. A true gem with great food. They also have a fantastic Reuben.“

“Amazing service, food & drinks every visit.“

“Visited Madison for homecoming weekend and wanted to say I was so impressed with this new bar in town! I wanted to gather a potentially large group of women I went to college with and the owner ( also a Badger alum ) was more than accommodating and communicative! They have a large space upstairs to host up to 300 people! They appear to have a full calendar of fun events - and we saw they had karaoke one night as well !!! I will definitely keep them in mind for the future! Love Moon Bar !“

“Came here on the recommendation of our Uber driver. Great call! Great place. The staff was fantastic. Maggie and Tony were especially welcoming to us Bama boys. I can’t say enough about the hospitality shown to us. The burgers and curds were phenomenal. Not sure if I’ll ever get back to Madison, but I’ll certainly drop in again if I do!!“

“We hired state street brats catering for an employee all staff meeting and we were beyond thrilled with their services. The food was hot, plentiful and delicious. I was more impressed with the customer service of their team. Everyone was friendly and super accommodating! They went out of their way to ensure everyone was able to eat. They were even able to accommodate a gluten sensitive meal on the fly. And they did it without making anyone feel inconvenienced. We also have a very old building and experienced some issues with circuits being blown and the SSB team worked diligently to ensure our timeline and the service experience were not impacted. I can't say enough good things about the team. We had an absolutely fabulous experience and would definitely recommend to others.“

“The Weary Traveler was a nice little joint we found during our recent vacation in Madison Wisconsin. It had a menu of sandwiches as well as other assorted main courses. I started with an appetizer of a Wisconsin Meat And Cheese platter which came with an assortment of artisan meats and cheeses as well as some crostinis. There was also some mustard and preserves as well. This was all really delicious with the bleu cheese being my personal favourite. I tried fome baked buffalo wings for my main course which were fairly large and had decent flavour. Not the greatest wings I've ever had but quite good all the same. My wife really loved her Rueben sandwich as well. The decor was really unique and the service was excellent. It definitely fed these weary travelers quite well.“

“The atmosphere is comfortable with friendly staff. The food is tasty with wonderful serving sizes; you don’t leave hungry.
I was impressed that they make their own potato chips fresh. My mother-in-law is allergic to fish and they made sure to switch out the oil and make her a batch of chips with no cross-contamination of fish. A very appreciated accommodation“

“the *manager vanessa* is rude. the bartender acts like a child. my friend and her friends were treated horribly. the owner called my friend a "white b!tch" and the bar tender threw his dirty wet bar rag in my friends face.“

“Best Madison dive bar, hands down!“

“The appetizers were great and the server was amazingly friendly and attentive!“
