“Our family of 14 embarked on a mini spring break trip to Madison, WI and our first stop was at New Glarus, also known as Little Switzerland. This is a quaint and beautiful town with a population of just slightly overly 2,000. Some of the items that we ordered are the cheese curds, fried mushroom, fried cheese BLT, mini potato pancakes, Ott Haus burger, and currywurst. The latter three particularly stood out. The mini potato pancakes were well-fried and crispy. The Ott Haus burger was the 2023 Green County Burger Contest Winner and rightfully so! It was exceptional especially with the house-made bourbon bacon jam. The currywurst brought back fond memories of my business travels to Germany. We upgraded the burgers and sandwiches to come with fries and tater tots instead of house chips. Portions were generous and everyone was stuffed. The restaurant isn't very big but thankfully it was a Thursday afternoon so it was not overly busy and we were able to combine three tables to accommodate for our party size. Another thing to take note of is that they charge an additional fee for credit card users. I guess it's understandable since this is a small establishment in a small town. However, for our party size, the bill was easily +$200 and who would carry that much cash these days?“

“The food is great and there was a lot to choose from. There was adequate staff that was efficient during an apparently frequent busy day. It was a relaxing and worry free cocktail and dining experience. I hope to have an opportunity to visit here again soon.“

“Lunch time. Appetizers of cheese curds andHomemade Jalapeno Wontons. Curds looked homemade and were very. Wontons were homemade with cream cheese with fresh chopped jalapeño’s in a wonton wrapper served with sweet Thai chili sauce. Mild and really good. Then burgers made your way. Service was very good considering it was around noon.“

“Walked into the Eagle Pass Saloon while on a Sunday drive, looking for a burger and a beer - and had one of the best cheap bar burgers of my life. The staff was friendly, the few assorted regulars were nice and chatted with us about the game on TV and never made us feel like outsiders in their small town bar, a common problem at many small town watering holes. We were served our drinks by the affable bartender and given menus. Me and my girlfriend had only come for burgers so we didn't look over the other items on offer too thoroughly, but I did see items apart from burgers; such as ribeye, fish, Philly, grilled chicken, BBQ pork, and turkey sandwiches. The burgers were cheap and huge. $3 for a burger, $3.50 for a cheeseburger, $4 for a bacon cheeseburger, $5.50 for a double cheeseburger, etc. we ordered three cheeseburgers between the two of us, thinking that at $3.50 apiece they wouldn't be very substantial and would leave us wanting. We also ordered some pretty standard issue waffle fries and some delicious hand dipped cheese curds to round out our calorie bomb meal. When the burgers arrived we felt pretty d*** having ordered 3 of them. They were huge; with thick slices of super ripe tomato, grilled onions, iceberg lettuce and pickle spears. I'd say they were close to the 1/2 pound mark, weight wise, my girlfriend thought maybe 1/3 pound. They appeared to be hand pattied and were well seasoned. All in all, some of the best bar food I've had in a long time, at a super cheap price. As I recall, I believe our bill came to $21 for 2 beers, 3 cheeseburgers with the works, and a big basket each of waffle fries and curds. Great deal, great place, great food! Definitely going back some future Sunday. Oh, it should also be noted by Yelp that this business is mis-categorized as a hair salon, not a Saloon/Bar and Grill.“

“Great place that unfortunately is rarely open. When it is open it's the nicest place in town to grab a beer by far. They always have a great selection of different craft beers on tap and it rotates regularly. The bar seems to be run more as a hobby than as a business and is often closed during popular times. The limited food menu looks great but I haven't ordered any because the one person working seems pretty swamped every time I have stopped. Just ordering a beer can take quite a while but at least he is pleasant and friendly. If you can catch it when it's open it's worth a visit.“
