    Grilled cheese

    Custard is way too runny, and they can't even cook a grilled cheese all the way through. Not coming back.

    Awful experience and rude customer service. We ordered two "cookie jar" sundae's based off the menu (photo attached) when they came they were peanut butter cookies. I'm pregnant and have not been able to eat much peanut butter. I politely showed them the menu explaining how I thought this came with Oreos... they said they changed the menu and there's nothing they can do. They wouldn't exchange... I wouldn't have an issue but we paid $20 for these! That's a lot of money! All I could do was buy two new Sundaes. They also gave us two different sizes? I was shocked at how rude they were. They closed the window on us. I know there's bigger problems in the world, but I was so excited for this sundae and just needed to vent. Won't be going back :(

    I was there on a Friday evening. The place had enough seats inside and outside. And there was not a lot of crowd. I took their famous turtle sundae, and that was my favorite item here as well. I went for a German chocolate cake custard as well. It was good as well. As others mentioned, I think its a little bit expensive.

    It may have been a voyage to get here but it was so worth it! There's lots of construction going on so getting here was extremely difficult but once I got here, it was so good! The place is small but is decorated in a cute retro style diner setup. The cashier was helpful and gave me her recommendations on what to get. There are so many options! I ended up getting the Flying Monkey which was milk chocolate custard and bananas with peanut butter sauce. Sooo good! There's so many choices so have fun choosing! I doubt there's anything bad here!

    Best ice cream in Madison!!! The ice cream is thick, creamy, and oh so flavorful!! I love their sundaes and Twisters. The ice cream itself is so delicious and the toppings are amazing! I love the peanut butter sundae and my husband loves the Death by Chocolate. I've had both and love them both! I also love the decor and there of the ice cream shop. They have a cute outdoor seating area with umbrellas for shade. I'd describe the theme as rainbow signs/decor and comic book theme. It's all super cute! The parking lot is pretty big and they also offer a drive thru option. The drive thru and order window are both super efficient and the workers are very friendly. You definitely need to check Michael's out!!

    Really good food & ice cream. Innovative shakes & twisters. The fries are the golden type - my fave type. I've included a photo because idk how to describe it. They have many flavors of creams, custards, & shakes. I asked them to make a special flavor of milkshake and they did it! Thanks ! Definitely visit the drive through soon or sit outside on their rainbow picket fenced-in patio.

    Receipt and prices

    Definitely not worth the price. Hot fudge sundae was $7.22 for a small. When asked if it was possible to add nuts considering the price, the woman working replied "I don't make the prices it doesn't come with that". And she initially overcharged us by 3 dollars. The Spongebob dessert was not what it was described as and was nearly $10. Just not good food, way overpriced, and workers were extremely rude unprovoked. Would not come back.

(other staff was equally friendly) -I enjoyed the overall vibe Music playlist was really good as well,...to the point where I tried to Soundhound /Shazam two or three songs, but due to the acoustics, it proved difficult - all in all still appreciated. They have a good special every day of the week, all of which look enticing. -This was my first time here, but I will be back! -History Lesson: building was once oldest hotel in Madison (1841?) CONS: -The TP in the restroom could improve -Coat hooks somewhere would be nice (in the winter, in a booth, coats take up space)

    I came here on my last day in Madison to experience a Friday fish fry, and I was not disappointed!!…read moreThe fish was super crispy and the fries were really good as well. I liked all the different dipping sauces and the slaw they served with it had a nice unique flavor. We also shared the chocolate chip cookie, which was huge and served warm. It was loaded with chocolate chips and had some flaky sea salt on top. I think this had to be one of the best chocolate chip cookies I've ever had! All of our servers were super kind and helpful, and the food came out pretty quickly. The ambiance is really nice, we ate in the patio area and it was super cute with nice natural lighting.

The head chef Casey served us our plates and he was a delight to chat with! He puts so much love and thought into every dish. He explained some of the inspirations for things on the menu which was fun! If you are vegetarian this place is a dream with tons of options! Do not be fooled, they are very filling. My husband and I shared the marinated white beans on toast, cauliflower, oyster mushroom and pesto spaghetti. All were great and delicious! Least fav (although still tasty) may have been the cauliflower cuz it's fried and gets a little heavy but the raisins in the dish are a nice surprise and treat! Although tapas style, the portions are generous. You can taste how fresh the Ingredients are in each dish as well. The pesto was a flavor bomb of fresh basil and garlic! The drinks are also top notch with interesting ingredient that create a wonderful medley together. Highly recommend trying a few. For dessert we shared the bay leaf cake and the creme brûlée- also delicious. I look forward to returning the next time I visit Madison. Also love how the restaurant ambiance is a homage to blanches lanai from golden girls! It's a fun space with great decor. Recommend getting there early as they don't take reservations and it gets very busy on the weekend! Highly recommend and overall a wonderful experience!

They clearly take risks in the best way, and it often pays off. The only reason I can't give five stars is an ongoing issue with salt levels. On a few occasions, dishes haven't just been slightly over-seasoned, they've been overwhelmingly salty to the point of overpowering the flavor and, at times, bordering on inedible. And that's coming from someone who genuinely enjoys salty food. When they get the balance right, the food is exceptional. I just wish the seasoning were more consistent.
