The best time to visit is when there is a food truck, otherwise there aren't food options. I would think you could bring your own, but I've never verified. The inside is pretty cute too and has nice vibes if you just want to hang out with a drink or two. They've been understaffed on days when it is surprisingly nice and the place is nearly full outside when they open and they only have one bartender, but hopefully with the season change that gets figured out.

Atomic Koi Cocktail Lounge in Fitchburg, WI has potential to improve if they had the right staff! I…read morehave gone there on more than one occasion where their bartenders were rude, unprofessional, and ruined the overall experience. My husband still loves coming to Atomic Koi Cocktail Lounge because it's a laid back lounge away from the rowdier young local college students bar atmosphere that's still vibrant with an eclectic vibe with illuminated fish tanks and a fun cozy ambiance. The crowd is mostly young working professionals near the area mid 20s-30s on up that are looking to unwind and have fun with their family/friends. Atomic Koi is a fun lounge that has games like a giant Connect Four, a pool table, shuffle board, and darts. They also have a good diverse cocktail menu that has something satisfying for everyone from martinis, tropical drinks, mojitos, beer, and more. Recently, my husband suggested the Atomic Koi to show our friends and family from out of town a good time in the Madison area. I ordered a cocktail and the bartender claimed they didn't have the ingredients to make the drink which didn't bother me but I have gone to Atomic Koi more than once trying to order a cocktail on their menu and the bartenders claimed they were unable to make it or didn't have the ingredients or maybe they just didn't feel like making it like some of their ice cream drinks and it wasn't busy in the moment. I then ordered the Golden Colada which is a fun pineapple tropical flavored drink! If they are unable to make a specific drink but the drink is advertised on their menu they should be able to make it consistently if requested otherwise take it off the cocktail menu permanently because patrons expect to be able to order a specific drink if its on the menu. My husband, friends, and family were having a good time. A back corner nook opened up where some people left and we wanted to sit there as a group however there was super sticky drinks on the floor under the table nook. One of my family members asked one of the bartenders if she could please mop up the sticky floor or find another staff that could. The bartender was super rude to my family member and said she wasn't going to mop it up until closing time at 1am. Then my family member asked if she would at least get someone to pull the mop out from the back and he would mop it up himself and she refused. She should have politely told my family member "sorry I am unable to leave the bar area but I will find another staff to mop it up when they are able to" but it was her rude don't care entitled attitude which didn't leave a good impression on my family members from out of town. I went back up to the bar and spoke to a different bartender who wasn't busy tending the bar and told him the situation. He did fix the situation and mopped up the sticky floor when he was able to which I appreciated but he looked over it like he didn't really want to be there not really friendly. If Atomic Koi could consistently recruit/ retain more professional, trained, personable, friendly bartenders and actually follow through in making cocktails actually advertised in their cocktail menu , its a great spot to go to for a great drink and a fun place to unwind!

The waitress was quick to come get our drink orders and explain any questions on the menu, even provided some suggestions, which was appreciated. We got the tamarind amaretto sour and the orange cardamom negroni. The amaretto sour was the favorite of the two and provided the realization that tamarind needs to be used more in beverages. We also ordered the mushroom soup and the butter chicken pizza. The soup had an unexpected texture as the mushrooms were more pureed, but flavor was on point and this was a nice way to start the meal. The butter chicken pizza was everything I wanted it to be. The crust had a nice crisp and held up to the weight of the toppings.My friend's only complaint was that he wished it would have come with cilantro. Overall, good cocktails, tasty food, nice staff, and great atmosphere. Definitely want to get back to try some other menu items.

I recently tried the Aviation Spritz, made with State Line American Gin, Luxardo, Crème de Violette, lemon, Prosecco, and a fancy cherry.

I also love that Cordial is away from campus, which makes it feel a little more relaxed and grown-up. The staff is always great, friendly, and welcoming, and parking has never been an issue, which is a huge plus. Another thing I appreciate is that Cordial isn't a loud bar.
