    As a lifelong Wisconsinite I've never been treated worse at a fastfood location in Sun Prairie or Wisconsin for that matter. I ordered two Quarter Pound Double cheeseburgers with No Pickles, No Mustard, Add onion. After my family started eating and their faces got dim and unhappy i looked at the Burgers. They were completely wrong so I simply called for a refund no big deal. "You have to call corporate for a refund" I'm told. "Okay can you give me that number?" "No" "Okay well are you going to help me?" "Ummmmmm" Click She hangs up Alright thats not okay. I drive down with the Packer game starting. A employee comes out and I ask for Store Manager. A unprofessionally dressed young man with a oversized Chicago Bulls hat on looks at me like he doesnt care at all. "You have to call corporate" So I go to do so and the Manager Howls like a dog after walking back into the kitchen. I was never ONCE given an apology or told Im sorry by anyone I spoke with at the location.Neither was I offered to have the order Remade. Even Corporate refused to refund me for the order. I Threw the food into the garbage and left Ive missed the 1st Quarter of the Packers vs 49ers game dealing with this. If you have respect for others you shouldn't go here unless it's the last place in town with food. I will never return.

    Lime slushy with NO NERDS in sight.....

    Just ordered via the App and a couple issues but one of the biggest was app wouldn't allow a Chicago dog to be ordered so we had to order a second order (per lady on speaker) and make it for any other dog (which took choosing all dogs before it getting one app said was available would go thru). Then when we got food was missing cheese for pretzels and even when I asked about the missing nerds in my slushee (rt44) she said she made it and they ate all at the bottom - umm photo on boards shows them mixed thru. See mine in photo below. But that's okay since we only got 4 SHORT straws for 2 medium drinks and 2 rt44 sizes so pretty impossible to even get to the bottom of the cup......

    Drive through

    The whole point of sonic is to park and have the food brought out to you. Every time I come to this location they say they are doing drive through only. They might as well bulldoze the stalls.

    I love Sonic, but the one closest to us is so under staffed, the wait is 45 minutes or more! So we've stopped eating there.

    Terrible service, had to wait roughly 15 minutes just to place an order, and just to make things worse the food was dry.

The immediate area, which is downtown Sun Prairie was super cool and cute. Lots of shared spaces and mixed use buildings that included the building Nitty Gritty sits in. There are a few Nitty Gritty's scattered across the Madison area, but my buddy recommended this location due to convenience. We popped in on night 2 of the NFL draft, which is why we bellied up to a high top in the bar area. Nitty Gritty is more sports bar than anything, but if the bar is not your scene, they have several dining spaces inside and out. We started with a couple of beers and cocktails, and while we reviewed the dedicated "birthday shot book", we decided to stick with standard drinks...but the birthday shot thing is apparently a big deal here! My buddy went local beer from the tap and I went gin & tonic. Bad call on my part, as even though that is a basic cocktail, this is not a cocktail bar. The drink was not good, so second round I went Spotted Cow as well. All was right in the world in that moment. For food, we went quintessential bar food with wings and burgers. My buddy got the Smokehouse Burger, which is their house-bbq burger served on Texas toast. He sided it with the fries and noted that both were decent, not great, but also not terrible. Both lacked seasoning, especially the burger patty itself. I opted for the wings, black and blue dry rub to be specific. The wings were good size and fried well, very crispy and meaty for a wing. The seasoning, while present, was not very flavorful. I expected a bit more from a Cajun based rub. Food wise, it was just okay. Service was a hit and miss throughout the evening. While the place was not busy, the service was a bit slow for the amount of staff we noticed. We waited on refills and re-orders a bit longer than normal, especially sitting the bar area. This location has been here for a while and it shows in parts of the building interior and exterior. While conditionally certain areas need some love, the spaces were all clean and well kept. Overall, Nitty Gritty was okay. Seemed like your standard local sports bar with mid-level food and service. With that being said, I may be interested in spending time here for a birthday given that shot book!

Order at the counter for takeout or bring it over to the bar area to enjoy. I will say having it attached is a huge perk for those wishing to absorb the great vibes (and beverages) the Muskellounge has to offer. Moving to the food, I walked away unimpressed. A solid C with perhaps the exception being the biscuit in the chicken tender basket (a solid A). After hearing about their burgers, I opted for their special. Perhaps my fault but the burger was completely overdressed with flavors that overpowered the beef patty. On the other side was the chicken sandwich. Pedestrian. Rather flat and under seasoned. The chicken tenders were fried well but lacked salt. Perhaps I set the bar too high for Hank's but plenty of places in Madison to get your fix on burgers and fried chicken.

We were kind of shocked when out food was actually ready in 5 minutes like we were told, that's some efficiency! The specials for the day were a cuban and a meatball sandwich. This cuban sandwich was one of the best I've ever had and I really hope it's on their menu more! The meatball sandwich was also very tasty with a spicy giardinara to give it some extra flavor. We also had to get the waffle fries with Hanks sauce because it's just so tasty. Always a great option, especially if you can eat it next door.

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.
