Our server was late, never checked up on us, and we got our food before our drinks. We had to request to get checked out because our server never came back. While paying, the person checking us out didn't say there was an 18% charge already included for tip until after we had clicked our selection to tip them. Place is cute, very spacious. Tl;dr, Service was not good, but food was decent.

We ate at this place as part of restaurant week - a place we have driven by scores of times but…read moredidn't really see it. This is why restaurant week can be a plus for the restaurant because we will return. We went with friends for Sunday lunch. It wasn't too busy. The service was fast and friendly. Two tried the empanadas one beef and one Hawaiian. Both were good. The others tried the fried plantains with guac on the restaurant week menu. Very good. Three got the roasted quarter of a chicken which had a unique spice and was a hit. I got the pork which was very thin and a bit dry. The green sauce helped. The Tres Leche cake was excellent as was the thin waffle and jam dessert - very unique and tasty. The regular menu is huge. We will return.

This is an interesting Chinese Market. The market has a lot of chinese items and other east asian…read moreitems. There was a ton of moon and sun cakes. I tried a couple of poke sticks. Pistachio one was my favorite. There were many Asian ice creams. Propitious mango was a good one. There were a lot of small food places in the food hall. I tried food from a lot of different places. The food hall had a lot of seats, and was neatly maintained. It was never crowded. Kawasaki is close to the entry of Global Market. So the first time I was there, I went straight to this place. I had a Chicken katsu rice bowl. It was one of the best food I had in the food hall. Display had some very delicious and cute cakes. Next time I should try some of that. Taiwan Street has nice pho and bubble tea. I went for a pistachio milk shake, without bubbles. It was good. But I think I should have really went for a pho. They have a lots of sweets in display. I went for a peach swiss roll and a sesame ball. Both were good. From Dumpling House, I went for a chicken and mushroom dumpling and chinese chive pie. Both were good . It came steaming hot. I think I should have gone for some of their more favorite items like chive and pork dumpling. From Nice Flavor Stir Fry , I went for a sauteed sliced lamb with cumin. Generally this is a really flavorful dish which you cannot go wrong with. But it wasn't as good as I expected. Flavors were off, and the quality fo meat was not as good as I expected. Stir fry chicken mei fun was my favorite item from Bowl Bowl Rice. It came hot and was flavorful. I also had a tea leaf flavor egg. It was just $1. But it came with egg shell. I had to peel it. Egg was slightly less flavorful than I expected. Mochi donut is the main item in Glazed. There were some food items as well, but I didn't find takers for that. I went for 3 donuts - Oreo, honey dew and churro. The flavors were all interesting. May be oreo was my favorite. Donut texture was more chewy. From S&B Hmong Kitchen, I went for a fried rice from this place. It was flavorful. Cilantro and scallion on top gave a nice flavor kick. From Poké Mì, I went for a drunken noodles as my entree. It was not as good as I expected. Flavors were off. May be I should have gone for bahn mi. I haven't seen sugar cane juice anywhere else in Madison. So went for one. I thought it was just ok.

This is such a gem in Madison. I will be back!

We stopped in for an early lunch on Saturday with 2 adults and 4 kids. We chose the hot pot option…read moreonly. They had plenty of meats, seafood, and pot stickers to choose from, but not many vegetable options. When the bill came, I was a bit shocked because the kid prices were much higher than what was advertised at the entrance (charged $17.99 instead of $12.99). After paying and leaving, I went back to the front desk to double-check, and I was definitely overcharged. When I tried to show the woman at the counter, she was very rude and chose to argue with me about my kids' ages instead of noticing that we had been accidentally charged the hot pot/BBQ price. Thankfully, our very kind server came over at the perfect time and explained that we were mistakenly charged the wrong price. The manager stepped in and fixed it quickly, which I really appreciated. Mistakes happen, and the staff handled the correction well--but they may want to consider a different person for the front counter. Customer service might not be the right fit for her, especially since I wasn't rude at all.

I sat down with my friend expecting what Im used to - I tell her we have to get a tom yum soup base and a beef broth base. They hand us the menu and... yep, beef broth, but no tom yum! I made a remark about it being a bummer it wasnt there, and was about to order the mushroom instead. But this very kind waiter overheard and very excitedly told us he'd be able to do tom yum!! For that - 12 stars. It was delicious. The beef bone broth was also stellar, i even grabbed a few spoonfuls just to drink straight up! Service is split between a waiter and a robo-water, which was interesting. You order your broth, then you can order through the phone app all you want for the table. Dont worry, you can keep ordering as you eat! So dont order it all rightaway. Youll run outta table space, hehe! Theres a small sauce bar and fruit bar and a cooler with drinks. Theres was also mini ice cream but by god we were STUFFED at the end and didnt get a shot at trying them. We ordered lamb, crab sticks, bok choy, enoki, broccoli, more bok choy, some rice, crab sticks, kimchi, more bok choy... you get it. Not my best plunder (i swear im usually adventurous) but i wanted basic GREENS today for some reason. Long winded way to say - good job Fuki!! Im impressed!! Thank you for the tom yum and fun experience.

One of the better hot pot places I have been to. All you can eat for 2 hours for a set price. They…read morehave much more food options then most hot pot places. Especially seafood and less common items ( duck blood , bamboo etc). You use your phone and click on the QR code to order the items you want and a robot comes out and brings them to you. Their broth is also much more varied then most and you can experience up to 4 broth at a time. The broths were superb and you could really tell the different flavor profiles. The only complaint was the edamame- it didnt seem fresh and was pretty fibrous- though I suspect the issue was more with the supplier then the resturaunt - hence 5 stars. Definitely would come here again.

I have always loved Red Lobster and will always root for their success as a one of my favorite…read morechain restaurants! Red Lobster is nostalgic and brings back so many happy memories for me growing up! I was recently craving crab legs, lobster, and their infamous warm buttery cheddar bay biscuits, so my husband and I took a trip to our closest Red Lobster at the E Towne Blvd location in Madison, WI. Red Lobster as a national chain restaurant has made improvements since their new CEO took over/initiative in 2024. Although, Red Lobster no longer offers their all you can eat endless shrimp offer, they have revamped their menu adding new entree/drink items including family dinners serving about 4 people and different daily deals different days of the week such as the Spendless Shrimp, Tuesday Crab Legs special, and Wednesday Steak and Lobster special. Lots of people love trying Red Lobster's new different seafood boils with delicious crab legs, shrimp, etc with delicious flavored butters for the seafood boils as the cajun, Old Bay, and roasted garlic butter! As an appetizer, we tried their new popcorn shrimp. The popcorn shrimp didn't taste the freshest. It tasted like the cheap frozen popcorn shrimp you would get from the grocery store. I ordered my favorite main entree the Ultimate Feast with Maine lobster tail, snow crab legs, Walt's Favorite Shrimp, and garlic shrimp scampi. It was delicious and satisfying! However, I chose coleslaw as one of my sides and it wasn't very fresh or didn't taste right. My husband really enjoyed his Cajun Chicken alfredo pasta! Red Lobster is still going strong but they could still use some improvements like working on the freshness and quality of the food but overall Red Lobster is a great choice to enjoy those classic buttery cheddar bay biscuits, seafood, and some fun cocktails! Red Lobster really knows how to satisfy seafood lovers' cravings but also offers menu items even for the pickiest eaters. Definitely try some of their daily seafood specials also!

She looked like someone just kicked her dog or something. She was not friendly at all and did not seem like she wanted to be there.

We sat at our table for another 15 minutes with absolutely no service at all - not even someone saying "Hi. I'll be with you in a minute". Since we felt like we weren't welcome here, we decided to take our business elsewhere. We got up and left.

I ordered a Combo E to share with my boyfriend and they let us sub the crawfish with mussels which was great! There was soooo much food. The sauce was a little bland in my opinion, so I wish it was more flavorful (cajun sauce, medium heat). We also found multiple pea crabs in our mussels, which negatively affected the experience since the mussels weren't cleaned to remove them. Great portion for the price though!
