    Patty melt, butterburger, custard
    Louise F.

    Forever #1 in my heart. When i moved to california and everyone was obsessed with in-n-out i always thought ok cool but how many of these people have had culvers before. I grew up eating butterburgers on field trips and getting free custard vouchers after piano competitions. Nothing will top the love and nostalgia i have for this place. On our little tour de midwest on this trip, culver's was our first food stop. We got into madison pretty late, walked around the neighborhood i grew up in, got cheese curds at woodmans, and then beelined it to culvers for a late but so so satisfying dinner. And now my bc remembers culver's fondly too.

    breading of the deep fried cheese curds was very thick and reminded me of chicken nuggets. Honestly if you didnt tell me it was cheese curds, i wouldnt have known. My friends say the crinkle cut fries were really good bc they were crispy but i am not a good judge since i like soggy fries. burger was pretty decent. custard was amazing. I got vanilla with raspberries and it was soooooo amazing. The texture of the custard was so thick and smooth. food was like a 3/5 but the custard is a 5/5 the service wasn't the greatest either, but i wasnt expecting much the inside is super casual with lots of seating, as it is a fast food establishment

    When you're in Madison or anywhere in WI, you can't miss Culver's, a local favorite everyone knows. My nephew introduced me to their shrimp basket, which actually reminded me of the one from Costco. We stopped by specifically for it, and the service was quick and friendly. The fries, though, were a little salty and not as hot or crispy as I'd hoped. Overall, it was a decent meal and a quick, easy stop.

    First time at Culver's. First time eating cheese curds. Our lives are forever changed. I get a fast food chain may not be a must try spot when you're visiting, but I would recommend making some time. I did like how you can customize the burger to your liking and the wait was very minimal. Since I was only visiting, I didn't sign up for the rewards, but we considered eating here the very next day. It's tough to say how the cheese curds were I don't have anything to compare them to, but we were a fan. It wasn't too greasy and the cheese was flavorful. Plenty of seating and didn't get too noisy even though there were families and a bunch of people dining in.

    Went for custard. Stayed for the football game. Amazing view. Not too loud. Very nice and helpful employees. Tasty food. Great deal on 4 pints. 1 is a little over $5, but 4 are about $12ish. Clean bathrooms.

    This is the first time I am having a meal at Culver's. I loved the concrete. I had a vanilla concrete with resees peanut butter cupp and fudge. Spicy crispy chicken sandwich was another thing I loved. I had a deluxe single butter burger and a kids butter burger. It was ok. Fried cheese curd was way too salty for my liking. The place was big and there was good traffic in spite of the fact that I went on a weekday noon.

    I actually like Culver's a lot. I thought I'd never say this but I do. Culver's is a fastfood chain thats only found in the state of Wisconsin. They are known for 100% all beef non-frozen meat similar to what In-N-Out endorses too. Culver's is very well organized facility. Workers work very well together and every each one of them does what they are assigned to do in the most efficient way possible. Inside the restaurant is kept super clean unlike other fastfood chains. Interior is very neat, clean and modern, love it! Drive-thru is busy almost all the time too and just from what I see, I know Culver's is Wisconsin's favorite fastfood chain. So expect to wait in lines either inside or drive-thru. They are known for their Butter Burgers. My burger was super juicy with double patties that were never frozen. With added crispness from raw red onion, smooth melted cheese and crispy bacon, it was one of the best burgers I have had in awhile. I dont eat burgers too often, maybe less than 10x a year. The burger itself is super juicy and you are prone to get messy but who cares. No one wants a dry burger right? Buns are soft, moist and fluffy which also is a good feature added to the burger. Fries are super crispy and super duper hot when you first take a bite, so be careful! They are crinkle cut fries and sometimes, I prefer these over classic fries. Culver's is also known for their custard. I mean, come on it's Wisconsin, America's Dairyland as it is noted on their car license plates, haha. They have different daily flavors available on top of classic vanila and chocolate. Flavor of the day depends on the location meaning one location may not have the same flavor of the day as the other and vice versa. If you want to take some home, they have pre-packed custard in variety of flavors for $4.99 for a pint OR get 4 packs for $10.99 which definitely is a better deal! I had the Vanila custard and it was creamy, smooth and had velvety texture which I admired. I like these custard more than my other similar favorite, which is the frosty from Wendy's. Frosty has more, how should I say this, thicker texture compared to this custard. Smooth and light, velvety texture of custard is what I found to be more appealing to my personal taste. Amazing customer service provided by friendly staff as they bring the food to you after you order has been placed. Also, if you do the survey listed on the receipt, you can get a free custard! My Boyfriend says it does not expire as long as you do the survey and write that number down. It can save you about a little more than $2. I have been to other Culver's locations and every one of them had friendly staff with satisfying meals. Try it when you are in Wisconsin! You won't regret it! I know I am pretty picky but I really have nothing bad to say about this particular location. Even the restroom was cleaner than any other restrooms of fastfood chains.

    "Chocolate" mixer

    If you're looking for disappointment this is your place. I don't know why I keep trying to go back. Not once have they ever gotten my order right. Tonight was an order of a root beer, a chocolate mixer with Reese's and snickers, and a chocolate shake. We got a root beer float, a cup with vanilla ice cream on the bottom half and chocolate sauce on the top half, and a vanilla sort of mixer. I have four free ice cream coins from previous visits. They never look into fixing the incorrect order and make it look like such a hassle when bringing up the mistakes.

    We wound up at City Barbeque after finding out Dave's didn't have mozzarella sticks yet, cause it…read morewas conveniently located right next door :D. It looked pretty popular with a decent number of people dining in and a bunch of others picking up orders. The girl at the counter was super friendly and helpful because I had no idea how to order lol. She made a few recommendations and even helped adjust my random items into a combo for us. Prices are fair, ordered 3 meats and 2 sides for like ~$50. We got ribs, brisket, and pulled pork along with cornbread and mac and cheese, and it came with a fountain drink. Food came out pretty quickly, we didn't have to wait long. One thing I thought was fun was the bell by the door that you can ring if you had a good experience. We rang it on the way out and got a bunch of cheers from inside haha. The ribs were big, meaty, and cooked well. The brisket wasn't really my favorite, and the pulled pork was a little hit or miss since some bites were way saltier than others. We tried both the mild and spicy bbq sauces, and the spicy wasn't too spicy. Overall, a perfectly solid casual bbq spot.

    Honestly, a solid BBQ option on the west side of Madison. I can tell I don't get out much anymore…read morewith how shocked I am by lunch prices. Not just here, but everywhere, really. I think my pulled pork sandwich, two sides (cole slaw and fries) and a drink pushed $17. That's more than I prefer to spend on lunch, but I was going out with some work friends and felt like treating myself. And it was, indeed, a treat! The pulled pork was very good - not overly fatty or anything. Good flavor. I tried the "original" and "sweet city" sauces - both were very good and not overpowering. The fries were good - a little greasy (but "good greasy" if there is such a thing). The creamy cole slaw confused me. It was a bit dry. I know, right? How is creamy cole slaw dry? I'm not sure if it's always like this, or maybe it was off the top of the batch and the "creamy" and dripped to lower parts. Don't get me wrong - it tasted good. We'll see how it is next time I'm there! Overall, a good BBQ stop. The pulled pork sandwich will be a standard order there, but I'm sure I'll venture out to some other dishes to see what they have to offer!

    I made a recent lunchtime visit to this Chick-fil-A (Madison, Wisconsin). As I approached this…read morebusiness, I was pleased to see the cleanliness of the premises along with the freshness and newness of the infrastructure. On a special note, I greatly respect any business that can proudly and prominently display the American flag - these businesses always earn bonus points with me. The drive-thru here appeared to be well-maintained and operating smoothly; however, I decided to dine inside with my fellow Chick-fil-A fanatics. There was a fairly short line when I stepped inside, so I had a couple of minutes to browse through the well-displayed menu to decide what I wanted for lunch. I ordered the Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwich Deluxe meal, with criss-cut fries and a Dr. Pepper. The young lady taking my order was friendly and professional. And, I guess it's been a while since I came to a Chick-fil-A because I forgot how many different sauces they have. The young lady asked what sauces I'd like with my meal, and I naively responded that I would like one of each. Well, without hesitation, she did in fact give me one of each of the sauces they have, all eleven! On a side note, this is one of the things I like about Chick-fil-A over McDonald's. Chick-fil-A (or at least this location) does not charge you for sauces, and I find that most McDonald's locations nowadays charge you for any sauces beyond some ridiculously low number. My entire meal was fresh and delicious. My chicken deluxe sandwich was picture-worthy, and the chicken inside it was cooked perfectly. The fries were cooked perfectly as well so that they were golden brown and lightly crunchy on the outside. I also enjoyed eating my meal while having the dine-in experience, which is rare for me at a fast-food restaurant. Additionally, dining inside was a nice escape from the summer heat, and a better option than eating in the confined space of my car. While inside, I was also pleased to see several Chick-fil-A employees cleaning the dining area so that new customers could enjoy a clean environment as well. They were hardworking, and doing a great job of keeping the dining area clean. Overall, I could not have imagined a better experience while having my lunch here. This Chick-fil-A earned a well-deserved 5-star rating from me.

    Awesome food and great customer service really quick and hot and tasty food to go !!!read more
