It is a vagetarian dish with rice, noodles, pasta sauce and topped with fried onion. It was good. There was no choice to add meat to this dish. Lamb, chicken and beef kabob was my other item. Meat could have been more tender. But rice was very flavorful. The pita bread on the side was also flavorful. It didn't reheat well though. The place is small with may be 4 tables. Mostly I saw people taking out food.

I usually get their yummy chicken pot pie or pizza pasty but I strongly recommend asking for whatever special they have that day! They typically don't have a dessert on but on this day they had an apple pie pasty. I don't know if I would get it again. The service is great even though there's typically only one person manning the entire place. It's also worth mentioning that it's extremely small and more of a carry out place. You can take your pasty to go and sit around the beautiful capitol square to enjoy it!

Recently we were in the UP of Michigan where pasties are king and we tried the traditional beef version - I was less than enamored with the somewhat bland hand-wich! I understand its origin as a miner's lunch food but that doesn't make it tasty. So we gave the Madison version a try and this time went for the breakfast version with cheese, egg and bacon. It was much better and had more flavor than a traditional beef pie. Still it was just OK. I now understand why they had packets of hot sauces, etc. on the counter. It is a relatively inexpensive meal and it is filling.... Just not my thing.

Wasn't on the menu and I was going to order everything separately... but this was an awesome gesture and was really good. I'll be back to try the other main dishes, but so far the standouts are the house made desserts by the owners wife! Eat local :)

Bread was served with olive oil and a healthy serving of tasty parmesan cheese. The olive oil had a robust flavor to it, but I thought it tasted a little too strong. I like the balanced taste of the oil I use at home. For my main, I had the rigatoni with Sunday gravy. The dish was a meaty and hearty. I would've liked it better if the meatiness was balanced with a sweet tomato taste and a little spice. Fabiola's is like the Trader Joe's of restaurants.

I came back twice in one week and had the charcuterie board both times. Fridays and Saturdays they have an outside oyster bar. Great vegetarian and gluten free pasta. Don't sleep on the beet salad.

My new favorite boba shop!…read more I've been trying to try all the specialty boba shops in Madison and this one is definitely my new favorite. I always have issues with Ube flavoring tasting watered down at specialty drink shops however this was not the case at Dreamy Teazy. What's also special about this boba shop is they strictly use non-dairy creamer for their drinks. I am SEVERELY lactose intolerant, and sometimes I'll still get stomach aches with cross contamination but never had any reaction at their store. It's nice having a boba shop you don't have to be worried about dairy being used since most boba shops I've been to rely on dairy to make their blended/specialty drinks! Highly recommend the pistachio smoothie while supplies last ;) If you're hungry while you're there, it's also worth giving their food a try. If you're there on the weekend, definitely try the pho, but otherwise the bbq pork Bánh mì is a great classic! We will be back to try more of their food :) I went twice within a week, and with it being the first times I've been, I had a lot of questions. Every question I asked they were super nice and helpful! It seems this store is family owned which makes it even better in my opinion. The store/seating area is smaller, probably around a total of 8-10 couple tables. The two times I've gone, most of the tables were taken, but people come and go quick. By the time I was done eating lunch, most of the tables opened back up. It's a cozy and casual eating area. If you're wanting good boba but don't know if you should try it, -100% give it a shot. I prefer this boba shop over any of the "specialty" ones on state street and would recommend Dreamy Teazy to anyone new moving to Madison area/are looking for a new favorite drink shop.

A very friendly person took our order and gave some recommendations on the menu. We ended up getting the grab and go shrimp spring rolls, a taro milk tea, and the lemongrass chicken bahn mi. The bahn mi was the star and quite large. It was easy to split between two people. The bread was the perfect texture and the pickled veg was standout. Only complaint is that it's always hard to get a bite with meat and veg. The milk tea was fine, but I did like that you could pick the sweetness. Probably would not get the shrimp spring rolls again. The sauce was nice and was also good with the bahn mi, but the seasoning on the shrimp and in the roll made it feel a little less fresh than we hoped. Overall, worth a try and I'd go back for the bahn mi. I also want to try their purple sticky rice and maybe one of the curry specials. Feels like a good addition to this side of town.
