Enjoy memories of the 70's while listening to music and eating awesome food. You will make great memories here starting from browsing the memorabilia on the walls to enjoying one of Hayley's craft cocktails from the full-service bar. See how many of the LPs mounded on the wall that you can remember. Check out all the signs and artist paintings of famous people. Check out the gorgeous back deck and outside dining. Munch on appetizers like a giant Bavarian Pretzel with your choice of cheese or spicy mustard to crispy Brussel Sprouts. The Blackened Mahi dinner with asparagus and Chef Potato is delicious. When we are in the area again, we will for sure visit Mad Love. read more

Everything is fantastic. From the name our front, to the decor inside, and the service. Top notch all the way around. We went to Madison for to check out the waterfalls and needed something to eat. My girlfriend found this place and said let's try it. We walked in and it you're hit with a decor of music for all tastes. Looking at the menu I was drooling. I was hoping the food would match the decor and they knocked it out of park! Espresso Martini, rock n roll shrimp to start and finished off with the blackened Mahi tacos. I cannot wait to get here again. Definitely recommend, tell them Steve sent you. You won't get anything but just tell them I sent you. read more

Good food and service. Server was helpful with selections from menu too. Would go back if in the area.

Lunch service today for our business was spot on. Our table 6 was offered inside our outside seating. As a business lunch we chose inside and were in a central room off kitchen that allowed us privacy and quiet. Fish tacos were had by most of the team they enjoyed then thoroughly. I had the Freebird. Fries were hit and miss but the bbq chicken slaw was delicious. Nice tang in the slaw. Nice salads too. Food was prompt and drinks refilled quickly. Would recommend for lunch and will be back. read more

I will have to say that out of all the places that I visit during my travels, this has got to be the best place to eat chicken wings in the state of Indiana. The vibe is so cool and the atmosphere is so fun. The beer is good and cold and they have local breweries on tap. I would highly recommend sitting up at the bar so you can chat it up with Haley. She was so friendly and very welcoming. If anyone is looking for a good place to eat in downtown Madison, I highly recommend this joint. read more

When Mad Love is open, we want to eat here! The salmon and the burgers are delicious w some of the best sweet potato fries either of us has ever tasted. And the marshmallow Dip is crazy good. We returned for Italian night and shared chicken parmesan and lasagna. WOW! I will get their italian margarita every time from now on. read more

My mom and I were visiting Madison and stopped into MAD LOVE when our original restaurant choice was too busy. It looked like this place was busy too, but we were seated right away. There were a couple different dining areas, a bar, and outdoor covered patio, so they can fit a lot more parties than it seems from the outside! The decor was really fun and the staff were friendly and helpful. We split a giant bavarian pretzel to start and then we each got the special of the day, which was a chicken salad sandwich on a croissant, kettle chips, and some pasta salad. Everything hit the spot! The pretzel really was giant and came out hot! The sandwiches were good and I really loved the pasta salad. There's plenty of street parking surrounding the restaurant and I really appreciated that we could pay at our table using the QR code printed on the receipt. read more

What a find!!! We were so happy to follow recommendations and had dinner Wednesday night (Italian night)..Patty, the hostess was adorable, music old school Sinatra, wait staff great, food delicious! (I had the Mahi). The decor was amazing!!!Four of us from Carmel Indiana visiting to hike, etc. Consensus....we will go back the second night. Thursday we had to wait for a table, (and think we took backseat to a couple tables of locals) Hostess was certainly no Patty. We were seated under a fan going full blast.... And it was chilly. We asked to have the fan turned down, or off...we were told she couldn't "reach it". We would have been extremely uncomfortable, so we left. I'm leaving my 5 Star because our first night was sooooo awesome. (But what a difference a day makes!!!) we went down the street to Reds and had a spectacular meal!!! read more

OMG. I had seen posts regarding this spot. I am so glad we went. Pure accident that it was Italian night. (Hubby is Italian) I ordered the special. Ginger Mahi Mahi so good. Great flavors. Right amount of garlic in the potatoes and perfect char on the asparagus. Server was friendly, knowledgeable and seemed to enjoy her job and customers. Can't wait to go back -the place is so cute. Well decorated. read more

What a fantastic dining experience we had at Mad Love! A restaurant that we would have never tried if our old tried and true favorite restaurants were open! The spaghetti Mason had was outstanding, my salad was to die for and we both had margaritas that were absolutely the best I've ever tasted! Staff was so friendly and nice! Will not take groups of six or more because it's actually a converted older home. Well worth trying out! read more

We have a group of friends that meet every Wednesday and we like to try different places to get together and talk and eat. Every place that we have been to will accommodate us and put us together a one table. But not this place, we moved a couple of tables together and was told we can't do that. Ok, so you know what WE WON'T BE HERE AGAIN!! read more

Good food and service. Ordered food to go so idk much about the ambiance but food was great.

Stopped here for lunch with my brother and mother. My brother recommended this restaurant. The service was friendly and very attentive. The prices are very reasonable. The food was very good. My brother and mother loved the hamburgers. The atmosphere was interesting. Lots of art and unique style of decor. The noise level was high, but I still enjoyed my time there. I look forward to visiting this place again. read more

Long story short, we took shelter in their basement when the tornado hit; much appreciated! The food was amazing, one of the best bacon cheeseburgers I've had in a long time! The fries were also seasoned to perfection and crispy. My coworker had the chicken with sweet potato fries and she really enjoyed it. Service was top notch and the vibe is amazing! I will be back! read more

First time and gotta say I looked it! Good cocktail and food. Love the decor and atmosphere!!

We only had the pretzel and pints. However, it's a really chill vibe with great outdoor space. And the staff not only seems to enjoy working there but they seem to enjoy each other. Made for a great stop on a much needed weekend escape. Thanks y'all. read more

Popped in with my pup today after visiting a nearby state park, and Mad Love was the perfect place! Their patio, when open, is dog friendly, and they were so kind and loving to mine while I had lunch. Not only did they get him a water bowl with fresh water, he also was given treats and pets. Cannot thank the staff enough for being so friendly and warm! Overall, my smash burger and Moscow mule were both fantastic, and I cannot wait to get back! Thanks so much! read more

MAD LOVE eat + drink - delicious chicken spinach wrap, fries not so so the staff is wonderful & perky as ever the ambience - Burgers Near Me - Madison, Indiana

Really cool vibe, great food choices and preparation and presentation were above that of traditional American fare.

Had a party of 6 walk in, we were seated in about 20 minutes, which is basically the time they told us the wait would be. The staff were friendly and attentive, the food was great and served in a timely manner. No complaints from anyone of us. read more

Food. Service. Ambiance. That's all you need to day, but I will say the food is top notch in any are let alone the Madison Indiana location. The service at the bar was wonderful. We had our food quickly, and it was so tasty there wasn't even anything left to take a photo of. We had just finished a 6 mile hike prior to hitting the Madison downtown area and it was 2:30 and everything was packed deep with tons of wait times and lines, but since this place was just a bit further down the stop it wasn't as packed. Seared right west, most amazing beer, food and service. I'm he more people that go to this gem the busier it will get, so enjoy it while you can! Yum! read more

I was sceptical about all the great reviews for Mad Love but, WOWZERS!!! Excellent food, great staff, fun vibe! I absolutely LOVED lunch today! I had shrimp, cheese grits, and asparagus. They were all way better than I expected! My husband had the club sandwich with fries. The sandwich was loaded with thick cuts of meat and real bacon. He loved it. Plus, they offer Coke products and really good tea. Too many restaurants have Pepsi. We are on the patio out back. It was a perfect day for being outside. Check out the bathroom closest to the patio. SO FUN! You can't say that about most bathrooms. We live 2 hours away but we'll be back as often as possible. It's worth the drive!!! read more

Loved the food , the service was fabulous and the restaurant decor was so cool and the Expresso Martini was delicious

After a scenic tour of Madison, we weighed our options and chose MadLove! It is a very eclectic experience, with great food and fun servers. Hailey took great care of us and the drinks flowing while we devoured the pretzel, a mushroom swiss burger with onion rings and a smash burger with brussel sprouts. Everything was ample in portion and very tasty! We hope to return to this place soon! read more

Great restaurant in historic Madison, Indiana! Great vibe, bar with awesome 80's music playing in the background. Our server Kyla was the bomb, attentive- knew the menu inside and out. Ordered smoked Buffalo wings - flash fried- dang they were tasty, great smokey flavor along with a very tasty Pretzel with beer cheese. Hidden Gem, we will come back next time we visit Madison. Kyla should be employee of month- great server! read more

My wife and I got the Mac N Cheese with grilled chicken which was pretty good. To my knowledge the only restaurant that has a better Mac N Cheese with chicken is 'The Eagle.' The service was very fast and friendly with everything from sitting down to leaving. We would definately come back here to eat. read more

Fun spot to grab a good burger, good hot fries and some fries smothered in delicious cheese chased down by sweet tea. Lots of nice drink options. Friendly staff and quick attentive service in a quaint room in the back with albums on the wall and quirky signs beside some music artist art work. Look for the fun sign out side and come on it.

We ordered the specials, a chicken spinach wrap for my wife and a cod sandwich for me. Along with a couple drinks, a raspberry margarita and a bud light. Cool musical theme through the restaurant. My wife loved her sandwich. I was a bit disappointed because I felt like the fish was too much like a breaded frozen fish I could get at the local grocery. The homemade tartar sauce couldn't makeup for the fish. Source a better cod patty and give the sauce something to complement . Very good service and I will have to give them another try when we are back in Madison. read more

Stopped by here for a late lunch/early dinner on a Thursday afternoon. What a great place! Loved the music and the pop art that graced the walls with some of the best musicians from our lifetime. They played 80s music mostly, not too loud but just right to be able to converse. Our server Hailey was friendly and efficient. Her recommendations were spot on. We started with the giant pretzel to share ... best I've ever had! The stone ground mustard was perfect! We asked for seconds on that!! We both had burgers which were fabulous as well. Good selection of beers and full bar. The hostess/ owner? was gracious and welcoming. Would definitely spend a lot of time at this establishment if we lived nearby!!! read more

We absolutely fell in love with Madison Indiana, and MAD LOVE was one of the first impressions. Everything in Madison is "hometown," so everyone knows everyone. Mad Love was a quaint little restaurant, and then the server arrived. Super busy, but made us feel like we were the only people in the world. Stopped by to make sure drinks were topped off and asked us if there was anything he could help sway one way or the other. Then the food came to the table. Unbelievable flavor packed into just one plate! My wife got the Hey Girl! and I ordered the Smashed Love Burger. We shared, and I can't tell you which one's better - they both rock. And the local amber ale is worth the drive just to have another - New Madison Amber Ale. You'll love it! read more
