    Interesting lighting and decor make this a pleasant place to dine.

    Being vegetarians, my wife and I appreciate when a restaurant offers meatless food that still tastes good. We ordered the vegetable egg rolls which came with a very different and delicious sauce than the run of the mill duck sauce and hot mustard. They were a crisp and hot when served and we would order them again. We both ordered the vegetable ramen which was loaded with plenty of fresh vegetables and rice noodles in a wonderful broth which was not too salty. The dish had plenty of umami for our pallets and we both highly recommend this choice for others who want to avoid meat. The restaurant is convenient to downtown and just around the corner from the Pablo Center where we had tickets for the Eau Claire Jazz Festival kickoff concert. The space overlooks the Eau Claire River just above the confluence with the Chippewa River.

    The ramen broth had no flavor, even with the addition of chili oil and soy sauce. Noodles were undercooked. The pork belly was done to perfection. Spouse had a vegetarian poke bowl which was ok. The place is very well designed and nice to look at. But broth needs work - someone in our party got a different ramen bowl and also thought it was tasteless.

    The place was very open, lots of light, friendly and outgoing. Right next to the river. Prices were reasonable and the food was great.

    Very quiet atmosphere and our server was very nice - kept checking back to be sure we were happy. Liked the vibe. The food was nice, but nothing special.

    Review Visit: November 13th, 2024 You'd have to be mad to skip this place. For the short while that Tim has lived in Eau Claire, he has always said great things about Madden Ramen. With that in mind, we made plans to visit here on this trip to visit him. After getting our gaming on at Rebbot Social, we walked the few minutes over to Madden and were promptly seated. Our waitress was quick and attentive with seating us and taking our orders and clearing off the table as we finished. Tim and I talked about the menu a little bit and he highlighted the few things he's had here before. I am a sucker for spicy stuff so I ended up getting the Madden Ramen. Tim ended up getting the same plus one of their boba teas to go with it. The food didn't take long to come out and while we were being served, I ordered a Kirin Ichiban beer to go with it. I'm glad I got the beer to go with it as this sucker was hot hot hot. Not only temperature hot but also spicy hot. Each bite was delicious but left me sweating a bit... which is a good thing. Tim talked this place up and it delivered with every bite of the ramen and every swig of my beer. The food tastes of high quality and the cuts of pork made me wish I ordered it with extra beef. It was dang good. Each bite a treat for the taste buds. For how good the food here is, it's pretty easy to pop in for a quick bowl and dip out after you finish. Maybe not for the hotter bowls but this can be a quick trip if you need a quick bite. On our way out, I did stop and get a pokeball from the coin machine. I got a Darmanitan, I think? I'm not familiar with any pokemon after Gen 2. I also tried the claw machine and came close to getting an Ash Ketchum twice but it slipped out after the claw fully retracted. Had I a few more dollar bills, it would've been mine. I'm definitely looking forward to visiting here again once I return to Eau Claire in 2025. Our friend Matt will be joining us then and he is in for a treat.

    I would give 3.5. The location was pretty good, ramen was fine. Chewy noodles and flavorful soup. We ordered the bun and the sauce was a little over powering. And I felt the chicken karage was a bit burnt. Hence taking off the stars. I did hear good reviews from others so maybe my experience was a fluke. There are lots of typos on the menu.

    What a beautiful restaurant! The lighting, the cherry blossoms on the walls and the koi sinks in the bathroom!#love The service was kind, helpful and immediate. The food was delicious! I had the Madden salad and gyoza. My son had ramen with pork belly. I highly recommend and can't wait to go back!

    This restaurant has an open, modern space on the eau Claire river. Table service, open kitchen. I went on a Monday just afternoon. I was alone. I will see you immediately. I had a Boba tea which was delicious. And I had a pork ramen which was excellent. Poke is also on the menu. I brought my wife here two days later. We had the potstickers and eggrolls as an appetizer. They were good. I had the curry chicken, it certainly was not as good as the ramen I had a few days earlier. We both had the Boba milk tea, which was absolutely delicious. I had the taro milk tea with tapioca Boba.

    Took the kids to Madden Ramen and we were all impressed! I had the Madden Ramen and it was full of flavor--maybe the best ramen I've ever had. My son got the steak ramen and tore it up, and my daughter loved her spicy poke bowl. We also tried their fried chicken (crispy and well-seasoned) and some delicious boba drinks. Everything hit the spot. Definitely recommend.

    Love the food, aesthetic, and location! They have friendly employees that really took care of us. I ordered the Madden Ramen which was a perfect combination of creamy, flavorful and spicy. It's near a park with so many seating areas so my friend and I took a walk afterwards and relaxed. I enjoyed everything and plan on going back.

    So amazing in downtown Eau Claire we went two nights in a row. First night got the French dip pizza…read more(wood fired oven!) which was great and then went back to get an outstanding burger made special by quality beef and three year old aged cheddar. Fabulously friendly young crew deserves special mention.

    Huge thanks to the staff at The Informalist for accommodating a large group with short notice a few…read moreweeks back during our visit to Eau Claire. I think we had approximately 20 people and a couple joined last minute. I know this is not ideal for servers, but it worked out well and again, we so appreciate it! The Informalist was super convenient since many of us were staying at the Lismore Hotel. Since this restaurant is located in the lobby, it was just super easy and the menu has something for everyone. We ordered from both the pizza and regular dinner menu and many of us shared a bit of everything! The truffle fries may have been the biggest hit of all, so don't miss out on those! Pizza is fabulous too. We saw elote fries, a burger, caesar salad, steak and so many other things at our table. My favorite pizza was the Yellow Jacket, which includes red sauce, mozzarella, cheddar cheese, pepperoni, and spicy honey. My least favorite item was the salmon crudo, but the salmon entree was not bad. Ambiance is hip and trendy and feels a bit fancy, but we were all dressed casually. Interesting due to the name of the restaurant, but it works! If back in the area, I'd absolutely return. Enjoy!
