Maddy's Melt, a half pound burger with sautéed onions, Swiss and American cheese, on rye. Served with a pile of onion rings.
Rob P.

The first thing you need to understand about Madison's is that it is a bar, first and foremost. Actually, it's two bars: one indoor, one outdoor. A lot of places have scaled back the number of beers on tap the last few years, so I wasn't surprised to see only one tap in front of me. But, it was one I liked, so I ordered a Guinness. I got it in the can. No problem, but I need to know if you're someone who likes exploring the draft beer selection. My wife's Moscow Mule was strong, and reasonably priced, like everything else on the menu here. Sandwiches are served with chips, but you can get fries for an extra $2 and onion rings for an extra $3. The total bill for 2 meals with sides and drinks only cost $28. Take that, fancy pants west side restaurants, where $28 won't even buy the most expensive main course. Her grilled chicken sandwich was a bit dry, but the barbecue sauce that was served with it was excellent. She ate the whole thing. The fries were crispy and tasty. I ordered the Maddy's Melt. I was impressed that the food came out so quickly, but I'm not sure how they managed to overcook the chicken and under cook my burger. I asked for a medium, and it was medium rare. I wasn't going to say anything, but my wife is pushier than than I am. The bartender seemed to have no issue with remaking the burger. I would've been happy if they just put mine in the microwave, but I understand why they can't for sanitary reasons. Having something remade is a mixed bag. You do get what you originally ordered, eventually. But, in the meantime, everybody else has finished their meal. The replacement sandwich came out, and it was slightly more cooked, but still not medium. I told my wife not to say anything. They were nice enough to also make another basket of onion rings to go with it. The Maddy's Melt is a half pound burger served with sautéed onions and Swiss on rye. There normally is also a slice of American cheese, but I asked for them to only use Swiss. This sandwich really has potential, but it's hard to judge with an undercooked burger. The meat tasted like standard ground beef, and was not particularly beefy like chuck would have been. It was also greasy, due to the meat and the onions. But, considering how cheap everything is here, I could definitely see ordering this again, and maybe ask for it well done so it comes out the way I want it. It will definitely be back here, since the prices are great, the drinks are strong, and the service is great. But, I will remember that this is a bar...two bars, in fact. Maybe we'll try the outside bar next time.

My original review was far more ambivalent. Having gone there several times now, I realize I wrote…read moreit in haste. The innovation in food here is unexpected and outstanding and needs to be experienced. First, the ambiance ... it's a neighborhood bar and grill with a Rat Pack/Mafia theme. Kinda cheesy, but hey, it beats the standard themes you see in bars and chain restaurants. Not my thing, but then again, they have a poster about wisdom from The Godfather. That's cool. The waitstaff is, by and large, pretty good. Had a couple of unremarkable experiences, but by and large, servers are nice, attentive and friendly. Haven't had much experience with the bar aside from getting take-out; this is where I've found service to be the weakest. Take-out orders seem to be far lower on the priority list than bar patrons. Not sure why this is; we're both paying customers, so to be treated like I'm not there is less than appreciated. But we rarely do take-out, so it's easily avoided. As for the food, it runs the gamut. You have your standard bar fare; appetizers, burgers, pizza and more general cuisine. Those burgers? MONSTERS. They only come in one size -- half-pound -- and you pick the toppings, which are generously heaped on. Six slices of bacon? Yup, that's standard. Their loaded baked potato? Easily a nine-inch potato, probably half a pound in weight. The sandwiches? How about a combination Philly cheese streak/French dip? Once you've had it, you'll never eat either sandwich separately again. How about a turkey sandwich covered in spinach-artichoke dip on a pretzel roll? The appetiers are made to share, too; the boneless wings come in a serving of eight, which is almost a meal in and of itself in other restaurants. This is just the tip of the iceberg. They have some of the most unique food in the area, and it's in the last place you'd expect. Most places, I stick with one or two dishes. I think I've had eight or nine things here, and there's a few more yet to try on my list, like the calzones and the ribs. Oh, and I did I mention there's free popcorn while you wait for your food? THERE'S FREE FRESH POPPED POPCORN WHILE YOU WAIT. This is a hidden and unexpected gem. If you haven't been, go. Now.

Have eaten here 4-5 times in over the summer of 2024. Basically, it's a decent place to grab a…read morebeer, and maybe an appetizer as long as you sit close to the bar, wouldn't recommend actually eating here though. Went Friday 11/8, and honestly, probably won't go back. Not sure if it was a new cook, or if there was a staffing issue but everything was bad. We got seated away from the bar and our waitress could give a rats ass if we were there, slow to get another beer. Food was absolutely awful. Had the Greek pizza and it was like an undercooked cheese pizza with cold toppings and dressing poured on top, basically was doughy and cold. My kid got a "grilled" turkey sandwich, and the bread was only toasted. Have had nachos in the past, and they were drenched in canned cheese. It's like some days they just don't care, definitely have consistancy issues.

Laurie, the bar attendant, was friendly-awesome suggested her favs like Greek chicken pita w/ dill sauce & tater tots. She served yummy frozen cranberry sangria and apple cider slushies, Margarita w/ sugared rim, didn't miss. Wednesdays, Mexican night, the mucho nachos you can split with a friend, 3 for 5 taco specials, must try the Chorizo Burrito And some appetizers next time. GREAT stop try when you're in the area & HAVE A HAPPY JOY DAY Have a happy joy day!

He helped me figure out how much food I needed to feed my guests. I ended up going with a cookout-style menu. He made great suggestions, like replacing regular size burgers with sliders to appeal to adults and kids, and they could get a taste of everything else that I was serving. The sliders, toppings, buns, and chicken breasts were arranged so beautifully that I put away my serving platters and set out the takeout trays. The food was delicious and a lot of my guests commented on how nice everything looked and how good the food tasted. The price was very fair and I didn't have to cook or clean much. Pasta and salad sides also were fair priced. All the proteins were gluten-free, dairy, free, and nut free. I will make a note, we didn't discuss temperature of the burgers so this was my fault, and I am only stating so that anyone else who orders makes sure to add that to conversation. the sliders were pink inside. I will order them well done next time, no pink, for the sake of them being in a warmer for the duration of the party and keeping leftovers for the next day. The leftover chicken and sliders were just as good the next day.

So this is a spot not too far from my house that is a tremendous place to watch sports. For Lions…read moreaway games I often come in to watch the Sunday ticket. I guess I never reviewed it because it was like a local watering hole feel to it, and wasn't sure if it needed to be written about. Here's why I have chosen to remedy that situation. I have been coming in several days a week during the world cup and plopping down at the bar and having my two beers while watching the 3 pm game. Every single time, through different bartenders, through different people sitting around me, through my team losing, every bit of this experience is great. Well, not my team losing. First od all, you're really not going to beat their prices during happy hour. Especially if you're a Yuengling fan like I am. Secondly, you wouldn't expect much out of it, but you will be surprised how good their food is. Look at thise chicken tenders. They are not some overbreaded tiny pieces of bird, deep fried into oblivion. They are whole chicken breasts, sliced, seasoned, coated and cooked like it matters. Without a doubt one of the best sports bars. So many TVs, patio in the front and back, and just awesome people: both as employees and customers. Highly recommend
