We ate there Sunday and the food and service were outstanding. Liv was our waitress and she was delighted. There were 10 of us and she did not make 1 mistake on our order. read more

Overall the food was amazing. The clam chowder was seasoned perfectly. The alligator bites were delicious. The the guacamole pepper jack chicken and lamb tacos were great. Service was super fast. Actually a bit too fast. We hadn't finished our alligator bites yet when our soup and main courses came out. My complaint is that Pepsi zero is not the same as Diet Pepsi. I knew from a previous experience so I didn't waste my money on it and just stuck with water. But we will definitely be back. There were several other things on the menu that I want to try. read more

One of the better burgers in Madison Area. Menu is full of gems! Fries so many ways, my favorite is the blue cheese and bacon fries. Goat cheese curds are spectacular too! My son had the spicy chicken sandwich and said it was excellent (too spicy for me!) Outdoor seating and clean fresh bar at this location. read more

Came here for an early business dinner with my team. It was my first time visiting Wisconsin and there was no way I was leaving without trying the cheese curds. We tried both the fried cheese curds and the local goat cheese curds and it appeared the goat cheese was liked by most. I had a lamb burger and it was really nice and juicy. Had a passion fruit mojito. For dessert I had the cheesecake and a tasting of vanilla ice cream. The cheese cake was dense and had cherry compote. The ice cream they served was from Sassy Cow which in itself, I was told, is very popular. The portions are pretty big. It is a nice place and the ambiance suited business professionals as well as families alike. read more

Service was fast and friendly. I wish they would have offered to refill our water and soda. Very clean restaurant. The food was very good. I had the Asian salad. I am not a big fan of row seating, but it wasn't busy on a Tuesday for lunch, so we didn't have anyone sitting right next to us. read more

The restaurant was fun. Great selection of on tap beers and a good whiskey selection. The lamb burger was delicious as were the cheese curds. I had the pistachio cherry cheesecake for dessert and I thought it was fantastic read more

Everything was just.. Ok. Nachos were fine thinner chips than a lot of places - that may be a good or bad thing to you, but my half of the plate barely had cheese. And I think the $3 to add chicken got us maybe 4 total bites of chicken. Chicken bacon Avacado sandwich was just OK all around. Tasteless chicken, weird blend with Avacado, very average bacon that added neither crunch not particular taste. Gyro Fries tasted like someone just dumped a ton of feta on a basket of fries. Allegedly there was tatziki sauce and other flavors, but they were drowned out. I didn't finish much of anything, which was visibly pretty obvious, and I didn't hide my disappointment when the waitress checked in our meal, but no effort of any kind was made to ask why or try to improve on it. It was mid afternoon and not particularly busy, but it was UW graduation, so maybe all were just burned out from earlier? read more

Tipsy cow - Gyro Fries. - Sandwiches Near Me - Sun Prairie, Wisconsin

Only giving it a two star rating because the server that we had at least was good! Very kind checked back on us often got us refills. But that's where the good stopped... Food was absolutely terrible. From the appetizer to our burgers.....we could have went to Culver's and had better food.... And don't get me started on the price of everything. 70.00..... outrageous. I would not recommend this place at all. read more

Excellent burger and chicken salad. Good service and full bar. Wish they had more sides like coleslaw or chips. read more

I met some friends here for a casual dinner without much expectation. They have a cute cow-motif ambience but I think they could play it up more. Our service was just okay, but the server didn't seem to know much about the drinks, or maybe he wasn't interested in us and when I asked for guacamole (when the tacos were tasteless), he said they didn't come with guacamole, but were extra charge and walked away from the table. He didn't ask if I wanted it, but just seemed to say "no." I would have loved some! I had a cranberry frozen margarita and it was mostly delicious, but the last 1/4 was so tart, it was undrinkable. But the real let down was the tacos, which I left mostly on the plate. The beef tacos were bland, unspiced, and underwhelming. The beef was rubbery and sad. read more

We had to wait about 25 minutes for a table at Tipsy Cow in Sun Prairie, but it was definitely worth it. The cheese curds were absolutely amazing--crispy on the outside, perfectly melty inside, and full of flavor. Our drinks were great, and everything was very reasonably priced, which made the experience even better. The atmosphere was relaxed and fun, and the staff was friendly despite the busy evening. Definitely a solid spot if you're in the area and craving Wisconsin comfort food! read more

Delicious! The truffle fries are divine. I also had the fish tacos from the app menu! Very good!!! Nice attentive waitress. Nice environment. A little noisy. Not the greatest acoustics. But not bad at all. read more

Honestly, I'd been kind of avoiding this place over the past few years due to assumptions. And while not all of them were completely incorrect, when it came to meeting or exceeding expectations regarding the fundamentals, The Tipsy Cow managed to pass. Drink selection was decent. What really made me happy was the beer menu wasn't sixty percent IPAs. There was a very healthy mix of styles. And being the beer snob I am when I go out, I like having a good selection to choose from. I did choose an IPA, but it was more on the fruity, refreshing side and not overly sour, which turned out to be a good thing when it came to what I ordered for food. First off, places that don't serve a side with their entrees or sandwiches can go suck an egg. There's the censored version of that sentiment. Tipsy Cow makes you order and pay for your side separately. What really annoyed me is that this is not made clear on the menu, and your choices pretty much boil down to french fries or tater tots unless you're splitting an appetizer with others. This is why they're not getting at least another star in this review. I got the spicy steak sandwich. Which, to my surprise and delight, was actually spicy. I'm serious on that because I like spicy food, but was expecting Midwest "spicy." Nope. It actually had a bit of a kick and brought me to the verge of sweating. And they even found the spot in cooking the steak where it wasn't overdone tough, but also not rare to medium rare chewy. It was a nice medium. Service was great, and our server was very attentive, which is always nice. Portions varied, from my steak sandwich being on the small side, to the "side" salad another ordered being the size of an entree salad. For me this is the sort of place you come for a weekend lunch or to eat before catching a movie at the theater nearby. It is definitely casual due to the way the menu and restaurant is set up, but not a place I'd go on really romantic date night. Overall, I wasn't completely let down as the taste of the food passed muster, the service we received was good, and I've lately given patronage to restaurants who gave me a much crappier experience than this one. read more

Cool little lit up corner place with lots of windows, a casual bar, TV sports, nice bathrooms. Had a margarita and the best patty melt on rye, no spread is how I live mine. (Don't want a sweet melt with 1000 etc) Let me say ,.... It's DELICIOUS, grilled to perfection with the perfect crunch. I ordered 1/2 onion rings and it was still a lot. They were awesome too. Great service and drinks. read more

They simply have the best mac and cheese I've ever had in my life! They have the base Mac and cheese featuring a 3 year cheddar cream sauce, but then they can dial it up a notch with your choice of add ons! I consider myself lucky that one day I went in and they were offering beer cheese soup as a special. The burgers and tots are excellent as well! read more

We stopped here for dinner when we were in SunPraire for shopping. My husband was craving for burger and when we looked up, Tipsy Cow showed up as the nearest one that had burgers. Their website main page promotes the Local Lamb Burger, and by the looks of it he instantly decided that's the one he was gonna try. We ordered the burger, along with Alligator Bites and the Memphis Tots. The server mentioned that as the burgers didn't come with any sides, they offer anything from their appetizer menu as a half order. We stuck to full order as we intended to share the food between us. The alligator bites arrived first.. there was very little meat and felt chewy. I've had alligator before from Montana/Idaho area but it wasn't this chewy. The bites were okay I'd say - we'd probably not order them again. The rest of food arrived next. The service was pretty quick even though it seemed pretty busy. We seated in the outdoor area. It was very casual. The Memphis tots tasted great. I loved the spice... had to literally control myself not to over eat them, lol. The burger was pretty standard. We decided we didn't quite like the egg with the burger as it made everything messy and super ceded the taste of everything else. Couldn't quite tell if the meat was lamb or port or beef, as all we could taste was the egg. I being a super fan of eggs, didn't like the combination as such. We'd probably come back some other time again when we are in the area and hungry, but try other burgers and appetizers as it seemed like a promising menu. read more

Stopped by this place for dinner and it wasn't bad. There wasn't many people so we were seated right away. I ended up ordering the guacamole bacon burger. It was good. Sandwiches didn't come with fries so we had to order those on the side. The other people in my party ordered the bacon guacamole grilled cheese, Korean beef sandwich and the truffled portabella Mac and cheese. All were good also. read more

I've eaten at many of the Madison-area restaurants and the Tipsy Cow is absolutely the worst. I've tried three things on the menu and regretted eating there every time. Their hamburgers are totally greasy, tough, undercooked (even when I asked for well done) and over priced- $14 for a hamburger with no side. I'll never eat there again. read more

some of the best burgers in town. staff has been attentive and friendly. great place to take the family.

Six of us went for lunch today st the Tipsy Cow for their Friday fish dinner. The fish and fries was absolutely wonderful! Fresh cod fillets and fresh fries. So very good! I'd give the food five stars, but it goes down one star because of the acoustics. There is no sound deadening in the room at all and even though the tables weren't all filled, any talking bounced off the walls and floor so much that we couldn't hear each other talk without shouting. Please, please fix this as we'd love to come back. We planned on a nice dinner ( which we got), but to also talk with relatives from out of town. Sadly, that was not possible. We hope it will be in the future. read more

We were making a trip across the state to see a business partner, and were looking for a spot to eat. Since there are so many small towns between, we drove by a few spots that were total dives and continued looking. This spot had some good reviews so we decided to stop, and we were so glad we did. We gave our name and we're seating within 10 minutes, which was fine because they had spots in the bar to grab a beer. They had tons of beer options which was great. Service was top notch and super quick. We all ordered a different sandwich and tomato soup. I ordered the mushroom grilled cheese and OMG so good. The tomato soup was literally the best we've ever had, tons of spice and flavor, topped with cheese curds. What else could you want? It was awesome. Their giant cookies were so gooey and delicious too. I'm sad we don't travel to this area very often, because it was the bomb. Highly recommend. read more

LOVE this location!! Every single item I've tried from here has been absolutely delicious. The tator tots surprisingly are my favorite menu item 10/10 so good. Burgers are juicy and cooked well, the bacon is AMAZING. Atmosphere and service is always good. read more

Great food! Freshly cut lettuce/greens in my salad. Service was excellent. food came out quickly, too.

Went to Tipsy Cow in Sun Prairie Saturday on a date. Randomly saw the place after going to Menards and decided to try something new, GREAT decision. The place has a bar and grill vibe but the high backed booths and decor add a more high end feel. I wouldn't go as far as to say it's upscale by any means, it's a relaxed vibe, just feels luxe although I wish full booths were available, the centerpieces are literally empty 6 pack boxes (takes away from the overall luxe decor) and the tables were super small. When we go out we order food! We need some table space to accommodate that. Our waitress Carly was friendly and attentive. Her service was Superb and I appreciate how knowledgeable she was about the dishes. Appetizers: Korean BBQ Fries & Alligator bites. The Korean BBQ fries were outstanding. My hubs said he'd go back there simply for those. We compared these to liberty stations brisket fries and unanimously agreed the korean fries won!! The alligator bites were good. Perfectly cooked (love me some alligator) and the sauce was this mesquite Smokey blend that really complimented the appetizer. Entrees: Tipsy burger with a side of clam chowder and tots & a side of the Aioli truffle sauce and Lamb Burger with a side order of truffle fries. Both burgers were prepared perfectly. I didn't add anything to the lamb burger and everything provided complimented it perfectly. Tender fresh lamb it was great and really filling. The bacon is ridiculously good, I don't know where it's from but I need it in my life! The truffle fries.... Let me tell you... this place has mastered the art of fries. They cooked the fries in an onion infused oil and the Aioli truffle sauce just blends and melts perfectly together with that. My favorite of the meal. I will go there just for those fries. Clam chowder- unsure if it was made in house or not but hubby said he wouldn't be surprised if it was. Said it was great and fresh with the perfect balance of flavors. Tots were simply tots but after my hubby had some of my truffle sauce he ordered a side order of that sauce for his tots! Soooo gooood! Beverages: Guiness on tap, strawberry daquari and an old fashioned. They make an excellent daquari, like seriously one of the best I've had from a restaurant. Super rich consistency and almost like a smoothie it's so thick and flavorful. They are not stingy with the spirits both of our drinks were perfectly made! read more

Tipsy cow We've ate here multiple times, this place has hands down the best cheese curds. IMO. Also, if you want more practical, less show. The Sun Prairie location is for you. Downtown is great but the parking and how busy it is usually drives us to the sun prairie location. Parking: They have a large parking lot, we've always been able to find spaces. Seating: Every time we've went there, we've been seated right away. The hostess stand is right off the door, so it's very straight forward where you have to go. Bathroom: This place has some of the nicest rest rooms. Newly renovated, multi stall, in the back of the dining area. Drinks: I got a few iced teas, which were pretty great. Per usual. Today they had sprecker root beer on tap, which is great. Only down side was no free refills, which we didn't know until after we ordered. Food: So long story short, I used to be able to take on a tipsy burger with no stomach problems after. This time was different. Normally my fiancé complains about how grease filled the sandwiches are, but today I had to as well. We both ended up sick. Not sure if I'm losing my ability to eat super grease filled food and be OK, or today the burger was extra greasy. I'd normally rate this burger 10/10 but today was 4/10 Apps: Pickles fries half order 8/10 and goat cheese curds 10/10, we decided to get two apps. 1/2 orders. I love the curds. They're different and creamy. The pickles, to me were a tad soft, not as much crunch. But my fiancé loved them. Saying they were some of the best. So they get an 8/10. All in all, this place is turning to me a bit hit and miss, maybe it's because I don't east as much heavy/greasy food. But I do normally have a great experience with the food, but the service is always great. It's always fun to try different meals/sandwiches here. I've had the tacos, which are phenomenal. And not as greasy. read more

Holy (Tipsy) Cow!! Traveling through and stopped for a quick lunch just after noon on a Saturday. Busy - but seated immediately. Friendly staff. Nice place in the strip mall near Costco. The food was THE BOMB! I had a Smoked Salmon Grilled Cheese sandwich - if you think that sounds good, you should know it tastes GREAT! Nice chunk of smoked salmon between a couple beautiful slices of a multigrain bread with slices of red onion and cheese. Hubby had Chicken Fritters - think of them as juicy, succulent, delicious long strips of chicken breast. I could eat those a couple times a week!! Also a "basic" green salad that was anything but basic! Add iced tea and the bill came out to $33. Delicious food and definitely worth the stop!! read more

Good burgers (many choices). Located in a busy shopping center. Outside looks pretty plain but the inside and the outdoor area are nicer.
