As you walk up to the restaurant you have an idea of what you are getting into... the steep walk down the ramp will not be kind to the elderly or children beware. Inside you will find limited, cramped seating with a bustling short order style kitchen. The best place to sit and enjoy the view is the outdoor seating, highly recommended. The outdoor atmosphere was a mix between a red lobster and dirty fishing barge. The operation is cash only which is a downer for me. They do have two ATM's on site, one of which did not work and for a $3 convenience fee you can have access to your money.
The service was a little unfriendly and not very helpful. Having young children with us seemed to agitate the staff. Moving a table together only fanned the fire. After several minutes, we were finally offered the chance to order. We tried to order drinks and food together but we're interrupted when our waitress walked off...
The kiddos had grilled cheese and chicken tenders, my wife had a fish sandwich and I went with the chicken club. The food was decent about what you would expect from a "bar" style restaurant. No drink refills were offered even when I prompted the waitress. One plus to the restaurant is the ability to feed the fish with the left over food.
Poor service, cash only, and mediocre food... stick to Main St when you are in Madison.
