Okay, I feel guilty for giving this place only two stars because it seems like a four star place on paper but.........\n\nSo the menu is great, but the food quality is very inconsistent.  I have tried  almost half the menu and have ordered the same item (brisket sandwich for one) on different occasions and had very different results!!  The pretzels and cheese are a decent app.  The fish fry is solid.  As for everything else well, ehhhh.\n\nThe wait staff is always very friendly, but the knowledge of the menu and the beer list is not where it should be.  The menu isn't that complicated and at times the staff doesn't seem to have a very in-depth knowledge of the items.\n\nThe shotgun style lay-out isn't great for large groups, but if it's just you and a few buddies, this is a great place to go and tip a few.\n\nHopefully as they become more established, the consistency will come and this place will turn into a madison staple!  It has the potential!!
