Dairy Queen

Reviewed By shnpan - Birmingham, Alabama

This Dairy Queen is part of a mini food court with a Mobil gas station. It was very clean with attentive employees. The only disappointment was that they did not serve anything fried (chicken fingers, fries) or hamburgers. There is a Wendy's and Subway in the food court. The blizzards were good and stood up to the "upside down" test. Service was fast and friendly.

If your traveling along Interstate 10 around lunchtime and you want to experience a real down-home style country buffet, do yourself a favour and call in here.

This is a very unique place with a very charming lady owner. The muffins were to die for and the homemade cherry turnover was delicious. Great coffee and good selection of teas - even Yorkshire tea from our home county! Wish we could visit again.

Rancho Grande

Reviewed By Ronald_Peter - Paris, France

We ate here at the recommendation of the owner of a local B&B. We were surprised and delighted at the authenticity of the food. The service was friendly, the atmosphere relaxed. On a warmer evening we would certainly have eaten at one of the outdoor tables.

Ken's Bar-B-Que

Reviewed By kkjtom1 - bradenton

Ribs, chicken, pork, and all the fixings. Sweet tea, big portions, this is a true southern BBQ place! The waitresses often have to tolerate big parties that seem rude, I saw a gent ask for and receive 11 glasses of tea...but they smile through it and do a great job! The food is good, staff friendly, the only thing lacking is a good beer:)

Waffle House

Reviewed By RoadWarriorSince1994 - Oakland, Tennessee

It's soooo refreshing to have a smiling face come to the table and be concerned about you enjoying your experience instead of the norm "Here it is, Baby. Take it or leave it!" attitude. Way to go, Heather!!!!!

Not to slight the great cook. I like my eggs poached - they were PERFECT!

Denny's

Reviewed By Zlady61 - Amelia Island, Florida

I like Denny's. Usually the food and service are good and the food is cheap. Not this Denny's. For $27 for two I got an overcooked and almost tasteless salmon dinner and my husband got an equally
tasteless pot roast with instant mashed potatoes. Service was grudging and slow.

If you like fast food, this is the place to come in Madison. The place is spotless, the staff is great, and the wifi works great. There`s also a convenient store and gift shop in the same building with a gas station attached, all in one location. It`s has very clean hands free restrooms.
