10. Anna's Pizzeria

We decided to try a Sun Prairie hometown pizzeria and it was Anna's. We were sorely disappointed. First off we got a large with about 3/4 toppings and some bread sticks and it was about 40 bucks. Now feeding a family of 4 this price seems normal. This pizza and bread sticks were not good. The mushrooms tasted as if they came from a can. They were rubbery and not good at all . We were also disappointed in the bread sticks there wasn't much there. Needles to say we won't be ordering from here again. Save your $$ and go somewhere else there are plenty of options in town.

We tried multiple times to call and was put on hold for 5 minutes plus with no response, the meal was extremely bland and the cheese cake was tiny and the tirimasu was frozen when we got it. This was our first time trying the restaurant and was not impressed at all!!!

We have visited the Johnny's in Middleton, WI a couple times & have had very great experiences - great food, atmosphere & pleasant, professional staff. We were elated when the Sun Prairie, WI location opened, as it is closer to many other attractions we frequent. We visited the Sun Prairie location for the first time this past Friday night for the first time & had the worst experience imaginable. We had booked a reservation a couple nights ahead online & had made it for 7pm. Upon arrival they did not have a table or booth ready & asked us to be seated at the bar until they were ready. While taking our name for the reservation the younger host was unprofessionally scrutinized by what appeared to be the manager for not knowing how to use the tablet system correctly.We sat at the bar, where there was staff directly infant of us but were never greeted nor asked if we wanted to order a drink or look at a menu while we waited. Another customer came in & stood at the bar, where staff quickly attended to her for her pick up order. We were seated within 15 minutes at a TABLE when we had requested a BOOTH when they had given us a preference. A table, no big deal ... but the tables that surrounded us were nothing like the atmosphere we expect of Johnny's... there were kids running around, the table next to us was beyond loud & obnoxious. We were really looking forward to going out, as we don't do this very often, and here we cannot even hear each other across the table. We were greeted by out waitress (the only positive part of our evening). She was attentive & we shortly ordered out food. We were served the salad & bread & shortly later our meals came. We have never been disappointed in Johnny's cuisine but we were mortified at my boyfriend's steak (22oz). He had ordered it medium rare...this thing was beyond red/pink. We sent it back to the kitchen & within 5 minutes the manager brought his plate back out with the few pieces of steak he had already cut up as well as his original steak. Within one bite, it was clear they had MICROWAVED the damn plate. The potatoes with steaming hot, the plate itself was hot & the steak was no longer freshly cooked but dried out and had the "microwaved" taste. This was the worst dining experience I have ever been a part of.... I could continue on about how the manager disrespected her staff and how the 3 other tables around us also had incorrect order or something wrong with their meals, but I think I have made my point...We hope to return to Johnny's in Middleton, as we know we won't be disappointed, but as for the Sun Prairie location, we will NEVER step foot in there again. Absolutely disappointing...Courtney - thank you for taking the time to write your review. I am very disappointed to hear about your recent experience and sincerely apologize for a very unfortunate evening. You definitely did not receive the true Johnny's experience - sounds like the exact opposite. I can assure you I have taken your review to management and it is being handled internally in hope something such as this does not happen again. This is being addressed with management, servers, hosts and culinary team. A lot of misses on our end. I do not want this to be your lasting impression. If you could reach out to me directly at [email protected] so I can make it right I would greatly appreciate. Again, my sincerest apologies. Thank you in advance.

I visited with co-workers while on a business trip. The location and atmosphere were great. The food is high-end, but the restaurant did not feel pretentious. We decided to get a range of dishes and share amongst ourselves. We tried the following dishes:- Dates: Stuffed with chorizo and covered in a chili sauce. They were delicious, a great balance between sweet and spicy.- Meatballs: Very tender, but just a meatball at the end of the day.- Foie Gras Mousse: Not my thing. I have a moral objection to the process of creating foie gras, so this may have colored my opinion.- Parisian Gnocchi: Fantastic! The most tender gnocchi I have ever eaten!- Beets: Beets are not my thing, the pickled carrots were very tasty.- Wagyu Ribeye: The steak was good. I'm not a fan of steak fat so I felt like I was discarding more than I would like at this price point. The lentil and vegetable salad it was served over was wonderful. Great flavor with just the right amount of acid.- Scallops: I could not try them due to allergies, but my colleagues said they were great.- Sicilian Sfingi: Interesting dish. It is an Italian doughnut in a chocolate sauce. The doughnut was dense with a touch of cinnamon flavor and not very sweet, and the chocolate sauce was on the dark side so did not add much sweetness. The overall dish was very rich.The staff was fantastic and knowledgable. Our waiter was more than happy to discuss the menu and make recommendations.

We recently walked over to Glass Nickel to get a pizza "to go". Hadn't had pizza in a very long time and was unfamiliar with how everything worked. The staff were very helpful in guiding me to the "right" pizza for me and the wait was accurately estimated by staff. We went home and thoroughly enjoyed our "cheeseasaurus" pizza - this is cheese pizza with 3 ingredients of your choosing. What's really telling is that we ordered a large pizza and between my husband and I, there was only a quarter left for the next day's breakfast. We'll definitely be back! Hello, thank you for your review, I'm so glad your pizza was delicious! Come on back again and see us soon!

This restaurant is extremely fresh. Fun decor and excellent food. Haven't had that fresh of ingredients on a pizza ever.Creative pizza menu that encompasses many fresh foods that taste like they came right of a local garden.The Night of Loas Pizza was exceptional.A bit of spice and ingredients one would never think of putting on a pizza.Many wine and local brewery beers to select from as well.Peach bruchetta was very tasty and peaches were full of flavor and juicy.Glad we tried it.Highly recommend this restaurant.
