1. Hubbard Avenue Diner

I liked having breakfast today at the Hubbard Avenue Diner. The eggs over easy, hash browns and whole wheat toast were pleasing, with subtle tastes and flavors that took then past this 'standard' fare. I am rewarded by such flavorful dishes every time. The staff was attentive, and pleasant. The diner shows signs of good management. Sitting at the counter, I was impressed by the the coffee machine section (picture taken). Clean and orderly. The coffee was flavorful; I finished the pot. On my next trip, I will order the French Silk pie (made by Jason, the Pie Guy).

usually skeptical about chain restaurants. This mid west restaurant chain is one of those restaurants that debunked that perception. Good Choice of Dinner Menu obviously good steaks. Service was great. Only weakness at this restaurant is, very limited or weak selection of wines. Surprisingly Spirits...MoreSKU - Thank you for joining us at Johnny's Italian Steakhouse Middleton. We appreciate the review you gave us. We hope you will join us again soon.

Was on my way from Madison to Devil's Lake and spotted this Coffeehouse. Was in need of a latte from someplace other then a chain. Was not disappointed. Friendly baristas, wonderful baked goods and good window seat to watch small town traffic on a late Sunday morning. Will certainly stop if I'm through that way again!

General Tso's restarant is located just off of Hwy-14 in the village of Cross Plains in Glaciers Edge Square. Conveniently located and reasonably priced, the menu is extensive with choices representative of most regions of China. Preparation is great and food quality excellent. Primarily a order-take out establishment, it also has sufficient in-house tables to accommodate most visitors. If you are in the area and want some good Chinese food, this is the place.
5. Bloom Bake Shop

Reviewed By w0rkt0travel - Dairyland, USA
Whenever I make it to this side of town I make a stop at Bloom. Today, I chose a sugar cookie that was literally awful. It tasted just like raw flour. The cookie was adorable and a decent consistency, but I almost wonder if someone forgot an/ingredient(s). It was inedible. I will be sure to write another review if they are redeemed in the future. It was so bad I considered calling and telling them to try one.

No specials because the chef hadn't shown up yet? (5:00) Appetizers had capers on top but they were out of capers? Should have told us - we might have ordered something else. Other app was just ok.
Entrees and pizza were very good. Service (waitress) also very good.

This is a supper club that was revamped by the new owners who took over in January of 2016. We had drinks and chatted with the new owner and his wife. They were both very pleasant and they informed us that there was going to be a new winery across the road next year. He hopes to work with the winery to provide a dining venue for patrons of the winery and others in the area. We decided to have dinner and we were pleasantly surprised at the quality if the entrees. My husband had a New York strip and I had lamb chops. They were both very good. The prices seem a little high, but it was a very good meal. We will definitely go back.
10. Vin Santo
Overall Ratings

Reviewed By _L_Z_WI - Wisconsin
If you are into local, small places to be adventurous, wander in. It is quaint, only a few seats in the bar and a dozen tables or so. Scratch Italian food with excellent portions. The standards are amazing, but the chef specials are always a treat. Wine selection is small, but if you like Italian wine, satisfying. I do recommend trying the name sake Vin Santo for dessert wine. Lovely with biscotti. Make a reservation. Give yourself time to savor. It can be reserved for larger parties and the service and food is still excellent.
