  Even Restaurant Owners Eat Here. Restaurant Week once again. And that brings me back to the good ole Stable for lunch.The service here has never disappointed me, and if you’ve read my other reviews, you know I am big on service. Our food has always been great as well.This time, we started with the potato puffs, nice and cheesy, and the Wisconsin Beer and Cheese soup, nice and beery and cheesy. Both very good. If you’re Wisconsin foodie, this is a soup for you. My girlfriend barely got a taste. It’s homemade and oh so good.Main courses were Pork Lollipops, almost like ribs, and the Kobe Beef Bacon Cheddar Burger. Neither of us shared. They were that good! The pork was falling off the bone and shredding without effort. And the BBQ sauce, which was on the burger as well, had a great flavor with a nice little spice to it. The burger is the reason I keep coming back. Between the meat the nearly melts in your mouth and the aged Wisconsin cheddar melted on top, who would need anything else? But, there is still the BACON and BBQ Sauce, both adding into it. If you’ve ever had a meal that made you feel like you were on a cloud, you know how I felt. I can’t say enough about this. I have never had a better burger… EVER! Maybe it’s the high quality meat, maybe it’s the spectacular local cheese. I don’t care, TRY IT!Desserts were a brownie sundae and a turtle pie. Brownie sundaes aren’t anything new, but this was all you could ask for in one. It had the right amount of warmth in the brownie, not so hot the ice cream melted, but warm enough that it just melted in your mouth. And the turtle pie was good helping of a fluffy chocolate cream on a crispy crust that was layered with pecans, all in a bed of caramel sauce. It was light, airy, and very chocolatey. I could have eaten far more cream than I was given.I definitely recommend this place. The atmosphere is nice and cozy. I grew up with a farming family, so being in a barn-like dining area was nice and reminiscent. This place is popular enough that I’ve seen chefs and owners of other local restaurants in it as well.I don’t give out 5 stars often, but this place has earned it.(also shared on Yelp)

  I love this place during the holidays. Food is a bit heavy but it’s comfort food. And the atmosphsere is just lovely in the old barn. We always make it a point to go there at least once while the tree is up. A Madison favorite.

  It’s always been good. I’ve had 1/4 of the items on the menu and all have been good. I’m not saying great, mind you. Opt for eating in the stable over the house as the same items on the stable menu cost more if you order them off the house menu. At least that was the case when i used to go there…
