Was a cool place, love the concept, it was a cool windy day so we ended up moving inside but did get to enjoy the river view for a few. Food was delicious and generous portions. Can't wait to visit again when I'm down that way.

We tried this place because it is on an actual boat on the river. And the view was tremendous. It was fun to sit and look out on the water flowing past only 6 feet away. We were immediately seated and our order taken soon after, but, unfortunately, we were never served our food. I could go into the many excuses given by our server but the short story is that after being there nearly an hour (52 minutes per Google Timeline), we had to leave to make a tour time.Service: 1/5 | Atmosphere: 5/5
Typical bar type food. It was very fresh and hot when it came out. Service was kind of slow. It wasn't really that busy and there was an hour wait for food at 130 pm. This is by no means bashing them. You should definitely try it. I would absolutely come here again. Just telling you to maybe not be in a hurry when you get here.
Great view of the River! Because your sitting on it! All 3 of our cocktails were made good. My Ruben sandwich was amazing!!!!! Both my buddys got the fish sandwich they were good as well.

The staff is great! The view is amazing... And you can enjoy a cigar while you are there.Amazing seats for the Regatta! Closes view of the boat!
This is a fun place to visit for the ascetic of being on the river and live music. I went with friends during dinner and really enjoyed the experience of it.I will say that my food never came yet they were good to cancel it from my card. My friends enjoyed the vegetarian burgersService: 4/5 | Atmosphere: 4/5Noise levelVery loud, hard to hearSpecial eventsLive music
The musician who was playing wasn't very good and way to loud. The "Fish" special was VanDCamps frozen fillet with a retail cost of $3.29 for 10. Their "special" price was $16.95, way overpriced for what the meal consisted of. Coke was $3.90 which also was extreme. I would have been satisfied if the meal was $8.99 or so and the drink around $2. Go to Madison several times a year but will be going back to my favorite place "The Downtowner", great food for a fair and reasonable price. The only thing this place offered was a pleasant view of the river.
