Ollie's Madison

This is a fantastic place! I only wish I lived closer as we live in a different state. I find myself craving it months later after our visit. So far we have only been there 2 times.

The gf cheese curds are amazing!! They are more unique than what I remember cheese curds tasting like. But that’s what makes them so good!! And their ranch dip is great. I never imagined I would eat fried cheese curds with ranch but it works with these ones. Surprisingly they even taste good warmed up in the microwave if you end up taking leftovers home.

The gf pizzas I got were good. On our second visit the crust was kinda gooey and undercooked but the first one was great. “The dad joke” pizza is a really cheesy pizza. It was interesting. I love cheese, I normally order asking for double or triple cheese on my pizzas so I thought I would love it. I’m surprised that I have to say it was too cheesy even for me. Unique idea there and love the name but it was not for me. Probably was the type of cheese they used or maybe the underdone crust. The first time I got a pepperoni pizza and that was great though!

In general their pizzas are unlike any other typical gf pizza I tend to get at restaurants or the frozen kinds from the grocery store. It’s a thicker fluffier crust which was really nice.

My son had the kids gf Mac & cheese and that tasted great too.

We also had a chocolate mouse dessert. It was very rich and boarded on the side of dark chocolate. I enjoyed it but since I’m not a huge fan of dark chocolate in general I only ate a few bites. But my son couldn’t get enough of it. The look on his face alone was hilarious and worth the cost of getting it.

We will go there any time we are passing through the area.

I’ve been so excited to try Ollie’s and finally got the chance to this afternoon! My GF burger was delish and the truffle fries were soooo good. Easily the most worry-free dining experience I’ve had since going gluten-free, I wasn’t stressed about cross contamination at all. All in all a great experience.

GF items clearly marked on menu. Huge selection! Had cheese curds, burger with GF bun and french fries. All clear, 24 hours later! Other family members had massive soft pretzel, (yummy cheese sauce and mustard) fish sandwich and mac & cheese. Everyone was happy. Service was very attentive.

Amazing food! My daughter has celiac and had an amazing experience here. The cheese curds are naturally gluten free, their fryer is only used for gluten free food so fries are safe to eat as well. My daughter had the cheeseburger with a gluten free bun and she loved it.

Best Gluten free place I have found yet. I have Celiacs and I didn’t get sick. About the only restaurant that you can get cheese curds that are gluten free :) I will be coming back.

Such an incredible variety of options. I'm not used to being able to order nearly everything on the menu. Everything is clearly marked and the food was delicious. I got to eat outside and enjoy the nice weather. I'm definitely going back!

Lots of gluten free options, including cheese curds and a fish fry, two things I sorely miss at most places. Both were delicious! Plenty of other choices clearly marked on the menu. My only complaint - the fries were not very exciting.

This places was absolutely awesome. Damn near everything was safe or able to be altered as such. Had everything from fish fry to cheese curds and even what just may have been the best gyro ever. Hands down one of my favorite dining experiences in my 11 or so years of being GF. My mom was also with who is Celiac and she had zero reaction.

This place is great. Super cute with a great atmosphere and friendly staff. Dedicated fryer and almost everything on the menu is gluten free or has a GF option. Fries, cheese curds, burgers, Mac and cheese, pizza… all gluten free. It was my sons first time eating out since getting diagnosed with Celiac and he said “I feel like this is too good to be true and I’m going to get a stomach ache.” But all of us felt great! (I have celiac along with 2 of my kids)

I was told they have a separate gf fryer and the cheese curds were delicious. Unfortunately everything was ruined because they served regular gluten bread with the gf Mac and cheese even though we told the waiter we were gf, incredibly disappointing.

I ordered the gf cheese curds, gf smoked wings, and the gf caprese Mac. They give large portion sizes so I took home a ton of food. The cheese curds were some of the best I have had. The smoked wings were top tier. The Mac was good but I can make better at home for that one.

I am trying to find out what vegan cheese they use to see if my nut free dairy free gluten free friend could have a great time here.

Over all amazing 👏

I've had burgers and tried several fried sides(fries, cheese curds, onion straws). Dedicated fryer and dedicated prep spaces. A waitress told me they broil the burger to avoid cross contact for celiac. I've always felt safe eating here as a celiac!

Ollie’s is a Celiac’s paradise!! They only have one fryer and it is dedicated gluten free. The cheese curds are OUTSTANDING! I also had wings, French fries, and fish fry. They don’t have a gluten free pizza option, but they can do burgers, Mac and cheese, and a few other options GF.

I didn’t actually end up eating here. When I walked in there was a sign saying there was a 20% service charge to every tab to support a living wage. Which I am in support of. The woman who sat us was lovely and friendly. Looking over the menu it again states there is a 20% service fee on every tab and that it is pulled and divided between all staff. Again, I’m all for it. No one came to our table. Then I notice the QR code on a block with a push light on the table. You need to push the button for service or order from the QR code. I found out that you also need to tip at this point. As a 20-30% tipper that’s 40-50% with that service charge and I need to order my own food?

Left a review and was told that this at up is to support those with extreme anxiety. I have extreme anxiety so I understand how debilitating it can be. But by no means do I thing every environment needs to be catered to me.

The whole thing was odd. Pay your employees a living wage and aim for service. So so so off putting.
