Resto Review: Madisons

One of our go to places is Madisons NY grill and bar.  We have never had a disappointing meal there.  We prefer to sit in the bar area, because children are not allowed there and surprisingly, it is much quieter even with the TV's.

We went a few days ago for supper as neither one of us wanted to cook :)  I decided to do something I have never done at Madisons before.  I ordered completely from the appetizer menu.  I usually order the Madisons burger or the prime rib (I love beef!), but this time I was craving fried calamari.  I love fried calamari and not every place does it properly.  They do.  It has a crunchy exterior and the calamari is chewy but tender.  It is a little greasy, but I like it that way.  They serve it with a tomato dipping sauce, lemon wedges and spicy pickled peppers.  Yum!

We also ordered the chicken tenders and ceasar salads from the appetizer menu.  We also got a side order of onion rings as hubby was hungry.   The tenders are crispy and served with their creamy dijonnaise dip.  The ceasar salads have lots of dressing and the bacon bits are real!  The onion rings are crispy and flavorful and also come with the dijonnaise dip.

A word to the wise, the chicken tenders come with fries.  It is not on the menu, but it should be, otherwise we would not have ordered the onion rings.  Oh, and the appetizer size salad is pretty big.  One is ample to share between two people.  We had enough french fries & onion rings leftover to get a doggy bag.

I will definitely order exclusively from the appetizer menu again and share it with hubby.  I tried something new and I enjoyed it, which is what the new year is all about!
