Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Excerpts

We had a great family dinner at Sal & Mookie’s in Madison. Everything came out fresh and tasty, and there were plenty of options for both adults and kids. The kids loved their cheese pizza and hamburger, and the portions were perfect for them. My husband ordered the Greenwich Village sandwich, which was a great vegetarian option and full of flavor. The Alfredo was creamy and comforting, and the focaccia was a nice touch. We also enjoyed dessert afterward—the ice cream and waffle cone were a hit. Our server, Elizabeth, was friendly and attentive, which made the experience even better. Overall, it was a fun, relaxed place for a family meal, and we’ll definitely be back.

My friend had a gift card so we went here for first time. The service was EXCELLENT thanks to Carmen. She was amazing and so attentive and friendly!! We couldn’t have asked for a better server or server. The food was average. I had the turkey burger which was okay; on scale of 1-10, a 6. My friend had the eggplant panini which was pretty dry…. I think there should be some marinara or something with it. I forgot to take a photo of the turkey burger and fries but did take photo of my friend’s panini. Overall, the food was okay. I enjoyed the service and atmosphere most. I love that they have a bar and another very nice dining area. They also have a large selection of ice cream with topping’s. I highly recommend visiting this location!!

We dined in recently after this establishment (Madison location) being recommended to us by a coworker. The restaurant was fairly busy as we entered and we were ushered to another room that was empty by a super nice hostess. We were sat and other parties began to come in. Our waitress took our orders etc. After another party was seated(this made four parties in this room now) she looked at the hostess and said don’t give me anymore parties unless there are six or more and no kids. I was shocked as all of the parties in this room had kids. If we weren’t invested and had already ordered our food, we would have left. Our food came out and we tried to go on with a good time. 🗣️The food looked phenomenal! I loved my salad and the breadsticks were good. However, The flavor was lacking in some areas. The sauce on the pies lacked flavor/seasoning but it was still decent. I did like the thin crust. (The kids are pizza connoisseurs and devoured it.) The kids complained that the spaghetti was spicy and I honestly didn’t believe them until I tried it. It was very spicy to be a kid’s menu entree of spaghetti. I thought that was odd. The artichoke on my sandwich was so hard that I couldn’t chew it. I did remove it and otherwise, it tasted pretty good and the portions were big! My husband however did enjoy his meal. We never saw our waitress again for refills, check on us etc. (I’m talking like 20 minutes) Someone from a different party actually got up and went to the counter to ask for a refill. We did see her after this and she left the check. We asked for a refill to go and she disappeared again for about 10 minutes, reappeared took our payment, came back and sat it down and said have a good day and walked off. No drinks to go. We definitely didn’t have the best experience. I’m not sure if we will return to this exact location but The place was cute and clean! Hostess staff was great! The kids did get these cool stick figure things that were moldable and kept them occupied and quiet almost the entire time.
