The Globe - Madison

Absolutely delicious food, the service is fast and the owner came around to make sure that everything was to our liking. Pleasant atmosphere with some outdoor seating available. I’ve had both the jambalaya and the Korean bbq pork and both were incredible. Great vegan options available in the form of substituting tofu.Vegetarian options: Many of the dishes can substitute tofu to be made vegan, and some come that way already.

The curry noodles with tofu are to absolutely DIE for. Like literally. I would die for them. I would die just for the change to taste them and then when someone brings the noodles out I would simply come back to life because that's how strong my urge to eat them is. Perfectly creamy. Nice, harmonious combination of all the good spices. Amazingly browned and flavorful tofu with the most perfect crispy-outside-but-soft-and-fluffy-inside texture that has soaked up the sauce through every possible nook and cranny. And huge portions too, at that. It is a very small place with an equally small body of staff, so I recommend getting here early during peak lunch/dinner hours, no matter whether you're planning to dine in or just get takeout. I wish I could become an apprentice here just to learn how to make the noodles. Seriously.

I was visiting the area and wanted something besides burgers or Mexican food. This place did not disappoint! My only regret is not getting more to try but I tried the dumplings, samosa, and Thai coconut curry. All were fantastic and I loved that I got the two sides first and I took my time eating before the curry was brought out in the most beautiful dish and piping hot. I also had a Thai tea to go and it was the perfect way to end the meal. I highly recommend trying this place if you’re in town. The only negative is that it’s a small place and they got a pretty good dinner crowd for a Monday evening so maybe take it to go. There is outside eating space but it was almost 90 degrees outside so I didn’t want to do that.Vegetarian options: Owner/cashier did ask if I wanted everything. Vegetarian so there is an option

The dining experience at The Globe Asian Restaurant in Madison was truly exceptional. The food was not only delicious but also allowed for customization of spice levels, ranging from mild to intense (1-5). The tofu tic-tac curry was particularly outstanding, offering a delightful blend of flavors. The tofu BBQ tacos were also a highlight, with a perfect combination of textures and tastes.The portions provided were quite generous, ensuring a satisfying meal. Additionally, the presentation of the dishes was aesthetically pleasing, adding to the overall dining experience. The mango lassi served at The Globe Asian Restaurant was hands down one of the best I've ever had, with its refreshing and perfectly balanced flavors.Despite the small size of the dining area, it added a cozy and intimate atmosphere that further enhanced our enjoyment of the meal. Overall, I am thrilled that we decided to stop by The Globe Asian Restaurant and would highly recommend it to others seeking a fantastic dining experience in Madison.

It's a cozy shop with a lot of personality. The staff are very polite and are happy to explain the menu should you need assistance. On my last visit they shared that their spice level scale goes up to 100(!? , so I will definitely be back to test myself. The dishes are reliably delicious, the menu has variety, and all for a good price!
