We traveled to Wisconsin for our daughter's wedding. They live in Jefferson. The day after the wedding we looked for a place to eat and The Looking Glass caught our attention. There were 7 of us and we first got a regular booth and two ladies sitting in the large booth was gracious enough to trade. Our Server/bartender was Matt, later we found out he was the owner. This man not only makes mean drinks, he was fun, funny, all while maintaining a professional demeanor. The food was absolutely AMAZING, even though Matt threw mine away thinking I was done when I asked for the check 😂 no worries because he had an entirely new one made for me to go!! Not only did we LOVE the restaurant, it also confirmed us wanting to move to Janesville!! See you in about 2-3 years, gotta do the logistical stuff, and don't worry I will always have the pink hair!! Thank you Matt and Mrs Matt for making this our new soon to be home and...

We sat at the bar. I had a blackened shrimp wrap. It wasn't on menu but they had blackened shrimp and wraps. The bartender said yeah they'll make that for you. They did and it was yummy. My friend had a burger and it looked amazing. Waffle fries were good. I asked a lady next to me about the ramen special because that's what she ordered. She loved it but it was a spicy one so thought better of ordering that. She said they have aramen special on first Thursday of every month and it's always authentic and always good. We'll be back for that. The ramen was 15.99 but sounded well worth it. Menu prices were not outrageous. The two of us has dinner and each had a cocktail for about $40 without tip. We always overtip when service is good so don't want to include that. Service was good and friendly. Patrons were happy and seemed to be kid friendly for bar atmosphere. We will be back, probably on the first Thursday...

I'm not usually one to complain about bad restaurant experiences. I understand people have off days. unfortunately after the experience I had at the looking glass today I felt the need to post. I arived at the looking glass with two friends, and we were sat immediately and we had waters brought to the table but we still needed a few minutes to look over the menu. after 10 minutes go by no sign of our waitress and two new customers were sat at the table next to us. another 10 minutes still no sign of our waitress and the two customers that came in 10 minutes or so after us now have had there drinks and food orederd. 10 minutes later the two customers have now been served their food and at that point we were so upset we decided to leave . I know I should have atleast brought this up to the manager but I honestly just...

Food was great. Service was excellent! Chicky had perfect timing & was very accommodating & pleasant. The pickle fries were seriously the best I ever had! The pickles were quality & the breading was just fantastic! Cheese curds were amazing as well. Not just the run of the mill ones, either. The breading made them so much tastier than average cheese curds. Buffalo salad on point. The Reuben was a bit bland but nothing to complain about it was still good. Overall an excellent experience & we will definitely be back!

They have a gluten-free option, which is always a plus. Menu has lots of tasty options such as sandwiches, burgers, wraps, and quesadillas. My one complaint was that the waitress did not write down our order. I have a couple of food allergies, so I asked for some changes. I knew food was going to come out wrong, and sure enough, it did. They were great about getting a fresh one out and didn't charge me. A pet peeve of mine is when they don't write down your order. Food was tasty. Looks like a fun place.
