There really was no comparison - I thought Founding Farmers is much better. For starters, the menu at Farmers & Fishers was about half the size of Founding Farmers, so I was a bit disappointed with the selection. And when I asked for the doughnut holes, they gave me whole doughnuts (ok, maybe I was a little buzzed and imagined that doughnut holes was on the menu). It took FOREVER to get a drink, and the place wasn't even that busy when we were there.
Well, enough complaining, the food was just okay. I thought most of the dishes were kinda dry. There was a Wisconsin Burger (a burger in between a grilled cheese sandwich) that a couple of my friends were going completely gaga over, but other than that, the food was just mediocre. I had the Crab Melt Ravioli, which was tasty in that it had a lot of crab meat in each ravioli. I thought it needed some sort of sauce on top, just a tad bit, but there was nearly next to none.
(Sorry for the fuzzy photo, it was dark and I was using the indoors function without the flash on, which requires a steady hand...)
For dessert, the group chose a trio of pies -- I really can't remember what kind of pies they chose. For my birthday selection, I chose the doughnut holes, but as mentioned above, I got something that looks just like regular doughnuts. Remember these doughnut holes? Yeah, that's what I was expecting.
If it wasn't for the good company, I would have been very disappointed about the food.
