Reviews
"We both work evenings so we decided to try and celebrate Valentine’s Day one day early. First off, the fact that a restaurant this good allows reservations after 9pm is amazing. This is surprisingly harder to find in Madison. When you work until 8:30 P.M getting to a restaurant before 9pm is challenging and feels rushed. So our 9:15 time was perfect. Our entire experience was incredible. Wonderful service, amazing food, and"
"Very nice ambience in a restaurant near the square. Food is always good, although, last night, my husband and I agreed the seared scallops were too salty, and I am so to who does not go light on the salt when I cook. The service is always great! Timing between appetizers and entrees is appreciated, not too rushed or too long. The brussel sprouts is our favorite appetizer; the sauce drizzled on top is delicious!"
"Good drinks and appetizers! It can be difficult to get a table when the overture center has a show. Update: we went back for food, and it was very impressive. Everything was delicious. I do wish there was complementary bread instead of having to buy it all a la carte. the rustic ciabatta is amazing. I feel like paying four dollars on top of an already expensive meal is a little much. Maybe it should be complementary with entrées? I do feel like a little more seasoning would have been helpful although the food was delicious as it was. I don’t care what anyone says… the fudge brownie dessert is the best dessert on the menu."
"I popped into this place for a quick lunch before a matinee at the Overture on Saturday, and this place is right across the street. Immediate seating at the bar, it looked like a wait time for a table. The bartenders were exceptional! I ordered the fried chicken sandwich thinking it would be easy and fast, since I only had an hour. (Note: I opted for no side.) While waiting, I enjoyed the Italians ‘87 cocktail, that was absolutely wonderful! The sage! The description of the sandwich has several components that one might think are unique and even odd… the temptation to leave off or have ingredients placed on the side is tempting. Knowing chefs create interesting flavor combos, I always opt to have it made as is. WOW! Let me say this was probably the best fried chicken sandwich I have ever had! I am only disappointed that I had to hurry through it! I would definitely recommend this restaurant.. great experience on every level!"
"My husband and I went for a romantic dinner celebrating our 18th wedding anniversary. As out-of-towners we knew nothing about this restraunt and picked it based only on the Google reviews and word of mouth in Madison. We could not have had a better experience. Our server Austin was courteous, attentive, knowledgeable, and passionate about the food. We ordered the formaggio board, cocktails, an entrée each, and were given free dessert! Everything was AMAZING and the bill was reasonable for a fine dining experience. We will definitely return."
