The food and service were excellent. A strict vegetarian in our party ordered something that turned out to have meat in it (which was clear on the menu). Our waiter apologized even though it wasn’t his fault, removed the dish and took a new order no questions asked, and no charge for the removed order. He made us all very comfortable with the situation. Nicely done!

We were in San Diego from out of town and celebrated my birthday here with several friends. Service was lovely and everyone's food was delicious. They even brought dessert with a candle unprompted. Would definitely return.

The spouse & I were visiting my daughter, who lives in San Diego. She had not been to Madison & neither had we. We all enjoyed the tomato & burrata appetizer. We also had the cioppino, Tuscan sausage rigatoni & chicken piccata; all were so good! Spouse & I had the Ibarra & The Woodsman, which were delicious. Service from Kylee excellent. We also enjoyed the music. My daughter plans to bring her roommates here.
