Restaurants near Deansville Fen State Natural Area

We frequently dine at Eno Veno prior to attending performances at the Overture Center. This was our best meal there yet. We tried several relatively new items on the menu. We particularly enjoyed the salad made with pears and goat cheese, the croquettes with Iberian jambon, and the lamb with pureed sweet potatoes and roast carrot. Each dish was delectable and beautifully presented. The croquettes were quite similar to those our daughter enjoyed when she lived in Spain, lightly crisp on the outside, creamy and subtlety seasoned on the inside. The lamb was tender and done to perfection with deliciously complementary sides. As always at this restaurant, the service was excellent throughout the meal.

We had a wonderful brunch catching up with a former colleague and teacher before a show at The Overture Center. Friendly staff, delicious food, and a beautiful view of Lake Mendota. Our group had the spicy chicken sandwich, ham and cheese omelet, and eggs Benedict. We’ll be back again!

We loved Lucille's! We visited during Miracle on King St since our entire family was in town to celebrate the holiday. We loved the festive atmosphere, Christmas music, and holiday drink menu to kick up some holiday cheer! We started off with cheese curds and nachos, and ended with three different pizzas. It was fabulous!

The place seemed a little understaffed as our server was managing many tables and took a while to get to us, but the staff were otherwise very friendly. There was a mixup with our table's order which resulted in me getting my meal after quite a wait. Unfortunately the corn bisque with mussels I ordered was very bland and the mussels were very undercooked, so I did not eat much of it. The cornbread and fish fry were fine, but nothing too impressive. I had been to Merchant in the past and thought it was fantastic and was surprised to have not a great experience this time.

Dinner was excellent. Live music was too loud. Hard to have dinner conversation over the music and noise from other tables. Love Buck and Honey’s.
