    Here’s a brief review you can use or modify: Outstanding food and service! The sushi was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented, and the staff was attentive and welcoming. The only downside was the that the venue was quite loud, making it difficult to have a conversation, and the lighting was very dim.

    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.

    A perfect dining experience. Brian was our waiter, and he did an excellent job explaining the menu and checking on my food allergies. The meal was delightful and there is no topping that view.

    Best speakeasy I’ve ever been to! Such a chill vibe, drinks were delish and the food was amazing!! My compliments to chef! Loved the lounge style, patio like seating & tiki decor. We sat at a high top table with a fire place in the middle which kept us so cozy & warm. Highly recommend The Grass Skirt and will be visiting again soon!!
