Restaurants near Riverside Park

The Holiday decor is wonderful! Festive atmosphere and always delicious food & creative cocktails.

We were the first customers of the day and greeted very kindly upon entry. Sat at the bar to enjoy a happy hour beverage. Our bartender and server, James, was quick to take our drink and app order - the Mediterranean Flatbread - SO delicious. At this time, the restaurant was getting busier and James was rocking it behind the bar and serving tables! For dinner, we ordered a Caesar Salad, Lobster Bisque, Autumn Airline Chicken Breast with added Wild Mushroom Medley and Mushroom Risotto. Everything was perfect! I was torn between the Risotto and Garlic Chive Mashed Potatoes and told James to surprise me. Glad he did because the Mushroom Risotto was the best I’ve had yet - so velvety and cheesy with tons of mushrooms and just enough richness to keep you going back for more. Highly recommend this restaurant! And shout out to James for great service!

My husband said the steak was excellent-tender, perfectly cooked and flavorful. He had the “works” add-on of shrimp, lobster and scallops in breadcrumbs, which he also enjoyed. I had the wild mushroom ravioli. It was delicious and the portion was just right for me-not too much. My husband had the crème brûlée for dessert-his favorite dessert-and he was not disappointed. Our waitress was excellent. She brought us a complimentary glass of champagne each to celebrate our anniversary. She was efficient, not over solicitous, and very pleasant.

We came for a work dinner. Tapas style food allowed us to taste several items off of the menu, all of which were delicious. Great views of the capital and downtown. I’d definitely return next time we are in Madison.

Our waitress was outstanding. She gave excellent recommendations and attentive service. Our food was very good, and we will be back.
