Palette provides a colorful dining experience with an American inspired menu featuring in-house cut steaks and 21-day aged 100% black Angus beef.As we inherited a space as historical as the former Mautz Paint Company warehouse, we had to do it justice. We kept our building’s architectural features intact while updating the space with contemporary design elements and nostalgic touches. We wanted to keep the space faithful to its roots; filled with hues of colors and textures reminiscing of times when the East Washington corridor was a booming industrial area in the city.Our menu features steak cuts made in-house, chef’s masterpieces, artisan salads and soups, along with a unique beer and hand-crafted cocktail selection.

• Brazilian Steakhouse • Madison

For those of you who are not current or former gauchos who roam the prairies of Brazil, you might need an explanation of our style of service. At the end on a long day of work tending to cattle and stock, Brazilian cowboys (Gauchos) and their families would prepare great feasts. They would skewer various meats, roast them over a fire pit and bring them to the table for carving. There would be a bounty of seasonal vegetables, stews and salads using fresh ingredients from the fruits of their labor.

This was my first visit to D’Vino but I can assure you it won’t be my last. I went with a friend who needs to eat gluten free so it came up on her gluten free app. She ordered a pasta dish with the GF penne, she loved it! I had one of the evening’s specials. It was a spinach ravioli with some cheese and sauce, it was amazing. Wish we had taken some pictures but couldn’t wait to dig in! Looking forward to my next meal there and trying a dessert.
