    Honestly, we first learned about Ristorante Bartolotta dal 1993 from their appearance during "Top Chef: Wisconsin", so our expectations were already rather high for this, our first dinner experience there. Even so, every aspect of our evening exceeded those expectations! Thank you for such a delicious meal, from beginning to end, and for such warm and gracious service!

    My husband and I had a lovely dining experience at Maggiano’s. Our server was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable of the menu. Our entrees were perfectly cooked and delicious (I had the chicken Marsala, and my husband had the blackened salmon with crispy Calabrian shrimp). And the lemon cookies are such a nice, bright little treat to end a great meal! A wonderful experience; we will definitely be back!
