Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Madison offers a vibrant dining experience with "amazing food" and "phenomenal drinks," often complemented by live jazz. The atmosphere is lively and inviting, making it ideal for gatherings. Service can be hit or miss, but standout servers like Gianna and Johnny enhance the experience. The decor is beautiful, and the outdoor seating is recommended for quieter dining. Despite some inconsistencies, many patrons find Madison an enjoyable spot for brunch or dinner, particularly on jazz nights.

    To be honest, I’ve been here probably four times and always loved it! However, last night my son was in town with his fiancé from Baltimore and we went for what we thought was gonna be a lovely dinner. But to my disappointment, we were greeted very sweet and then escorted into the bar area to sit in a booth. The young lady who waited on us was very quick in her service and we let her know we would like to enjoy ourselves so we would be taking our time to order appetizers drinks and then moving on to our mains. Everything was fine until we sat around for what seen about half an hour with four employees having their own conversation very much, ignoring our gestures that we were ready to order our dinners. Knowing that the restaurant closed at 8:30. I was a bit concerned that it was 8 o’clock, maybe just after. I ordered the chicken piccata and was very unimpressed as my mashed potatoes were cold. The piccata sauce had turned into a white gravy of thick cold goo! The portion was very tiny. It was to come with giant asparagus, which I was given three small wimpy, overcooked, asparagus… I felt like the service dropped off quite a bit when it was almost closing time. I actually witnessed the bartender turn people away at 8:15 who were coming in to get cocktails… Being a bartender for years I was blown away that we wouldn’t have wanted to grab some last minute drinks at 8:15 from patrons. When I mentioned that my dinner was cold, I was met with very on sympathetic comment. And was asked if I wanted a box to take it home…

    It was great!!! Table was ready and available. Steak was overly salty but the food was good. Wish they would not have run out of churros for dessert. They were very accommodating and ambiance was really nice.

    We sat outside for a birthday celebration. The part of 4 girls next to us were very loud and very drunk. It made conversation at our table very limited. We asked the waiter for help but were told there was nothing they could do.

    Gianna was a wonderful waitress and the staff was on the ball. First time at Madison's and looking forward to going back. Food was amazing, drinks were phenomenal and the jazz band just gave it an extra excitement. Highly recommend.

    Love this place!! I do think the music can be lowered as it’s always too loud to hold conversations. We go there weekly and love the staff and FOOOOOOOD!! Especially the waffle sticks 💗

    We took a couple we are friends with to Madison for a birthday breakfast and ate at the outside tables as we thought they would be quieter. For a Saturday morning it was surprisingly not very busy starting at their first reservation time of 9:30. It was pleasant on the deck although the ambience could be a little nicer. And it was quiet! The service was outstanding and we all loved the dishes we ordered. No duds! The birthday boy received what I think was a flourless chocolate cake for dessert which was delicious! I never order flourless chocolate cake as it is too often not to my taste but I would return here just for the dessert. I believe this is the first time I have eaten breakfast here and it won't be the last.

    It was very fun, good music, good food. Stingy with bread but other than that it’s very good.

    Live Jazz was great on Wednesdays, volume was a bit loud at times but manageable. The drinks were absolutely amazing.

    Been coming here for years but feel this is the first year when the food quality has declined and so has the level of service. There are not enough waiters to handle a full dining room so it’s really hard to get a hold of your server. The menu is limited and hasn’t changed for a while. Food was borderline bland. Will reconsider coming here going forward.
