- KSKurtSvipWisconsin •4 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoOutstanding special occasion restaurant. Eating here is an event that goes way beyond food quality. The food is fabulous but is rivaled by the top notch service and ambiance. Our waitress truly wanted us to have a fabulous experience and was perfectly attentive without being intrusive. The atmosphere is classy and bustling in a really fun way. But yes, you pay top dollar for the evening.More infoRare SteakhousePrice: Expensive• Steakhouse• Madison•4.6

Discover Madison
Wisconsin's capital surrounds most of Lake Mendota and the nearby suburbs. Whether you're taking a stroll by the water in summer or ice skating downtown during the cooler months, make sure you take a break to try a kringle. Wisconsin is one of only a few states to declare a state pastry, and this delightful Danish dessert is worth the acclaim. If you're looking for a full meal rather than just dessert, head downtown to see a selection of the most popular restaurants. The square around the Capitol is home to a dozen cozy pubs and steakhouses, so you can enjoy an Irish draft beer or classic burger. For those who prefer Asian food, there is a wide array of Thai, Chinese, and Japanese fare to enjoy here as well.
