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.

    Consistently fine quality, in food, presentation, and service. The menu offers so many interesting options, and the flavors are beautifully chosen to make each plate distinctive. When we order beef as we did tonight it hit medium rare masterfully! Coopers has been a favorite of ours since 2016, across many states, and the Middleton, WI venue lives up to the high standards set by the company.

    The Palette Bar and Grill was an overall wonderful experience with fast and friendly service, fun drinks, and delicious food. I went early evening on a Saturday and it was nice and quiet with several seats available at the bar and many open tables in the dining room. It was a very nice date night experience and I would definitely recommend.

    We love the food and drinks at Eno Vino! The atmosphere is usually nice because they have a fireplace, but it was not operating when we were there so that was a bit unfortunate because it was a very cold blustery evening.
