• Brazilian Steakhouse • Madison
Booked 25 times today
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.

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.

The Boathouse is a casual waterfront dining spot along the shores of Lake Mendota that serves up hot fare and cold craft beers every day from 11am-10pm. The long-standing tradition of waterfront dining in Wisconsin is not lost here, in fact, it is very much at the forefront of this restaurant. Our chef takes casual classics like burgers and cheese curds and puts his modern spin on them to make lakeside life even better, all while being right in the heart of downtown Madison.

    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.

    CIRC was a comfortable dining experience. The price is reasonable for a buffet brunch. Items included: biscuits and gravy, real scrambled eggs, bacon, French toast, smoked salmon, various pastries, and fresh fruit. It was a nice variety. We were seated quickly and greeted immediately. Our bar order took a long time, but we were able to immediately access the buffet. The food was fresh and tasty. Not the most luxurious buffet I've ever seen, but enough to feel satisfied. The atmosphere is casual dining.

    Again as with our first experience at Easter, the brunch layout is so very easy to maneuver and deal with, even with a Mother using a walker. Even though it is a very large space we've never felt congested or like you are waiting in lines forever to get a chance to serve ourselves and our party. Food selections and quality are top notch and there always seems to be adequate staff to keep buffet filled and to be right on top of clearing tables as needed. The Concourse will continue to be our go-to venue for holiday celebrations. We totally enjoy our experiences there!
