Best Wine Bars in Mount Horeb

We went for Sunday brunch and everything that we ordered was exceptional. Our server Prasad went above and beyond to ensure our daughter was able to get off an off menu item from the kitchen. I live in Chicago, but if I was in Madison full time Cento would a regular spot for dining out.

THE FOOD WAS DELICIOUS AND THE WAITSTAFF WAS TRULY AMAZING. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS RESTAURANT.

We went to rare for the first time, although we previously lived in Madison, but prior to their opening, it was to celebrate our 50th anniversary in Madison, where we were married. We were a bit, unsure about going due to the Art fear being set up on the Square and potential concerns with parking however, we took an Uber that was a wise choice however it appeared to have access at the ramps so it wasn’t that busy and we wound up sitting on the patio an absolutely beautiful night. The weather was perfect and there were a few people dining outside and scattered tables that were working inside we were promptly greeted by the manager, maître D avoid trade, forgot his name already, but they immediately acknowledged why we were there and congratulated us and offered us the table of our choice in or out. He also came back after we were seated and poured my wife and I a glass of very enjoyable champagne. Our server, Amelie was absolutely fantastic and really made the evening from her knowledge of the menu and recommendations and wonderful conversation throughout the evening along with the front of house manager absolutely was special acknowledging our special evening. It really polished the entire experience, but I must say the food was great. We shared the Porter house for two or let’s just say it was the 36 ounce Porter house. It was more than enough for two to finish. The lobster bisque is a must. The unique flavoring utilized was unlike any I’ve ever had and I’ve sampled many. We enjoyed the salads of the Caesar in house, very fresh and well dressed, hashbrowns and mushrooms, rounded out our dinner course and we’re more than substantial. Dessert courses, including a complementary retreat fantastic. This was truly special occasion made better by Amelie in the front of house manager who are very sincere. I also thought pricing was very fair and quite reasonable highly highly recommend.

I had dined at the Eno Vino on the westside of Madison for years. Loved it! This weekend I took a friend out for her birthday dinner at the downtown location. What a lovely evening we had! The view was incredible! The feeling of the restaurant was warm but sophisticated. The food, as always, was tasty and unique. We decided that we have a new tradition of celebrating her birthday at Eno Vino!

Food and wine was very good, with a range of choices for different palates. Service was excellent.
