| - Are you looking for a place to hang out and chat with friends? Look no further, after your delicious meals at the capitol, head over to this sleek and comfortable lounge for some drinks and talk.
Also, they have many happy hour specials. Snacks are 25% off, and on other days they have other specials!
The owner, Many (I'm really sorry if I wrote your name wrongly..), was very kind to let Yelp have its Boozing and Schmoozing event at her lounge. She personally served our group and made sure we had drinks to go around for everyone. According to Many, Opus was the first location for signature/craft cocktails in Madison, in 2000!! isn't that amazing?
I really enjoyed the booths and low lighting. Drinks and good ambience make for great conversations. The snacks seemed rather expensive on the menu, but they were all tasty AND after happy hour discount, we paid only $16 for 5 different appetizers. woohoo. great deal!
Snacks:
Sweet potato fries - great thickness, not crispy/crunchy fries. I wish there were more! Great sauce to go with fries.
Fried cheese - I imagined a slab of grilled cheese look-a-like. But I got SPRING ROLLS! Awesome idea. love the crispiness from the wrap, and chewy texture of the cheese
Hummus - wish there were more hummus! There was loads of olive tapenade and a huge roasted garlic.
Chips and Dips - one of the most worth it items on the menu. lots of chips with nice ranch like dip.
Drinks:
Whiskey man - floral, not so sweet drink (although some friends disagree). Quite a strong alcoholic taste
Alana's ruby slippers - love this champagne cocktail. sweet and bubbly and fruity. Definitely my next drink when I visit
Lady Earl (or something like that from the seasonal specialty cocktails) - not so sweet drink. taste more of the alcohol than anything
Latino Pepino (seasonal specialty) - refreshing and light. not a sweet drink.
I won't be here for food, but I'll definitely bring my girls when I want to have some downtime to unwind and chat. Happy hour drinks and snacks are another motivation ;)
