I didn't go many places for Restaurant Week, and I am so glad that Osteria Papavero was one of my choices.
Ambiance: It was a fantastic place for a ladies night, but it would also be good for a date. The restaurant is very cute, quiet enough for conversation, and small enough that it feels intimate.
Food: I did not expect much from the budino, but the rave reviews convinced me to try it. You have to get it, it was beyond belief. Also, The Elk Ragout was INCREDIBLE AND they had mulled wine.
Overall: One of my favorite places in Madison. The prices were definitely reasonable and the service was attentive without being intrusive.
