We've been to Sardine several times and it is one of my favorite restaurants in Madison. Make sure at least someone in your party has the duck confit salad...large enough to share and it is excellent. My entree fave is the skate wing; a dish one doesn't see very often and they prepare it perfectly. The restaurant has a rustic converted warehouse look. Excellent service - attentive without being intrusive. A few minor areas I think they might improve upon: my better half and I both found the chairs to be uncomfortable and paper menus / dinner mats seem cheasy for fine dining. But an overall very nice dining experience. We'll be back.
