Often times when someone says that a restaurant is a tradition in a city, it ends up being disappointing. The Tornado Club is a tradition and it is head and shoulders the best in Madison. It is not as fancy as some places and feels a bit like a supper club, but when the food is this good the traditional feel just adds to the experience. It has everything you would expect from a high end steakhouse without trying too hard the way the chains do. Great food, great service, and for a high end place, prices are reasonable - at least you feel like you got what you paid for.
