I am so glad I didn't review this place on my first visit. The service was absolutely atrocious to the point where we weren't sure if we'd come back. We decided to give this place a second chance, because the food really was great. I now count Vintage among my favorite Madison restaurants.
The food is consistently mouthwatering and portions are more than ample for the price. And they nearly always have a different nightly food special to add on to their somewhat simple menu.
For an appetizer you must try the heaping plate of nachos (add chorizo, YUM!)
I am also quite in love with the beers they brew in-house. Truly a variety for every type of beer-drinking palate. And they have new stuff on tap all the time- with some especially tasty seasonal selections.
As if the food and brews aren't enough, I am absolutely enamored with the atmosphere and retro decor! I always looks forward to my bill being brought to me on the sweetest little vintage plates!
