Love love love this place! Excellent appetizers are always rotating - this last time we tried the chicken dumplings and they were presented so nicely and tasted even better. The pizza here is always amazing and fresh! Don't go if you don't appreciate a good thin crust pizza. Our lovely server was extremely attentive and also convinced us to try that night's special dessert, a lemon tarte with fresh blueberries, mint, and sea salt - this was so good I have no words. I'm sad it's not a regular dessert option!
Aside from the food, Grampa's has an adorable ambiance that combines old school with modern decor. My favorite date night spot in Madison. My only complaint is how long the wait time always is - BUT the owners graciously opened Gibs next door, so you can go to yet another great gen and grab a drink while you wait. This place is worth the wait.
