The food here is likely deserving of only three stars, but I've given four because they have exceptional dishes at times and the best dessert in Madison. The food, however, is not consistent. They are bold when it comes to the flavors they combine, and they often miss. For dessert, there was one dish with candied olive or another dish with a far-too-savory cracker that clashed so badly I couldn't believe it had ever been served. With that said, when they get it right, it can be exceptional.
