It was a nice fall night so we were able to enjoy the outdoor seating but would have been happy with sitting inside as the atmosphere is really cool. I started off with the Wedge Salad which is one of my all time favorite salads. I loved how the bacon, cheese, eggs and carrots all were on the side of the dish. The dressing was just right. That is one thing I am so picky about is how much or how little a restaurant puts on. This was perfect. My husband tried the Roasted Squash Soup which he really liked. The hot bread that comes out with your first side is VERY hot and wonderful. For my main course I had the Chicken Fresco. YUM! The chicken was so juicy and tender and the flavor was wonderful. It came with buttermilk chive risotto, green beans, bacon, oven roasted tomato sauce, crispy shallots. I loved this so much that I didn't have enough left over to even take home for lunch the next day. My husband of course had a steak. He had the New York Strip which came with garlic mashed potato, green bean, basil dijonnaise, scallion butter. He said his steak was exactly how he ordered it and was very good. We rarely order dessert but thought we would try it here as our food was so good. We shared the Chocolate Cake. Loved that as well. Our waitress was very friendly and knowledgeable as this was our first time dinning here and had a few questions about the menu. After we finished our dessert we headed in to the bar where I enjoyed a dirty martini and my husband had a spotted cow. Great place for dinner down on State Street in Madison."^^ . . . . "0"^^ .
