The Wise Restaurant Bar Red - Madison

Had dinner using the restaurant week menu, not sure I would have tried the menu otherwise, but everything was fantastic!

It turned out to be an event menu with very few choices, all bad. the drinks were served in paper cups. the online menu did not say that it would not be served regular menu.

Well, I don't think the bartender knew what was an old fashion, and good that we drink tickets. there was no place to look for a reservation and not how we needed one, now it is somehow obvious why we were the only two to eat. the cheese curds were good, which made me hope for the main course. it was as if who made the ravioli court was paid by the amount of salt used. the burger we had was pretty good, which is why the evaluation not only got one star. the waitress gave us ours before I had eaten the half of my food, but it is not as if she had other tables I could wait for. Overall, if the thema was literary, nothing except the equipment there was gone, and it was obvious that everything was hurried or not thought through.

Excellent food! Service was awesome and the ambiance was delightful.

This was the worst restaurant I have been to in Madison by far. I went there with son for Mother’s Day brunch and was completely underwhelmed by the buffet. I am a vegetarian and asked if the potatoes au gratin had meat and was told no. When I got to my table I saw bacon bits do I asked the waitress if there was meat in there. She said she didn’t know but asked the chef who confirmed that no there was no meat. Upon further inspection I saw bacon bits so I told her to show the chef. He then admitted that yes there was bacon in there. Besides that the bathrooms were filthy as well as the carpet in the main room. Do not go here for any reason. We ended up paying a price fixed of $54 for eating barely anything decent. We went to the diner next door and had a really good brunch instead.
