Best Restaurants for Foodies in Madison

Everything was amazing it was so worth it we will definitely be coming back

We had a party of 4, sat outside in the heated patio. Very comfortable and cozy. 2 of us got the shrimp and grits. Savory sauce, really good. My husband got the scallops. He enjoyed them, good flavor but there were only 3 scallops. Would go back.

It was our first time at Koré after hearing so many amazing things about it - and boy did it not disappoint. The crispy rice & spicy tuna was unreal as well as the sticky ribs having heavenly fall of the bone meat. The mi cucumber was phenomenal and the truffle mac & cheese wonderful. Our server Kensington was AMAZING and walked us through the entire menu for our first time - kudos to all the staff & kitchen as well. Thanks for making our Valentine’s Day so easy to enjoy!

A one-of-a-kind culinary experience here in Nashville. Everything that we ordered was amazing; the endive and the donut dessert stood out the most to us. Such fun textures and stand-out flavors! And kudos to front of the house - service here was warm and inviting. Nailed all the cocktail recommendations and really made us felt like we were at a dinner party hosted by a good friend. Looking forward to coming back!

Our server, (forgot his name, but a tall and polite gentleman), took great care of us and brought us a free dessert and savory dish, as we were celebrating my girlfriend’s birthday and our five year anniversary. Something I enjoyed about him too, is he was informative, guided us through how the menu works, but was not overbearing in his delivery or presence at the table. I’ve been to so many places where you can tell the server is being a bit performative and will drown you in details instead of reading the room and giving people time to process lol. What really stood out as well, was the fact that every staff member we interacted with, (the host, server, and THREE other employees on the floor), all knew we were celebrating and made a point to congratulate us. You could tell they pay attention to special details here. My partner and I are both in the service industry (fine dining), so we notice the small stuff and had no complaints! Even our water glasses never dropped below 3/4ths full. Also worth noting — the value you get for the delicious food, great ambience, and service is WELL worth the price. A wonderful dining experience without breaking the bank. Would highly recommend this place 👍🏻
