Jardin
Vegan restaurant

Cafe CODA
Jazz club
👍👍 The music here is simply incredible! Excellent band! Unfortunately the acoustics were not good, and the cocktails might just have been the worst I’ve ever had in Madison. I’d come again, but I’ll stick to beer next time 🍺
Edit: I came back a year later and the cocktails were much improved 😀 and t...

The Botanist Social
Restaurant
😐 Was excited to check out this place on State St but unfortunately didn’t leave with the same excitement. It’s a cool atmosphere and all but what really threw me off was the attempt at fine dining. The short rib was bland and the chicken was luke warm. The portion size was very small for the $26 shor...
