Restaurants near Deansville State Wildlife Area

Excellent service and food! Great place for a nice dinner when visiting your UW student.

We arrived approximately 45 minutes early for our reservation as what we were doing beforehand finished early. They were very accommodating and sat us early as they were able to. Food was delicious as well. Only thing is they do have live music which can get loud if you’re trying to have a conversation. Overall though the experience was great and we will definitely be back.

What an incredible restaurant!! We were visiting Madison and Lucille was recommended to us by a friend. The restaurant is beautiful and we loved the vibe. The servers were so wonderful. And the food!! We got the Queen pizza and the cheese curds. Highly recommend Lucille. Can’t wait to go back!!!

Wow—how have I not been to Merchant sooner?! I’m actually mad at myself for missing out on this gem for so long. From the very first bite, I knew I was in for something special. We started with the deviled eggs, which were the perfect way to warm up for the main event—just enough to tease the taste buds without spoiling the appetite. But the real star? The shrimp cakes. Hands down, one of the best things I’ve eaten in Madison! Perfectly crispy on the outside, tender and flavorful on the inside—every bite was next-level delicious. On top of the phenomenal food, the atmosphere was just as impressive. The stylish decor and intimate vibe made for an amazing dinner date, elevating the entire experience. I’m officially hooked. I’ll be coming back again and again to work my way through the menu, and I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for incredible food in Madison. If you haven’t been to Merchant yet—go ASAP. You won’t regret it!

Always enjoy an evening at Eno Vino. The service was great and the food was delicious!
