Best Hot Spot Restaurants in Madison South

Food has really good taste, just super robust for a brunch but I suppose that’s the southern style (it was my first time eating southern food). But I could definitely go back.

Nostrana is a consistently great restaurant. Food and service are outstanding. Our server Emma was fantastic. Made us feel like we knew her our entire lives. Please ask for Emma when you do.

The Ruski Zakuski experience was phenomenal, and with the addition of a cavier and a bread dish, was the perfect amount of food! We were too full for desert, but they still brought out a small frosted cookie with a candle, as it was a birthday event. Absolutely on my permanent dinner spot rotation.

This was another excellent dining experience. Food and wine pairings were spot on and the atmosphere was fun. staff is very attentive.

We had such a lovely meal at Noble Rot! The staff was so warm and welcoming, and repeatedly acknowledged our occasion. Food was fantastic, fresh, and innovative. Server was very knowledgeable and offered varying suggestions. Both my partner and I are longtime servers, so to be taken care of to this degree was refreshing for such a special occasion. The cocktails were unique, balanced, and interesting. If I had to provide any critique, and it would be hard to, I would say that the baguette appetizer could stand to be improved upon. As a vegetarian, though, finding dishes that play with texture, flavor, and ingredient can be fairly laborious, and Noble Rot did not disappoint there. Would absolutely return (and likely eat less next time to save room for dessert!)
