  1. “really enjoy the salad with bleu cheese crumbles and apples with glazed walnuts.”
  2. “HOWEVER, those two things cannot makeup for the horrible service and so-so food.”
  3. “The entree stole the show we had the porterhouse for two and the bone in ribeye for two, simply delicious.”
  4. “All of our steaks were overcooked so i'd suggest to order accordingly and don't go starving to death because you'll wait a good 45 min for your appetizers to arrive.”
  5. “The meat is tender and the crust is flakey, just perfect.”
  6. “Every morsel of food there is heavenly.”
  7. “The first thing to note is that the seafood here is not recommended.”

  9. “We then ordered our salads, I had a wonderful tomato with gorg.”
  10. “It is unfortunate that the service is so terrible at The Madison since the food is so good.”
  11. “The good food can't out-weigh the very snobbish, rude service received.”
  12. “We ordered champagne and each of us ordered a different appetizer so we could all sample the menu, I must say I thought I was back in NY the food and presentations were so good.”
  13. “Suprisingly the mac and cheese has turned out to be my favorite side dish.”

We LOVE this place.

by addydillard

We LOVE this place. Discovered it about 11 years ago and we go there for all of our special occasions. I love it just as a date night with my husband. The staff is always friendly and helpful. We have never had to wait to be seated, not even on New Year's Eve or Valentine's Day

The historic atmosphere of this old bank takes you back to another era. A must see for anyone who appreciates architecture that is no longer found in our modern world. The live band and piano player makes it a great night out instead of it simply being typical night out.

Thank you for helping me sooo much!

by leorapacitti

Thank you for helping me sooo much! I meant to email you to let you know how wonderful our evening was, but we had our offices painted and carpeted all weekend so our computers were all down. Matthew was terrific! Very attentive and informative regarding the building. I especially enjoyed the empanadas and the lentil soup!! Of course the dessert was superb and the coffee made with the French press was flavorful. All of the entrees were enjoyed too. Very good job with the menu,Patrick. But most of all, our seating on the mezzanine was just beautiful! The view of the restaurant's interior from our table was so wonderful! We also took a tour of the vault downstairs. Thank you so much for a totally fabulous evening enjoyed by one and all!
