We had an amazing experience at DelecTable on Friday. All 11 courses were interesting and perfectly executed. A great meal and a lot of fun.

Best food I have ever had and an amazing culinary experience. The Chef and Sommelier were extremely knowledgeable and the rest of the staff was very kind. Worth every penny. The eight course meal was served over 4 hours and the pacing was great. The quarter pour wine pairing was a perfect amount
Vegetarian options: About half of the courses involved meat.
Dietary restrictions: They are very accommodating

Very unique and fine dining experience. This 8-10 course meal is exquisite. Five star service for sure, you definitely get what you paid for. About 3 hours with each course expertly paired with a cocktail, mocktail or wine that is then explained during each course. Love the fact that they have a whole mocktail menu that directly replicates the normal cocktails to make us feel included. I brought my 13 year old sister with me and didn’t want to drink with her with me. It was nice she was able to enjoy it just as much as everyone else. With that being said, she is 13 and her palate was definitely not enhanced enough for this meal. Very unique, delicious and sophisticated flavors. I really loved the blindfold course, leaving you discover what’s on your plate through your other senses. I loved almost every thing and plan on coming back.

A unique and elaborate culinary experience that will have your taste buds and your belly more than satisfied! Come spend an evening out experiencing fancy and flavorful foods and spice combinations that most likely are new to you! All the food is made in house using local farm fresh ingredients on a custom 8 course menu that is created to fit the fresh local ingredients! Chef Ben is both a delight and extremely talented along with Tyler the Alchemist who artfully matches drinks to your dining experience! The atmosphere is cozy, fancy, and you get to watch the Chef's work, cook, and artfully plate your food.
There are 3 tiers of experience all at at different cost: Chef's table which is the most expensive where you are at the table they are preparing the food and can chat with them, General seating which you can see the chef make the food on the TVs, and bar seating which is the most affordable but hey the bar tenders are right there!
I went here for a big birthday of mine and wow did they make it special. They left me a cute little card saying happy birthday and I left with a gift wrapped mini bottle of an olive oil from their store Vom Foss.
10/10 birthday, date, anniversary idea.
Vegetarian options: Very accommodating and will make each part of the meal vegetarian!
Dietary restrictions: They are VERY accommodating. You can do dietary restrictions & allergies when you book the event AND the options are all just as fancy and delicious.
Parking: Easy parking that is free

Last night my husband & I went to DelecTable for the first time. What were we waiting for?! We shop at Vom Fass & each time are reminded of the restaurant…& promptly do nothing about it because I’m terrible at planning ahead. We sat at the chef’s table because I like to be as close as possible to whatever is going on. The evening was flawless. Attentive service & Chef Ben & his crew were delightful to watch…calm & precise. Chef introduced each course & he let us know what farm each ingredient came from, who the farmers are, & where they are located…my kind of place. Local is important to me & that is how I cook at home. I have relationships with the people who grow & raise my food. Chef Ben’s passion about what he does was evident & he answered our questions with ease. The food was creative, challenging, & showcased the best of what Wisconsin has to offer right now. Each dish surprised my taste buds & made me think…does this belong here? Do these ingredients go together? Wow, that’s aggressive! And yes, in the end…it all settled in & made sense. This is not your grandmother’s cooking. And I like that. Sometimes good food just is…& other times it’s like art & opens your mind to new possibilities. I usually have an easy time picking favorites…but not with this menu…I’d gleefully eat it all over again. What made me happiest was that I was served things I’m not a huge fan of (bitter greens, chicken breast, sous vide protein)…& they worked! I will immediately send back a piece of meat that is sous vide…I HATE the texture & no one seems able to hide it. Chef Ben sous vide the chicken breast in butter…& oh, my…it was luscious. Parsnips 3 ways included a crispy peel…using the whole vegetable. Many dishes featured my love language…sweet & savory. The standout ingredient of the night for me…Zatar spiced compressed Metiki dark cucumber…those few zesty bites made the lamb sing…it was the only thing I wish I had more of. My Mad Apple Mule featured apple cider that had been pressed that morning…& tasted like autumn in a glass. The meal was incredible & I am eager to return.
We had the five course meal. Staff was very friendly and the interactive experience was nice. We thought all of the dishes were on the sweeter side with a lack of other flavors (e.g., citrus) to balance, but that might be a matter of personal preference. Desert was excellent.

A really lovely date experience for my husband and I, with a focus on seasonal and locally sourced food.
The non-alcoholic meal pairing was especially notable. Each course came with a beautiful mockcocktail, thoughtfully prepared and well matched to the course. If you have any doubts about whether it is worth paying as much for the mocktail pairings as for the wine pairings: it absolutely is. The amount of care and time that went into each drink was worth it.

First time eating here and what a great dining experience in Madison!
Located in Hilldale area with plenty of free parking. The concept is an open layout kitchen serving 8-10 courses which vary depending on what local ingredients are available that season. They also only do dinner service with the seating beginning at 6:00 PM.
Cost breakdown: A $20/person deposit and $8 booking fee is required to make a reservation!
$120/person + 20% service charge for bar seating at the table where the chef prepares food. Only advantage is it's easier to chat with the chef during the experience. This price is without wine pairing.
$99/person + 20% service charge for general table seating. I sat here and still had a view of the chefs plating food. If I return I would pick this seating again.
Food: The food is locally sourced, well presented, and tasted great. I especially enjoyed the blindfold course where you wear a blindfold as the waitstaff bring out the food so you do not know what you are eating. As each course is brought out, chef Ben explains the ingredients of each dish and where they were sourced from.
There was an intermission of about 15-20 minutes where you could stretch your legs or enjoy complimentary samples of whiskey, oil, and other condiments. Another Yelp review mentioned the intermission was 45 minutes which concerned us initially, but ours wasn't that long.
All of the waitstaff and chefs were super friendly and attentive. My only criticisms are that I was there celebrating a birthday and the birthday cake they provided was very basic, especially for a place charging $100+/person and the experience was 3.5 hours which is quite long for 8 courses!

Wow. I can’t believe I've lived in Madison for years and have never heard of this place. This is one of, if not the, most unique and incredible dining experiences in the Madison area. The food was phenomenal and the service could not have been better. The wine pairings were incredibly thoughtful and truly enhanced every course. I can’t wait to come back often and share this experience with everyone I love.
