Absolutely loved the food choices. Everything was fantastic. The location was awesome and atmosphere was very fun.
Merchant is awesome as always
The vibes were amazing especially with the Halloween decor and the service was attentive. Very aware of allergies which I really appreciated. The food was good but nothing really stood out that much. The star I guess was the vodka pasta and the drinks. The drinks are definitely well made and I really enjoyed the crows nest.

Merchant Madison offers a mixed dining experience. While the whiskey sours and cheese curds receive praise, the Bibb lettuce salad and steak frites fall short. However, the Saturday brunch on the patio is described as beautiful and delicious, with highlights like the farmers market omelette and shrimp cake benedict. Guests note limited entree choices and an upfront reservation fee, which did not fully deliver on the promised offerings. Recent reviews highlight the friendly staff, attentive service, and a lively, welcoming atmosphere. The brunch experience is especially praised for its relaxed yet stylish vibe, with standout items like beignets, which are hot, airy, and dusted with powdered sugar. The menu offers a thoughtful blend of comfort and creativity, including flavorful vegetarian options and enjoyable mocktails. Food and drinks are consistently well-received, including the vodka pasta and crows nest, though some entrees were just ok. Staff are aware of allergies, and the drinks are well made. Although the restaurant can be noisy during busy times, guests enjoy the overall hospitality and quality, making it a popular spot for both locals and visitors.
