Cooper’s Hawk Winery & Restaurant- Middleton

Service was outstanding for our big group, server was attentive to our needs with food recommendations and always had water at the table. Food was brought out hot and all arrived at same time with great presentation.

Group of 8, enjoyed a wonderful, dinner fill of laughter and joy! Everyone loved their meals,appetizers and wine and drinks. Then drive to Overture to watch Wicked.

It was our first time there and it was absolutely amazing. Our waitress was so kind and patient. Food was so delicious, the wine was delightful. I am already looking forward to coming back!

Truly a great experience with good people and delicious wine and food. Portions are sometimes small but we always have a wonderful time.

We had a great server, Bailey that made our experience wonderful. As a member of the wine club, I did get my thank bottle, the wine of the month which was delicious. We had the gnocchi, which was great but could have been split as it was filling. I usually never order dessert but we split the chef special a popover with strawberries and ice cream and it was decadent!!! Thank you for a very nice experience.

The food was great, but a little pricey. Our server was amazing, and the atmosphere was energetic on a Saturday evening for dinner. We would go back except for the high price compared to other local restaurants with food as good but dinner costs less.

The food was great. We had less than stellar service, our server was nice but I ordered a wine flight to pair with my 3 courses plus a sparkling wine to start. The wines didn't come until after the first course was done. They never brought the second course or any bread so I ended up having 4 glasses of wine for my main course which was ok, but not what I had planned on . I'm sure the recommended pairings are great with the food as Ive heard others recommend doing that; hopefully next time I'll be able to enjoy them together! The medallion trio was great as was the buratta sausage flat bread!

Lisa the manager runs a tight ship she is super attentive to detail. The shrimp risotto was fantastic came out hot and fresh. The non spirit drinks are also phenomenal.

Truly made our Anniversary celebration exceptional. From the moment we arrived, everything flowed smoothly, thanks to our prior reservation, and the staff was warm and attentive. I discreetly mentioned our special occasion to the manager, and her thoughtful, understated approach made us feel both celebrated and at ease. A complimentary glass of champagne was offered to toast the evening, a lovely and much-appreciated touch.

The food was extraordinary, with each dish presented beautifully and bursting with flavor. We barely waited before our meals arrived, a testament to both the skill of the kitchen and the efficiency of the staff. Our drinks were equally impressive, crafted to perfection and complemented the meal perfectly.

Dining at Cooper’s Hawk was an exquisite experience, and we’re grateful for their attention to detail that made our evening feel so unique and memorable.

This is absolutely my favorite restaurant in the Madison area. The customer service is always A1 and the food is amazing! I wish I would have taken a picture of my empty plate when I finished! Lol Lisa(manager) is THE BEST!! She is always walking around checking on everyone, making us feel so welcomed and that makes the experience even better!! I’m going to miss My Chocolate Almond wine when I move back to the South.

Lisa is the best manager I’ve ever encountered. She has great hospitality and the reason I continue to come back every week. Alan the server has great customer service skills and amazing at what he does. My food came out within 10 minutes and the restaurant was pack. This is by far my favorite restaurant. Oh yeah and the wine is great!!! My recommendation is chocolate almond!!!

This was the first less-than excellent experience I've had at Cooper's Hawk ("CH"). I'm a member of their wine club (which is a great value), and so dine there fairly regularly.

The food was excellent, as usual. My dining companion follows a gluten-free diet, and CH has an ample gluten-free menu. We split two gf appetizers and two gf entrees. Most were excellent, the gf Bruscetta was good (and how many places would even attempt a gf bruschetta?).

But on this night the service really struggled. Our server was nice and tried hard, but I got the impression that she was new, and was not yet adequately trained. In our row of tables, food and drinks were repeatedly brought to the wrong table. Our first round of drinks took probably 15 minutes to arrive, we had to ask twice for water and the complimentary breads (one pretzel, one gf) were not delivered to our table until maybe half an hour in, and only after we asked for them.

CH has set a far higher standard than this experience, and its not a cheap place, so I hope and expect that they'll be back on their game next time!
