What a great place for breakfast. Not too busy. Well paced service, delicious food and cocktails. Breakfast pizza is crazy flavorful and aromatic. Maybe the best espresso martini I’ve had. I really enjoyed my time here.

My wife and I were really excited to try a new place that we have never been. But, let me start by saying our server was friendly and clearly trying his best, but it was obvious he was very inexperienced and didn’t know much about the menu. Unfortunately, that set the tone for what turned out to be one of the most frustrating dining experiences we’ve had in Madison. We were seated right by the front door — every time it opened, we froze. It took forever just to get water, and when I asked for ice, it never showed up. Drinks took 20+ minutes from the bar, and the salads and appetizer they were both mediocre at best. We had to ask for bread (which ended up being the best part). When our meals finally came, two of the four meals were barely room temperature. When the plates were reheated and brought back, I noticed they took my silverware. I requested a new set and it took what felt like 15 mins but was probably only 5 mins but we still had to ask multiple times and the food was warm.....not hot by any means, and I was done and hit the wall. By the end, we didn't think we would have any issues with the dessert course, but of course the cannoli's came to the table and they were stale & soft and lacked flavor. Overall, it was a really disappointing and awkward experience. With so many great dining options in Madison, I’d recommend looking elsewhere until D’Vino seriously improves both its service and kitchen execution.

The food was incredible. I enjoyed the Sicilian steak, while my husband had the lasagna and he had the calamari appetizer to start. Both entrees were excellent, and he very much enjoyed the calamari. Will say that it was very difficult to gain our servers attention, requiring my husband to get a beer from the bar, but other than her lack of attention would 100% recommend this place for fine dining. Quiet, cozy, owner was very attentive and outgoing.

We were truly blown away by D’Vino! We already enjoy Dinotto, their lunch-time sandwich spot, and we’re thrilled that D’Vino lived up to those expectations. We went for our anniversary, and this was truly the best service and some of the best food we’ve had in Madison yet! Our server was fantastic, we were regularly checked in on, and asked for our feedback on our meals. The atmosphere is wonderful, the music is on-par, and the service is genuinely commendable. Not a single complaint— I felt everything ordered was appropriately paced. The specials are PHENOMENAL- if you have a chance to order the saffron aged mozzarella arancini or their veal, jump on it! The anniversary sparklers were such a cute touch!! We’ll definitely be visiting again.
