Went here with 2 others prior to a show at Overture. We had a reservation and were immediately seated.
The restaurant is long and narrow with the bar taking up one side. Very nice atmosphere. We each had a speciality drink; painkiller, clover club, and proprietary knowledge.
Cheese curd appetizer which was yummy.
Entrees included the lobster roll with truffle fries, shrimp risotto special and campanelle pasta. All our food was outstanding.
Service was excellent.
I recommend checking this place out.

We really wanted to try this place and ended up coming with our two kids, even though it’s not especially kid-centric. The staff was incredibly accommodating—while there’s no kids menu, our waitress suggested great kid-friendly options and modifications from the regular menu. The drinks were amazing, the food was delicious, and we were seated right away with our reservation. Overall, a great experience—perfect for cocktails or hanging out with friends, and the crème brûlée was my favorite .

THE SALMON BRUSCHETTA IS TO DIE FOR!!! One of my pictures includes it after we have already eaten two of the four, haha. Great atmosphere and our waitress was great as well. We were here for our anniversary and we were given chocolates and a free dessert or shot, and we opted for the bread pudding. I got the lobster roll which was good, perhaps not my style but I still finished it! My boyfriend got the Pappardelle Pasta which he enjoyed as well

The service here is amazing. They’re so knowledgeable and the fact that they have the drink ingredients memorized blows my mind. Alnea helped us and went above and beyond! I can’t wait to come back ♥️ The atmosphere is unmatched and the food is top notch. We came in and the hostess let us know they were full but had a lively spot at the standing area. Got drinks immediately and were happy. Come in and support local

Alena is fantastic behind the bar at Botanist Social. The craft cocktails are top-notch, creative, and perfectly balanced, and her service makes the whole experience even better. She’s knowledgeable, friendly, and keeps the vibe fun without ever feeling rushed. Great drinks + great service = a place you actually want to hang out. Highly recommend sitting at the bar if Alena’s working.

A gorgeous social club with an enthralling environment! The decor is inviting and warm, with unique ornamentation from the counters, to the lighting, to the ceiling.
Everything from the incredibly appetizing food selection, down to the selection of spirits & creative drinks, was quite impressive.
Alina was a warm and inviting bartender, and treated us with such kindness and respect!

Our bartender Taylor was the best!!! She made us feel so welcomed and we had so much fun talking with her. She recommended the most delicious drinks. This place is a must if you are near downtown Madison!!

Delightful gin bar. Taylor took great care of us. Amazing options, definitely ask about some of their special gins and if they’ll make you a marítimo with one.

Exceptional service, food and atmosphere. I came to the Botanist Social for my Birthday dinner with my Husband and my 15 year old. I made a reservation online the night prior, for 7:00 pm and we were seated right away when we got there. The restaurant has a moody, but lively atmosphere. There is a large window at the front that they had open. I enjoyed the fresh air while dining, but still being inside. At the time it was lightly raining which was really nice. The lighting and decor is really beautiful. Everything was clean and well maintained. For drinks my husband got the pain killer which he really enjoyed. I stuck with a Diet Coke and my daughter wanted to stick with water. Our waitress kept all 3 of our water glasses filled without having to ask. She was very kind and hospitable. The waitress and hostess went above and beyond for us. We asked if we could move to the corner booth because it was bit more cozy, secluded and had really nice decor. Our waitress spoke with the hostess who then checked with a manager to make sure it was okay we switched tables. That was very kind of them and I know it was probably a bit much to ask, but my husband insisted to me we ask because he wanted my Birthday dinner to be a little more special. I really appreciated how sweet and kind the hostess and waitress were about it and made it seem like it was no big deal, when I know it was an above and beyond request. I really wish I could remember their names, but they were amazing. The food was really, very good. We got cheese curds and lettuce wraps for our appetizers. The cheese curds were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, they were very good, but could have used a little more cheese. The lettuce wraps were outstanding. The lettuce was crisp and fresh and the chicken was juicy and tender with a delicious teriyaki sauce. We all ate both appetizers right up and were basically full before our food came, but then we somehow managed to almost finish all of our dishes. For entrees I actually got an appetizer, I got the forest mushroom flat bread. The caramelized onion, fontina, and white truffle oil all worked really well with each other. It was delicious and very easy to eat. My Husband got the steak and mushroom pasta. He said he was full, but could not stop eating it because he said it was so good. I tried a bite and it was melt in your mouth good. The pappardelle noodles were huge and balance really well with the pieces of steak. The garlic cream sauce was also notable and very good. My daughter got the lobster roll with the truffle fries. It was her first time trying a lobster roll and she really enjoyed it. She also really liked the fries. I had a couple and they were very good. I had to take the rest of my flatbread home because I was so full. I wish we could have tried dessert, but we were far too full. I highly recommend The Botanist Social for dinners, or even just for drinks. It has a really nice vibe overall. It is on the pricier side, but the food quality, the atmosphere and presentation of their drinks and food justify the cost, in my opinion. They also have a large bar, a nice little lounge area at the front and plenty of tables for seating for dining. I would recommend making a reservation to be safe, because they do get busy from what I saw. I will definitely be back in the future, I really enjoyed my birthday dinner.
