The Deliciouser was a surprisingly inviting restaurant with a vibrant atmosphere and eclectic menu…read more The service was outstanding from hostess to wait staff. For starters, the non-alcoholic drink menu was greatly appreciated in "sober October." A few non-alcoholic wine options were surprisingly tasteful -- literally: 1) Serena Mode 0.0 Sauvignon Blanc '24 Central Valley, CL (Green Apple, Peach - Herbaceous); and, 2) Oddbird Sparkling Blanc de Blancs, FR (Green Apple, Lemon Peel, Honey -- Dry). My food was delectably delicious!!! Here's what I ate--and I consumed all of it--every morsel it was that good: Appetizer: Signature Mignonette Oysters: Champagne Vinegar, Herb Oil, Lake Superior Gold Caviar ($4.5 / $50 Dozen) Entree: Pan-Seared Halibut: Night Market Carrot Purée, Pea Shoots, Pickled Celery and Kimchi Consommé. I skipped the dessert though the offerings looked divine (dessert menu attached as a photo), but did enjoy the coffee! My wife and daughter absolutely raved about their dinners -- Grilled Petite Lettuces -- Happy Camper Oyster Vinaigrette, Citrus, Olive Oil Breadcrumbs topped with Parmigiano-Reggiano Night Market Thai Beef Salad -- American Wagyu Bavette Steak, Coconut, Peanuts, Chrysanthemum Greens, Fish Sauce Vinaigrette. Finally, I can't wait to come back because as you can see my family killed the Pistachio Cake (Lemon-Pistachio Relish, Labneh, Za'atar)!

While the dining room doesn't lend itself to a romantic evening (bar overlooking the kitchen, a few high tops and communal long tables), the rest of the experience is top notch. I stopped In for lunch and ordered the ginger fried chicken. A savory flavor bomb, the chicken was perfectly fried and moist and the brioche bun outstanding. I loved the chili crisp mayo along with the house made pickles. I was stuffed but the housemade malt gelato and brioche ice cream sammy called my name. Yes, it was rich. True, it was decadent. Valid, tons of calories. But....so so good. A must try in the land of landscape of very non-original restaurantsrestaurants that seem to be popping up in Madison.

I can't say enough great things about Escape This. I've done somewhere between 15-20 escape rooms…read moreand Escape This has all the things the best ones have to offer. 1. You can easily reserve a room on their website - their website is easy to navigate and gives just enough information about each room to give you insight into what the experience will be like, while still leaving you curious and wanting to know more. 2. The escape room we did was well designed and fully immersive - once we stepped into the room, we completely forgot about the outside world and were able to really get into solving the puzzles. 3. The puzzles themselves were logical, fun to solve, and numerous enough that our group of 8 could work on several puzzles at once without feeling like we were getting in each other's way. I really appreciated that all the puzzles made sense and fully aligned with the theme of the room as well. 4. After we finished, the staff talked us through the room and gave us great insight into the success rate of the room and how we did overall. Whether you're looking for your first escape room experience or you're a seasoned escape room adventurer, Escape This is the place for you!

Since we had international team members, some of the games were mostly centered around American culture, so it made for an interesting game! The game show host was really good! I heard they also had karaoke but we didn't get to try that evening, I will have to come back another time to play that. As for the food and drinks they were great, they had NA drinks. For food we had pork slider, Mac and cheese , bread rolls, and some fruits. Would Be nice to have some gluten free options for those With dietary restrictions!

I purchased a few items because of so many super cute options (it was so hard to choose!) and with…read morethe help of a yelp coupon, I couldn't help but splurge a little bit. The first couple projects we completed were the string art kits. The curbside pickup was seamless and the staff was super friendly! I got home to find the wrong color board but the issue was addressed promptly and Revel went above and beyond to make sure their customers were happy! Picking up a new board couldn't have been easier. Also, when I was at the end of my project and about 15 nails short, they were gracious enough to mail them out to me so I didn't have to drive from Milwaukee to Madison. The customer service here is phenomenal and really made me feel like they cared about their customers. I will be the first to say that I'm not a crafty person but the "Love" design was one I was willing to put forth the effort for and I'm so glad I did. Hammering all those little nails took a little more time than I expected and I'm glad this was a project for home so I could work on it as time allowed. Our next project is the etched coasters and can't wait to see how those turn out. I look forward to being able to visit Revel during "normal" times and take advantage of their workshops and events. Thank you Revel for the at-home crafting experience and thanks to Yelp for the sweet savings! :)

Each person could choose their own crafts and get the supplies they'd like. They have several different thinks to choose from including a decorative tray, a beer carrier, a picture, glitter art, jewelry, etc. They also have a glitter and sequin bar, a yarn bar, and construction paper area to choose your decorations from. They have a bar area to order drinks or snacks from. You are also able to bring your own food in to snack on. There are instructors there to help you if you want any assistance with any craft. Overall, it was such a fun experience! Great for a girls night or for anyone who likes to craft and socialize. I would highly recommend booking an event at Revel!! :)

The instructors/bar tenders helped me go from being a horrible axe thrower to successfully nailing the throw. It was nice to not just struggle through it like I have at other places. It was reasonable based on my previous experiences at other axe throwing bars. This place tops those however with EVEN MORE games in the "backyard". We loved playing hammerschlagen and other table top games while we waiting for our other party member to show up. They have some food options and you can even bring in other food if you wish. The bar menu was awesome and I loved the mystery can option for 4 bucks. I plan to go back and check out some of their other events they have. It seems like a great place to hang out after work.

The owner and her staff were incredibly patient and helpful, walking us through the step by step process to ensure we felt confident with the projects we chose. I painted a large coffee mug for $28 (painting supplies, instruction, clear glaze, and firing included) and we were there for a couple hours, just chatting and painting. It was so fun and relaxing! (It actually cured my hangover.) You can also create your own clay pieces, have a painting party in their Party Room, take a class to learn to throw clay on the wheel (I think that's how you say it), or make glass art -and there are many beautiful examples to inspire you. As we drove home we chatted about how excited we are to see our fired pieces in a week as well as how much we look forward to doing it again!

Went here on a Saturday afternoon, and I was told it was an hour to hour and a half wait. That was fine with me. I spent an hour in the area and then I called to ask how much more time is left (not to be impatient, but to see what things I could do while waiting) and I was told it would be another 45 minutes. I started doing something else, and 10 minutes later, I was told it was my turn... that was really unfortunate. When I got there, the staff was super nice and helpful! However, I noticed that I wasn't given all the info other customers were getting. They were told about things like the tools to make textures and what not, but I didn't hear about it until halfway through I was done glazing. I wish there better communication. A great spot though for a calming indoor activity.

The staff was super friendly and helpful as well. We did the murder room which has various riddles, clues in hidden places, and puzzles. The level was easy but I think we could have done a harder level. We also had a larger group of 11, but we didn't feel crowded in there. We completed with 25 minutes to spare! The phone speaker in the room was a little hard to hear. Some physical exercise is needed for one of the clues. Won't give anything else away, but we had a good time and I'm glad I got to experience Escape in Time again years later.
