AMBIANCE: We visited in early December, so the space was absolutely decked out in holiday decorations. Even without the holiday decor, the space shines - eclectic wallpaper and colorful decor, unique furniture and lighting that makes for a truly special atmosphere. SERVICE: We had a reservation in the Clementine, and our member friend was greeted by name before we even got to the check-in desk. We had friendly, attentive service throughout our meal! FOOD: The Clementine menu offers classics you can expect to see year-round, as well as rotating classics. Of course, the seasonal offerings caught my eye! Tip: You can get some of the items they offer in the more casual bar in the basement up here! We ordered their famous cheese curds from that menu for starter. We split a wedge salad which was delicious and crisp. For dinner, I ordered the Elk Osso Buco and it was divine. Slow roasted to perfection and falling off the bone, unique vanilla parsnip puree, and delicious coffee roasted carrots complimented perfectly. Others in my party ordered the filet steak which was cooked to perfection, and the Apple Cider Glazed Pork Belly - which was maybe our favorite of the night with its bright Asian-inspired flavors and kohlrabi pear slaw. We were really indulging, so ended with creme brulee and the dark chocolate banana mousse dome. Both, again delicious. Top-notch fine dining experience here - I loved every bite!

He plays the best music and everyone is serious about their Jeopardy Show when it comes on. It's awesome the whole bar plays. It's small and cozy. They don't have food but frozen pizza. Their good. But you can always put in an order through the bartender and get a nice hot mouth watering sandwich from Jiffy Lube next door. No, I'm not going to tell you what they have there, that's another review. The drinks are awesome and the bartender doesn't let your glass stay empty, he's right on it. They have a nice variety of beer, and alcohol. They even carry those CBD drinks and soda. The bartender knows how make lots of drinks and my favorite is a shot called the salted nut roll. Yum They have a nice back room with a fireplace and pool table. I love it that when it's someone's birthday they will celebrate that person with decorations and snacks. It's just one of those places that I usually go ok, I used to go on Wednesday and meet up with some awesome friends. I had to start adulting. I miss them. I go in from time to time and surprise them and the love is over flowing.

I cannot rave enough about the University Club. My husband and I had our wedding reception there on…read moreSept 17, 2016, and we could not have been happier with our choice. Throughout this entire year, we have been so thrilled with them. From the get-go, Kyle (our onsite coordinator) and Justin (a manager) helped us with the process. Kyle was phenomenal!!!- unfortunately, he is leaving for a new job. But both of them were amazing and SO helpful. We chose the Uni Club because of its vintage vibe, the price (the rental includes a year membership and was WAY cheaper than any of the places I was looking at in Madison & Milwaukee) and their flexibility. This was especially important for me, as I can be a bit of a snob about food and drinks. And they blew me away with this-- I had requested that they bring in oysters for me and my husband to share, along with a couple of other special food requests. They also let me select the wine I wanted to feature (because I didn't want Canyon Ridge or some other generic wine like that)- we ended up going with their wines they had in house because they were all amazing! They were so good about communicating with us and working to make the day exactly how we wanted it. They set up all of our decorations for us, Kyle stuck around the whole night to ensure everything went really well and everyone was raving about how wonderful the spot was that we chose. We are so, so happy with this venue and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a wedding venue!!! Thank you so much for making our wedding everything we had hoped for!!!

The University Club…read moreis situated in a stunning, century old, Tudor revival mansion with views of Lake Mendota and the Memorial Union. I dropped by for lunch recently and ordered the $9 Cauliflower Chickpea Quinoa Sandwich (a seared cauliflower, chickpea and quinoa patty with provolone, sun dried tomato pesto on a griddled sourdough roll) with a side of over salted sweet potato fries. The patty had a bitter taste from being slightly burnt and was overwhelmed flavor-wise by the potent sun-dried tomatoes. While my server was fantastic, the pace of the meal moved along at a crawl, probably due to a large banquet being hosted that day. While I enjoyed the novelty of visiting the venue, the food will keep me from making repeated visits.

I actually got to sit down and eat and it was easily some of the best food I have had in my life. The staff were very attentive, making sure me and my husband were well taken care of. They would bring us waters when we were looking dehydrated. My guests told me that the staff was amazing and helpful at every turn. The staff knew what they were doing, were very organized and very polite to all of my guests, they wanted to ensure that everyone was having an amazing time. The venue, also amazing. We had about 155 guests that fit in one half of the hall space perfectly. We were able to set everything up the day before the wedding so we weren't stressed on our wedding day. Chad was very responsive to anything we were needing including tables, linens and made sure everything looked beautiful the day of. We booked out wedding at The Heights about 8 months out from our wedding day. The first 7 months or so it was a bit challenging to get ahold of the Chad but the month before the wedding he would answer every call and email right away! Overall I would highly recommend The Heights to anyone looking for a venue. If you like an amazing staff, food and venue this is the place for you! Chad was very kind and made sure that we were well taken care of!

The food tasted delicious, great quality and handmade. Everything was great! Just be prepared for small plates! The tacos are more like an appetizer as compared to a full entree. Talk about bite sized! And at $15-18 per plate for two bite sized tacos it made it difficult to have more than one plate! We enjoyed what we had but unfortunately left hungry, even after we had an appetizer. The service was spotty at best, it was a busy Friday night. But I could tell that the servers were still trying to find their footing. We were constantly waiting on our server, they seemed overwhelmed. Lastly, I 100% recommend to the owners to take a look at the lighting, Bright white daylight bulbs late into a Friday night dinner does not give the sophisticated high class ambiance that you're trying to achieve. It resembled fast food lighting unfortunately. Bright and harsh.

I love what they have done not only to the restaurant but the menu. Living in the neighborhood, I will be back often.

Went here on a Monday in the hopes of trying out the Cuban restaurant that was doing pop-ups, but…read moreunfortunately they weren't serving that day. We decided to stay for a drink at the bar anyway, just to give it a try. The bartender was friendly and very knowledgeable about the liquors. The drink menu however wasn't as interesting as we were hoping for. We ended up ordering the blueberry mojito and a grapefruit spritz. Both were fine, just given the amount of options in this part of town, just didn't really stand out. The price of drinks was also just a little higher than expected. It's a great location and love the vibe on the inside since remodeling from when it was One Barrel. Looking forward to hopefully trying the Cuban food when they get up and running again.
